WELCOME, One and all, old and new, old and young, to the new and improved

HUFFLEPUFF HOUSE!

:notworthy :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy

This is great. A little intro for those who don't know... Houses are places for everyone to talk about everything and anything! So enjoy! We a have a pool, and a fair, and a barbecue, and of cours, loads of Butterbeer!

yey!

Swendula

Hugs Fleur

Take a dip in the pool, with twenty taps of varied and odd use, or lounge beside it on one of the pool chairs...

Enjoy some of Ced's barbecue out on the deck...

Take in a film in one of our two state-of-the-art cimemas...

All in all, have fun, and be sure not to sit on one of the house cats! ;)

Fleur
09-05-2002, 05:55 PM
Oh yes! We have many. My little rascal in lucy!

Cedric's is Merche, Swen's is Buttons and Cookie...

I can't remember anyone else! Post them here! We badgers are surprisingly Cat Friendly!



Lucy and merche chase a mouse around the skirting board while buttons sleeps by the fire

Hello ! Thanks to Fleur I finally managed to find my way back. My cat's Ci, but she's old and fat so she doesn't do very much.

Remus wanders round, then grabs a ton of food from the barbeque

Bridget Chubb
09-05-2002, 10:22 PM
I never got around to joining one of the houses at the old board.:(

So here I am now!:D

Oh, what cute kitties.:)

Swendula
09-06-2002, 02:13 AM
Hiya Bridget, and welcome to the house!

Glad to see you made it Remus. Ci can hang out with Buttons, he's old, fat, and lazy too :D

Swen settles on one of the lounge chairs and takes a nap. It's been a busy day! :sleep:
Tomorrow I will post pics of my kitties :)

Fleur
09-06-2002, 12:57 PM
I also have a new Rat, Tybalt, although I'm not sure how well he'd get on with the cats! :eek:

Ugh it was my first day back at school today! And in honor, we stole the school sign and put it in my best friends front garden. fun

Remus
09-06-2002, 07:29 PM
Wohoo, well I survived my first day back without too much excitement (well, it's not as if I was expecting any) so I decided to buy a whole load of chocolate and do nothing for the rest of the evening, just to reward myself (quite what for I don't know, but I did anyway) :D

Swendula
09-07-2002, 02:17 AM
Remus, any excuse to eat chocolate is a good excuse :D

With that, and a wave of her wand, chocolatey goodies appear all around the common room

It seems a little...empty in here :( I hope more people find their way here soon.

Mellon
09-07-2002, 12:23 PM
Glad to be back :)

Swendula
09-07-2002, 01:30 PM
Hugs Mellon
Glad to see you here! :)

Bridget Chubb
09-07-2002, 01:46 PM
Hi, Mellon!:D

Bridget eats some chocolate

Remus
09-07-2002, 02:16 PM
Yay, good to see you again, Mellon :)

Remus spots the chocolate

I'll be right back :D

Rosie
09-07-2002, 02:24 PM
Allo :jawdrop: hehe. v groovy smilies. C'est moi- Klatterkitty. Well, Rosie actually. Don't know if you remember me :)

Swendula
09-07-2002, 02:30 PM
Sure I remember you! Sooo glad you made it here
Swen initiates a mass-hugging and a happy dance

Remus
09-07-2002, 03:07 PM
Wohoo, more people !

Remus joins in with the mass-hugging and happy dancing

Rosie
09-07-2002, 04:28 PM
woohoo hugs and dancing rule

Cedric
09-07-2002, 04:44 PM
Hellooooooooooooo everyone!! Thanks to Swen (And now FleurD, who I'd like to thank for E-mailing me ;)) I am now back!!!

This is the only topic I've been able to read so far so give me some time, I'll get to the rest of them.

And I've got a quick question, are we gonna switch back to the green background? 'Cause I really, REALLY, don't like the blue, it scares me....

Anyway, good to see everyone again :) Oh, and Fleur, my cat is Meche, without an R ;)

-Cedric

Kristin
09-07-2002, 05:26 PM
It's so wonderful to have you back, Ced. :) :D

I had been wondering about the blue, too. I was worried that some people might not like it or be used to it.

Cedric
09-07-2002, 05:32 PM
And it's wonderful to be back :)

To tell you the truth I don't like it, and I don't think I'll ever get used to it, who chooses things like color anyway? Someone should E-mail or Pm them....

-Cedric

Fleurdelacour
09-07-2002, 05:39 PM
Bonjour mes amis! :)

Anyone like to join me in the rAvenclaw House for cookies, Apple Pie and Butterbeer? :beer:

Bridget Chubb
09-07-2002, 05:46 PM
Hi Cedric!:D The MI wasn't the same without you.:(

I can't imagine it'd be too hard for them to change the background green again, but then, what do I know?:p I'll ask.:)

Fleur - yum.:D

Edit: They want to make sure everything's working all right again, and then there'll be no problem changing the color back.

Stardust
09-08-2002, 12:01 PM
It's me and I is back!!!!:) hi, i don't know which house to be in hufflepuff or grffindor.I can belive non of you e mailed me to let me know about this place :(

Cedric
09-08-2002, 03:15 PM
Gonna get green back?!? YES!! That is such good news, thank you Bridget!

It's really up to you Star, whichever house fits you, take a look at the sorting hat song in the first book, that might help you decide :)

Ced throws on his apron and takes his spot in front of the grill, only to notice that the words "kiss the chef" have been changed to "kick the chef"

Hey! Who did that? ;)

-Cedric

Swendula
09-08-2002, 03:17 PM
Sorry sweetie, I didn't have your email. Since Bfm was here I figured you'd be on soon. :) Hugs

It seems like we've got most of our Hufflepuffs back, do you think we should have a celebratory barbeque?? :D

Hugs Ced It really wasn't the same without you

Stardust
09-08-2002, 03:57 PM
I had to be told or i have had to get mad at them.:D
Here let me get that ,Ced!:)
Switchus wordsus
The words now read Kiss the chef!

Mellon
09-09-2002, 09:04 AM
Ced, :kiss: :)

Stardust, you can post in all the houses if you want to :)

Remus
09-09-2002, 03:41 PM
Hey, welcome back Ced and Stardust :)

Stardust
09-09-2002, 05:03 PM
HI, yep.:) :D

Fleur
09-10-2002, 12:33 PM
Fleur gives all her re-found friends a HUGE hug especially Mellon who she hasn't seen for a while!

HEY isn't it great now everyone is here YEY!

My monitor blew up (literally) if anyone wondered where I been.

wow i use such good english

Anyway... On with the barbee!

Cedric: Does anyone want a quorn burger?

Fleur: Why does Ced ALWAYS get to do the barbeque! My turn! I'm making sheesh Kebabs and yummmy yummy Corn on the Cob... and babequed bananas... and sasauges... and anything else you want!

Stardust
09-10-2002, 04:46 PM
Wow, how did that happen Fleur?
Sure about the ravenclaw thingy.
:kiss: for Ced, becuase of what his apron say.

Cedric
09-10-2002, 10:21 PM
Thanks Star :D

What on earth is a quorn burger Fleur??? Never heard of it.....

Ced sits back, letting Fleur take over the Q

-Cedric

Stardust
09-11-2002, 05:25 PM
Your very welcome, Ced.:o
That sounds interesting ,Fleur.:)

Fleurdelacour
09-11-2002, 05:47 PM
Can I come in? I need cheering up :( BBQs are yummy. Today was really sunny... I'm watching 9/11, and it's so sad :(

Fleur
09-11-2002, 07:41 PM
You're the Vegetable, aren't you, Cedric? I guess you don't get Quorn over there. It's like tofu but actually has taste. \

I was watching that too, Carrie. I hated the bit when you could hear the noises of the people falling. :(
It was a horrible thing to watch

Stardust
09-11-2002, 07:43 PM
No more talk of that.We are here to have a BBQ ,kay?:) :D

Fleur
09-11-2002, 07:46 PM
:)

Okay.

Can I offer you a chicken leg?

Or a Dr Pepper?

What's the worst that could happen?

Cedric
09-11-2002, 07:59 PM
Someone could sprinkle pop rocks in the drink, then you'd drink it and you head would explode.

You asked what was the worst thing that could happen :D


We didn't have any moments of silence in school today, though we did watch some things about it.

-Cedric

Remus
09-12-2002, 03:48 AM
My English class were about the only calss in the school to hold a minutes at 1.46 (our time). And I really shouldn't have watched 9/11, but I did. So I'll eat some food.

Remus takes a whole load of chicken legs before asking if there are any spare ribs going

Mellon
09-12-2002, 09:04 AM
((everyone))

Did you just say barbequed bananas, Fleur? :eek:

Remus
09-12-2002, 02:56 PM
Mmm, I've had barbequed bananas and mars bars before, strangely quite nice tasting.

Stardust
09-12-2002, 05:04 PM
Lets do smorres:D

Remus
09-14-2002, 06:30 PM
Where's everyone gone ? The BBQ will be on fire if we're not careful !

Wohoo, survived my 1st week back at school (and all the GCSE prep-talks) Only something stupid like 25 school weeks left to go :eek: :)

Stardust
09-14-2002, 09:02 PM
i have survived two weeks already. Plus all thing s that go with it .:) :D

Cedric
09-14-2002, 09:16 PM
Yeah, I've survived 10 days now, which isn't as many as it sounds, because of the weekends and all....

I've heard of Qing bananas, but I've never done it myself, works because they have so much sugar in them already, so they get all sweet :)

Ced goes over to the pool, and changes the "heated pool" setting to "chilled pool", then floats face up in it

This is the life....

-Cedric

Stardust
09-15-2002, 10:28 AM
Oh ,cold, don't Ced i have a cold already don't need to make it worst,:)

Fleur
09-15-2002, 10:53 AM
Barbecued bananas are sooo nice. We have them with Rum :p tasty.

I too survived my first week! goooooooo me!

Fleur Puts some Fruit and Marshmallow sheesh kababs on the barbee

Mellon
09-16-2002, 09:06 AM
Interesting shade of green here... different, very different...

