Well, I've been making note cards with the ingredients on one side and the brewing instruction on the other.
Did Professor Slughorn tell you that the Potions classroom's available some nights for extra revising? He told us, but you have to have a NEWT-level student if he's not there himself.
Yeah, that's what I was saying earlier, Sals, that it's not. And the thing is...ugh, you'll get cross again when I say this but look: You can't start thinking you're protected just because you've got powerful mates.
I thought Teds was a mate. Well, you see how that worked out. And I know you think they'll stand by you no matter what but you don't know that, not for sure. Not if it got...really bad.
If it's a choice between you and getting chucked out of their families or something, how do you know what they'll choose?
See, this is exactly the sort of thing I meant when I said you don't trust me. You don't trust my judgment. You don't trust that I don't take risks for stupid reasons.
My point is you're as Slytherin as they come. Fine. It's all very well for you, then, since you've got a rich, influential bestie who apparently (according to you) shall obviously turn her back on everything that makes her important and safe in order to protect you?

What did you do in Creatures?

How have you been revising Potions? That's the OWL I'm most worried about.

He wasn't a friend like Pansy.

Well, lucky you.
You know what? Just forget it.
