You will never believe what I just found out.
Emery's engaged.
And it's not to Jackie!!
And you know what the worst thing is? THEY BROKE UP!!
Jackie and Emery I mean! They're over! Done! Broken up! The idiot COMPLETELY messed up! He just...argh!! Unbelievable! Emery's such a GUY! He didn't handle the situation well at all! You know what he did?! Do you know what he did?! After he told her that he was engaged(!!!!!!!), HE ASKED HER TO MARRY HIM!! Three guesses how he did it. Botched it up, of course. I BET he said something along the lines of "we could get married to avoid my betrothal".
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What is WRONG with him?! That's NOT the way to propose to a girl!! You're supposed to have candles, and give her flowers, and tell her you love her and want to spend the rest of his life with her. NOT imply that it's a LAST RESORT!! NO ONE wants to get married knowing they're the lesser of two evils!! I know Emery didn't mean it like that, but the way he phrased it must have come out all wrong. GAH he's so STUPID! And maybe I overreacted just a little. I mean, I'm pretty sure I kept smacking him upside the head? But it was only because he kept saying the most idiotic things!! Honestly, I'm not surprised he messed up so badly. He doesn't think things through! As soon as stuff pops into his head, out of his mouth it goes! It's awful! And it completely messed up his relationship with Jackie! It might be unfixable!! Which is horrible because they were great for each other! Emery was actually genuinely happy and Jackie's so nice that it's horrible if she's unhappy now!
So, I told Emery how to fix it. I told him to propose to her dad. Only, she doesn't have a father? Which is really sad. I guess we have that in common. Except, well...mine is alive ): Although what good that does, I have no ide Bleh, anywaaays. I told him to ask the men who were most important in her life. Like her guardian and stuff, I mean. Soo, he's going to have to ask her brother, Ethan and Jake. I just hope he actually does it.
God knows what that boy will actually do, though.
At least I know one thing for sure: he loves her.
And hopefully, that'll make things all better.
Hopefully.
OH! Not to self: The spell "Avis" makes really pretty birds appear. "Oppugno" makes them attack.
Useful, no?

I talked to Emery today. Jackie's avoiding him. Not talking to him at all and not even looking at him. Can't say I blame her, but that's not exactly good when you're trying to fix things! So. I think I should talk to her? I dunno. Are we close enough friends for that? Are we even friends?
Well. I like her well enough. And she's my friend in my opinion. And so as a friend I'm going to talk to her and try to convince her to stop avoiding Emery. Ugh. I have to do EVERYTHING! >.<
Wish me luck...?

Okay so! I talked to Jackie today. About Emery, I mean. It wasn't that long of chat, to be honest. I think she was mad at me for most of it? Or at least just mad in general and I wasn't really helping. I found out that she's quite the cynic. Which is fine, really. I guess it's understandable, what with everything she's been through and all. She told me she didn't love Emery. PFT! Yeah right. If she didn't love him, she wouldn't be THIS upset about what happened. She definitely wouldn't be voiding him. They think they can fool Olivia! Nope, no one can fool OLIVIA. No sir-ree. Those two kids are OBVIOUSLY in love. They just need to stop being stubborn and admit it.
As a matter of fact, Emery should have admitted it AGES ago. Like you know. When he was PROPOSING!!
But let's not think about how much of a mess he created then. After we argued a little (can it be called arguing? I dunno. But whatever) I invited her to go to Hogsmeade on a whim, for a girl's night. I think she needs one, don't you? Besides, I sorta have a plan. I'm gonna invite Emery on the same day, only like an hour after. And then I'm going to leave them together and, hopefully, they'll work things out themselves.
Either that or things will get even worse? >.<
We'll see. I hope they work things out though.
And I hope Jackie doesn't hate me after.

