The Diary of Lisa Turpin

The Diary of Lisa Turpin.

September 1^st

Here we go again......I´m on the Hogwarts Express, sitting with Terry Boot and Mandy Brocklehurst. Quite fascinating company, if you ask me. Terry collects ticket stubs from different muggle movies he´s been to, seeing as he´s a muggle born. He´s currently in the process of sorting through them, and Mandy in watching, clearly uninterested, but for lack of a better thing to do, she´s putting up with the boredom. But me, I´m writing in this book that says `diary´ on the purple cover. But what does `diary´ really mean? Webster´s dictionary defines it as being ` : a record of events, transactions, or observations kept daily or at frequent intervals : JOURNAL; especially : a daily record of personal activities, reflections, or feelings 2 : a book intended or used for a diary `

I guess that sounds correct as for what I´m going to use this book for, so that is what I shall call you for know, until I can think of a better name. Oh! We are almost there! Good bye for now.

Yours until the invasion,

September 3^rd

Sorry, but I couldn´t write yesterday. We were all busy with classes for the first day and such. I do not often know what to write about in such an important book, (well, for me you are important!) so I am going to make a list;

1. My annoying little sister.
2. My hateful, rude elder sister.
3. Seamus Finnigan.
4. Draco Malfoy, my secret friend.
5. School.
6. Home.
7. My life.
8. My problems.
9. My victories and triumphs.
10. Other things that come to mind.
11. A name for you, diary

That´s all now, I shall attempt to write again tomorrow.

Yours until the nuclear holocaust,

September 4^th

What did I tell you? I was successful in my attempts to `write again tomorrow´. `Yours until the nuclear holocaust´ is a muggle statement that Terry uses when writing letters. I caught on and soon began using it. Now it´s a habit, one could say. Well anyway, I´ll go on with my list, as promised.

The first thing I put was; `my annoying little sister´. She is only 8, and her name is Leela. She can be fun at times, more fun than my older sister, Leelee. Leela´s favorite game is, bash Lisa about the shins with dirty sticks you found in the yard, and it bothers me quite a lot. I can´t even yell at her, because she´ll tell my mother. Once I said, `Leela, get that damn stick away from my legs before I bash your ugly mug!´ Then I got such a scolding! I liked it not, and I told Leela so, but all she did was stick her tongue out and ran away giggling. Ughhhhh.......

Until next time,

September 7^th

Sorry about the 2 days I missed, but they were incredibly dull. I guess I´ll continue to the next thing on my list.

My older sister is, if possible, the worst creature on Earth. She is not only a crazy bitch, but she´s rude and hateful. She´s not very friendly. I can´t try to talk to her without snapping; `what are you doing,´ or `what´s your complaint?´ Or sometimes even `what do you want?´ She has absolutely no manners, either! Belching at dinner of even at tea! She makes me rather ill. She´s quite the wanker.

My hand is beginning to hurt, so I think that´s all for today.

Love,

September 9^th

Seamus, Seamus, Seamus! I do love him dearly, but he´ll never know. Well, I do guess that he might know something, Seeing as how Mandy keeps on dropping hints; such as the library fiasco. He was sitting in the library with Dean Thomas, and Mandy and I were as well. She was on my nerves and I made the mistake of telling her so. So of course, she walked right up to poor, unsuspecting Seamus and she says, `do you see that girl over there?´ And he nods after Mandy points to me. Then she goes on to say; `she has a mad crush on you, do you know that?´ And he just shakes his head and chuckles. He´s a first rate chap! He didn´t even make any sort of fun of me, which pleased me immensely.

But Mandy, that silly little bitch, had something else coming to her!

Until we meet again,

September 10^th

On with my list!

Draco Malfoy is a sweetie-darling! He is number 4 on my list, but he is number 1 on my friends list. Of all of my friends, (I have an upwards of 20, so I guess one could say I was popular, but enough of that for now!) he is my favorite. But the irony is, he and I are not meant to be friends! You see, his family is on the dark, and mine is on the light. I suspect I would love him as more than a friend if there were not gorgeous Seamus, but there is, so for now, Draco and I are strictly best friends. He has called me his best friend to my face, and he is wonderful. People say that he´s really evil and cunning, but he´s not. It´s really his evil, rabbit-like father, Lucius. Lucius has big front teeth. Draco absolutely despises him, I can tell. Lucius is really good friends with this guy named McNair, and I know for a fact that they are in Voldemort´s inner circle. McNair is afraid of my dog, Sadie, and she´s a Bichon-Frise! What.An. Idiot. He thinks he´s really evil and cunning. Last year he tried to lure Harry Potter out of Hogwarts by offering him N*SYNC tickets. Okay, you might think this is a good idea, but first of all, Harry doesn´t even know McNair, and how stupid would he be to accept tickets from someone he doesn´t know. Second of all, Harry doesn´t like N*SYNC, so McNair did terribly. Ha! Serves the stupid pig right!

But Draco is lovely, and I love him with all my heart no matter what the people say. I do feel sorry for him. And even though Seamus is still wandering about untamed, I do love Draco best! It is a shame we must be secret.

Yours forever and ever,

September 11^th

Ido not get enough credit! In school, that is, which just happens to be the next thing on my list.

Snape, the potions master, haters me with a passion, and McGonagall is freakish. She looks like my grandmother with a comb over. Oh, the sorrowful laments of a Ravenclaw! Charms and Defense against the Dark Arts are my favorite anyway, although I do rather like Artihmancy and Ancient Runes. Our teacher for runes is an elf, and he is very good looking. I like him a lot. Almost as much as Seamus.

Bye-Bye,

September 13^th

Oh the humanity! I am a Ravenclaw, and we are supposed to be rather clever, but these stupid Arithmancy problems are to hard for my clever! On to the next thing on my list; home life.

Home life is excellent if you are of my family´s means. My mother is a direct descendant of Agatha Gladrag, who owns several, no, not several, hundreds of robe shops around the world. My father owns the Ballycastle Bats Quidditch team. They are would champions, so we obviously made lots of money from that, and from mummy´s shops, which she inherited from dear old granny, who had gotten to old to run the shops. This allowed us to move into Turpin Manor. I never let on that I am rich to my friends and classmates, fearing it might scare them away. They might think I am well of means, sure, but never rich. And that´s just the way I like it.

Yours truly,

September 15^th

My life is boring.....Boring. I don´t do much, I´m pretty boring. I´m very good at school, but not as good as Hermione Granger. I´m third in all my classes, Hermione is first, of course, and I have lots of friends. I try to be generous and friendly, but sometimes I can´t because people my age tend to be shallow. I do have real friends though! I swear!

Yours forever and ever,

September 18^th

God! Nothing ever goes on here! I saw Seamus today, but we didn´t talk. I just sort of stared at him. Mandy noticed and said; `hmmmmm.......You´re right, Seamus does have a hot arse.´ I blushed PURPLE at this and she just shook her head and burst into a fit of giggles. She knows that when I blush PURPLE I´m embarrassed. She just thought it was FUNNY! Ughhhhhh she´s in for a pounding!

Love you lots forever,

September 19^th

Here´s something; Draco has some sort of infatuation with someone! He didn´t tell me this, but he´s been out of sorts lately, and I can tell he´s somewhat bothered over someone. It´s rather funny. Well, to me it is. He´s rather serious about it. He says to me, `now Lisa, don´t laugh at me like that, as it´s not funny.´ I felt sort of bad after that, but he was being a bastard (most unlike him) afterwards. So I don´t feel too bad. I wonder what´s up. Or, for that matter, who´s up?

Yours,
