Goodness, I've been so busy with this whole being a teacher thing, I've almost completely forgotten about this journal of mine!!! That and I think I lost it or misplaced it or something, but I found it in my bag here at home so that's okay, right??

Oh, I'm glad to be back home for Easter though - I think I would've been sad if I had missed out on Mamá's delicious feast for today! That and it's warm here, I am so sick of how cold and nasty Inglaterra is Lent seemed so long this year, I was very excited for her cooking.

I hope all the students are behaving themselves at home and having a good Easter!!!

Both Papá and Mamá had a wonderful time here!! Neither attended Hogwarts so they were very interested to see how I was holding up here as a teacher and what it was like! Thank you to everyone who was nice to them, they were glad to see that there are so many nice English people here!!!

It was also nice to celebrate Día de los Reyes with them even if it was a day late and all that - sometimes you have to make exceptions!! -Oh, Emmelita - thank you very very much for the scarf!! It's very warm and it's lovely in this horrible horrible weather here. ♥

Oh, and I'm sorry if I gave any of you a start in class last week! I've been running late and losing track of time, so it's much easier to get to class as a bull!! Sometimes I forget that I'm still in that form though, so sorry if I frightened you - I won't charge at you, promise!!!

That dance was a lot of fun!!! I'm glad the students were behaving themselves, it's been a while since I got to go to one of these school dances myself~ Memories!

And Christmas is coming up!! It's not too too different here in England - maybe I can make a bonfire again though, like I did that one year. I wonder if they'd get angry at me now that I'm a teacher? Hmmmm.


Also, it's too too cold here!! I should start getting some of the creatures into housing though, I don't think they all like the cold...



...Huh?? I wonder what all these strange entries I have are, they make no sense. I wonder why I don't remember making them, must've done them when I was drunk, how funny!!!

( OOC: This derp has actually been obliviated for just over a week now - brbplayingrisk did it for him sometime during this log. TL;DR - he doesn't remember anything from TYL, and the past month is a little hazy to him. Have fun confusing him. The good news is that he's back to his old self though, so you'll see him being ridiculous and cheerful like he used to be, instead of tired and depressed. )
