I'm still stammering in disbelief whenever I hear about the game. A very good game. But.
I still can't believe it.
[SWARM]I suppose I should threaten to kill myself.
Nah. Why would I do something like that over Quidditch. Still I am supposed to like the Wasps.
[Lottie]I'm so ready for drinks already. Is it the weekend yet?

My vacation was better than planned really. So relaxing that I seem to have forgotten to write in this and tell everyone how wonderful my vacation was. Very relaxing, though it was a bit cold. I do think I'll have to return to France some time in the summer when it's warmer and I can enjoy the beach a bit more. On the other hand my mother mentioned wanting to go out of the country on a family sort of outing to somewhere warm. I should wait on making plans until I hear more from her.
I haven't been reading the news too much lately as I haven't wanted to ruin my bright mood. I hope there isn't a lot of bad news, but then St. Mungos has seemed a bit quiet lately hasn't it? Maybe there hasn't been too much bad news then.
How was everyone's weeks? Are we ready for March then?
[SWARM]
Did I see Severus say something about wanting to drink? Who has been practicing their Imperius on him and why wasn't I invited? I'm the one that need practice in that area after all. No one is still grounded, right? Because I could go for drinks. Actually I can always go for drinks, but really I want to have a drink with all of you for a change.
[Lottie]
I got you something in France but you have to go to dinner with me to get it. Name wherever you fancy eating and what time you'd like to have the dinner and I'll bring the present and pay the bill.
[Rita]
Do you think the Minister is sleeping with anyone we know?
[Veronica]
I noticed the flu seems to be going around again, you haven't had anyone puke on you lately have you? I had someone who nearly got my shoes the other day. Do Trainees always get these sorts of cases?
[Rabastan]
You said you needed me to do you some favors. What do you need me to do?
[Private]
It's strange that I feel so strongly toward her. I didn't expect that. I've heard some of these journaling idiots go on and on about people they like, and I certainly won't be doing any of that. but I do feel strongly. I do feel like I want to spend more time with her. I just have no idea how to tell her.
Or if I should even bother.[/Private]

I'm rather excited to be heading to France later today. Even if its raining or dreary I plan on at least seeing a beach. It can't be as cold as its been in England, that's for sure.
[Ward to Veronica]You've been a bit quiet lately. How are things going? I don't think I mentioned my mates and I had a row, but now we're better. That's why I've been quiet too. I hope you're doing okay. I have no idea why I'm still bothering to be nice
[Ward to Rita]I do hope you're ready for this weekend. Did you like the Roses I sent you at work on Valentines day? Technically the rest of your gift you get this weekend. Don't think I forgot about getting you things. even though we're not dating
[Ward to Lottie]Look at all the bloody bleeding hearts over werewolves. They're really dumb to think that just because Lupin is so freakishly kind (its a front!) That he's not a monster. I'm really glad none of us were sharing a common let alone a room with him. Severus was always suspicious of Lupin's absense in school. Just settles a lot of things in my mind.
Are you feeling less randy better now?
[Ward to SWARMWe're insanely blessed to have not been forced into the same common room as vermin. I wonder if the girl that was going on and on about Lupin getting her a cat has dumped him yet. Or maybe she's looking to carry a litter.

