Sorry for my depressing post the other day. I was being a bit dramatic...well, because I was feeling a bit dramatic. I'm a little better now.
We left our holiday park, and we're staying in a hotel right now. We won't be there long though. We're moving into a house. It's lovely and near a beach. The only problem is it has only two bedrooms so I have to sleep with Julia. Maybe that's not a problem though. I've been kind of scared to sleep alone lately.
Julia's not doing so well. I don't know if I can blame her for that. She really loved this Rhyden guy. It's bad enough to be rejected from your boyfriend, but to have him try to kill you? I keep trying to cheer her up, but sometimes I think to myself, what's the use? If that happened to me, I'd be really depressed too.
She's put all her books and her wand into her trunk. She says she wants nothing to do with the wizarding world ever again; and she asked my dad to take her out on a boat so she can drop all her stuff at the bottom of the sea. That makes me feel so sad. I know it makes my dad feel horrible too. He loves the wizarding world. Still we want to respect her wishes. We just kind of hope she changes her mind. My dad said to give it a week, and then if she still wants to do it, we will.
How are all of you doing? I've been kind of wrapped up in my own life. Sorry about that.

Wow...
I'm sorry for everything you and Juia have had to go through Alex. It's just sickening for someine to be treated like that. If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know..
Mia,
Thank you. We appreciate all the help and kindness from everyone. It means a lot to us. I think we'll be okay...eventually.
Alex, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Julia should know the muggle world is also full of plenty of men to betray her and break her heart (mum was a muggle, I heard plenty of stories from her and various relatives, and I've seen a lot of muggle movies which seem to be full of rotten muggle men). Rejecting the wizarding world and embracing the muggle world won't protect Julia from heartache. In fact, I think rejecting who you are and what you can do is one of the worst things you can do to yourself.
In the short term, it's downright dangerous. Unfortunately, Julia, as a muggleborn, and your family are targets and in extreme danger. Even if Julia rejects magic, that won't stop the Ministry from hunting you down. Right now, although others are willing and able to help, the only true protection you can rely on is Julia's knowledge of magic (so she needs her books) and her ability to perform magic (so she needs her wand). She needs to practice and she needs to be prepared.
Absolutely 100% agreed with Aoife. Sometimes the easy way out is not an option. All of us who are fighting have had the idea of locking away our power, of running, or of giving in.
Sensitivity is wonderful. I wish everyone would hold hands and play a round of ring-around-the-rosie too.
The harsh reality is every wizard has a stake in this war. Pacifism is not an option.
I am hoping Julia is reading all of this. She might be. I'm not sure. Maybe I should print out your comments and put it under her door? Or maybe I'll just tape it to the fridge.
I have hope that she'll change her mind.
One thing is we haven't had any crazy things happen like what happened a few weeks ago. I mean when Julia's very upset, we seem to be plagued by her accidental magic stuff. But there's been nothing. Is there a chance she could have lost her powers? Well, no....I don't think that could happen, right?
Julia if you are reading this I know how you feel im a muggle born to. I have had my girl freind break up with me to because of what I am. It is hard but don't give up. Ill be ariving any day now and then you and me will have a nice long talk. You are not going to give up on who you are because of some boy. And you have to protect your family. If some witch or wizard comes and wants to hurt your family and you don't have a wand then what then. Think about it.

Please be nice to each other, even if you disagree with what the other person is saying.
If you suddenly feel possessed by a futuristic Muggle, PLEASE go to the OOC section to the right.
