Dear diary, today I finally managed to block Sev!
My Occlumency shields are finally strong enough to withstand a medium direct attack, there's still a long way to go, but according to Sev, it will be a bit easier from now on.
I'm also glad to stop seeing all the times James punishes me, because he still does... Mum doesn't say anything, but since she left with James, she doesn't say anything…
Sev teaches me many things, and we also take classes together. It's fun to study with Sev. Our wandless magic teacher is Miyako sensei. She studied at Mahoutokoro, the magic school in Japan, apparently they learn this type of magic from a young age because it's more instinctual or something like that. Professor Ryu is also from there, he teaches us martial arts, he says you can combine your own fighting style with magic, but first you have to learn to move your body well, be flexible, and have reflexes. I can't wait to learn how to set my sword on fire!
Writing with a quill is difficult, but I don't mind practicing until I have handwriting as beautiful as Sev's or Mum's, the history is interesting but a little bit boring, manners, dance, and the theory of transfiguration and enchantments are very boring. Nothing beats potions with Sev! Although runes are interesting, we haven't seen them all yet, it's like learning another language.
Draco is learning the same things as me except for the classes I learn with Sev, but he also has lessons in French, Italian, German, and Russian. I would drown in so many languages, but he seems to like it, but nothing he likes more than riding a broom. I also learned, but I don't find it as fun. I prefer reading a good book with Sev or Mum or practicing with my sword.
Bye
