'And, like a complete prat, I followed them' -- Ginny a pushover?? with 6 older brothers?
Well, the twins sound like thoroughly spoiled brats who need to be put in their place. Sounds like a job for another set of twins
Is Gabrielle any relation to Marie 'Let them eat cake' Antionette?
I can hardly wait for the next chapter. These twins sound absolutely awful, especially if they run around Hogwarts with Romilda Vane! I feel Ginny's mounting frustration and despair as she tells her tales and her last "wail" of "what am I going to do?" was a perfect way to end this particular chapter. I hope the next installment isn't far off because I am really looking forward to it.

Thanks for both your reviews! I'm glad you liked the last bit - I have the story posted on another site, and someone there complained that that part wasn't very "Ginny", so it means a lot that you liked it.
Oh my gosh, this is great! I love it--it's so hilarious. You write Ginny's thoughts exactly the way I picture her personality to be: very spunky, sarcastic, sort of rough-ish like her brothers. Yeah, this is definately an excellent story. Can't wait for an update! (I'm adding you to my author update list, so I'll know when you do!)
Great fun thus far. Gotta love the obnoxious relatives - how come *they* never move to Singapore or Australia or other places a good long way away? The Delacours sound like fun too. KUTGW, update soon.

Life would be so much easier, huh? Anyways, thanks for the review! Will do...
I am really lovin' this so far!! The one thing I really hope for is that Ginny gets to pick her own dress robes... I really don;t think I can take another fic where she ends up wearing ghastly robes that her grandmother would wear.
Ok fine, maybe there aren't that many fics with Fugly!robes out there, but still. Might as well give her one thing to enjoy in this wedding!
Anyways, this fic is le amazing, and I absolutely love the wit and humor!
Geez, poor Ginny! If I was in this situation, I'd move to a tent in the yard. It's not gooing to get any better for her, is it? maybe a tent in the wods. . .
This is a good beginning, I can see Ginny huffing around the house, rolling her eyes and giving everyone scathing glances. I think Ginny might swear a bit, but I think that people who might wear verbally also might not do it in writing. I like this a lot!
Ginny's summer only seems to be getting worse, and Harry hasn't even arrived yet. The girl needs an outlet or she's going to blow! Can't wait to see what happens next chapter.
Do girls really write stuff like that in diaries? I wonder. Having had two sisters, you would think I would know, but nope. Never touched their diaries. I enjoyed life a little too much to want to do something like that. After reading these two chapters, now I wonder what they would have said about me. Scary. Great story so far. Very educational.

lol Yeah I can see your point - probably not the wisest of ideas... Thanks for the review!
I like it. Very funny in my mind. I can't wait 'til Harry, Ron, and Hermione come home for the wedding. Well, mostly Harry, but I think you get my point. Keep it up. Update soon!

Thanks for reviewing! Harry should be making an appearance shortly...
Can't wait to see where you go with this, sweety_sorbet. I love being inside Ginny's head. She's so fiesty and funny. I'm eagerly awaiting the moment when Harry shows up at the Burrow! It was my pleasure to beta this for you ... I'm looking forward to the rest! Great work!