Well, I certainly stocked up on chocolate. I've been keeping a bit of it with me wherever I go, not only for my sweet tooth, or because of a particular holiday, but I've been needing it at work an awful lot. I know everyone was/is in kind of a panic over the Dementors, better to be safe than sorry. Stay at home, floo to work, or if you can't floo, apparate.
I've been watching over a friend's cat this week and it's cheered this place up immensely. Thank you, I'm sure he's rather glad to be home now.
Besides that I've been trying to study as much as possible. I do feel like I could use a break and thankfully I will be soon enough. I've already made arrangements and it looks like I'll be spending a weekend in the South of France, hopefully it'll be warm enough to enjoy the beach. Even if it isn't I've promised a few people I'll tell them how it is.
I'm considering this my birthday celebration as I didn't have a traditional party this year, and I'm hoping it's as wonderful as everyone keeps telling me.
I'm really glad I've had some time to go to some Quidditch matches too, as I missed to many when I was in school. But I'm going to miss many more once I've a more steady sort of schedule. Suppose I should enjoy it while I can.
[Warded to Rita]So I've made all the arrangements. Work is letting you off, right?
[Warded to Lianne]Thank you again for lending me Pudding. He only chewed on one pair of my shoes and returned to trying to eat my journal. Other than that it was nice to have him around.
[Ward to Lottie]Still on for our normal this weekend, right? I'll be missing it next weekend so lets make it a double.
[Warded to Evan]Are you still not asking me how I am I miss you I can't believe you still haven't asked what's wrong. Or how I've been feeling. or what I'm doing. Where are you
Are you going to the ball next week?
[Ward to SWARM]So, apparently we're mostly being left out of things, Severus can you fill us in?
[Ward to Rabastan]I require training on using the Imperius curse, can you help me with that? are you not talking to me too
I'm sorry. I know you're probably disappointed.

Is there ever going to be a law past that everyone approves of? I don't particularly like the idea of Aurors needing to use Unforgiveables but mostly because I'm worried about them missing and hitting someone else on accident. Or if they have the wrong person, what then?
But on the otherhand they've been dealing with people throwing unforgivables their way and this seems to be one of the only ways to even the odds. maybe?
This is why I decided on being a Healer. I'm not one for politics. I spend a lot less time arguing. Although a man did try to convince me he was a kangaroo today. I had to tell him to hop in order to get him to follow me.

At least January is almost over. February is just as cold, but it is a shorter month. Perhaps I may just take a weekend out of the country in February, as long as I am not needed at work.
I've just spent the entire afternoon reading. I'm beginning to feel as though I'm back in school.

[Private]I'm glad to be alive. Hopefully I can find a way to live up to his potential. I should find Rabastan and follow him around until I learn what that means. I'm afraid that Rabastan might be mad, or disappointed. I don't like when I shame the family whom I'm closest too. I'm only glad that Father has no idea. It would be a thousand times worse if he were involved as well as my cousins. I'm sure this will earn me more bottom rung time, but at least I killed her. At least I did that right. The last thing I want to botch is something like that.
I don't want to talk or see any of them. Ordering me to use the filth's name. Crying like a child. Whimpering about what we should have done. Well we did what we did, and that's all there is to it. None of them had to be cursed like I did. Because I manned up. Something most of them are completely incapable of. Maybe it's leading my example, but I don't know if I want to lead a bunch of people around who hardly appreciate me, or call me idiotic.
I wouldn't actually kill Severus, but I did laugh at the idea of strangling him with his ridiculous smocks. [/Private]
I find that these days seem to be growing more and more dreadful as the year moves on. From the death of the Gamps, to my coworkers death, to the release of the only person whom they've caught thus far. My mother is distraught over this. I expect she'll be writing the entire Wizengamot. The Gamps were old friends. I trust that there was not enough evidence to make a case, or that Mister Savage was innocent, but where does that leave us now?
And what about Miss Turpin? No leads on that either.
I want to trust the people who are supposed to be protecting us, but I find that I'm looking over my shoulder more and more these days. I did think we'd have something good happen by now.

[24 Jan 2011|06:06pm] |
[Ward to WARM] I intend to take full responsibility for last night's actions and mistakes. I was the one to suggest we go muggle baiting. It was my suggestion to get a healer instead of calling Charlemagne, or allowing Elliot to call his father. I killed the halfblood.
I suggest you all let me speak first, the Dark Lord will then probably probe all of us for the answers. But it is the truth. I killed her. I began this.
Just don't argue.

