Finally. A well deserved break from St. Mungo's has been granted. I'm off to Scotland for some time.

I think I should tell him.

I'm thinking of putting in some vacation time for next week. Is Scotland still open to let me in for a few days?

Work never ceased to keep me busy. It's a little intriguing as well. To this date, I've had four patients try to flirt with me, seven younger patients throw up on me, one who thought I looked like someone from his past that was coming back to haunt him so he wouldn't let me even touch him because he was too scared, five kleptomaniacs (I swear I had a quill missing all the time and they would deny they had it), and eight who told me I was too young-looking to be a Healer.
I'll take that last one as a compliment. Even though I'm not a Healer, at least not a full-fledged one yet.
Never really said much here since last month and before my birthday and before the tragedy that happened, but better late than never... my birthday was brilliant. I was honestly not expecting such a surprise. Thank you so much for being there and thank you to the notable few that decided to pull one off for me!

I suppose I can say with sufficient certainty that I've been spending far too much time at work, especially when a colleague asks if I had anything "fun" planned for the weekend and I had to pause for a second to recollect what "fun" meant.
Joking, but I've honestly just exhausted myself this entire week. It seems like once classes have started, the number of people coming in sick into the hospital has started to gradually increase. I guess it's something I should get used to by the time November comes around because it'll be worse when flu season hits.

A week! A week left and then it's off to Greece!
I'd tell myself to stop grinning like an idiot but in the comfort of my room, it's hard not to. I haven't smiled this much since before Ir

Since I didn't have a chance to say this sooner, I really must say that the party was superb. I had a lot of fun, something that it seems I have not felt in ages. Thanks so much for the wonderful time. Especially one in particular
At least a week later, I'll be here: ( Pictures ) It's hard to hold in my excitement. I've missed my family in Greece so terribly.

Never thought I'd find myself saying this, but, um. I have no idea what to wear for Teddy and Draco's party.
And.. yeah. I don't know where to go.

I don't know why I found this the most opportunate time to say this... though I suppose it could be because we're leaving the school very soon. But this is long overdue. Last year, I was thinking no one had the right to know, but whoever works in the Ministry would know anyway that's started to change.
I had a younger sister. I lost her last summer to a randomized attack. My parents believed she was safe at this place, but in reality she wasn't. I left home thinking that I could get away from the sorrow. I thought that maybe my parents will be able to grieve and move on without me. Mostly because I didn't want to grieve publicly, nor did I want to hang around when people started pouring into our homes, just reminding us of the entire incident all over again.
That was probably pointless, but it helped at first. I came here, where no one knew and it was easier to hide it, for some time being. And now I'm going back home, to my parents, to the same grieving scenario that I was trying to leave. I suppose the dread was starting to make it harder to keep myself mum, hence, this entry.
The point of this isn't to make people feel sorry for me. We've all lost people who were very close and we've all mourned. It just makes no sense to fight even more when fighting over something trivial was what caused so many deaths. I miss her everyday and yes, I admit sometimes I get very angry. But I know that there's no point in being angry over what caused it. All you can do is hope things change.

I can't.. I don't believe I just said that.
I feel dizzy

Maybe I've kept it inside me for far too long. I would say that no one really needs to know. But there are people I owe to because of friendship ties. I wouldn't want them to find out from anyone else. My parents likely think that I've told my closest friends already.
My parents... I'm dreading having to talk to them again. But I have to. I can't keep shutting them away, hoping that they will at once understand what we need to do to move on. Moving on is going to be a group process.
Hopefully, they have already thought this through too. It would be easier if I came home to find that they were thinking along the same lines as I had.
But what about now? Do I owe the truth to the entire student body? Pansy and Draco, definitely, but everyone else? I'm not saying they haven't done anything for me at all, but am I ready to tell the world?
No. I'm not. But right now, there are people that do need to know.

I need to speak to you both. Preferably together because I don't know how easy it would be to get this out repeatedly. Tomorrow evening?

Is it wise to let more people know about Irene when end-of-the-year celebrations are approaching? If anything, wish me luck because I've already sent two friend a message that I need to speak to them.
[ end ward ]
First day of June already. And I can confidently say... well, that I'm scared out of my wits on the N.E.W.T.s. If I don't get good grades for the training position at St. Mungo's... Circe, I don't know. There's always the chance of moving to Greece and becoming a Muggle doctor, but my first choice is my first for a reason, of course.

How does July 7th to 18th sound as our trip to Greece? Sometimes this feels too good to be true, but I know you wouldn't back out
