Keeping busy

alt_dracoWent for a fly this morning for the first time in some weeks. I must say that while this year has been packed with new and interesting activities, I really do miss quidditch. I especially feel for the 7th years who were looking forward to playing out their final season, only to discover that they'd already played it back in 6th year. Bit rubbish, that. But I suppose it can't be helped.
Seems a few folks are still feeling a bit low that they've not been invited to that Beauxbatons soiree. All I can say to that is: really? It's just a bit of faculty-supervised tea and mingling, not the second coming of the Yule Ball. I can't speak for other Houses, but there's usually more interesting things than that going on in the Slytherin common room on Saturday nights. Dancing in the music alcove, or even just listening to the wireless, along with snap and portkey at the game tables. So if you're feeling left out, just grab a mate and make something happen.
Off to the YPL/CCF Planning meeting in a bit. See the rest of you lot there.

Private message to Pansy

See you after?

I rather had to take on the role of hostess, because I knew the most people there, and some were so awfully shy with one another, or didn't know how to say anything in French, but it did feel rather nice to be a help to Professor Sinistra, and it was worth it to have the chance to talk to some of the Beauxbatons girls that I haven't really had the chance to otherwise.

Date: 2012-01-22 12:57 am (UTC)I was actually trying to avoid the common room, but now that I know you're out I'll meet you there in 20 minutes or so? You can tell me what I missed.
