alt_justinHello,
I say, that was certainly a gruelling first day for me; how was yours?
What did you think of Professor Dolohov? At our table the others were all asking for our opinions. I said I had nothing much to compare but that he seems to set a high standard but a fair one. I mean to say. Assigned seating isn't something I've encountered before, even at Beauxbatons, what. Though I knew some people there who had it in primary school.
I've a feeling we're going to be quite challenged, if the first lesson is anything like the pace he intends to maintain. But if what he's said is true, at least we shan't have to hex each other in lessons. I suppose that's a blessing. Do you think that will make it easier on our Neville? I say, I know Neville's stalwart, what, but I'm well worried about how much he's worried about this. I hope it's more the dread of the thing than the thing itself, what? And that once he's in lessons he'll find it's not as intolerable as he fears. We've each other to keep perspective, what?
I'm working on the first Charms assignment. What about you?
Oh, by the way, I've asked Susan Bones and some of the others if they'd like to revise. That might give us an opportunity to meet without making a meal of the thing, if you follow me. We can always break apart into smaller groups to discuss the finer points. And if not, then at least we'll have a revising group.
