You may be right about Mustinal. He is like Binns, rather, only he can't drift through walls, which made Binns the more exciting of the two. And Binns didn't reek of cigars.
But to tell truth, I quite enjoyed revising for OWLs and NEWTs: I loved combing back through all the material and designing ways to sort it in my head so I could remember each bit of it quickly. You'll be surprised, I think, how really wonderful it feels to prepare for exams. Especially while everyone else and their familiars whinge on about how overwhelmed they are!
About the tournament, though, I completely agree that the most interesting part will be meeting the students from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. That will be so enriching.
But the best of it is that you'll meet a whole new set of boys you'd never have met any other way. I expect you'll find the French and Bulgarians very much more interesting than the boys you've known for ages.
Meeting strangers is really thrilling, I think. Mind you, I've only had a few chances and all since I've begun working, but it's a treat when it happens.
