I'll never understand why everyone makes such a fuss of the Yule Ball. I fail to see the point of making everyone dress up just so that they can dance while other people stare at them. The royalty nonsense is just a big popularity contest, it doesn't have anything at all to do with merit, as many of the nominees so clearly illustrate. I, for one, am abstaining from all that rubbish and choosing to do more useful things with my time.

I don't doubt there are other students who feel the same as I do about it. Or are we meant to only write about 'happy' things in our journals?

Or maybe you were hopping someone might ask you out knowing that someone else hasn't already snapped you up.

Stark, I'm a Ravenclaw, hence not a complete idiot. That would be an exercise in futility, now wouldn't it? Just because that's something YOU would do, don't tar me with the same brush.

[arrogantalloy]

If that was true, where's my journal about not going because I haven't been asked?

I've never asked girls to dances, or parties.

[preanimator]

Of course you haven't. Spare me the bragging, would you?

[arrogantalloy]

This isn't bragging, this is just stating the fact.

I mean, if you want me to brag, I can, it's no problem.

[preanimator]

What part of 'spare me' are you failing to understand?

[arrogantalloy]

I understand it, I just don't care.
