Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

Mine was...

It was okay, I guess.

People don't really expect much of me, really. I mean, they don't expect me to have to get a job, you know? So it was a bit frustrating.

Slughorn was there, of course, and he was very complimentary about my performance in Potions this past term. And we talked about having a 'well-rounded' education, and a reasonable number of NEWTs to open some doors later. I told him I was thinking of starting a business, and that surprised him a bit.

I asked Professor Acton to be my other person, because I did pretty well in Charms this term, and wanted to see what she'd say about it, and she wasn't terrifically helpful. I mean, we talked about how Charms could be useful depending on the sort of business I wanted to go into, and then she said something about how it'd also help run a household smoothly, which made me gag a bit to think about.

So apparently, I'm meant to be a mum with nothing better to do than go to parties and run a household and you can nanny for me.

Oh for Merlin's sake. Did they have a husband picked out for you too?

You should come with me to the sanctuary and apprentice with Mr Snape and become a Potioneer while I learn to be a Healer. We can still raise kneazles.

Yes, lets.

Or at the very least schedule another careers advice meeting with Mr Snape and Mrs Longbottom and Madame P to see what sort of good we could actually do.

That is an absolutely brilliant idea. For ALL of us, really. I mean I actually did do something like this with Madam P months ago and it was so, so helpful, but I had a specific idea about what I wanted to do and mostly she just needed to reassure me that I wasn't wasting my time.

Professor Brutka sent me a note saying I'm supposed to come by his office tomorrow. I'll tell him, and see what he says. I wonder if we could have another week, sometime this summer? In between CCF and YPL and all the other stuff.