[Private] I don't know what's wrong with me lately. I've been having thoughts about... confusion over. I don't know. I've been thinking about things that just aren't normal. They aren't normal, and they aren't right. They're abnormal and they're bothering me. I certainly shouldn't be jealous. I shouldn't even be feeling anything. Trying to have a laugh is great, but then you piss the person off and it's just..
I feel. Is it guilt? Is it sadness? I don't know. I haven't felt like this before, I don't think. No, I'm sure I haven't. It's enough to make me yell. So I've decided I'm going to drink until whatever this feeling is goes away.
And try not to focus on the fact that my best mate is mad at me over a stupid girl. [/Private]
The best thing about a long day of work is coming home and relaxing.

Quidditch season seems to be a mite more interesting this year than in previous years. I've actually had the chance to see a few matches this year even with Training. I'm rather glad I'm a Wasps fan, wouldn't want to be a Cannons fan at all. I don't think anyone actually admits to being a cannons fan unless they win a match somehow. Impossible odds really what with Bagman with the Wasps.
Work has been work. I had to take a personal day simply because the workload has been rather difficult, but I was back the next day and I felt better for having taken the day off. I apologize to my coworkers for needing the day at all, but when ones brain feels overstuffed sometimes one must spend a day at home.
I do fancy the idea of a vacation somewhere warm sometime soon. Maybe a weekend in Egypt, or Morocco. I haven't solidified any plans for that as of yet, but father did mention wanting to take some time out of England and mother loves travelling. Perhaps I will speak to them about joining in on their plans. I don't get to see them as much with all of this work I'm doing.
[Ward to Veronica]
Would you like to have lunch with me tomorrow? Or sometime soon? I figure since we do work in the same place it might be nice to have lunch together.
[Ward to (S)WARM]
Well. I'm healed. And not hungover, so much. It's not exactly painful anymore as much as it is annoying. Severus isn't in this because he'd probably take offense to it or something. I'm sick of fucking sitting around and watching muggles take over. So I think it's time we went out and had some fun like we used to.
How about we go out to the country and mess with some muggles? We can get some practice in, which I'm sure we could all use, and have some fun.

[Ward to Charlemagne]
I really need some healing. Bad. Can I come to your home, or could you come to my flat?
[Ward to SWARM]
I need someone to cover for me, or something. I don't know how long I'm going to be injured, but lets say I fucking hate the WCU right now. If I ever run into that idiot again I'm going to murder him.
I want to drink right now. I'm in horrific pain and will be waiting to see if Charlemagne can help me, or if I'm going to have to stun another healer. I can't do this myself, at all.
[Ward to Rodolphus]
You'll hear eventually, but during our attack on the WCU I was less than successful. In fact, I do believe I'm missing skin in places. And I'm bleeding. I used the cruciatus curse against him, but it was not as effective as I'd have liked. He used some kind of whip made of fire, and then hosed me down with water and froze me. So.
I'm down and out or a bit. I'm already warding Charlemagne.

[03 Jan 2011|08:34pm] |
So it's a New Year. Honestly it doesn't feel much different from last year in the least bit so far. Well, except that I haven't seen many Dragon Pox infected patients. But there did seem to be a fair too many people who had too much fun on New Years. Word to the wise: If you're going to enjoy a drink or two do so in moderation. Showing up at 5am on New Years Day at St. Mungo's after fighting a lamp post, and said lamp post winning said fight, isn't the best way to start the new year. For every drink have at least a glass of water. And eat. Don't fight lamp posts.
Actually, don't fight anything. That would be the better idea.
My New Year rang in quietly as I had to be at work by 3am, but that's all right, there's always next year. At least Christmas was absolutely fantastic. Thank you to everyone who sent me gifts or cards. It certainly was a nice day and excellent night as well.
Ward to SWARM
So boys. When are we getting together seeing as some of us were busy over New Years? I've got some things I want to run by all of you, and I'm wondering exactly why we haven't been up to our normal trouble. You can't tell me it's because we're working. We were in school before and that was more difficult then some of the things we're doing.
Even some of the things I do is mind numbingly boring.
This goes for you too Severus. You do keep avoiding hanging out.
Ward to Lianne
How is Prince doing? And how was your New Years?
Ward to Rita
Overheard some interesting things lately... I suppose you've been busy with reporting. But there's been a rumor going around Mungo's...
Ward to Rabastan
I've got a question. About girls. No nothing stupid. Well, maybe a little stupid but not completely stupid. I know more than the basics. Obviously.