So.
Went to Hogsmeade. Met up with Jackie. And you know what I realised? Jackie's a great girl. Seriously. We had a good time for like the hour or so that we hung out. We went to Honeydukes and I stocked up on my sweets. She got a couple of things too. I found out her favourite is dark chocolate and gummy bears. I love gummy bears, and dark chocolate is amazing. See? We have stuff in common. Who woulda thought it? Probably not Emery. So anyways. I paid for her sweets, too. I was sorta...trying to make up for what was gonna happen in advance? I mean, I was starting to feel REALLY bad. I still feel REALLY bad, as a matter of fact. I just...I wish I hadn't ruined a perfectly nice day. I mean, things were GREAT until Emery showed up. I was even starting to hope he wouldn't show up AT ALL. Which, you know, wouldn't have been THAT much a surprise. What reason would he have to show up? None, really. I mean, why would he want to hang out with his little sister's best friend? He has just as much reason as Pierre. Except Pierre and I are actually friends.
When we're not biting each other's heads off, that is.
So anyway. We got to the Three Broomsticks, Jackie telling me that she's the one that's going to pay. I didn't argue, of course. She wouldn't have listened to me anyway. It was a little past five so I was starting to have hope that Emery wouldn't show up. Is that bad, that I was wishing he wouldn't show up? Well, it doesn't matter anyway. Because he DID show up anyway. Seriously. Out of all the days for Emery to actually do what I want, he had to pick THIS TIME to do it? Seriously!
Anyway. So the arse he actually showed up.
I might've snapped at him a little for showing up. I don't blame him fro being confused, but I didn't give him much time to say anything. I practically ordered him to fix things and then...well I ran away. Sorta. I just left, after apologising to Jackie of course. I...don't know what happened next. I left Hogsmeade all together and came back here and now I feel horrible. Seriously. I hate feeling guilty and I'm just so depressed because I might've just lost a friend. Someone who could've been a really good friend.
I guess that's just too damn bad for me, huh?

WE WOOOON!
Today we played against the Slytherins - AND WON! Just barely. If Slytherin had gotten a few more goals in, we would have lost! I dunno WHAT was up with me though! During practice, I was great and everything, but then during the game itself I pretty much SUCKED! Honestly! It was HORRIBLE! I kept letting goals in and stuff!! I dunno whether I was distracted or WHAT, but I just...ughhhh. It's NEVER going to happen again, though. I'm going to practice my BUTT off the next few weeks for the next match. I wonder if we'll be against Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw? Hmm, we'll see. The match is in about two weeks. I need wish Lukey and Rose good luck! I might be a little biased, but I'm totally rooting for Hufflepuff! I don't exactly know anyone on the Ravenclaw team, so... XP
Anyways. I'm bushed. That's really all I can say about the match for now. See yaaaa!

Ohmygosh, guess what?!?!
JACKIE ISN'T MAD AT MEEE!!
She said she thought my intentions were good, although I was a little misguided. Which is fine, I guess I kinda was. I'm NEVER meddling in anyone's love life EVER again.
...
Okay, I'll just never meddle in Jackie and Emery's love life again. I mean, I promised. And I can't break a promise, ya know? So yeah. From now on, Livy is staying OUT of their business. Mhm, mhm. Anyhoozles. I think Jackie and I are at the beginning of a truly beautiful friendship. Seriously. I can already see it - Livy and Lene, besties! Our nicknames even have the same first letter! See, we're meant to be! That's what I call her, see. Lene. I know Ethan calls her Jacks, and I BET someone calls her Jay (besides, I already have a 'J'!) and everyone ELSE calls her Jackie, and she HATES the name Jacqueline (for some reason, I'm not too sure why though?) and I can't be like EVERYone else, I have to have a special nickname for people, ya know? Sooo, I decided to nickname her! And came up with Lene!
Cause, see, her full name is aparently said Jah-clean.
Lean = Lene. Which is an actual name, by the way. Yup, yup. I think it's German? Or something like that. It's just not that popular. But there ya go, Jackie officially has a special nick name! And she accepted it gracefully, unlike some people.
Some people being Pierre, of course. I dunno why he won't just accept my nickname for him. Pierre Bear is a perfectly acceptable nickname! But bah I'm done complaining about that. I'm just going to call him that on special occasionas. Oh! Jackie came up with a nickname for him, actually. She wants to call him Petey! Because apparently his name is "Pierre" in French is "Peter"? Which is weird because I thought PIERRE was a French name? But oh well. I guess not? Or maybe...Gah I dunno. Jackie's the French one, she knows better I guess XP
Anyways. I'm off to do my homework >.<

Hufflepuff lost!!  Poor Lukey and Rose! I bet they were really disappointed. And they lost so horrible, too! Ravenclaw was like, really brutal. Poor them. Not to worry, though. I'll kick their butts on that field and make up for it. Ravenclaw is going doooooown. There will be no repeat of the last match. I'm going to be one-hundred percent focused. No quaffles are going by me this time, no sir-ree! Nothing else of interest really happened. Life has been pretty slow what with exams being just around the corner and everything. I'm studying my butt off because Dani made me this stupid revision schedule that I have to follow. Seriously, she like made Lily put this spell on it that it would start shouting at me to do whatever it is I haven't done yet!! It knows, apparently, because I haven't crossed it out.
I cross the thing out even if I haven't done it to shut it up. It's seriously embarrassing to hear a time table shouting "LIVY, STUDY THOSE TWO CHAPTERS ON WEREWOLVES NOW!"
Dani can be SO annoying sometimes -_-
Anyways. Speaking of lists (kinda), I haven't updated mine in ages!!
To-do list
- Be more independent [...kinda working that?

