Back to Hogwarts

[alt_draco]

...and a more full schedule than ever. Revue rehearsal tonight, Prefects meeting and Revue rehearsal on Wednesday, YPL Thursday, Quidditch Friday, more YPL and rehearsal on Saturday, and so on.

Fortunately, my journal has additional charms to mind my schedule well. And, as a YPL counsellor, I am well aware of how it behooves oneself to keep busy in the service of the school and the Protectorate. Those of you who find it to be overwhelming at times ought to try on this trick for size: sing or hum the YPL anthem to yourself as you go about your day. All those tow row row row's really pick up the pace and make the various tasks go along speedily, and the lyrics bolster the spirit, reminding us of precisely who it is we serve, and why.

See you all around the castle.

You know, if only there were a way to have my journal sing my schedule to the tune of the YPL anthem. I think that'd be just about perfect.

I'm going to work on it as soon as I have a free moment.

I could fold you an origami dragon that would sing your schedule to the tune of the YPL anthem.

You'd have to re-charm it weekly, though. But that would be a good opportunity to think through your schedule for the week!

(Also, it wouldn't have to be a dragon. I mean, it could be an origami hippo, if you'd prefer.)

You know, I think I fancy a hippo.

Can you guess what colour hippo I fancy?

[alt_sally_anne]

I don't know, what's your favourite colour?

He fancies a pink one, Sally-Anne.

Which is actually amusing. If he weren't being so infuriating in other ways.

Oh of course he does.

I just wasn't going to say that anywhere that Umbridge might realise that I was making fun of her, too (if she gets cross with Draco...well, that's his affair, right?)

Grey. Though I've heard that this Spring it will be all about shades of pink, including, but not limited to: amaranth, carmine, carnation, cerise, fuchsia, magenta, persian rose, salmon, ruby, and puce.

[alt_sally_anne]

Well I do have a nice selection of parchment in numerous interesting colours, including fuschia, salmon, and even puce.
