I'M STAYING AT GOOSEBERRY

GOOD THINGS

NOT SO GOOD THINGS

+ ESSIE
+ All my new friends
+ Magical Rudiments
+ Prospero
+ I could study Music next year!
+ So many dances!!! ~~And cute boys!~~ ~~wait that's a separate point~~
+ CUTE BOYS
+ I don't have as many panic attacks here
+ I think Gooseberry actually makes me braver?
+ I've been on lots of adventures and no one's actually died!
+ Vegan options at EVERY MEAL
+ ~~My friends back at Hogwarts have probably forgotten me already~~ ~~this doesn't sound like a positive thing~~

- Anon/2, BRoTHeR, and the Drowned Boy
- At least the dangerous creatures in the Forbidden Forest STAY in the forest and they've never actually kidnapped anyone.
- I think my parents still want me to finish at Hogwarts
- But I wouldn't be able to go back just for 7th year would I??
- It's really weird to think that I'd graduate without getting any NEWTs. ~~I hope it doesn't make me UNEMPLOYABLE in Britain~~ ~~thinking about the future is scary~~
- Portkey lag is HORRIBLE
- I kind of miss Hogwarts

LOOK, PIPPA, MORE GOOD THAN BAD. Mum and Dad say it's okay for me to stay another year or maybe two. So stop worrying.

I'm THINKING of picking up more clubs next year because I'm only in TWO at the moment (Choir and Gardening!) but I can't decide which ones to go for?? Definitely Drama but I don't know enough about the other clubs to make up my mind. Help!

NO	MAYBE?	YES!
Boating Duelling & Fencing Equestrian Quidditch Cheer	Archery Event Committee Gaming LARP Outdoor Exploration	Choir Drama Gardening

I'm trying out for Quidditch next year, and I want to stay in LARP. Maybe drama too?

Oh, good luck with that, Will!! What position are you trying out for?? You should join Drama with me! What's LARP like?

Chaser, because I feel like there are more transferrable skills, but maybe Seeker? We have a whole ton of seniors on our team in different positions, so I guess I gotta think!

You think? I don't know about the serious stuff, but it has to be worth a try, right?

LARP is all kinds of fun and you get to build a story through the whole year, which is great!

I guess you could try out for all the available positions and see where you end up! That might give you more of a chance although I bet you're good enough to make it anyway!

Right! I might not try out for the serious stuff but I really love working on scenery and costumes so I could do that instead.

Oh wow, that sounds like a lot to keep on top of.

Beater is the only one full, so I guess I could try that! I'll ask Jeffy and Ree to see what they think. Thanks, Pippa!

Oh yeah, I forgot about that side of stuff! I guess that would be less pressure too?

Nah, not really. I mean, we record it and all, you know? Plus the upper classmen are always there to ask.

You're welcome!

Yeah, being part of the crew was how I got into drama! It's not so scary as being on stage but it's still a really important role. But it's fun too!

I bet you all could write a book about your characters' adventures!

I guess you can kind of go with the flow, too, choosing if you want to audition or not.

Oh man, now I want to do that!

Exactly!

You should!! Maybe it would be a BESTSELLER!

Well, you've got me sold! Drama it is!

oh my god, I'm keeping a diary now so I can do that one day!

Will I get ROYALTIES for having the idea??

Ha. We'll see!