Congratulations everyone on coping with beginning school. I've got 2 weeks before I go off to uni, so I'm just doing nothing at the moment :D

EDIT - (((Swen))), I've just been reading through the MIA topic in the Pony to see who still hasn't been found. I hadn't seen before that you were trying to find me and Loupie - thank you so much :) (I'm a bit late with this, but... um... nevermind... ;))

Fleur
09-16-2002, 02:34 PM
Oh WOW! We are in the GREEN

Different! It's cool. I like that the MI has a different colour scheme to the rest of CoE.

Thanks, Powers That Be!

:notworthy :notworthy :notworthy :notworthy

I'm off to see if I can find a Great Serpent ring on the web...

Stardust
09-16-2002, 06:37 PM
Heehee, umum, S'mores.:)
Yeah ,green ,my fav color.:)

Loopy Loupie
09-16-2002, 06:58 PM
Sorry I've been back on CoE for a while I just haven't popped in here.

So hello to all my fellow Hufflepuffs, its great to see you again.

EDIT: I've just noticed Remus's comments on the first page, about his cat, Ci

That actually sounds scaryly like my cat Cici. What does Ci look like?

Stardust
09-16-2002, 08:19 PM
HI,:D whats up? cats are cool.mine are named samantha and elvis.:)

Fleur
09-17-2002, 05:30 PM
Elvis ist eine gute name.

But Tybalt rocks my socks.

Is it just me, or has the colour changed again? It might jiust be my dad's pc, but it looks.. darker... I dunno

Remus
09-17-2002, 05:33 PM
Hey Loupie

Ci's a rather fat and old ginger tabby - not really much more description I can add to that. And all the names are great (I particularly like Elvis)

I wish I could say I have done or heard something remotely interseting lately, but I haven't (stupid school and homework).

Loopy Loupie
09-17-2002, 06:36 PM
Cici is a fat and old tortoiseshell, who will eat anything. And I mean anything, edible or not, her favourites at the moment are cheese, peas and pencils.

I just have strange pets.

Swendula
09-18-2002, 04:06 PM
(((Mellon))) It just wouldn't be the same without you two :)

Glad to hear that everyone is at least surviving school. It's so odd, I haven't been in a school in several years, but I still dream about it all the time.

Is the barbeque still going?? I'll pass on the fried bananas, but corn and s'mores sound good! :cool:

Swen sits by the pool listening to the funny kitty stories

Loopy Loupie
09-18-2002, 05:18 PM
The other thing you could do is cut the bananas open, put chocolate in the middle, then wrap them in tin foil and stick them in the embers of the fire to heat though, thats quite nice.

Though S'mores sound just as good.

Stardust
09-18-2002, 05:24 PM
I did not name Elvis my mum(bloodfire'smum) did.She tought it was cute.He is a fully orange and orange and white.:)

Fleur

Yes! I love that!

My cat is the embodiment of all colours. Well, cat colours anyways. She is mainly tortoise shell, (Black, ginger and grey) but with white body, a tabby head and ginger stripes on her legs and tail.

Ahg I ache so much

Stardust
09-19-2002, 05:01 PM
Sammy is a tabby.:)

Loopy Loupie
09-19-2002, 05:46 PM
Loupie sticks some chocolate bananas on the BBQ for Fleur,

Your cat sounds really pretty, any chance of a picture, you might also like to know that torti-tabbies as they are known aren't actually that uncommon, my cat had a few in her litter.

Fleur
09-19-2002, 07:05 PM
Oh, wow. Tortie-tabby. that is a cool name!

Thanks for the choco banans!

:beer:

This is my kitty:
http://www.gamers-forums.com/smilies/otn/animals/mog.gif

Ok i know that didn't work. why?

Remus
09-21-2002, 08:26 PM
Seeing as I can barely work my own computer, there is no way I can explain why that didn't work, Fleur. You see, I couldn't even get the pictures of Ci I had taken on my (very new :D ) digital camera onto my computer, my Dad had to show me how, and even then I forget which directory I've put them in, so I think I'll just stick to the going on the computer to get online (and not even attempt to try and understand how to work it).

Wohoo, my hundreth post !

Fleur
09-21-2002, 08:40 PM
This is my 2081st post.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Ha anyone seen Signs? Me and Ceri (remus) Just went to see it! It was SO GOOD AND SOOO SCARY!

I literally yelled out loud twice at least. I nearly broke Ceri's fingers off. eekness!

Cedric
09-21-2002, 09:18 PM
Lol, yeah, it is scary huh Fleur? I got startled pretty bad one too many times :) And I hear FleurD is gonna see it too, hope she posts her story for us :D

What made you yell out anyway? I can't remember anything that'd cause something like that.....

-Cedric

Fleur it may not be you

A lot of websites dont allow linking to pictures on their sites as that uses their bandwidth to display it on our site (websites have a certain allocation for bandwith per month and they get charged extra if the people who access them go over this limit. It can also crash the site, which has happened to us before)

Swendula
09-22-2002, 02:31 AM
Yeah, I tried to post a pic of Buttons over in the Pets thread in the Pony. Maybe MSN Photos has changed their policy too. Which really stinks cause I have no other webspace. And just today I took a great picture of Buttons with his furry belly in the air. Anyway...

Your kitties sound cute Star :)

Buttons can't stand bannanas. When he's near one, he wrinkles his nose and squints his eyes and generally looks completely disgusted. The same thing happens with toothpaste (or any minty thing) and bubble gum.

My mom and my aunt saw Signs, and based on what they said, I'll rent it and watch it at home. So I can hold a pillow in front of my eyes when necessary ;)

Hugs all the hufflepuffs

Bridget Chubb
09-22-2002, 02:34 AM
People have been going to imagemagician.com to host pictures - I haven't tried it, but supposedly it's pretty easy to use...

Awww, I want a kitty! My dad's allergic to them though.:(

I haven't seen "Signs," but I want to! I'd probably more scared seeing it at home, actually...I'd most likely watch it at night by myself, and then have to go upstairs to bed in the dark...:o

Remus
09-22-2002, 08:00 AM
Yeah, I'd get more freaked out if I saw it at home, but there would always be the upside of actually retaining the use of both my hands (one was being grabbed by Dom on one side and another friend on the other side). But I prefer cinema mostly because there are loads of people also screaming and/or jumping, so I don't feel quite such an idiot.

That's the same with lucy! And orange and citrus stuff as well. One time my little bro charlie was blowing those soap bubbles and she went mad! She was so scared of them!

I jelled at the bit when he sees it in the tv, although I knew something was coming, because of the absence of music. Also at the bit where it has its hand on the little boy's shoulder.

I should really get dressed. I never seem to be able to on sundays for some reason.

Stardust
09-22-2002, 11:21 AM
They are cute ,Swen, Elvis was just standing in front of the tv and last night he walked all over moms computer.
My cats don't like bananas either.:)

Mellon
09-22-2002, 11:25 AM
I had to hide from Signs. Far too scary for me... :eek:

Cedric
09-22-2002, 01:44 PM
Never tried any of the bananas or other things with Meche, but I do know that when she sees me hold a ruber band she does the squint and smell action, it's funny because she looks so confused :)

-Cedric

Fleur
09-22-2002, 04:54 PM
rubber bands? That's strange.

Remeber when you posted that list of things dogs were allergic to, and it had stuff like TAR on it? lol that was so funny.

Stardust
09-22-2002, 10:07 PM
They don't like them either, my cats.:)

Fleur
09-25-2002, 02:47 PM
We have school play auditions tomorrow! Godspell - anyone seen it? It was on at the Theatre Royal ages ago but I didn't see it - the only thing I know is it had joel from neighbours in it!

Wil you be auditioning Remus?

Remus
09-25-2002, 03:42 PM
Yes, but I don't expect much (especially from the singing audition) so I'll probably end up with the costume crew (for the 3rd year running). Being backstage is far less scary.

Molk Fx
09-25-2002, 03:57 PM
Good luck!

I saw Joel and that other dude on the Big Breakfast when they were advertising Godspell. Check out this site (http://www.geocities.com/Broadway/Lobby/4209/) for more info on the play. :)

I just got the part of the understudy for John in the Disney version of 'Peter Pan' @ College. Impressive, huh? ;) I think not. The main John is played by a chick for crying out loud. I must just suck.

Fleur
09-26-2002, 04:13 PM
aaw thats mean! The auditions were okish... Remus was SOOO funny with her american accent! It rocked!

I think I over acted too much. oh well.

Godspell looks really funny

Amberion
09-26-2002, 07:19 PM
I first saw Godspell (play not film) in 1974I think

It was really good - though not quite as good as Jesus Christ Superstar (which was awesome and featured some of Australia's biggest rock stars of the time)

Remus
09-27-2002, 02:58 PM
It does look pretty good, except now they're expecting me to sing and dance (not very good).

I'm going on a demonstration in London tomorrow, should be quite cool.

Colli
09-28-2002, 12:27 AM
Ooooh ooh oh I never joined a house at Im. :)

Is there some sort of orientation? ;)

Colli waves to Bridge (one of her estranged quadruplet sisters ;)) and the rest of the House

Bridget Chubb
09-28-2002, 02:20 AM
Estranged? We're not estranged! What are you talking about?:p

Our other quadruplets are all gone now, though...:(

I had some chocolate when I first got here...I think that's about it for orientation.:D Welcome!:D

Colli
09-28-2002, 02:43 AM
Huzzah!

I'm a member of a house.

This is *sniff* probably the happiest *sniff* day of my life.

(((((((((Hufflepuff))))))))))


Colli passes out snickerdoodles to everyone.

Loopy Loupie
09-28-2002, 07:03 AM
Nice to see you Colli (to see you, nice)

Have some chocolate, as you can see we are by far the best house

I'll leave it to the others to give you a tour as I'm too busy packing to spend much time here

Oh and does anyone know if we still have our reindeer from Imladris, Huorn, i think

Fleur
09-28-2002, 02:20 PM
Hope so.

