Happy Birthday to Me
Jul. 31st, 2009 09:20 amWell its my birthday. Hooray for me I suppose. I'm twelve years old today.
Theres lots of things going on out in the street of course for Freedom Day, and there are a few things going on here at Buckingham, inside the gates I mean. Father gave me loads of pressies and so did other people. I havent gotten one from anyone at school, but maybe they were counting on their parents giving me one. Not even Draco.
To-day Im going to help Father give his address over the wireless, I have some things Im supposed to say, and then there's supper with some people and I suppose I'll see Draco then which is good. Even if I am a little mad at him. Nobody has owled me or anything. I would have thought he would have. Or something anyway, a fire call or come along with his dad, so I was able to see him I mean.
But I'm twelve today and I got a new set of Quidditch balls and a broom-polishing kit and a new trunk that's ever so nice, and a lot of jewellry that Im not allowed to wear yet till Im older. And is kind of poncey anyway. And some sets of dress robes including the ones Im going to wear tonight and some old books that are very rare and ought to be in the Restricted section some of which I am allowed to read. And I have been giving every mudblood I see the day off because Father says it's good to be generous on Freedom Day and my birthday especially, and he told me that it was alright that I did that, because it showed I wasnt unreasonable. So happy birthday to me.
