Well, it certainly took me a while to find my journal, didn't it? I wish I knew how it got in the lake in the first place, but...
In any case, I'd like to remind my students that my lovely Teaching Assistant has dutifully posted the requirements for your next assignment. Remember to hand it in on the 15th, which is the day before the next field trip, so it should be easy to remember!
Speaking of field trips, I'll be joining you all as chaperon, since I know my way around the Ministry. We hardly got any field trips back in my days at Hogwarts, so be sure to make the best of it!
Why do we have to go by train, though? I-I wanted to meet you all there, but Dumbledore said that the train ride was "part of the fun." I'd rather that than the Knight Bus, that's for sure, but... None of you will mind if I pass out, right?

It's my first time chaperoning a big event like this, should I be worried?

Y-yes, I'd appreciate that.

Date: 2010-03-09 04:25 am (UTC)...Pass out?
no subject
Date: 2010-03-09 04:33 am (UTC)Yes, I plan on spending both trips in and out of Hogwarts pleasantly unconscious. It's better that way.
no subject
Date: 2010-03-09 04:39 am (UTC)And how is that better?
no subject
Date: 2010-03-09 05:07 am (UTC)That way, I don't have to spend hours thinking about how dangerous the ride is; if I'm unconscious, I'll be blissfully unaware.

Date: 2010-03-09 05:55 am (UTC)I mean, I know you're right but... I still don't want to think about it! Just the thought of spending hours on that thing, moving who-knows-how-fast...! I'm starting to feel sick already...
no subject
Date: 2010-03-09 09:55 pm (UTC)Reading a book might help! It'd keep your mind off everything... And you'd be awake too.

Date: 2010-03-09 05:09 am (UTC)I'm glad to hear that! It's good to know someone was worrying about them.

Date: 2010-03-15 09:11 pm (UTC)True enough. Still, when it comes to looking after kids, you always think of everything that could go wrong. I know I was stressing last year there would be a mishap when we travelled via portkey for a trip.

Date: 2010-03-16 04:02 am (UTC)At the very least I'm glad people seem to be learning from all this. Portkeys are right up there with brooms as some of the most unreliable methods of magical transportation...

Date: 2010-03-17 10:55 pm (UTC)Doesn't seem any methods are without some risk, but hey, better to try than live in doubt right?
