How are you doing? I can't believe you got shot! Did you see my article today?!

{/End Ward}



I think I'm still somewhat in shock that all of this is happened, but I think it's something to be grateful for that there were only two deaths, not seven, including the Minister.

Why didn't I beg the editor to let me go today? Why? It was a huge story, and even if I didn't write anything, I could have learned something. It's not fair. I mean, I hate that people got hurt (And the Minister!) but of all the times for me to think, "Just this once I'll let it go." Gosh darnit.

Were you at the conference today at the Ministry? Did you see what happened? This is crazy!

{/End Ward}


What a terrible thing to happen. I hope the Minister is okay! It would be so sad if he were killed so senselessly. He's done a lot for Wizarding Britain, that's for sure.

My days are kind of boring. It's not anything against my life, I guess. I mean, I have friends and stuff. But since I work the graveyard shift at work, it's just one of those things, y'know? I can't go into work drunk, but nothing really happens at 3 in the morning in the offices at the Prophet. I mean, yeah, we have a few things, and some big things happen - but they're not going to give it to one of the junior reporters. I'm not up for that kind of stuff yet, no matter how big Daddy is here or at the WWN.

So I have nothing in my afternoons and evenings, work all night, and then sleep in the mornings. It's not exactly the most entertaining of lives.

But, whatever. I finally bought one of these journals - I had one a long time ago but I lost it, so maybe I'll at least have something to look at throughout the day.
