We got a request to join the community from a padfoot_07 but there was no application. Does anyone have any idea who this is?

Well, Christmas time has come again. I'm excited, I suppose. It will be nice to have a break from classes but I don't know how much I'm looking forward to the "festivites". Especially this ball. True, dress robes are always nice and I'll have a good time with my friends. But I'm not that fond of mingling. I don't have a date either. That doesn't really make a difference though. I suppose if someone asked me, I'd say yes. But there are more important things to worry about. Like my father's situation...

You'll all have to excuse my prolonged absence, both from these journals and from school. I have been terribly ill since the beginning of term. Luckily enough, Madam Pomfrey has managed to nurse me back to my usual only slightly sickly self. She says that as long as I check in with her each night, I'll be able to attend classes and sleep in my dorm again.

So for those of you who noticed my absence, I'm glad to be back.

This summer heat is just unbearable. It doesn't help, of course, that my family seems fond of constantly quarreling wherever they go.

My mother has an extensive list of balls and parties planned for the remainder of the summer, as well as a just-as-extensive list of suitors for me. Luckily, I can lock the door to my wing of the house, and, just as luckily, I'm the only one with the key.

I'll be able to work on my tan from the roof, and maybe pretend I'm back in Greece. Or at least at Hogwarts. Anything must be better than this dreadful circle of appointments and parties.