I went up to london today, but not the march.. to some drama thing in channel four. they got all the people that made films with first light or something. it was fun.

Welcome Collie!

Swendula
09-28-2002, 04:08 PM
Hey Colli!

Good luck with the play, Fleur & Remus. I am far, far to shy in RL to ever participate in school theater :o

We better still have that reindeer :D If it too early to start decorating for Christmas?? All the Hufflepuffs stare at Swen Okay, okay, I'll wait till November.

That doesn't stop me from shopping for decorations and gifts though ;)

I hope you're on telly soon! :D Where abouts did you go?

I wanted to go to the march... Meant to be the biggest anti-war march Europe has ever seen. But I'd jut get arrested... haha, I could just see that!

Remus
09-28-2002, 04:33 PM
lol. There were nearly 500, 000 people there by the end (more than the Countryside Alliance march last week :D ) , it was so busy ! My arms really ache now and I've got splinters from the banners, but it was so worth it.

That drama thing sounds really cool Fleur.

Hi Colli, welcome.

Stardust
09-29-2002, 10:18 PM
Hi ,I won't be on for a while. My laptop is down internet wise.:) :(

Fleur
09-30-2002, 04:05 PM
Byye Stardust! we miss you already!


I met someone who had worked with Anthony Stewart Head! It was sooo amazing. lol.

Check out the new banner, man! It rocks!

Fleur HUGS all the Huffs

Swendula
10-03-2002, 03:12 AM
Kicks Star's computer Does it work now?? :D

Hey all, look, this is my 100th post at the new boards!
With a flick of her wand, the Hufflepuff common room is transformed into a party center with lots of banners and confetti and cakes and silly little party hats with wings and allow you to fly around

HUGS to Fleur, Ced, Bridger, Star, Remus, Fleurd, Loopy, Colli, and Mellon :)

Fleur
10-07-2002, 04:45 PM
Congrats on your 100th post Swen!

hey guess what everybody!

Me and Remus got into the school play! Woohoo! I am playing Peggy - (this still doesn't mean much to me. I am supposed to be shy. SHY! ha! But the song I sing is pretty cool) And Remus is singing chorus. Go us!

Bridget Chubb
10-07-2002, 05:22 PM
Congratulations, Fleur and Remus!:clap: I'm sure you'll have lots of fun.:D

Cedric
10-08-2002, 12:15 AM
Yeah! Good job you two! Can't say I've heard of the play itself, but from what you've said of it, sounds okay :)

I'm still too shy to try out for a school play myself..... Someday :)

What are we doing here, not decorating for Halloween???? It's sneakin' up on us.... I've decided what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna dress up with a mask and everything, sit out on a chair on the porch and scare kids as the come by :D So I'm pretty much going to be a lawn ornament :D That's not too evil is it?

The play looks really good, I'm just glad I'm part of it onstage for once.

It's like 3 weeks to Halloween ! But if you like preparing early, sure, I don't think it's too evil.

On no, better get back to my oh so fun ethics essay. :rolleyes:

Halloween :) The day I don my gladrags and dressup as a celebrity... Who will it be this year:

Gareth Gates, Elvis, Avid Merrion (ha, he wishes he was a celebrity) Graham Norton, Trevor (evil Trevor) or Kat Slater?

Oh the choices!

Congrats you two! :) You'll be winning Baftas in no time! :)

We don't have school plays... :(

I have to prepare early. See I'm gonna make a custom mask, which is gonna be really cool, 'cause I've designed it all myself (I'll post my top designs if you want) , and sense it's gonna be made on my own face, it'll fit like a glove.

Can't wait :)

Well, it's a little too early to decorate for Halloween, but it certainly seems like autumn around here, just the way I like it :D

I'd love to see the pics of your mask Ced. If I can get my photos online I'll post the pumpkins I'm painting. Err, going to paint, anyway.

Congratulations Remus & Fleur!
Fleur--sorry I haven't been online much lately, it's amazing how you can be so busy without having much to do. See ya soon

I say we have an excursion and go pick out some pumpkins for the common room. Pumpkin picking is just one of those things you have to do in person without wand waving :)

Hugs for all cause Swen has missed you all, her being busy with nothing and all ;)

Fleur
10-09-2002, 03:32 PM
Hiya Swen! *Big Huggssssssssss* Missing you! lol. speak to you soon.

I am going to be Columbia form Rocky Horror for Hallo'ween, but I got it easy because I work at a costume for hire shop! I get all my stuff free! yey!

This her, if some people don't know...

Last year's pumpkin (http://www.imagemagician.com/images/swendula/cat pumpkin closeup.JPG)

Hopefully I can start painting this week, if I paint too soon they tend to rot, especially the very small ones.

Looks cool Fleur. Glad you're having fun with the play

Hugs all the Hufflepuffs

Woah, cool pumpkin Swen and great costume Fleur :D

Argh, I'm not gonna be around for Halloween so there's no point in me planning for it (seeing as I'll be deep in the Welsh countryside on the 31st) :mad: :rolleyes:

awww! Dom! *hugs!* Christmas soon! 25th Oct! ;) It could we worse... I guess. We could be a-level students!

Thursdays are crap. School is over for year elevens. But the common room (y11) was really quiet today...

I visited my first college yesterday... It's big! 1000 students! A THOUSAND STUDENTS!


:jawdrop:

We have 500 at my school...

Also got a crap Autumn report from school... I AM DEEMED TO FAILURE according to them. Bastards. 11 years of waste.

11 years of Maths.

And I reilised today that I'm manicly paranoid!

ALSO I AM SICK TO DEATH OF NELLY AND KELLY! CAN THEY GO AWAY ALREADY!?!?!

You only have 500 students?!

We have 1800 students!

Geez!

year 11 sucks. everything sucks.

Man, both of you sound like you need some cheering up. I don't know about you but what helps me is . . .

Fleurs, I don't really know what to do to cheer you up either, except to say that year 12 is better than year 11, even with the government's ridiculous messing around with the system. Although there's more work, there is more free time, and generally more freedom than at school, which can't be a bad thing. It does get better, honest :)

Fleur
10-18-2002, 02:37 PM
yey. Freedom surely is good. I seriously can't wait to leave School. SO MUCH!

Hey I got my national insurance card today, even though my 16th is 3 months away. I now officially exist!

I am in a beter mood now. Well, slightly anyways. Is satuarday tomorrow. Work should be ok because it'll be really busy with halloween and everything!

£1000 a day for 3 days in -32 c tempratures!!

We're not even going to Ireland anymore :( no where to stay...

Elfëa
12-06-2002, 04:44 PM
-32 C? :D

I think the coldest I've been in(by degrees, not counting the wind!) is around 30... :eek:

But actually, you don't notice the cold inside :p The central heating and douple-glasing is *good* in Finland :p (Not as in here :rolleyes: - I freeze in my room and there's not even minus degrees outside :mad: )

We never go anywhere around Christmas... :)
Stay home, visit close family. :)


*sighs*

I just realised I have to decide where I'll spend Christmas this year - as my parents are divorced...
And my granny wants me as well :rolleyes: And my friends want me for the morning - that's a tradition... :D

Edit: Is anybody opening the calender today? It looks like it's going to explode... backs away slightly
No one opened it yesterday...

Fleurdelacour
12-06-2002, 05:03 PM
It said -32 c in the brochure!

Oh dear Elfëa, everyone wants you for Christmas!

No one wants us at all! Only my aunt and her boyfriend (harry Potter) Mark, my grandparents, and.... Someone else... Oh yeah, my uncle Adrien!

My other aunt and her boyfriend are going to EGYPT!

Everyone else lives in Ireland. :rolleyes:

less pressies ;)

Elfëa
12-06-2002, 05:09 PM
Yeah, less pressies... I've got half of mine already - my aunt and uncle pay for my plane ticket :)

Your aunt's bf looks like Harry Potter?

There's a guy over KD and CoE who looks just like Harry Potter- even more than Radcliffe, in my opinion :p

(oh, how much we have teased him about that... :p (and if he sees this post, which I doupt... I'll be dead. :p)

All my relatives live in Finland, and in a small area - 30 mins drive :)

12-06-2002, 06:28 PM
Elfea, you talkin about Molk? :LOL:

I'm sorry to say.. I just don't understand your calendar references! :o

I right-clicked and copy/pasted yesterday.. it just gave me the Angelfire logo. Today it's working. Lovely horse!

My little dorky brother who I was taller than for several years... even though he's 3 years old.

Nope, Scytale :p (just wait till I get my pics of last Manchester meet :eek: :D amber bought a Harry Potter mask... and draw a star on it's head (like in ski's avatar :p)


Remus opens the fourth door of the advent calender and reveals a sleigh full of presents for everyone

that calender Colli? ;)

Lovely horse, she was :) Was not my own, but lovely still. Died later that year. *sighs* Memories :)

Colli
12-06-2002, 06:39 PM
Ah, yes. Now I remember! ;)

Are there pics of Scytale in the Scrapbook?

Elfëa
12-06-2002, 06:44 PM
No idea.

There are couple in KD, somewhere in the Asylum, from a meet in Lincoln :p hmm... I think it was "Anyone wanna meet me thread" - by Hwicce... around page 3...

oh, and I have pics of that meet here: www.angelfire.com/or/bsbstories/meet.html

But in that thread there's a GOOD pic :p

Colli
12-06-2002, 10:29 PM
LOL those are awesome!

I'm so jealous. :p

Elfëa
12-06-2002, 10:31 PM
Jealous for what? :) I'll say that meeting Molk isn't that different from meeting anyone else... besides, I could sometimes hardly hear what he spoke :o

:( I can't make it to the London TTT meet :( I would have liked to meet more people:)

But I'm going to see TTT in London anyway :) with Tinuva (from KD, I think she posts CoE as well... :D)

Colli
12-06-2002, 10:59 PM
lol no I'd just love to get to go to a meet.

