At least the waiting for OWLs was over. The time had come for the exams to begin, and my attention was taken up with getting the best grades I could, to keep my career options open. About the only thing that I thought gave me any real trouble was Ancient Runes, and I have to admit I was stroppy when that exam was over. Even Ron and Harry noticed. Still and all, I felt a load off my shoulders as the exams rolled on---I'd done all I could to get those two through, and it was out of my hands.
