 "First of all," he said, "if you can learn a simple trick, Scout, you'll get along a lot better with all kinds of folks. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view [...] until you climb into his skin and walk around in it." ( Read more... )

My sister had assumed she found a pot o'gold that was real today and she was excited about it. But don't be fooled, everyone. It's just a dupe, and it isn't real, at all. If you find any pots, you may keep it, but I'm going to assume that they will all be gone in a few hours or so.
On a related note, happy St. Patrick's Day. (Xabi giggled right now, so I'm going to assume that's his way of saying the same thing.)

WARDED TO CHRISTOPHER BURKE( Wave your wands! )
So how do you want to do this? I'm a morning person, so I sort of prefer having him in the mornings, which means I guess he can be with me on the nights (except for when I have late-night rounds). And maybe we can swap during lunch, and you can have him for a few hours?
I've started calling him 'Tubby' because of his .. well, tubby little tummy, but obviously that isn't his name. Do you have a preference? END WARDS
All right, all right, I'm sold. I'm not going to have a child any time soon. Can this project end already? My "child" won't stop putting things in his mouth. He likes sticking all my things in his mouth, and prefers playing with my ink pots rather than the toys that he is supposed to have. And he is always "talking" aka responding to everything I say. And laughs all the time. It's rather adorable cute, I guess.
But still. It's time-consuming. At least real parents have 9 months to prepare for this sort of situation.
Speaking of... dear roommates, do you girls want to do some baby-proofing in our dorms?

I think some issues need to be addressed here, in lieu of this morning's announcement. This is, in no way, shape or form, directed at anyone, nor is it me preaching about anything. I'm just stating facts.
With that being said...
- I'm not sure where this myth originated from, but there is no such thing as a contraceptive charm or a spell. Trust me, I'm a future Healer. For girls, there are contraceptive potions, but those should be prescribed to you by a Healer. For boys, there are also potions, but they are designed specifically for your gender, so you don't start losing hair in the wrong areas, have more estrogen than testosterone, etc. (For those who have not seen a Healer at St. Mungo's, I urge you to speak with Madame LaFolle for other alternatives.)
- Although sex is prohibited on the premises of Hogwarts, people are always breaking this rule. It's natural to have the urge to have sex, though not at all condoned. So, therefore, you should routinely get yourself checked for diseases. Not every week or something (maybe when you're home during the holidays), but think about it -- the bed you're using right now could have been used by someone else just last year, for sexual purposes. Kind of a disgusting thought, isn't it?
- If you're having sex, then be safe (aka use condoms, both of the male and female variety).
- The only way to assure that you never truly end up with a baby is abstinence. This may be boring and this may not be what a lot of people are thinking of, given how our hormones react and the way the testosterone and estrogen are running around, but it is the safest option.
If you have any questions, then ask me and I'll try to answer them, to my level best.

WARDED TO TYLER WOODI owe you an apology for being short last night, about something entirely ridiculous. It wasn't your fault that you misinterpreted and -- yes. So, sorry. END WARDS

WARDED TO TYLER WOODDon't worry about this date stuff, or whatever from the auction. I was just bidding to bid, and I seemed to have "won" you. Have a nice day, Tyler! END WARDS

I'm not an organiser at all, but as an addendum to Abilene's post, I vote that all participators of said auction display their talent somehow.
Or you could just dance. That'd be fun.

Professor Longbottom just gave me the best news! The annual Gobstones tournament will be taking place at Hogwarts on March 31, 2023 and we will be hosting students from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. They will be here on the 30th, and will leave on the 1st of April, I believe. I'm not sure how many students will be coming, exactly, but Professor Longbottom said that the sleeping arrangements will be taken care of.
This means, Gobstones Club, that we will be practicing extra hard for the next two months. I know you're all lovely and talented, but I'd like to win the cup back this year. Durmstrang was unstoppable last year, but I know we did our level best. The most important thing is to have fun, of course, but won't it be a nice addition to our trophy collection?
