Ron, you did good today in Acton's class. Really. She wanted you to take the bait and you didn't, and you're right, everyone knows someone cursed you, you didn't do this to yourself.
But
It's really true that it's better to wait a bit before you get revenge on someone, because first of all they aren't as likely to be watching their back, and second they aren't as likely to know it was you if you'd rather not get caught (and it's always better not to get caught).
So I really don't think you should take strategy advice from BELLATRIX LESTRANGE, honestly. She might be sincere (because I expect she was terrifying even when she was a second year, she doesn't know how it works when you're NOT someone everyone's scared of) but she also might be baiting you, just like Acton, to see if she can get you to make a big enough mistake to get yourself expelled.
