Lucky Thirteen

So today was my birthday and it was pretty good. Thanks for the card and pressie Padma! It flies around and around when you let it go. It was starting to get on Percy's nerves so I put it away after a bit. Mr Rosier couldn't send me anything but he wrote in his journal that he'd gotten tickets to go see the Kestrals play this summer. I can't wait! I guess that means he doesn't think I'll be home for spring hols. But at this point I can't say I'm surprised.

And pudding tonight was chocolate cake so no complaints there. Even if I didn't have any candles to blow out. He said I could have a cake with candles in summer if I want and we'd celebrate then. Actually the birthday that should really be wizard this summer is Draco's, if he's still planning to hold a party in June.

Anyway I said thank you over in your diary but thank you Mr Rosier for my present. I'm really excited to go see the Kestrals. I wish I'd be home sooner than summer but summer's not that far away really.

Do you know if that's really true, the story Dames told you? Did she have any brothers or sisters? Because it doesn't seem

A nobody who acted like Parkinson would've been in much worse trouble last year but thats always the way it is. What d'you have against Wood? He's probably the best quidditch player we've got! And he's never said anything daft that I can remember!

I dunno, that's just what Dames told me. But if she had brothers and sisters, they got sent to the camps, too, didn't they?

And I guess Wood's okay, though Chang says he's totally obsessed with Quidditch and nothing else. I think Perks stayed with him over the summer. And he's always seemed a little...I dunno. Parvati says he's a bit odd. She overheard him talking with Ito and Wentworth in the Common Room a couple times, about life outside Hogwarts, and she said he was really cagey about his parents.

Whats wrong with being obsessed with quidditch?

Woods doesn't talk much about his parents but lots of people don't. Parents are boring!
