Salutations de New York!
I have to say, I'm a little overwhelmed. I feel like everything is moving so fast, but this city is just...magnifique!
Sorry, I've been hanging around a rather French crowd as of late, it's hard not to slip into old habits. I thought speaking French would be like riding a bike, but I'm definitely glad I decided to brush up on the language before heading over there. I'm the odd man out, seeing how I wasn't born in the country, but my team has been very kind and patient with me.
Team France is giving it all we've got during our training sessions, I can't wait to see our competition. I hear Italy is going to bring some fierce competition, though I know there are going to be some Arrows out there, scattered about. They're going to be the ones I watch out for. Perhaps that's just me being biased, but we are champions, after all.
Yeah, there's never a bad time to slip that into conversation.
VIVE LA FRANCE! |

Big game, tomorrow. Been preparing all year for this.
Totally freaking out. I don't know how I'm going to sleep tonight.
I want that cup more than anything. Watch out, Wasps. |

If anyone needs me, I'll be at Mungo's.
Apparently I passed out in Diagon Alley on the sidewalk. So now not only do I have a fever bad enough to make me lose consciousness, but a nice bruise to remember my fall by.
Never passed out before while I was still sober. Everything went white and purple.
I don't even know if I'm making any sense. |

All I want to do is curl up in bed and sleep for days....
These upcoming holidays are all about family. I hate it.
I always miss them so much at this time of year....
Practices have been taking their toll on me lately. |

I'm feeling exceptionally carnivorous tonight.
I'd like a hamburger, with thick slices of bacon, and french fries on the side, with a lot of barbecue sauce.
It may be a heart attack on a plate, but it tastes too good for me to care. Besides, I have Echo here to eat whatever is left.
Some company might also be nice - other than that of my dog, that is.
It's when I say things like that that I realize that I have no social life. Maybe I should trade in the dog for 50 bloody cats. |

I got stuck on a crowded elevator today in London.
I nearly started climbing the bloody walls. I didn't even mean to get on the damn thing, but I got caught in the middle of a fast moving herd, and got crammed into the back. The doors shut, and there were too many people to push through, and before we even got to the first floor below us, the thing stalled for about 3 minutes.
I'm pretty sure I knocked over an elderly woman and a little boy on my way out of there. I feel bad about it in retrospect, but...Christ.
This is why I prefer the Quidditch Pitch - wide, open spaces with no walls that feel like they're closing in on you. |

So, I hear Montrose is supposed to be much different from France.
Glad to hear it. I've been stuck in that stuffy country for far too long. Besides, the chicks on my old team didn't know the first thing about competition.
Finally, a chance to play with the big boys. |