So. I've been thinking.
Graduation is really soon. As a matter of fact, it's like...a little over a month away. In a little over a month, all my Seventh year friends are going to be graduating. Dom. Pierre. James. Sirius. Ethan. Lily. Jenna. Marlene. Emery. All of them. How many of them am I going to see again soon? How many of them will still remember me if we don't see each other for a year - for two years? Dom and Pierre will obviously remember me. And Emery, I guess. But the others? Have I really influenced them that much? In the same way they influenced me, I mean? I'm going to remember these guys for ever. Seriously. They've affected me that much - and in a good way, of course. I love these guys. And next year...next year is going to be so strange. Not seeing them every day - or even every other day. Even if we don't say anything. Even if it's just the passing glimses, the fleeting smiles, the little wave, the mouthed "hi!". Just knowing that they're there was enough.
How am I going to deal with next year without seeing all those familiar faces? Even the people who aren't really my friends. Peter. Remus. Melanie. Adrienne. Frank. Aiden. Arty. Even people like Rosier and the Lestranges and Alecto and Malfoy. It's going to be so strange, walking down the hallways and not seeing them. Especially the Marauders. What'll we do without their pranks? Any new pranksters will just look terribly lame and pale next to them. And our Quidditch team. Merlin. I can't imagine Quidditch without Ethan, James and Sirius - and now Pierre. We're going to have to have a new captain. Listen to someone else's tactics? Someone who isn't James? Will I be able to handle that? I don't think so.
I don't think I'm ready to say goodbye to them. I really don't. I mean...I'm saying goodbye to a whole year. How many people is that? How many people that I could have met - that I could have been friends with? Merlin, I could've found a best friend who was in Seventh year. There were still so many people that I wanted to get to know better - like Remus. I don't know him at all. And Jenna! God, Jenna. I have a feeling I might be seeing her even after we graduate. But what about Ethan? He's off eloping in Merlin-knows-where with Indigo. Will I even see him again? And Sirius? And James? I might speak to Lily every now and then, but she might get too busy. They'd all be too busy with their real lives while I'm stuck here for another year. I feel like I'm the one graduating and leaving everyone behind - but no. They're the one's leaving me behind. Who knows where they'll end up? In another country? The other side of the world, maybe? And what will they end up as? Aurors and Healers that'll have no time for someone who hasn't even graduated yet? It just suddenly seems as if there's no more time life. Only a month...just a month of seeing everyone ever day. And then my world is going to be turned upside down.
And I like how it looks when it's right-side up a lot better.
Am I being too dramatic? Maybe. I have a tendency of doing that, see. And I don't care. I'm going to miss them. All of them. Every single one of my friends has a place in my heart. And now that a few are leaving me...they're taking that part with them.
What will I do when I graduate? I'll be leaving everyone. At least now I still have a few friends. When I graduate, I'm going into a totally new life, and leaving behind the old one. Leaving behind most of my old friends. Having to make totally new ones. Be thrust into a completely different environment. That goodbye will be the hardest, for sure. I don't even know how I'll be able to do it. And it's only a year from now.
Before, a year sounded like a hell of a lot of time.
Right now? It sounds like a ridiculously short period of time.
So what I'm going to do when I graduate?
Probably cry a helluva lot harder than I am right now.
I'm going to miss you like hell, class of '77.
Don't forget me
 
[/right][/color] OOC: If this entry seems a little unusual for Livy, it's only 'cause I'm upset about graduating, and Livy's my outlet. And not eve that great of one cause she's not graduating yet  |

