What the hell was all of that about? I get off work and come back to a whole bunch of nonsense on my journal! My younger sisters were just about to read that ridiculous entry; I just managed to grab it out of their hands. Are you lot trying to get me in trouble with my mum and dad!?

Bloody hell, learn some common sense!

Makara and Kishitani are going to shoot themselves in the foot if they don't watch it. I wouldn't say most of the younger lot are as stupid, and Kishitani's brilliant at his studies from what I've heard, but those two really need a class on common sense.

What year are you at? Must be pretty high up, if you've been arouund long enough to notice the pattern.

Unfortunately a lot of people who have a high level of book smarts don't always have the highest street smarts, or common sense smarts. Life kicking them in the face a few times usually helps balance that shit out quick though.

I'm a seventh year, my last year finally!

Better for that to happen while we're at school than when we're in the real world, people are far more forgiving of your rubbish now rather than later. Hopefully we don't see a repeat of this, or I'm writting a letter to Dumbledore.

I'm a fifth year. Greg Lestrade, Hufflepuff.

I get being a kid and shit, but you can only go so far before it gets aggravating and ridiculous. Headboy spot is open though so maybe I'll run to make sure to keep some of those twerps in line...

Oh damn, I didn't introduce myself properly! My name is Lovino Vargas, I'm in Gryfindor. Nice to meet you.

[di_intraining]

Good luck with that! You ever been a prefect? The troublemakers always find a way to worm out of things. If you haven't had the experience, you're gonna find it hard.

Lovino...You a foreign student? Where are you from, Spain?

[pomodoroo]

I've had family in the past who have been prefects. My family is purebloods so they've always been into that kind of stuff.

Italy, actually! My family has a lot of business and magical relations in England though so my younger brother and I go here. I'm going to assume you however are from around here though?

[di_intraining]

It's a tough job. You sure you want it?

Yeah, I'm born and bred in London.

[pomodoroo]

Maybe....maybe not. It must just be my annoyance at all this stupid shit going on than anything right now. Having control would be nice, but then I'd have to deal with shit all the time directly.

This is my first year not going back home to Italy and I've been seeing London. I've never seen so many muggles gathered in one place before!

[di_intraining]

It's not about having control; it's about making sure people toe the line. You might want to think it over once this whole mess has died down.

Have you gone and seen the Olympics then?

[pomodoroo]

Yeah you're right. Head boy does seem like a hell of a lot of work and I do enjoy my lazy time after all, especially with this being my last year.

I did! My friend Kiku took me, seeing the womens swimming was eventful! I've never seen so many beautiful women in one place either. I think I could get to liking this muggle event.

[di_intraining]

Best to enjoy it while you can. School's a lot more fun than working, I can guarantee you that.

I didn't watch it; I saw men's swimming though. Bloody hell those blokes are fast. How's Italy doing in the games? Any good?

[pomodoroo]

Not a fan of either to be honest! They're both tedious shits.

They're been doing great! They've gotten lots of medals in fencing. I like watching that because it doesn't drag on for ages.

[di_intraining]

Got to do them sometime in your life; can't avoid'em forever.

True; all you've got to do is to tap the other fellow with the tip of the sword to score a point. Me, I prefer boxing. A little bit more action to keep the blood pumping.

[pomodoroo]

Ugh, unfortunately. As much as I hate it, it's true...

I haven't seen that yet! It'd be fun to see though to see them really go at it and beat the shit out of each other. Not sure how I'll balance these muggle events with the Quidditch Cup coming up though!

[di_intraining]

Say, you got any idea what you're going to do after school?

I'll cut you some slack, cause you probably don't know any better, but boxing's more than just two blokes having a go at each other. There's rules, etiquette, lots of training...boxing's about making yourself a better man. Pushing yourself to your limits. Pretty sure fencing's about the same, just that instead of boxing gloves you use the thin swords.

Well the Quidditch Cup is at night, so you could probably watch the Olympics during the day. There's still a few going on, though most of it's already over.
