Oh, I say, thank you. Yes, Draco did mention that one can send a private note, but I haven't really anything very private to say, if you follow me. Certainly not to a Mugg someone like Granger.

I know just what you mean about other people judging one's friends, though. I haven't very many good mates at Beauxbatons because I came in behind the others, do you see, so I had a lot to catch up on and some of my classmates seemed to hold it against me, rather. I'm dashed sorry you've had a hard time of it. Was it Weasley or Lovegood, then, that other people don't like? I can't think why. They both seem perfectly nice.

These private messages, though, are they really private? I mean to say, only you and I can read this now? I say that seems awfully useful if that's true.

I don't know if they'll let me keep the journal. No one has said, yet. I suppose I shall be told soon enough if it's mine to take home.
