Dear Diary, or whoever it is I'm writing to,
I feel like I want to scream. It's kind of complicated, so let's not get to that yet. I just finished packing. Tomorrow morning I'll be heading off to King's Cross Station to get on the Hogwarts express, and go back to school for another term. But the thing is, it isn't just another year at school. It's my last one, and I'm not really sure what to think about that. Sure, I've got good grades, and I'm Head Girl. But in the real world, outside of Hogwarts, what does all that really matter? I've been hearing things... even living in a Muggle house, I've heard things that aren't quite right. Strange things have been happening, and I'm not sure I like where they're going. But maybe I shouldn't think about that. I should just focus on my seventh and final year at Hogwarts, right?
Well, I guess I'll just do what everybody else does: gossip, try to stay out of too much trouble, have fun, and giggle about boys. Ha. You know me. Not really any guys I want to giggle about... maybe guys I want to hex, but that's about it. Examples: Black. Potter. Those two drive me up the wall, especially the latter. Why can't he get it through his thick skull that not everybody fancies him, and that he isn't the smartest and most good-looking person in the world? He's one of the reasons I want to scream. I don't know if I can survive another year with him. But hey, maybe he'll have gotten a bit more mature over the summer...? Yeah. Right.
There's something else though, and I know it's going to sound unbelievable. I've kind of missed him. Yes, Potter. For some reason, over the summer, there have been moments when I've been so bored that I've almost wished he was there bothering me, even flirting with me. Is that crazy? I can answer that myself; it certainly is. And it is going to stay in this journal, that's for sure.

I'm excited about seeing all my friends again, Vonna, Annie, Hailey. We haven't seen much of each other all summer. That's one of the pros of going back to Hogwarts - I'll be able to see all the people I've missed. Summer isn't all that great for me. I love being with my family and all, but school is just way damn more interesting.
One last thing. James Potter isn't the only reason I feel like I'm going to explode. I've had this odd feeling, like... like something is going to happen soon. I don't know what it is, or if it's good, or bad, but I just feel like all summer I've been waiting for something, and it's going to happen soon. At school, I'm sure of it. I just don't know what it's going to be. When it happens, I'll know. Sorry if I'm making no sense whatsoever. I can't help it. I don't think there's anybody I can talk to that would understand any of this, so you get to hear about it. Lucky you.