And that castle cathedral thing is AMAZING. We don't have buildings like that in the states. :p

I went to Movie Gallery with the intention of renting the SE.... THEY DIDN'T HAVE IT! AT ALL! So I was like "Well, I'll go find Trainspotting. I've been meaning to see it". It wasn't there either! :eek: So I thought "OK. Find an Alan Rickman movie".. and the only one I could remember was Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. And it was rented. Finally I started walking through the aisles trying to find a movie that looked appealing.. and suddenly Mr Rickman's face just kinda jumped out at me.

Mesmer is a REALLY weird movie.

But Alan's awesome. And I got to hear him say swoon!!! :swoon:

Elfëa
12-06-2002, 11:08 PM
Ah, I loved the Cathedral and the Castle :)

We don't have them in Finland either... not as old as they have here... I mean, even this small town I live in has a cathedral! :eek:

hmm... should I go to bed? It's only 3am and I'm hungry and and and... I want something good to read... :D Something like a chapter of Draco Veritas...

Goosh, I totally forgot. :o

It was intependence day in Finland today/yesterday (6th Dec)... 85 years of Indepence... :)

Cheers! to it :) lifts her pint of Butterbeer

Lovely pictures!

What's stopping us having a meet, we could all go halfway - the Atlantic ;)

Still no snow. Not even 2cms!

It rained! Oh joy...

And Daniel Radcliffe was on a bus that passed my house.

I'm not lying! Look!

Daniel.... (http://www.imagestation.com/mypictures/inbox/view.html?url=http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid41/p6fd325e9407160c51f6b8d48516995c7/fcf5eaf0.jpg.orig.jpg&caption=daniel%20radcliffe%20passes%20house!%20&id=4243974896)

it's soo coold! Windchill makes it -4c!

Not leaving house, its raining anyway... It makes no sense... It's cold! Why no snow?!

-4c? shivers

I'm too used to this climate now :o I'll freeze during holidays (about -15c, I think)...

:rotfl: at Daniel on the bus... :p

One day I'll go to America :) Some day, some how, maybe when I've married that millionaire, cause I'm afraid I'm not that good writer :o

Fleurdelacour

Funnily enough, I intend to marry a millionaire too, buy a place in Notting Hill and New York, and a castle in Scotland and eat chocolate until my dying day...

Colli
12-07-2002, 08:20 PM
Shall we trade? I know about 50 Americans that would LOVE to come to London! :p

:D

It's been about 7 F at night here... REALLY COLD. During the day it warms up a bit... the snow's kinda melting. We still have about 3 inches left ;)

Colli starts singing...

I'll eat chocolate... until my dying day.........

I decided today, I shall never leave London, I'm living here forever!

I went Christmas Shopping in Covent Garden! :D

I got my friend a really cool birthday pressie! An egocentric's diary! :D

ooh! FRODO RADIO! Oh! Must listen to radio - must win premiere tickets...

Anyone else (apart from Colli ;) ) put they're decorations up yet? we just did! eek!

I'll have to get the camera back out and take a picture of our hallway.... we have pretty garland on the railing and the banister and little white lights wrapped around it. :) I love Christmas!


Except for shopping. I HATE shopping. Spent all day yesterday at the mall with my parents. The 3 hours or so I actually got to "shop" by myself, I spent in Borders drooling over Tolkien stuff.

Shopping is evil.

Fleurdelacour
12-08-2002, 04:25 PM
I took one of our tree yesterday! Flash wont turn off... So it doesn't look so magical!

12-08-2002, 04:58 PM
I'm coming to London on 18th for TTT :D

After that I'm planning to do some shopping - and because we couldn't get tickets for Olympia horse show, I might be spending 19th in London as well... Any good ideas where to go shopping? :D

Shopping is Love. Shopping is Hell.:rolleyes: :p

Fleurdelacour
12-08-2002, 05:13 PM
Yay! :D

Depends on how much you want to spend. Bond Street is a no no, for everyone apart from Millionaires and Celebrities. Covent Garden is in the middle, I got two things... In Mango, and H & M you can get nice jumpers for about £30 :) oh all snug!

Then Oxford Strret is lovley! It has everything! Apart from WHSmiths.... :rolleyes:

Elfëa
12-08-2002, 05:16 PM
Jumpers for £30? That's erm... :eek: EXPENSIVE! :eek:

We've got H&M in Finland... :D

(Can't believe how surprised I was to see one in here! I thought they were scandinavian :))

Fleurdelacour
12-08-2002, 05:28 PM
£30 are normal prices for London... :rolleyes: Been saving ages... Stupid high prices... Grrr....

Elfëa
12-08-2002, 05:29 PM
High prices indeed...

I bought a hoodie from Manchester for £6 :) and trousers for £8! :D

I kinda like shopping in Manchester... or at least in that one shop in there... :p

I'll take a picture of our tree in our common room tonight, and then use the film up on Wedensday, you should see it sometime next week. It's not even that great so I don't know why I'm bothering.

Oh we had Carnary sponge in our canteen yesterday, made sure to steer well clear of that.

Elfëa

I know there's a "common" room somewhere in our hall, but it's only for club members, and I couldn't be bothered to pay £20... :o

I'll try to make my scanner work when I'll get home... Christmas tree pics...

I put fairy ligths up today... :) (Had to take them down cause I don't know are they allowed and there was room check last week...)

I wonder did we have minus degrees here, I've got no *tries to remember what's the thing that tells you the tempature called*... Nevermind. :o

12 days till I'm flying home... :)

The hell hasn't frozen over yet, but my room has... :( (Well, the hell has frozen over sometimes, but today it's warm here :p)

Were it Christmas already - and I had finished my essay, my portfolios, my Christmas shopping, my trip to London (yay! A week to go!) and were I at home and resting - NOT to mention that I don't have to cook myself :p ;)

Fleur
12-09-2002, 05:42 PM
Now, Carrie, if it was Christmas everyday it wouldn't be special now would it?

But yeah, that WOULD be cool!

It was 3 degrees C today! And 2 tomorrow! Brrr!

Colli
12-09-2002, 06:03 PM
:D It was 40 degrees today (Fahrenheit) and I felt blessed. It's been horribly cold lately. That's 8 degrees above freezing... that makes it, what? 2 or 3 degrees Celcius? I never can remember that formula we learned to switch between them..

I actually thought it was hot and changed out of my sweater. :p


Ah! I'm talking to my brother on AIM (the one that's getting married a week from Saturday). This is too funny:

Me: Oh! I'm so excited!
Him: Yeah I know! Only 9 more days. 8.5 actually

.. Colli thinks a bit and starts laughing

Me: Um.. I meant for the wedding. (He had given the amount of days before TTT)
Him: Um, that too.

Hey Bridget, not to be picky or anything, but hasn't Xyla been your FPotW before? :p ;) :hug:

There are still piles of snow laying around on the ground, but due to the "warming up" most has melted. :( I'd take a picture, but it's 7 PM, and has been dark for like 2 hours. :D


You know... I want to learn how to speak German. It's such a fun language!

But I was Bridget's Second FPotW... and it was a week that Imladris was down for a few days, too.

I didn't get my full week!!!!

Bridget Chubb

Bridget becomes very interested in the ceiling all of a sudden

What in heaven's name are you talking about, Colli? Xyla was my FPOTW last week.;) ;) :p

But I was Bridget's Second FPotW... and it was a week that Imladris was down for a few days, too.

I didn't get my full week!!!!

And when was I ever your favorite person of the week?;) ;)

Hmm...actually, I think you're right...I'll keep that in mind if I ever run out of people.


Which is highly unlikely, since as of right now the CoE has 1,328 registered members...;) :kiss:

Oddly enough, today I think it was warmer OUTSIDE than in the school building.

I mean, I know they're trying to save money and all because we're only being funded at 60%, but it's COLD!!!!! When my fingers turn blue during Calculus, I think there's a problem.

My head hurts from all the thinking I had to do for my philosophy exam, that and the fact that I was frozen half to death on the way home :rolleyes: Oh well, I get the day off tomorrow. :D

School was absolutely freezing today, and the teachers are trying to keep it open on one boiler, which means that the whole of lower school gets to stay at home while upper school has to come in and freeze :mad:

Philosophy? Nasty... We've no heating in our exam hall, and the teachers opened the windows (btw, its a converted CHURCH! :eek: ) and we froze too.... Couldn't concentrait on my English exam... then I fell asleep in my DT exam :rolleyes:

THREE SNOWFLAKES! :D

Three today walking home! Froze to death... I wouldn't have frozen IN LEICSTER SQUARE NOT WITH MY HOBBITS!

OH NO! RADIO! :( They're interviewing people at the premiere (the radio station is next door...)

Not upset at all! 6 miles away... Swoonful men are congregating...

I have now finished the first book of FotR! :D

Why do they keep on calling Aragorn Strider though...?

Colli
12-11-2002, 03:57 PM
You mean.. right now.. swoonful men... THAT CLOSE TO YOU?

:swoon:

Some of the hobbits, Sam in particular, never stopped calling Aragorn Strider. It's just the way he met him, you know?

If I met someone who told me to call them "Betsy"... and then I spent several weeks (/months.. I haven't read FotR in MONTHS.. and I can't remember) calling her that, and then later found out that her name was Vivica or something, I'd probably still call her Betsy. :D

Like people on Imladris. I know Fleur and FleurD and Bridget are not your all's names, but if I ever met you in real life I'd probably still call you that. ;)

headache.

I've got assigment due on 20th and cause I'm going to London/Gatwick for 17-19th, I have to hand it in on 17th... And if I want grammar check it with Writing Center I have to have it ready by Friday afternoon and I got killer headache when I came to the comp lab :( Not feeling good at all...

Freezing wind outside doesn't help. My radio speaks only Welsh and I don't understand it. I have to sleep fully clothed in order to stay warm in my room... Perhaps I'll buy another duvet on Saturday, when I have to go to do Christmas shopping. I haven't bought a single gift.
If I want to have my poems checked by the teacher before submitting my portfolio, I have to give them in this week.

