I can't quite believe it, I've got presents! I've never had so many presents before, I only ever get old socks or clothing hangers! Hermione got me a box full of chocolate frogs, which are super cool since they have healing properties that can be prescribed along with bitter potions! They also can move and try to jump away from you and come with collectible cards, which are really cool, too. Hagrid carved me a cool wooden flute that sounds like an owl when I blow on it, and the Dursleys got me a 50 pence piece, which I gave to Ron. Ron's mum got me presents, too. She made me a jumper, like she had made for Ron's other siblings, and a big box of homemade fudge, which tasted really good!
I got a present from a mystery person, too. It was an invisibility cloak! Ron says that invisibility cloaks are really expensive and rare, and that he would give anything for one. If Ron is true, then I must be really lucky. It came with a note saying that it belonged to my father, and to use it well. I won't pay much mind, as there's going to be a Christmas feast in the Great Hall and I don't want to miss it, especially since I've never been to one before! I better get going now, since Fred and George are already dragging Percy out to the common room.

This Christmas was definitely worse than the last one, but it's still better than any Christmas spent at the Dursleys. The polyjuice potion was finally done, we each drank a glass of it with hair of the corresponding person we were going to turn into, or so we thought, more on that later. Ron and I had a bit of trouble trying to find the Slytherin common room, we ran into a Ravenclaw mistaking her for a Slytherin and ended up embarrassing Crabbe and Goyle, as we were under the polyjuice potion as them. We then ran into Percy, who told us to head back to our dormitories, then Malfoy came and took us to the Slytherin common room himself. It was difficult honestly, Ron was barely holding back a few insults and punches to Malfoy, he kept gossiping about us too.. Well.. us, not that he knew anyways. He ended up not knowing anything about the heir of Slytherin, which was a waste of time and resources.
Remember when I said that we didn't drink the potion with the right hair? Hermione drank what she thought was the hair of Milicent Bulstrode, but actually ended up belonging to Bulstrodes cat. The polyjuice potion wasn't meant for animals, so it gave her a face full of black fur, yellow eyes, cat ears, and maybe even a tail. She wasn't very happy about it, it took us a while to get her out of the bathroom stall and to Madam Pomfrey in the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey didn't ask too many questions, worrying more on getting Hermione back to normal.

Even though I'm getting hunted down by a serial killer that betrayed my parents and killed them for the sake of Voldemort, this Christmas is still better than any of the Christmases spent at the Dursleys! I think this year I got the best of presents! Ron's mum sent another sweater, this time in scarlet and had a lion knitted on the front. She also sent Christmas cake, a dozen homemade mince pies, and a box of nut brittle. Those are great and all, but compared to the next two gifts, it's not as nice. Fred and George gave me a map that told me where everyone in the school was, what they were doing, etc. It also showed cool secret passages, Fred and George told me which ones worked and which ones didn't, they even told me exactly where they lead!
I got another mystery gift, this time, it was a Nimbus 2001! I saw the broomstick model loads of times while I was staying at the leaky cauldron, but I never expected to actually own one! Bummer Hermione wants me to get it stripped in case someone curses it, but how else am I going to play quidditch if I don't have a broom? My last one had been broken to pieces by the Whomping Willow! I hope Black gets caught soon, then I can leave the castle without having to go around fearing for my life!

Of course, Cedric Diggory out of all people would be dating Cho Chang. if I wasn’t being such an awkward dunce I could've had a chance! Just as I was thinking Cedric was more than just a dumb popular jock who’s stupidly nice to everyone, I guess I was wrong about him.
I suppose that going with Parvati Patil is better than being the only triwizard champion without a date, but then again not having to be the fourth champion is even better than any of this
At least Ron and I have partners, we´d probably look like idiots without partners. Speaking of partners, who could Hermione´s partner possibly be? No offense to Hermione, but I'm surprised someone that isn't one of the 4th year Gryffindors even managed to get her attention. She's always cramped in the library studying or working on S.P.E.W.! Honestly, I could've gotten a partner for the yule ball a long time ago if I wasn't so stubborn about going with Cho. How did Cedric even manage to find Cho alone to ask her to go to the ball with him? Cho is always surrounded by a group of girls, even when going to the bathroom! It's ridiculous, honestly, why does she even need to be surrounded by all those girls anyways? What's the point? It's stupid, really. I should probably start working on figuring out what the clue could possibly mean.
