_{[Dirk has glanced from his homework to the journal his uncle got him for over an hour now. Writing something in there sounded like a lot more fun than trying to catch up on assignments after missing so much school. He hasn't a clue of what to say, so he just rolls with the first thing that comes to mind.]}


I can't wait for the school year to end.
It's getting ridiculously difficult to keep up with all of my assignments, especially knowing that in September, I start at Hogwarts.
Regular school work is boring in comparison to the idea of learning magic.
Plus, summer will be awesome for reasons.

Are you only just starting at Hogwarts?

Where were you studying before?

[givesyouaboner]

I don't go there yet, but I will.
Right now I go to primary school in Kensington.

[doctorkishitani]

Really?

Is it a muggle school? I've heard that muggles attend classes after they turn five. Is that true?

What are your classes like?

[givesyouaboner]

Yeah, that's true.
Sometimes kids start earlier depending upon their birthdays or if their parents want them to take a pre-k course.

They're pretty boring on account of them being too easy. Every year we study English, math, science, and history.
There's also extra classes like art, music, and gym.

[clockspinner]

hey kid
hows it hanging

spoiler alert
im sure bro will let you skip school

[givesyouaboner]

It's as good as it can be.
I don't know.

They'll probably kick me out if I miss anymore school.
Plus, I still have a lot of make-up assignments left.
If I don't complete them I'll get poor marks.

[clockspinner]

so what if you get kicked out
hogwarts doesnt care what marks you got
most magical kids are homeschooled anyway

[givesyouaboner]

Ugh.
There's no point in this.
I'll just. Play stupid video games until June.

If you think your muggle studies are too easy now, then it may become a rather large shock when you enter into Hogwarts.

I cannot speak for the rest of the faculty, but I at least believe in homework on the first day.

I trust all your school supplies have been sorted out and are ready and waiting for the start of term?

[givesyouaboner]

What's the point in taking classes if they're too easy?

What class do you teach?

Uhhhhh. No.
I'll get them before the semester starts though.
I'm kind of in the middle of a move so everything is chaotic.

[unitedavalon]

Just because they are too easy, doesn't mean there isn't some form of information you were previous oblivious to. Never discount something because it is easy.

I am one of two charms professors, so there is a possibility of you being one of my students in the new term.

I see, try not to leave it too late. Diagon alley can become uncomfortably crowded due to last minute mucking around, especially when muggle borns are involved, apparently they find everything so incredibly overwhelming.

[harlequinzel]

New kid!

[givesyouaboner]

Way to state the obvious.

[harlequinzel]

No kidding! I'm just excited for all the little First Years next year!

stupid 8s

[dou8letrou8le]

Regular school?
Are you muggle8orn?

<3

[givesyouaboner]

Yes, born and raised.

[dou8letrou8le]

What is regular school like?

[screaminginthedark]

youre going to just end up being bored here too

this place isnt a happy fun land where the school work is amazing and entertaining
magic isnt really that great

[givesyouaboner]

Oh yeah?
What's it really like, then?

[plushaeusrumpified]

i hope youre avoiding those dirty journal predators.
the ones that like to prey on innocent firsties.
id watch out.
dont give em your full name.
dont make me get all to catch a predator up on somebodys ass.

[givesyouaboner]

Oh no, it's too late.
I already made plans to meet someone tonight in a dark alleyway.

[plushaeusrumpified]

well fuck kid.
you didnt waste any time did you.
was this your secret plan all along?
use the journal to get laid?
was it one of those sick and twisted games.
where they thought it was their idea.
but really you were pulling the strings the entire goddamn time?
like a fucking strider.

sorry to say though youre a bit too young for that.
try again in a few years.

[chousenplayer]

Hogwarts can be boring too.
School work wise and other activities.

[givesyouaboner]

I guess any school can, but it would be more interesting than mine right now.
It's something new.

[chousenplayer]

You're in what, 6th form?
The newness wears off quickly.