I'm catching up with all my old friends, it seems. I talked to Lukey today! It was great catching up with him. I feel like I haven't talked to him in ages. And he still doesn't mind being called Lukey! See, that's how big people react to their nicknames. If Luke can handle Lukey and Ted can handle Teddy, then why can't Pierre handle Pierre Bear, huh? Well, anyways. As I was saying. Luke and I got to talking and stuff. He claims that Ravenclaw cheated. As if they could, right under Professor Dumbledore and Madam Hooch's noses. I am surprised that Hufflepuff lost so badly, though. They were always so good. But I guess they just had a bad day or something. Oh well. At least now I'll have Lukey's support. I totally pictured him as a cheerleader in class, with the little skirt and pompoms and everything. Can you say hilarious? I totally thought I was going to get a detention because I laughed, but the Professor was nice about it.
Anyways. Luke has important stuff to tell me! Important "secret" stuff, I think? Or, well, I dunno if it's SECRET, but like it's obviously important enough that he couldn't tell me about it through notes and stuff. So, since it's so important, he wants to tell me face-to-face. I suggested that we go and play Quidditch this weekend and then after we'll discuss whatever it was he wan't to tell me. I wonder what it is. Maybe it's that he has a girlfriend? No, I don't think that's it. Although it'd be about time! That could be said over notes, though. I mean, I told him about Jake over notes. Not that there was much to say about Jake anyway. Just that I'm interested in him. Which I am.
I still don't know what's going on between us, though. If anything. Are we friends? Or more? Or that awkward place in between? It sure doesn't feel awkward, but...I dunno. I guess I'll just have to...wait and see?
But how long do I have to wait?

GAHHH!!
I can not, for the life of me, stop arguing with Pierre!
I don't get it! I just keep arguing with him!!! OVER AND OVER AND OVER!! IT NEVER STOPS! IT'S LIKE A VICIOUS CYCLE! We fight and then one of us (usually, ME!!) ends up apologising and we make up and then the next time we talk WE ARGUE AGAIN!!! I don't even know what's WRONG with him, he just SNAPPED at me for no apparent reason. And I know that's what Pierre is like, but at the moment? I'm just sick of it. You know why? Because this is his last year here in Hogwarts. His last year!! We're not supposed to be arguing!! We're supposed to be enjoying the last moments we have together!!
...Okay, so that was a little over-dramatic, I'll admit. But come on!!! It's TRUE! Its not going to be the same when he graduates! I won't be able to see him every day! I don't WANT to argue with him. As a matter of fact, I HATE arguing with him. HATE it. Despise it. Seriously. But honestly? He just annoys the heck out of me sometimes when he gets in those moods. I can deal with them, sure. And I get that it's a personality thing, and I BET him graduating is bothering the hell out of him and everything. But does he really have to take it out on ME? REALLY? I mean, okay, I get it. He's upset. He doesn't want to graduate. And okay maaaaybe I was being annoying by continually calling him Pierre Bear and...
Okay, I was being really, really annoying since he had made it totally clear that he hated that name. Btut come on!! I didn't MEAN to annoy him THAT much. He didn't HAVE to call me a b*tch.
Okay, so he didn't exactly call me that. He just told me I was ACTING like one.
And then I said he was acting like an arse.
Which he was!!!!
So why do I feel bad...?
>.<
I'm NOT apologising first. Not this time. Defnitely not this time. No sir-ree.
HE'LL have to be the bigger person this time.
Totally.
>.<
I miss him already.

So, guess what I'm noticing lately?
Dani flirts with Pierre.
Heavily.
I'm serious. It's like...REALLY obvious. Or maybe it's just me. I think Pierre notices too? I think I started noticing it like way earlier on, but now it's like for sure. And she only does it when Sammy isn't around, too. Which I guess makes sense but...come on, Dani! Really? The poor guy is still hooked on her, I can tell, and she's not helping matters! And SHE'S the one who told HIM to move on, and now she's FLIRTING with him?
Not that I care. Because I don't. Because I'm still mad at Pierre...
Yeah...I totally am...
Mhm. I'm tootally indifferent.
I still kinda wanna talk to Danielle about it though? Not for Pierre, of course not! Just for...you know...Sammy! Yeah. Just to make sure she doesn't end up hurti...hurting him. And maybe she's just confused. I hope she doesn't suddenly think she doesn't like Sammy, because I honestly like the guy. And it'll be a shame if she breaks up with him, because he's a great guy. And they've been going out for - what? A year now? So I dunno...we'll see what happens.
In other news, I took my first picture with my new bangs! Yeah, I realise I just did them last week and everything, but I'm only JUST starting to get used to them. And I don't hate Dani quite as much for cutting them for me, because they do actually look cute once I get used to the feeling of something constantly resting against my forehead! I'm gonna have to cut them like constantly though because if they grow out too long they're gonna start annoying me by getting in my eyes and stuff all the time. And if I wanna grow them out I'm going to have to pin them back ALL THE TIME. Hmm, we'll see.
