So its entirely belated seeing as ive gone years with this problem but...
Well i suppose i wonder if anyone has any good studying tips?
Im plum well awful at the sport and i figure i ought to actually get my arse in gear before i run into important tests in my future.
Not like noticing this in my fifth year is doing me any favors as is haha.
[Tandem-posting! He's making this journal entry while hanging out outside, if anyone would like to answer him in person, instead. :>]

im free around then on tuesdays thursdays and fridays
but thats only cause i just dropped professor serkets class
i know defeat when i see it and shed just chew me up and spit me out
my soul would never be the same again
also btw youre not gonna fail the owls
no way you can once i put you through the ringer
youll at the very least get passing grades man
oh yeah which subjects do you think youll need the most help in
im guessing your strongest subjects wont need a whole lot of studying all things considered
no subject
Splendid! Whenever is most convenient for you then since youre the one doing me a favor.
Ah professor serket. She is one hell of a tough cookie.
I like her style though.
I leave my performance in your capable hands mister strider.
I hope you wont leave me desolate and lonely.
Truth be told im not entirely sure what needs more work than others.
I figure im halfway decent in potions and herbology but i know im plum awful with runes.
Which is a rain pain in the arse given i know were meant to translate a passage into english.
So perhaps we could start there if youre any good at them.
no subject
if we need to do a thursday then we can but otherwise i figure youll need the break from dave striders study boot camp
her styles fine i guess but since she doesnt appreciate a bullshitter in her divinations class
then i know i better gtfo asap
potions i recommend jane for tutoring in
runes im good at but thats probably just because im good at language in general
so yeah we can start there
i can give you some tips on how to remember whats what
turn it into a game fuck the police
no subject
Ill see if shes willing to give a chap a bit of help where hes not too learned.
What a coincidence.
Thank you kindly then and i promise ill return the favor in kind if there happens to be anything i can help you with.
no subject
man youre already helping a bro out
this is preparing me for whats coming down the pike
other than all that how you doing
havent really talked lately
obviously we need to rectify this
no subject
Baking and potions are quite a bit similar arent they.
Suppose maybe ill ask her for a class and try some baking or some such.
Giving you a sneak peak arent i?
Heh.
Ah well.
Good enough i suppose.
A tidbit more distracted than is already per the norm for a handful of reasons but.
Im all for some quality time spent beyond the studying if thats what youre suggesting.
no subject
she definitely knows what shes talking about
just dont let her talk you into doing experiments with potions
seriously
anything i can help with
dude fuck yeah i want more quality time
its like i only get updates via gossip from dirk and jane
no subject
Not sure. Maybe.
Suppose that is true. Sorry mate.
We can work on catching up all you like.
Are you particularly busy at present?
no subject
nope
the only busy im trying to be is avoiding someone but thats not strictly me being busy i guess
where you at
no subject
Avoiding someone? Pray tell.
Im outside but if i recall correctly striders arent fans of chilled weather.
Meet me in the common room in ten minutes?
no subject
im already chillin in the common room so that works out
gotta put the finishing touches on this essay for magical languages too
[And, yes, Dave's lounging on one of the chairs while he waits for Jake.]
no subject
Ill be there shortly.
[And shortly is, true to form, about ten minutes. He comes in with a bag full of papers and books and his hair is windswept as hell, but he's smiling broadly as he waves to greet Dave, coming to sit in a chair across from him.]
Tally ho, chap, how goes?
no subject
Not bad. Valentine's sucks and I'm never celebrating it again. I'm also never trusting Bro when it comes to blind dates. Ever heard of a dude called Cronus from Slytherin?
no subject
I must admit I agree that it's a bit of an overblown holiday, though some aspects of it are a bit worse than others. Blind dates, for one, have never been something I've found to sound at all enjoyable, regardless of the holiday they are set in place for... [He scratches at the back of his neck.] Ampora, isn't it? I believe I know of him, though I've never met him in person.
