Ravenclaw and Slytherin. It's been some time since I've assigned you work. I'd hate for your minds to wander while your professor is busy with near endless preperations, so I've taken the time to set you some busywork and warn you about your future curriculum.

First years, we will be studying the correct ways to treat and bandage wounds in an emergency. There will be practicals and you will be practising. I trust that the idea of bandaging a classmate won't throw you all into veritable fits of excitement.

In preperation for this I ask, Why put pressure on a bleeding wound?

Second years I'm sure you'll be thrilled to know we will be studying Cornish Pixies. If I'm feeling particularly magnanimous I may set one lose and have you attempt to catch it. I warn you, they do bite.

Third years can you tell me what the Lumos Duo spell is most commonly used in defence of? The answer will provide you with the subject of our next studies.

Fourth years as you've been informed, we are studying curses with a special attention to the unforgivable curses. I want you to name one and write me at least ten lines on why it has been deemed unforgivable.

Fifth years we will be studying the effective use of jinxes in battle and defence. I want you to name a jinx and write twenty lines on theoretical a situation it would be beneficial to use in.

Sixth years it is my great pleasure to announce that we are slowly ready to move on from the theory of nonverbal spells and we will begin to practise them. We will be starting with very basic spells, but remember that they take an immense amount of concentration. I advise that you rest up before classes.
You may rest, of course, once you write ten lines on the importance of nonverbal spells and what kind of things are important to perfect them. For example: To become proficient at nonverbal spells, one must become particularly good at focusing.

Seventh years will be going over theory with me and on Friday we will be having an in-class discussion about the psychological impacts of Dark Magic and curses. It will be a draining class, perhaps emotionally so. As with the sixth years, I advise you rest up and fortunately, you are free from the wrath of assignments.

Thank you and remember to ASK if you are in a state of complete and utter confusion. I would rather suffer through a stupid question than receive unsatisfactory work. It makes us both look bad when I grade you and I do so hate using red ink.

It's been over a month and a half and I still don't know what to think about Hogwarts - it's nothing like how Dean described it at all. Does the house you get sorted into make that big of a difference?

It's a lot louder then I was expecting, more crowded. Not to mention I still don't have the stair schedules down, so I keep getting lost.

The dorms are alright, at least, even if they can be kind of cold. The library is the absolute best part, though. Does anybody have books they can recommend?

I wish home was more like this.

[personal profile] 3potionproblem
In the interest of an unbiased study into muggle behaviors and cultural discrepancies, I require a ^muggleborn female student to associate with me or at the very least permit me to engage in observational behavior including but not limited to tailing, watching from the shadows, and keeping close records on all activities, correspondence, and so on. Do not waste my time if you are already well aware that you are annoying and generally distasteful.

Please respond to this message with your interest. I will select the best candidate once all volunteers have come forward.

Ah, yes. Who would like to join me at the Three Broomsticks for the first Hogsmeade trip? If I'm feeling particularly charitable, I may pay for your drink(s).
Or if you wish to join me at Honeydukes, I'd also appreciate that.
Company is welcomed and encouraged.

I don't think I've eaten so much in my entire freaking life as I did the past couple of days. I just wished for junk food and it was there. I felt pretty lousy afterwards though so I doubt I'll be doing that again anytime soon.

Now that the weird stuff is over with I can finally start setting up guitar lessons for those of you who were interested.

Oh, and Hogsmeade is coming up too. Anyone need a date? haha.

I had chocolate for the first time and now I kinda wish I hadn't. I think I'm going to always miss it now.

Oh my...it seems I've allowed my studies to get the best of me (yet again). Anyhow, now that I've gotten them under control I should be around more often. Although this is my final year at this school, and I know I haven't exactly been the most social student out there, I'd still like to get to know some of you. A certain someone says I should get out more and these days I feel a bit more inclined to believe him.

I left a personal copy of An Appraisal of Magical Education in Europe at the Slytherin's table in the Great Hall yesterday evening. It would not be a difficult thing to have it replaced and it isn't a book I need for any of my classes but I would appreciate it if the book made its way back to me. 'E. Aarset' is written inside the front cover if it makes it easier to specify. Thank you.

If anyone was placing bets on who would end up killing their goat, Mr Holmes is the winner.

I know you're all trying to figure out what happened the last few days, but tomorrow we'll be doing our first bezoar extraction. I don't care if your goat is still talking or you're dealing with extra body parts.


So, who else signed up for this teachers Quidditch match? I'm more familiar with Quodpot honestly.

Slytherins and Gryffindors:
In looking to the year ahead, I believe we will have time for one extra project per year, outside of the usual curriculum. I will be taking suggestions from students for this project, and the student in each year who comes up with the idea I will be using will earn twenty points for their House.

The criteria for project suggestions is as follows:
It must have something to do with potions (I am of the belief this should go without saying, but I find I cannot have as much confidence in every student as I would like).
It should be something interesting and original - do NOT merely look through your textbooks and choose something from there.
It should have a practical purpose - this is subject to interpretation, and I will accept arguments for each idea as to why it might be useful.
It must be challenging, this is not a way to earn easy marks.
It will not involve goats.

if any of the female professors have the time,
I COULD USE SOME ASSISTANCE.
whatever magic has been at work in the school these last few days
HAS CAUSED A FEW UNUSUAL CHANGES
that i cannot seem to undo with a counter-curse or potions.

AVAST!!

To whom it may concern,
We've taken liberties with the spoils of your castle but it is not nearly enough to quench our desires for vast riches.
As such, we have taken one of your fine wenches and are holding her hostage.
If somebody does not pay us a handsome fee we shall be setting sail with her on the morrow

Bring all your valuables to our ship or you will never see her again. (Your bodies are an acceptable form of payment. As is booze.)

So, it looks like Slytherin has taken the lead in house points. As such, I have one thing to say to you all;

Mwahahahaha. Today, the House Cup. Tomorrow, the world.
