Well I didnt win the chess tourney but I didn't think I was going to. I did better than I thought anyway. I can't believe I beat Patil (the Ravenclaw one).
How much have people been revising for that Potions test?
I've been revising rather a lot--not as much as Ernie though--cos potions is my worst subject and I really don't want to have to show Mum and Dad a poor mark.
I've been revising some but Draco and Pansy are both better at Potions than me, if anyone's going to win the points for Slytherin House I reckon it'll be one of them.
Also the problem with revising is that I can already remember what pickled beetle eyes are for and what powdered asphodel smells like and so on. It's the part where you actually make the potions I sometimes have trouble with, and I don't know how I'd revise for that, knock on Professor Slughorn's door and ask to borrow the potions classroom some evening for extra practise?
I've been working on it every night. Some nights more than others. But now the chess tournament is done, I plan to really get down to it. You're welcome to join me if you like. I'm pretty good at potions.