One of my teachers is obsessed with Gareth Gates- he hates him. :p And was to pass out - he told- when he heard that one of his ex-students has written some of his songs! And a one Will Young's song, I think...

*yawn*

Too bad this comp room is too far from home, I could go to get some aspirin/painkillers and come back. I'm stuck here...

Do I ever whine? ;)

And the next moment all of their tongues are 5 feet long!

Fleur: Freeeddd! Mwaaahhh!

the others see Fred and george step out from behid the huge Calendar, doubled over with laughter

Actually, I missed that calling names conversation :o

When I met Tinuva, I called her Tinuva... and I probably will :o when I'll meet her in 5 days! :eek:
When I met amber, I called her amber...

Hwicce was rather difficult, so we called him sometimes by his own name, sometimes by the way he pronounces his, name "whycii" or something like that.

Moggy (KD owner) - well, in my mind I pronounce Moggy totally different from the way English speakers pronounce it, so I called him by real name. :p

hmm... who else? Molk, Ski? Both names in use, same with Poppa - I think... but I don't seem to remember his real name anymore! :eek: And Yav and Surreal... same goes to them... :eek:

Most people I've met are KDers... I know I miss people here, from my listing...

I answer both Elfea and my real name - I think most ppl call me Elfea in meets - I think... :o

sereonaranel I call by her real name, but that is because she's a RL friend now days and I've known her by dozens of different nicks :p

looks at Fred and George

I knew someone had been playing with the calender! :mad: ;)

I competely forgot what I was going to say... lol I'm loosing it!

We must have a meet! I dreamt of it! But it was in New York... in a glass apartment, of Cedrics.... I woke up very scared ;)

MEET! :D

btw, that wasn't what I was going to say.... :rolleyes:

Fleur
12-12-2002, 05:40 PM
MEET MEET MEET MEET!

As you may be able to guess, I think it would be rather spiffing to have a meet.

lol. We planned one once but it never happened...

We should have one in London somewhere... it'd be so great

No, I can't make it on 21st - I can't risk missing my flight on 22nd! I'm going on 18th, with Tinuva and a friend of hers - their'll come to the meet on 21st as well. :)

Fleur - you could try to go to the meet on 21st - I think they'll have one ticket still spare! :)

Details of the meet on the 21st here (http://www.council-of-elrond.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=192&perpage=30&pagenumber=1), Fleur. :)

Fred and George try hard to encourage Mellon to open the calendar... she runs away... :p

Can't make it on the 21st because it's my only free day before Christmas, and I'm dying my hair pink again ;)

Finally got my haircut today! And bought expensive bright pink hair dye from the hairdresses... (I decided on pink, not going to Ireland, but what the heck!)

No chance of snow this week.... We're loosing our Russian winds.... SCOTLAND and the northerners are getting it now! pah! :rolleyes:

Elfëa
12-13-2002, 05:18 PM
And we!

We got some snow while we were driving to the horse stables at the mountains! :D

looks curiously at the throbbing advent calender... some puffs of smoke come from the opened windows.... :eek:


backs away slightly


I... I think it's going to explode... it hasn't been opened regularly


BOOM!

Fleurdelacour
12-14-2002, 01:57 PM
Pah! Now the Wales peoples! ;)

It rained, here I think. Haven't looked outside! lol

In a mood because I have to research Momento Mori and all search engines wont work...


La la la!

Could someone open the calender? I'm not suicidal enough... ;)

Fleur
12-14-2002, 04:48 PM
Fleur: eeermm... ok...

Fleur casts a spell to protect herself...

approaches the calendar slowly... and taps door number 14 apprehensively (sp?) with her wand...

And RAINBOW butterflies come out! woohoo!

12-15-2002, 11:07 AM
Momento Mori is latin for remember you must die. And I somehow found pictures of dead Victoria people. You know the Victorians took photos of dead people in their coffins... I found them on my first link in Google! :eek: :(

Right, Ill open the others!

FleurD waves her wand at the calendar doors and voila! Our pops a reel of TTT for us to watch!

*sigh* If only!

PURPLE! IT'S PURPLE AGAIN! YAY!!!

Fleur
12-15-2002, 02:48 PM
That would be SO cool, Fleur! If only!!!!! And then, you know, Orlando could come and watch it with us.....

Elfëa
12-15-2002, 03:05 PM
If only...

*sighs*

but only couple days to go! :D

hmm...

from a safe distance Elfea points her wand at number 15. With a faint *pop* it opens, and fireworks fill the room with confetti and rosepetals.

One rose petal lands on Elfea's nose and she takes it. And nibbles it... :jawdrop:


Chocolate! :D

Fleur
12-15-2002, 03:32 PM
Chocolate Rose Petals? woah. That must be quite something!

Fleur catches one and eats it

Fleur: Blaghgghhh! Cough medicine! Elfëa!

Elfëa: It wasn't me! Honest!

Grrrr...

Elfëa
12-15-2002, 03:44 PM
IT WASN*T me :p

Because it doesn't feel like it. Oh well, made my Death at Christmas christmas tree look better. My art teacher said it was very art-schoolish... Is that a good thing?

I'm exhausted... Art exams are evil FIVE HOURS! FIVE HORUS PAINTING AN OLD CHRISTMAS TREE BLACK! PAINTING 12 BAUBLES BLACK! STICKING NEWS HEADLINES ON TO BAUBLES! FIVE HOURS!!! FIVE HOURS!

Colli walks up to say hi to Bridget while eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and accidentally slips on the water in her stilettos. She puts her hands out at the first thing to break her fall..

:o Oops.. Bridget. Didn't mean to get PB&J all over you! :p ;)

I get so sentimental thinking about TTT coming... can you believe it's been a year? Man, I remember sitting in March-ish downloading crebain like it was yesterday. I remember my first post at Imladris on January 6th... I remember getting ice cream sundaes for Bridget in the Tag thread. :D I remember "How on earth can we wait 11 more months?" "Only 10 more months!" "Wow, time flies. Only 7 more months!"

TTT comes out in a day and a half!!!!!!!

12-16-2002, 04:18 PM

I know what you mean! I hope I survive the next two days!!! I have one exam tomorrow and three other finals on the 18th! I'm going to be dead afterwards, but NO ONE IS STOPPING ME FROM SEEING TTT!!!!!!:p

Merry Christmas, everyone!

I got the SE DVD (which I still haven't seen all of), a TTT calendar, a lot of clothes, socks (of course.. It wouldn't be Christmas without socks), a Spongebob Squarepants toilet seat cover (you gotta love my brother), the PotO soundtrack, and 50 dollars from my grandparents.

And since SOMEONE forgot to get me the TTT soundtrack, I'm buying it.

And I got to see TTT again tonight. :D And my brother got married. And I got to see several of my friends at the wedding.. including one I *ahem* somewhat fancy. (Don't tell Snape).

My friends and I exchanged gifts, too. I got a Snape key chain (surprised?), Harry Potter toothpaste (bubblegum flavored, it squirts out in the shape of a lightning bolt), a stuffed animal (a cat), a cat paperweight type thing, and sweet pea hand lotion from them.

Bridget Chubb
12-27-2002, 04:21 AM

And get the TTT soundtrack right away...you will love it. I got it for Christmas and it just gets better and better.:D

I also got the best present ever, Arwen's Evenstar necklace.:swoon: It is soooo pretty. I wore it to a party tonight and no one could stop looking at it.:D So shiny!

Wow lovely necklace! I wants one! :D

Birthday soon...

Ooh Dom and Ced are 16 in Jan! Scary! lol

I watched my fotr se dvd last night :) It was very strange, lying in bed with a laptop, on your chest but I think I fell asleep whilst it was on, because I had a dream about going to New York, with the presenters of Blue Peter, and I was driving around looking for someone's house, and it was Yoko Ono's house. Then the Blue Peter presenters were presenting awards to the best popstar of 2002, there were 4 nominees, Will Young, Yoko Ono, Aragorn and Frodo.... Yoko won, and Aragorn was comforting Will telling him it was a silly award.....

WHY DID I DREAM ABOUT YOKO ONO?! I'm scared.... lol

They don't even ask my id for bars anymore :(

Fleurdelacour
12-29-2002, 11:39 AM
I'm the opposite to you Elfea, will ish, they ask my id for the buses now... I dont have any, because I'm fifteen, I don't carry any and they think I'm to old to pay the child fare!! :(

I'm refusing to celebrate the new year. 2003 means war, exams, and college.... :mad: :(


I had a really weird but cool dream last night, it was a harry potter and lotr medley! :D

I was going to a party, and I left my bag with my mobile and minidisc player on the steps of the place, then the person who was picking me up decided not to let me get my bag, so it was left behind, and he said he'd buy me a new one...

Then I was at school, calling the radio station, (again! lol last time that happened in real life, I flushed a toilet for Will Young! :D ;) ) because the prize was you could star in RotK even though it's been filmed... Well it was for a role as the only female hobbit, so I called up and won, yey for me, and it was being filmed in the Convent's Garden in my school, so I went down.

Then I was flicking through a magazine and saw Dobby with my bag with my stuff in it, and I started to scream "A HOUSE ELF HAS MY BAG!!"

Then Peter Jackson said to me, he didn't need a female love interest for Frodo anymore... And I woke up.

loll weird dream!

Colli
12-29-2002, 01:22 PM
ROTFL! Weird dream, indeed.

I'm excited for the new year, I cannot WAIT to go to college (living away from my parents..) and meet new people and start fresh... it's gonna rock.

I'm never ID'd anywhere, but I don't go to bars or try to buy cigarettes or alcohol or anything, so it's not a big problem. :D I'm just carded when buying movies rated R at Walmart. ;)

Elfëa
12-29-2002, 01:48 PM
I'm never asked for ID unless there are younger looking people in the group... :(

When I was 11 people thought I was 16... :eek: (At horse stables, when you're not dressed up, that's easy in a way...)

but then again, I've always felt I'm older than my age... in ways at least (read a lot, think a lot... :p)

Weird dreams.. .tell me about it... :rolleyes:

They're normal to me, I hardly ever sleep without dreaming - you know you get best dreams if you let your alarm on snooze and let it wake you up every 6 minutes...

once I dreamed that I woke up and walked to the otherside of my room to get water from the sink and passed out on the way there. But I actually was sleeping in my bed all the time... :rolleyes: That was actually weird feeling - I've never passed out...

