Dear Journal,
First of all, no I am not going to cal you my diary because that would make me feel like a girl in love and I assure you, what I feel now is the exact opposite of that.
For a few days, I'll spend my time bringing you up to date on the environment I live in so that later, when I
You know, if someone had told me a few months ago that I would get into so much trouble so soon, I would have gladly accosted them to the Hospital Wing. But then, that would have given the person to gloat over the preciseness of their predictions so I think this is better, no?
So now, I'm hiding in my room while I try to sort things out in my head and since my brain(It does exist no matter what
So where do I start with my pathetic life story? Oh yeah, the family...
Well, there is Dad who I see rarely and who expects me to fulfill all his expectations though I have no idea why he can't do the same with Alysha. She was his first daughter after all? But I suppose she would throw his words back in his face or something, so.
He thinks it is all right to expect so much from me that I suffocate but then, he is my Dad and I do have to love him and all and really, he only expects good grades; how difficult could that be?
Then Mum...Mum totally wants me to get a sweet boyfriend and fall in love and marry; like she did, I suppose. I wouldn't say that is unreasonable but ain't I a little too...young for love? Oh and there are her expectations; perfect outfit, manicured nails(what's the use, anyway? I'll break them playing Quidditch) and make up(my worst nightmare). I draw a line at the last one but, the other, two, I can't avoid.
Coming on to my siblings...
Things have frozen over between Alysha and I ever since the corridor confrontation. I couldn't be happier about it. Bella told me to ignore her and she always makes sense so that is precisely what I have been doing these past months and thankfully, Alysha is sharp enough to catch on. I have barely seen her since that day and one would think we will have to meet; being in the same house and all but one of the advantages of having a big home? You can avoid any number of people for any number of days without raising suspicion. Jade thinks I should hurt her like she did me, but, I can't. I'm not like her; I'm no Slytherin anyone knows that. So I think this avoiding her will work out rather well, what do you think?
For all this, I don't even know why Alysha hates me like she does. As far as I remember the only wrong I did was get sorted into the wrong house but even Mum and Dad don't seem to be all that bothered about it so why is she making such a big fuss? Or is it something entirely and I'm going totally off track? If she was going to be all rude to me, the least she can do is tell me what I did wrong to upset her, right? Let's not waste pages upon pages on my rant because frankly, believe me, I can go on for hours about her.
Deepika, I can't say much about because I rarely ever see her; she has her own life and a lot of complications in them so I try as much as possible to stay away from her, though it does hurt a lot.
Leela is, quite truthfully, my most favorite sister. She is sweet and demanding and lovely and pretty and...I could go on about her but of course, you should know, she is the one most likely to read this. And she supposedly has a friend who I'm yet to meet; and Mum's already planning their wedding. Typical, I know.
I'm off to get ready for the shop, now. I'll write in you later.
Diya