[Warded to Rodolphus]
I didn't manage to finish my assignment. In fact, all my subject ended up was dazed. I can keep practicing the Imperius curse, but I need to find someone else.
[Warded to SWARM]
Did any of you manage your assignment? All my subject did was get confused, really. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Dueling is so much easier.
I know Evan is coming over Christmas eve. Xander? Severus? Elliot? Drinks. Free drinks. You can read if you like Severus. I just figured we'd want to get together before the new year.
I wish people were just a little more careful when cooking at this time of the year. Severe burns. Missing fingers. Cuts, and the like could be prevented by paying a little more attention to what you're doing. Lots of families fight around this time of the year as well, let's solve this with words not wands, alright?
I'm looking forward to Christmas. I think I'm finally done christmas shopping.

I have to say work was difficult today, and last night. I have only been training for under a year but it seems to get more and more complicated as I move along. For those of you who have loved ones inside of Mungo's right now, please do be patient with the Healers. They are doing everything they can. Some of us have friends and family inside being treated as well and we are just as worried, concerned, and tired as you are.
I don't know how to feel about it. It was absolutely terrifying pulling people out of the ballet as curses flew around. I've never seen anything like it, but I suppose that it was better that I was there. Even if I'm only in training I did manage to find people and help them as best as I could before we could transport them out of the ballet.
I want to take a day off, just to think about it, but I feel that it's better to continue working as normal. There are people who were seriously hurt and while I can't quite heal them, I can assist other healers in doing their jobs.
On a different note: I'm going home for Christmas morning to spend it with my parents and my sister. At lunch I'm returning to London to be on call should they need me. I still haven't many good ideas about what to get people for Christmas so please do leave me some hints here. I really shouldn't keep procrastinating about this.
[Private]
God I don't even know how I managed to write all of that without losing my patience and spewing out absolute curses. The nerve of some of these people attacking some of us purebloods for simply telling people the truth. The Nutcracker was bullshit with a mudblood in it. The idiots shouldn't gather to celebrate things like this if they don't want to be attacked.[/Private]
[Ward to SWARM]
Christmas Eve at my flat? Drinks, Cigars, Cigarettes whatever the hell you guys are poisoning yourselves with these days. I figured this was the best idea to get us all together in one place for handing out our Christmas gifts, and you know, getting drunk and having a good laugh before Christmas.
Unless of course all of you have other plans.
[Ward to Rita]
Were you at the ballet?
[Ward to Veronica]
I'm so sorry that I left when I did. I couldn't find you until you were already being escorted to Mungo's. I don't even know if you can read this. I feel so guilty about not being there to protect you.
[Ward to Lianne]
I know this probably isn't the time, as I'm sure you're worried about Lettie. But I wanted to let you know that you're going to have a rather time-sensitive gift coming your way on Christmas. Please open it with haste, but I will not be hinting. I just don't think the present would appreciate being left unopened for long.
[Ward to Dolph]
Since I was unable to give you a report on the last night I will give you my report now. I attacked a witch last night. I disarmed her and preformed the cruciatus curse on her before everything got too crazy. I petrified her and left her under some seats. I do not believe I was seen, and I managed to blend back in with the healers entering to help the wounded.
I am still working on my imperius curse subject. I chose a healer inside of Mungo's who has a lot of muggleborn patients and is halfblood. So far I haven't been able to find him long enough for a good attempt. My expertise still lays in dueling, and obviously these healing arts, but I am trying. If I cannot catch him alone this week I will be looking for a new subject.
Do you have any ideas on what I should get your wife for Christmas
[Ward to Lucius]
I'm wondering what you'd like for Christmas, or if you have a favorite drink? Also, is there anything your wife would like?
[Ward to Evan]
Last night was a nightmare. I'm sick of people reminding me that I'm a first year trainee. Rodolphus mentioned it and I kind of snapped. I don't normally snap so publicly, he was under ward but he is still my cousin and my superior. I also attacked someone I recognized last night. I believe her name is April. Does that name ring any bells? It didn't ring any of mine but someone said it near her after the attack.
I'm very tried.