2003 means new year in life, another page on the book which will end someday and no one ever knows how soon.
it means more time away from my family and people who I don't know but call friends. It means more time with people I have nothing in common with and spend time just to spend time with.
It means more years with nothing else to love but myself and I hate myself...
I don't believe in love anymore...

(morbid mood today, forgive me)

okay. Ranting off. Now. :mad:

Elfea, you don't believe in love? A life without love.. that's terrible! :(

I don't mean to sound cheesy, but the hope of loving someone someday is what gets me up every morning. .. even the love I have for my family and friends, and the love they feel for me is enough to sustain me until I finally meet the right person and we can love each other forever...

:D :hug: It's all good.. the holidays always put me in a weird mood. For some reason, everyone coming home for Christmas just makes me lonelier..

I get up in the morning because of my faith, because I believe that almost 2000 years ago, Christ died for ME. And I don't want to waste that sacrifice. But that's me, and I know there are some people out there that don't believe that.

Other things to wake up for: Love. Snape. Draco. Lucius. :swoon:

Family, friends, The Council of Elrond, to see TTT yet another time ;), to learn, to read, because there are people out there that LOVE you!

It's been New Year for 2.5 hours in here... of that time I've queued in to a nightclub (which I eventually didn't go in to) for 1.5 hours :eek:

Not that good start for a New Year....

Not to mention I'm feeling slightly sick (must be the vodka stuff :o or the fact that I'm starving...) and my chips don't certainly have enough salt...

Happy New Year! :D

FleurD, college is fun. I don't know anyone who hasn't liked college much better than they did school. :)

The celebrations are over... now we get on with living the year...

In general, I think it's going to be OK in the long run. Well, at least when I'm feeling postive I think that... ;) Mainly, though, I think you've got more chance of having a good year if you face it thinking that it'll be all right. Optimism all the way. :)

I don't mean to sound cheesy, but the hope of loving someone someday is what gets me up every morning. .. even the love I have for my family and friends, and the love they feel for me is enough to sustain me until I finally meet the right person and we can love each other forever...

I read again some of my posts and I don't agree with them - Can I call them hormones? ;)

Colli
01-01-2003, 04:34 PM
Hormones, indeed.

I got into a discussion/argument with one of my friends last night about Legolas.. she "loves" him.. and I was trying to figure out why. After an hour or so, I realized a horrible truth. You take two equally as cool characters, two characters equally as important to the plot of a story (i.e. Legolas and Gimli) and people will always like the one that's better looking.

So what does it leave those of us in the world who aren't bad looking (but no exceedingly beautiful) and aren't extremely talented? Will we be passed up each time for someone equal or lesser in strength and personality, but greater in beauty?

Elfëa
01-01-2003, 05:25 PM
I guess that's just a question of reproduction...

If there are two equals, I guess the nature has made us choose the more beautiful one?

*shrugs*

I won't put any money on my words ;)

Kinda OT...
Anyone who has read Neil Gaiman's The Sandman knows probably what I'm refering to if I say "Love is cruel, cause love belongs to desire and Desire is always cruel."

But what is beauty? Hi guys, decided to join the discussion, here. :D

Seriosly, though, everyone has their own preconceived idea of what beauty is. For example:

Take two women, one a Hawaiian princess, skinny, long dark hair, bathing suit, lei, do I really have to go into details? And the other, a large, dark haired and eyes, big furry coat Eskimo. Each have the same education, similar personalities, and similar interests (I bet they're just the best of friends, don't you?). If you ask a Hawaiian guy, or any other male in the world for that matter, to choose one to accompany him on a cruise down the Pacific, they would most definately choose the Hawaiian princess. BUT, get an Alaskan native (and by that I mean and Inuit) and they would pick the large, seal fur ALASKAN beauty.

See, beauty comes from propaganda. Now adays, women think they have to be as skinny as sticks with large chests and thieghs and a peaches and cream complexion to get noticed. Kinda like Barbie(R). But, to the Inuit, the larger a woman, the better. It means the husband takes care of her and feeds her much. And in the Renaisance, you notice many of the women have round-ish bellies in the paintings. They thought that meant they were good for breeding (sometimes I think people speak of my own sex as if they were an animal. Yuck. But this is what my history teacher said so...)

So, I believe the old saying holds true: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

Another example: Put Aragorn, Legolas and Oliver Wood in a lineup. Different people would pick different characters for the "Who looks more attractive in the movie" poll. Again, all those "21 hottest stars under 21" lists are bogus because they're always made by the same people. I took a list like that to school once and my guy-analyzing friend flipped through it saying: "Cute, not so cute, cute, not hot, ugly, Hot, hot, cute, SO NOT hot..." etc. Also, again, it's propaganda. Beauty is like fashion. Look at the eighties vs the nineties. It was considered "cool" to get a major perm in the eighties, but the nineties was all about straight hair. In the early nineteen hundreds, women were supposed to be conservative(ish). Now, everyone's trying to dress like Britney Spears. Does anyone see my point here? If it's in the magazines, people will do it.** They don't care what it says as long as Seventeen or Teen People OK's it.

Um, OK, I think I'm done. And I think I've just gone overboard on my point. So I'll shut up now.




(**Footnote: this is, of course, excluding the ones who do not read magazines or enjoy being different and doing exactly the oposite of what the magazines say)

Elfëa, hormones are a good excuse for everything, short of murder. Actually, possibly even for murder... ;)

That is a depressing thought, Colli... I guess the answer to it is that people don't function completely like animals. Partly but not completely. It might be instinct to always go for the good looking one, but as humans we are capable of thinking about someone's personality as well as their looks... of considering and realising "hey, that person looks good, but they aren't actually all that nice," and vice versa. Sure, some people don't bother to think, but in a way this is quite a useful selecting tool - people that only think about looks are probably not people you really want to be with anyway. As humans, we can rise above our instincts - at least, that's what I think. Psychologists might disagree. ;)

Ravenclaw - posts crossed. Good post. :) Like your sig, too. :D

01-01-2003, 06:13 PM
I agree... somewhat. Human beings in general usually look for TWO qualities in a mate: Physical beauty and a good personality.

But there was one thing that irks me (and actually, it doesn't really have much to do with your argument). Everyone does it all the time, often in every day conversation, even I do it, but...

Humans ARE animals. Heck, we even belong to the kingdom TITLED "Animalia". But people still try to seperate humans from animals, as if we're some superior thing, above them. And many people believe we ARE above them. Well, call me a freaky animal-loving biologist, but we aren't as far above them as people think.

Every animal has different qualities. Dogs have great noses, cheetas have great speed, cats have great reflexes, apes use tools. Humans are distinguishable by their large brain power which usually leads to even larger heads. We still act upon instinct even though we are capable of thought and speech. We still act like animals. I mean, have you ever heard of a chimpanzee warlord?

OK, that was entirely off topic. But as you can all see from my previous post, I am in a very "intellectual" thinking mood tonight, and had to express an opinion... When my head clears and I become stupid again, I may disagree entirely with what I said... Or not understand it at all.

Thanks, Mellon ;)

I agree that a lot of people are quite shallow in what they look for in a partner, but not everyone is. I agree with Mellon that the people that do look for looks are generally those who probably aren't who you'd really want to be with in the long run (well I know I wouldn't want to be). I realised that not so long ago and also that meeting someone that will love you in return will often spring up on you when you least expect it. When you do meet that person (and I'm almost certain you will) they'll love you for who you are, not what you look like. It does happen and it will happen, remember that. :)

As for humans acting like animals, I agree to a certain extent. When you watch a film, because it's not at all personal (seeing as you're not met with a real person, all you have is their image), most people will go for those they find most physically attractive. I don't think there's anything wrong with that, so long as they take a more balanced view with real people. I have crushes on several different famous people, mostly based on what they look like, but I don't base who I fancy in real life on people's looks. Obviously, I can't speak for most of the boys I know, but I know there are definitely quite a few who look for personality over looks.

Happy New Year everyone ! :) (And remember FleurD that we leave school this year, so it's not all bad :D )

:hug: You all are great!

Ravenclaw, I disagree. :D Humans are, scientifically (and sometimes personality-wise ;)), animals, but we are higher. We have a higher level of thinking, and I believe in God and the Creation, and that we were created higher than other animals. But that's off-topic. :)

I know not all people are as shallow as others... but how are people even going to get to know less gorgeous people if their instincts tell them to go for the more beautiful? Except in a world like we are, the internet, you see a person's face before their heart or their mind. BOOM. Your judgement has been made.

Ravenclaw, I'm not sure I entirely understand your first post. :D So if in the Renaissance, larger stomachs were better, that was considered beauty? What of the stick-woman, the woman with no curves and a twig-like waist? So she's ignored, because she's not what society perceives as beautiful.

Mellon.. I know it's depressing. Sorry. ;) Hormones, I tell ya! :devil:

Remus, your post goes with films in general, but I believe LotR is different.. because a lot of people already know the characters. People who probably didn't even take notice of Legolas when they read FotR.. and then fell all over him when they saw the movie. That just isn't right, to me. And it's incredibly disheartening.

I think this thought about love and beauty (and freedom and truth ;)) has been running through my head for at least a year... because I went from being an incredibly typical person swooning for awesome characters (like Aragorn) and hot people to what I am now: still swooning for the KING, but also finding a weird affinity for Snape, Lucius, Tavington, and Grima ( :eek: ). And now I've fallen in love with the phantom of PotO.

On that note, I rented Sense and Sensibility tonight! :D

Just come to think of it; some of the different idolizations (is that a word) can be explained by different beliefs in the current science :)

Famous people are safe to have crushes on :) I can't remember when I really had a chrush on anyone seriously. If I ever had... (on someone you'd think it could work... cause I always know it won't... I'm a freak...)

