I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

Headmistress Umbridge mentioned on Sunday that in addition to not brewing potions she was going to find me some 'teensy tasks' to help me be 'useful.'

Apparently they're to be in the hospital wing, starting tonight. So much for meeting ANYBODY in the library. (I got a note just now telling me to report to the hospital wing and to wear something 'suitable for dirty, unpleasant work.')

Pansy?

I'm in the Hospital Wing right now and Kerr just turned Elspeth away, you know the second year from Slytherin. She's crying in pain and he called her a whinger and told her to stop being a baby.

Only Elspeth never complains about this sort of thing, she's usually really stoic.

I'm going to be stuck here for hours, Umbridge told Kerr not to let me go until almost curfew. I'm sorry to ask but it has to be someone in Slytherin House. Can you go to the hidden room and get one of the green potions on the third shelf to the right of the door. It should be labeled 'tonic 42.' If you aren't sure about trusting her, hide it and have the elves give her a note. But I think if she waits she will end up really sick.

I hate Healer Kerr so much and the cleaner he has the elves use makes the Hospital Wing smell exactly like

It's truly amazing how unpleasant Kerr was able to make something that used to be something I'd look forward to all week.
