I remember a day when I thought that we could not even possibly have more work than we did preceding OWL's. I remember staying up until all hours of the night pouring over textbooks and praying to God that some muse of Potions knowledge would come and fill me with the divine spirit of Potions so that I might have a shot at passing my exams. And once it was over, I remember thinking that school would be somehow easier, that the stress of having a major exam at the end of the school year had dissipated, and that the hours of extra work would magically vanish with it. I remember being relieved once OWL's were over, and I remember looking forward to 6th year. That deluded excitement somehow managed to carry over, even, into 7th year, when I eagerly anticipated the start of my final year, which would surely be pleasantly challenging (though there was a growing sadness at the nearing end of my school days.)
I don't think I've been that wrong about something since I found out that St. Nicholas was actually my mum. The level of youth and naivety required to hold such notions makes me cringe in retrospect, but I suppose there's nothing that can be done about past assumptions. Which isn't to say that lessons aren't pleasant, or that they aren't challenging, merely that they have a tendency to become soul-shatteringly difficult, albeit often rewarding.
But if it wasn't hard enough to study before, try living with a one-man-tribute-band. We already know that you are, in fact, just a poor boy who needs no sympathy. All sympathy will now be directed at the eardrums and textbooks that are suffering and/or being neglected at your hands. For shame.
Additionally, I don't care how much fun you think it is - surprise doorway quidditch is never an excuse to throw textbooks at people. Please keep this in mind in the future to avoid another tragic incident such as the one that occurred yesterday involving a first year, a History of Magic text, and a concussion.

I wish I could stand that tall and I wish that I didn't care at all but there's misery in eternity ( but I know there is time for us )

Cemeteries have always had a lure for me. They are well kept, free from ambiguity, logical, virile, and alive. In cemeteries you can summon up courage and arrive at decisions, in cemeteries life takes on distinct contours—I am not referring to the borders of the graves—and if you will, a meaning. Gunter Grass. The Tin Drum.

To be capable of everything and do justice to everything, one certainly does not need less spiritual force and èlan and warmth, but more. What you call passion is not spiritual force, but friction between the soul and the outside world. Where passion dominates, that does not signify the presence of greater desire and ambition, but rather the misdirection of these qualities toward an isolated and false goal, with a consequent tension and sultriness in the atmosphere. Those who direct the maximum force of their desires toward the center, toward true being, toward perfection, seem quieter than the passionate souls because the flame of their fervor cannot always be seen.