The better you get to know someone, the more beautiful they become.:) All of my friends, IMO, are lovely attractive people.:) Would I think that if I wasn't friends with them? Maybe. Maybe not. And if I see someone physically attractive acting like a jerk, somehow they seem a lot less attractive.;)

I don't swoon for Legolas the Pretty Elf or Frodo the Beautiful Hobbit. (no offense to Legolas or Frodo fans:o ) I love Sam the Fat Hobbit and Elrond the Balding Elf-lord.:rolleyes: :D Legolas can pose and shoot things all he wants, but...I've really never connected with his character. So to me, Legolas would be a nice guy to have around during an Orc attack, but not a lot else.:o ;) And I wouldn't trade chubby, stubborn little Sam for anything in the world.:)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you fall in love with someone, you will see the beauty in them.

I so agree with your first paragraph, because that's me as well. :) And I believe that a lot of people feel that way. So maybe I just want to trout Hollywood. :trout: For trying to make us believe in "love at first sight", a 'love' that truly cannot be based on anything but, well, sight. A love based on beauty. A shallow love.

No, I definitely want to be friends with a person before falling in love.. I want him to know my every flaw and every nook and crannie of my being... so I know he loves me. :swoon:

Sense and Sensibility was great... yummy and romantic and anti-cliche! And with Hugh Grant and yummy Alan, who could resist? :swoon: [sidebar: I unwillingly ran across pictures from Dark Horizon.

Sars shamelessly walks in and settles down on a handy armchair, while putting her Slytherin badge into her pocket

What? It's interesting in here! And a nice break from violence by electric eel.

People look for very different things in who they percieve as attractive. Some women find the 'Man's Man' image, hair, stubble, sweat and muscles to be the most appealing. While others like pretty guys, slim, non-hairy, smooth skin etc...

But I like to think, that once you've gotten to know someone, you find their personality the most attractive quality.

(And FYI, I find both Aragorn The Stubbled, and Legolas The Pretty to be very swoonful :D But also, Merry and Pippin, Mmmm.)

As an explaination, did anyone else watch that BBC programme about Human Instinct? Why we look for what we do in possible partners was one of the subjects covered. It suggested that, on initial contact, what modern humans look for is the status of the person, and how any children could benefit from those genetics passed on.

So while before broad shoulders and obvious testosterone-a-rama may have been an indication of someone who could plough the family fields well and bring home a deer supper or whatever that was then.

NOW, we look for someone who might well be wealthy. And that means not much work, which means smoother skin, less muscular build etc...

(Personally I think that only goes part way to explaining it. People are messy creatures in the love life department)

Just wanted to mention that it's not only Hollywood that jewels the idea of "love at first sight" but loads of literature does it as well :) And that's the kind of love that I don't believe in - not Romeo and Juliet for me, no Tristan and Isolde, no Arwen and Aragorn - it's not only "at first sight" what I disagree with, but the idea of everlasting feelings of love and desire :(

Love takes knowing, but how can I know anyone when I don't even know myself? :confused:

Damn, Laura got there before me ;) I watched it too. And Laura, I tried to email you, but hotmail said you needed to delete your emails.

I asked my mum, fresh from viewing FotR and asked her who'd she rather have, Aragorn or Legolas.

Aragorn she chose, she wanted a MAN, (it must be in my genes I want a man too! :D) she didn't want some blonde elf, she'd rather have a stubbly man, with a sword. A SWORD (I loved watching the relationship Viggo had with his sword! lol) Legolas was just a pretty boy with a bow ;)

There was this other programme on, with Liz Hurley and John Clease presenting it, on the BBC, and it was about the perfect face.

There's a ratio that equals the perfect face, they did this ratio pattern on a clear transparent sheet of paper, and all the celebrities had this perfect ratio, Brad Pitt, George Cloony, Catherine Zeta-Jones, etc.

I think it was Pythorgoras who discovered the ratio, I can't remember it was about three years ago this documentary was on...


I remember watching GMTV years ago, and this woman blamed her pmt and hormones on murdering her husband! lol

So, basically, while we all agree that what WE go for, ultimately, is a wonderful personality and good character... who here will deny flirting based on looks? I won't. I've done it. :D I can be shallow and vain and rude... and I'm a hypocrite. :rolleyes: ;)

There are people at my school who most would perceive as very good looking... but because I know them, in and out, and because I've known them since I was 5, they disgust me. And they are very ugly people to me. So I get your point. :) But once again, if people, by instinct, go for looks/position/resemblance to Alan Rickman, that really sucks for people without those qualities.

Really.

So now I retreat back to my room, where I will listen to Phantom of the Opera once again and cry for him at the end when he lets Christine go.

A PotO fan, Colli? A girl that used to come here is one too. But she's long gone now...

Has anyone here seen the musical Les Miserables? Not read the book, because the book doesn't have the answer to my question...

Do you want to know what real love is? Elfëa, do you want to meet a character who believes in love with a passion?

In the eyes of Eponine, love is pain. Love is tragically cruel, but it is knowing someone and understanding them so deeply that she would do anything to see him smile.

No one knows themselves. Believe me. Do you think I know who I am? Love is a security. It tells us we are not alone. You don't NEED to know yourself if someone else knows you twice as well.

Eponine Thernardier did not know who she was. Raised by thieving crooks of parents and abused physically and emotionally to no end, she never had a chance to wonder who she was. But then she met Marius, a man she realized she could never be able to live without.
But Marius saw Eponine (lovingly called 'Ponine) as a best friend. Marius sees Cosette (and this is the love you claim you do not believe in, Elfëa) and wonders who she is. Eponine shows him to her home and they "fall in love" instantly. Eponine saves Cosette's life when her father tries to rob Cosette's house. But Mr. Thernardier was not happy and Eponine paid for her so-called betrayal. Later, Marius goes off to help the Revolution and Eponine follows just to be with him. Marius gives her a letter to give to Cosette. As she returns, she is fatally wounded.

Eponine died in Marius's arms.

That love is little more than obsolete. No one, heck, not even Romeo or Jack from Titanic could love like that. Improbable? Definately. Impossible? Definately not.

Movies, literature, even cartoon shows. They all promote this kind of love. Are they distributing false hope? Perhaps. How many people do you know can love like that? But the message is, nothing is impossible if you believe in it strong enough.

I need to write something... a fic, maybe. Yeah, a good, HP fic... Now that I've got that "True Love is not impossible" bug... I'm in my poetic mood.

I'm not being intellectual. Just Bohemian.

But she is a character - created character...

No one knows themselves. Believe me. Do you think I know who I am? Love is a security. It tells us we are not alone. You don't NEED to know yourself if someone else knows you twice as well.
Here I can agree - security, how often we think security is love of kind... I mean, mostly people stick together not because of love, but security... so many marriages base on security. But security is only a part of love - it's not all.
Yes, love of kind exists - but it's not true to me... The passionate, eternal, death-winning love, have you ever seen it? You read about it, you see it in the movies - perhaps it does exist. In the other worlds, where unicorns still live.
I cannot believe until I see and often not even then.

Movies, literature, even cartoon shows. They all promote this kind of love. Are they distributing false hope? Perhaps. How many people do you know can love like that? But the message is, nothing is impossible if you believe in it strong enough.
I guess my problem here is that I do not believe in anything - I try to give everything a chance - I cannot know anything for sure... (okay, that's why I might need faith, but I just can't find it in me... not yet...)

I need to write something... a fic, maybe. Yeah, a good, HP fic... Now that I've got that "True Love is not impossible" bug... I'm in my poetic mood.
erm... I'm actually writing a HP fic... or starting... just making notes and stuff... and it's going to be a romance fic.
But then again... "Writers are liars, my dear..."

Those that go searching for love, only manifest their own lovelessness. And the loveless never find love, only the loving find love. And they never have to seek for it.
- D.H. Lawrence

Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it oepns up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.

Ah, no, haven't seen La Boheme. But I HAVE seen the all time best musical (excepting perhaps Les Miz) RENT! which was based on Lurhman's work. There's even a song called La Boheme in it. Or maybe it's La Vie Boheme...

To days of inspiration, playing hookie, making something outa nothing, the need to EXPRESS to comunicate! To going against the grain, going insane, going maaaaaaaad. To loving tension, no pension, to more than one dimension, to starving for attention hating convention hating pretention. Not to MENTION of course, hating dear old Mom and Daaaaaaad.

To riding your bike mid-day past the three-piece suits! To fruits! To no absolutes! To absolutes! To choice! To the village voice! To any passing fad!

I read in a newspaper that today women look for features in their prospective partners that are more like theirs. Hence the sudden liking for softer features.

Haven't got a name for it yet... and the whole story's really in my mind; that's unusual... :p

if I ever finish it, I even might post it over somewhere... just have to find someone to beta-read it then, right? (I haven't written fic that I'd posted somewhere else but at my own site... and that wasn't HP fic (and it was 5 years ago... - Can you say that time flies...) So, I don't know...

Hm, Elfëa's got me thinking...

In the past, posted originally by you, Fleurdelacour, we had fan fiction threads, but they went down in popularity... last time, it basically became a discussion between me and someone else (sorry I can't remember) about pointless fan fic points. BUT....

If it is wanted, it shall be made again. I think I will start one up again, but I don't want to start up another dead thread so... What do you guys think? I have a Draco/Hermione story brewing (Un-romantic. I don't sail on that ship. But quite funny if you ask me...)

Anyways.

I'll beta-read it for you, Elfëa, that is, if you can't find anyone better, which you probably will.

Oh, and I just thought of a point to add to our "love and beauty" conversation.

I've decided that the only real love is the unconditional love of a mother for her child.

:p

AND I've discovered my own quotes from my favorite source (that actually kinda prove your point, Elfëa):

"People don't fall in love with what's right in front of them. People want the dream -- what they can't have. The more unattainable, the more attractive." ~ Alexander Harris

Sheesh, I live in dream world. :D Sometimes I just come back on earth and that hurts....