I'd like to thank everyone for their well wishes on my birthday, as well as those that came to the play earlier this week. I've received quite an odd assortment of gifts after the performance and while I'm ready to kill all of you flattered, I will not be taking up acting. I really do enjoy working at St. Mungos, and I'm looking forward to being a fully-trained healer.
Thank you to all of those involved in the activities this week, they have been quite enjoyable. Except for the play I'm still pissed about the dress. I'm looking forward to the ball. I hope to see all of you there.
[Ward to Veronica]
I never want to walk in heels again. Did you laugh a lot?
[End Ward]
[Ward to Rita]
I've been thinking about that birthday present you promised me..

Are any of you actually bringing dates to the ball or are we going with the normal routine? Divide and conquer?

[Ward to SWARM]
Funny mates. I'll be remembering these wonderful birthday gifts when your own birthdays come along.
Has there been any more orders for us, or are we on some kind of vacation? Considering recent events I'd really like to practice some curses on some unsuspecting victims. Please do join me as we're suppose to practice these things together. I'd love to practice some of them on you guys.
[End Ward]
I spent the morning at the family estate enjoying a birthday breakfast with my mother, father, and sister. It was pleasing to see all of them as I've been very busy with work and have not had the time to return home often enough. They reminded me of this and I am quite sure that when I'm free on weekends I will return more often. I have the day off of work and I think some celebrating at home is in order, though I might make a trip somewhere. I haven't really thought of it too much.
I do have to work tomorrow so I don't think I'll be celebrating too much.
I'm thankful that the pox epidemic seems to have slacked off a bit, but this doesn't mean that any of you should stop washing your hands regularly. Just because it's slacked off does not mean it cannot come back in full force. I would hate to return to work tomorrow and find out we've had a record number of new cases due to the fact that everyone decided the threat was over.

I can't even express coherantly how much I'd like one of you to throw me down a flight of stairs and make it so brutal that the healers at Mungos cannot fix me in time for this god damned play. I don't understand this at all. There was plenty of girls out there for them to pick from and yet I seem to be on someone's shit list. I have no idea what my father is going to say but I somehow doubt it will be nice.
Xander - I really hate you right now.
Severus - I can't be mad at you, but I'm kind of irked as at least you have somewhat long hair.
Evan - if you laugh I swear I'll hurt you.
[End Ward]

Is there any way that you can get me out of this? Narcissa seems bent on making me miserable.

I really haven't had the time to write about the goings on in my life due to all of this dragon pox. When I close my eyes I see green and I can feel those sparks. People you really need to remember to wash your hands and cover your mouths. Best to stay at home if you even feel slightly sick. I know I'm simply in training to be a healer but I've seen enough Dragon Pox to last me my entire life. Also, I'm rather sick of smelling mint.
It could be puke. That's what I keep telling myself. It could be puke. It could be worse. I've seen enough splitched kids to know it could look worse too.
Quidditch season's back on, though I haven't been to a single game as of yet. I just get back to the flat and I want to sleep. I heard Puddlemere won both of it's games though, I'm more of a Wasps fan myself. Here's hoping I don't see any of you players rushing through the door of Mungos with your bones sticking out of your arms or anything like that. I should say the same for you fans, riots should be avoided.
I'm happy with the choice of Minister as if he was a bad choice do you really think he would have been voted in? You have to trust your government or we'll end up like those ugly mugglesin more tight spots.
