Amirah growled, digging through her leather satchel. “Third time this week…” She muttered angrily to herself. “It cannot be gone!” Her skirts were starting to get muddy from her hands being occupied elsewhere, but she could care less.
First her fan, then her favorite cloak, and now, the cherry on top of the cake, her dance slippers. Gone. Vanished. She closed the clasp on her satchel and swung it back over her shoulder, turning on her heel and walking back down the muddy streets towards home.
“Mother won’t be happy…” She groaned at herself. Mother was never happy, at least not with her. With seven younger siblings, all of the maternal joy was gifted lavishly on them. But Amirah, being the oldest, well, she was supposed to pull her own weight.

welp, I am now over a month into quarantine. I have not seen any person face-to-face that is not my family for over five weeks. Chances are that quarantine will be extended anyways. my motivation to do literally anything has plummeted, until i end up lying on the floor knowing that i should be doing something productive, but not having enough self control to make myself actually do the thing. sigh.

Snow falling, bittersweetness, dancing in the dark on nimble feet, stillness and unsettling quiet with your mind beginning to become curious
I recently started journaling and for some reason I feel a lot less anxious and I get things done?
Slytherins are the most misunderstood house. And some of us like it that way, but I think that we are the most misunderstood house because we are the most diverse house.
Ambition. That is our main trait, but what makes us so different from other members of our own house is what are we ambitious for and towards. Draco was ambitious to be like his family and earn his place. Slughorn was ambitious into building a career and carefully curated circle of members beneficial to him. Snape was ambitious for Lily. We are all ambitious for something, but the question is what.
We have so many different divisions within our house, so i’m going to give a quick breakdown. The stereotypical ‘evil’ (ambitious for wanting a place), the studious (ambitious for their best education), the artists (Ambitious for leaving their mark), and then there are the ones that are ambitious for who knows what, the ones you would never expect to be in Slytherin. But, sometimes they are the most “slytherin” out of all of us.
What I mean to say is, that we are not the evil house. When a Slytherin tells someone “Hey i’m a slytherin” Oftentimes the first reaction is ‘Wow, I don’t picture you as dark and evil.”
So to all the “not-slytherins” in the slytherin house, just because you don’t have plans of world domination does not make you any less slytherin than the rest of us.
Thanks.

part of me wants to become a pianist, elegant and poised wearing long light pink skirts on a daily basis, and kitten heels, and can perfect my craft for hours on end. part of me wants to become an author who can spin stories from lost things, and snuggle up with my notebooks and tea and sweaters and just dream of worlds that i wasnt meant to live in but i could share. part of me wants to become a rebel and wear black leather jackets while reading angsty poetry, chop my hair short and fight for what matters to me, the kind of person who doesn’t care what others think of them as long as a point has been made. So. I don’t know what I want to do. But whatever I do, I can assure you that I will not be boring.
