Justice!

I was really excited about the Halloween Feast on Saturday because the Ministry are honouring OUR ghost, the Fat Friar, who is the HUFFLEPUFF ghost! He's getting an award or something! I think it's because he got killed by some muggles ages and ages ago. I don't really understand that bit, but he's getting an AWARD anyway!

But the Headmistress says the Hall won't be decorated in Hufflepuff colours!! That doesn't seem fair! He's our ghost and he's being honoured by the Ministry! I bet if the Bloody Baron got an award, the Hall would be in Slytherin colours, green EVERYWHERE, but when it's Hufflepuff we get nothing. It's just typical. Nothing good ever really happens for Hufflepuff, because when we do get good stuff, like this, it just gets spoiled or taken away or something.

I don't mean to be disrespectful or anything to the Headmistress, but I don't see why we can't have our colours out. We do it at the end of term for the House Cup winner.

Anyway, I might ask the prefects about it and see what they say.

I was down with that flu the other week. I went down to the hospital wing and told Madam Pomfrey all my simptoms and what was wrong and what treatments I needed, but she didn't really seem to appreciate my help. My dad always says he wishes people would just tell the healers what's wrong straight away, instead of talking about little nothing things and then saying "oh, and by the way, my leg's fallen off" as they're heading out of the door! I don't think Madam Pomfrey agrees though.

Well, it seemed like a small gesture that would still mean a lot. All the Houses do deserve to have their times of special recognition. One can be a loyal Gryffindor but still want to grant honour to others when honour is due.

I guess so.
