Like I said, don't do it. But it will be points off your house. That's all. It's no matter to me, but I doubt the other Ravenclaws will be very happy with you if you destroy our lead.

Hey, I was simply being logical. So as far as I'm concerned, you just didn't listen to reason.

I'm a teacher. It's my job to teach, not be reasonable.

But in order to teach, or at least to teach well, you need to have an open mind. That means listening to other people, as well as reason...furthermore, since you are a teeacher, you are pretty much bound by the laws of logic, which is what my reason was: logical.

I'm bored now. 5 points from Ravenclaw for arguing with a teacher.
Alright! I was submitted three homeworks, two here and one by private owl. Here is the other one:
The Properties of the Planet Neptune.
By Kieron E'Drien.
Neptune is considered a planet of inspiration, dreams, psychic receptivity, illusion, and confusion. Neptune rules spirituality, and all things subtle. On the up side, Neptune is associated with intuition and spiritual enlightenment. As well, it is a planet of mercy and compassion. The more negative manifestations of Neptune include deception, trickery, deceit, guilt, and addiction. Planets that Neptune contact are often colored by fantasy and dreaminess, and a vulnerable nature that may be susceptible to disillusionment. Here, we find hope that is sometimes unrealistic, a poetic and intuitive outlook, and compassion. Although this is sometimes true, Hope is an important thing to have in life, and helps us through the problems that we face every day, even if we feel we don’t have the means to get through a problem. It’s important to recognize Neptune as an important planet because it represents a lot of the main characteristics of human life, as I believe. But as well, we need to be wary of its illusions and deceit, for no one likes to be fooled or tricked as a person.
5 points awarded to Slytherin for Mr. Chase's homework. 10 points awarded to Ravenclaw for Ms. Ollivander's exceptional homework. 10 points awarded to Gryffindor for Mr. E'Drien's exceptional homework. 5 points subtracted from Ravenclaw for Ms. James's lack of homework. 5 points subtracted from Gryffindor for Ms. McEwen's lack of homework. 5 points subtracted from Ravenclaw for Mr. McFinnigan's lack of homework.
I expect better from all of you next time, with the exception of Ms. Ollivander and Mr. E'Drien. Brilliant job, you two. Good work.

Wonderful assignment! Everyone turned in their HW! This isn't really a HW you can judge, so I've given everyone 15 points for doing it. I won't post the dreams here because they are somewhat private, but everyone should pride themselves on a job well done.
