Thursday 1st May
For
some reason our Flying lesson was cancelled yesterday. Not that I’m excited or
anything… Yey! No broomsticks for a whole week! Okay, so part of me is really
annoyed. I don’t mean to hate Flying. I want to love the lesson, I really do.
More than anything, I dreamt about whizzing around on a broom. I even used to
pretend to sometimes when I was little. It’s just that, I guess, I never really
thought about the fact that I would have to be so high up off the ground. And
how the ground actually looks hazy and wobbles when you look down at it. And
then there’s staying balanced on the broomstick as you hover in the air. And
watching where you are going, where you have just come from, if there is any in
front of you or wanting to cross paths with you and while you are looking for
all of that, you might bump into an obstacle along the way. Then there are
people like Potter and Blondie who just whizz by everyone else, showing off at
how fast they can fly, how far they can travel and how many loops they can do.
I have actually had several nightmares about that class.
Astronomy
is cancelled tonight too. Again, I’m not sure why. I was wondering whether
tonight something special was going to happen in the sky and Professor Sinistra
didn’t want to miss it, but part of me thinks that she would have loved to have
done a class if this were the case, so that she could teach us all about it. So,
I’m not sure now. Oh well, at least it means that I don’t have to stay awake
until one o’clock in the morning.