Fanfic thread/something would sound marvelous Rav! :D
Who was it who linked to her fanfic over schnoogle? Haven't read that fic yet...
I haven't got a slightest idea who to ask beta (THANKS FOR THE OFFER RAV!), cause I don't really know ppl who're interested reading HP fanfic... unless you count one of my friends who's Finnish, so her English isn't flawless either...
but I doupt I'll be showing the story to anyone until I've written about 5 chapters - then I know can I finish it (I hate nothing more but unfinished fanfiction.... )
No, I'm not telling which ships I prefer... :p But it's a romance :p I think. Unless it becomes really really really dark...

Talking about weird dreams - I dreamed of a friend of mine going nuts and trying to kill one of my friends... and we couldn't stop him and he just went mad - turned totally red and tried to explode all of us then... :eek:
Guess who couldn't sleep after that? :(

I had a dream where I was in London and we'd exitted some building onto Leister Square and it started raining unbrellas... So we ducked into a cafe (I had a feeling someone was with me because I kept talking to them) and discovered Gandalf and Dumbledore arguing about who had the longest beard....

Anyways, my company spoke up and I realized it was (of all people) Xander from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He became judge in this contest and declared Gandalf the winner (with some wise cracks, of course, but I don't remember what they were) and Dumbledore got mad and turned him into a rat...

I've gotta stop watching all those Buffy season two re-runs...

Not that scary, but weird nonetheless with book characters... Plus when I woke up I had a sudden need for cheese.

You've been watching me! I can't help it! They're so well written! ;) :o

I don't see why we couldn't upload slash... It's noly love between same sex couples... Yes, I admit, in the bordem of the summer, I did finally write a slash g-rated fan fic, and drew Ron in drag... But then a few weeks ago what do I see in heat magazine! HARRY POTTER IN DRAG! Yes, Daniel Radcliffe wore a dress for the Play I Wrote, a West End play, a favourite of Prince Charlie, past celebrity guests have included, you'll love thia Laura, Will Young in a dress last week, and Kylie Minogue dressed as a nun. I was scared... I'll scan the picture up when the scanner works, it's scary! :D ;)

Strange dreams... What do they mean? lol at your dream Ravenclaw! I can just picture it... Lescister Square, cafe, two old wizards arguing over the size of their, ahem, beards! lol! :D


My friend Maria is sort of obessed with Gollum, and has been acting like him all day... She'll start eating fish next!

I had my exams before the holidays. I think it's better. That means no homework and the 'going back to school' thing is easier too because you don't have to worry about exams.

I'm still out. Cause of exams, there were some days I didn't have to go to school, so I basically got a month for winter vacation (the days I had off from exams plus the three set weeks). :p That's a longer Christmas vacation than anyone I know and it is SO fun to rub everyone's noses in it! :D!

To top it off, I also get a week in February, in whioch I'm going to visit my friends in Brussles and head up to London and catch a play or two. Thats one thing I love about London more than the shopping, more than the sights, more than the restaurants, more than the people speaking propper English and not having to say "Ma'fish Falluce" all the time. The theater.

I've written my fair share of high-rated fics. Heck, that Ron Christmas fic I posted? I realized it wasn't G. Had to edit it. Took me half an hour. I think it's OK now. I don't think I've ever written a real G rated fic... I've always put them at LEAST PG because I have a tendancy to slip in some words that parents don't like.

The dark situations is the hard part for me. I mean, when I write about dark stuff (I won't go into details) It's difficult for me to rate it because I don't know where the barrier between PG-13, R and NC-17 stand. Usually, I mostly make it R if I'm not sure. I mean, there was some killer stuff I wrote when I was twelve that almost seemed NC-17. I guess it was all the movies I watched... But I don't post those fics for some reason. Sometimes I even scare myself. I like to post the more mild ones and not the Steven King-ish ones.

Speaking of, anyone read the Diary of Ellen Rimbauer, "My Life at Rose Red?" It's a good book, but again, it's Steven King so it's for the mature audiances. Some of you might have seen the Made-for-TV movie about Rose Red. But the book is different, they make you think it's a real diary... Quiet, Rav, before you go overboard.

Fleurdelacour
01-06-2003, 05:56 PM
I likes London shopping too, more then the sights... i'm sick of the sights quite frankly. and THE TOURISTS! I HATE BEING ONE!

They look at a bus and gaup! Point and take a picture of a bus! a bus! oh for Godness sake, its a bus, a horrible bus! have you smelt it? No, smells like drug smoke and b.o...

Oh and I hate Steven King too... He is the reason why I am cursed with the name... Carrie.... *shudder*

I've saved the fan fic thread to read offline :) Should have fun reading tonight :)

Can't we change the thread to pg rated...? Just that one? Many of us are in late or mid teens, and some are adults... In fact there aren't even a lot of us. SOme of us have grown up here... Literally... Scary... Oh my goodness... I registered three years ago... :eek: Yeah, so please Amb? Just that thread so we can have a wider range and not edit...

Unfortunatly, Snowise died at lunchtime due to unforseen cirumstances. He died result of heat. He melted to death.

Nice pictures to! Love the little snowman... but why are the cars parked on the wrong side of the road? :confused: ;)

(By the way, before anyone mentions it, you have to right click on the pictures, go to Properties, and copy-paste the URL to see them.)

We got a light dusting yesterday, but it melted in no time. But I think we're due for another big snow in a week or so. :D

It snowed like mad today! According to my mum it hasn't snowed like this in about 12 years! :eek: :D

I made a REAL snowman, and left him outside! :D We got to leave school early! :D And I have to walk a mile of heath... and it was so weird, five inches of white chrunghy stuff...Shoes not designed for snow though... But it SNOWED!

The whole of our ear had a hugggeee snow fight, my friend Maria kept on slipping, and falling on her bum! It was so funny :D

Snow be a good thing!

Dont think the pictures work! This is a proper Snowise, he's a snowhobbit (http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid46/p80626cede46a2723fae0f96cd5333ed3/fcceeae1.jpg.orig.jpg)

Did anyone watch Boiling Point with Viggo Mortenen in it last night... at ten to one in the morning... Well, I did, and rah! HE WAS BLONDE!, well he is half danish, but he was evil and had a GUN! I kept on expecting him to suddenly kill his peoples with swords instead of boring guns ;) But still very :swoon:

Can I complain a little? I'm sooo tired. I didn't have internet for a week, connection broke and now I have to chach up with everything and I have exams next week so I'll have time online only after thursday.

And not to mention I've travelled from Finland to UK today and I'm tiiiiired... :(

Oh, and it was cold in Finland. And a snowstrom was about to start when I left. But otherwise it didn't really snow during my holidays :( was too cold for that...

Happy Birthday! :)

Now I'm of to bed, just wanted to tell you that I'm still around, just when I'll get the time organised here...

Hope you have a good day.

I'm very disapointed I missed the Viggo film now. Admitedly I didn't know it was on, but even if I did I couldn't have watched it anyway as the selfish people downstairs unplugged the TV ariel so they could plug the DVD player in whenthey could have easily put their Telly and DVD player over the other side of the room and not unplugged the ariel.

Happy Birthday Dom! For a few days ago! Because I'm too lazy to show up! Uh... yay!

And speaking of Viggo Mortensen in other films roles, am I the only one who thinks he looks sooooo different? I watched GI Jane and spent this entire movie thinking 'is that him?'. I had to wait to the credits to make sure.

I finallyyy saw the Goonies last night! HE HAS MY SURNAME! (So does one of the script writers in lotr.) Sean Astin's character has my surname! rah I got excited! And speaking on the lovely hobbit!

A few years... Well, the Muggle Informer, or the Muggle Informer turning up in a lotr website ;)

Rev goes and pouts

01-17-2003, 05:52 PM

hey, I don't know you and you probably don't know me but are you handsome, single, rich and little over 20 and live somewhere near me? *flushes her eyelashes*

:p

Revenant
01-17-2003, 07:01 PM
Oh I know you, and you know me...and I meet a few of those standards...I think...:) ;) PM me sometime, we'll hook up. :D

Which one of them, to be precise? :p (hmm...did I spell that right? :o)

Revenant
01-17-2003, 07:08 PM
Which ONE!? Oh well, ;) I am handsome, or so I am told...:p The strong and silent type.

Rev smiles a bit then disappears behind a curtain

are you Dead?? :eek:

Revenant
01-17-2003, 07:16 PM
Rev sighs and pops out of his hiding spot. He walks over to Elfëa and looks her straight in the eyes

Do I look dead to you? :p ;)

He shakes his head then walks off to find some food

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 07:19 PM
Hmm... well, there's been corpses walking around before so :p

Revenant
01-17-2003, 07:21 PM

Dead people don't eat, plain and simple. ;)

Oh. I thought they feasted on (hu)man flesh... as I do ;) :p

Revenant
01-17-2003, 07:25 PM
Hm...I do say, are you still searching for pure(virgin) males to feed on? And I try not to feast, I quite like normal food. Reminds me of my better days as a vampire. ;)

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 07:27 PM
Nah...

I can live without those pure male virgins... (poor things after all ;))

but just playing around :p

At the moment I'm not eating anything cause I ate all the chocolate I had... :o

Revenant
01-17-2003, 07:30 PM
That's good then...;)

Rev waves his wand a little and a supply of chocolate appears before Elfëa

A peace offering. :D

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 07:32 PM
and we didn't even fight yet? :cool:

hmm... you don't expect to share, do you? Cause I hate sharing... ;) :p

Revenant
01-17-2003, 07:34 PM
Nah, it's yours, but I'm sure you can find a decent way to repay me for such a lovely gift. ;)

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 07:36 PM
Decent?

You expect me to behave? ;)

Revenant
01-17-2003, 08:11 PM
Decent doesn't necessarily mean you have to behave. ;) Just that it's something equally as enjoyable and wonderful as chocolate is to you. ;)

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 08:13 PM
:p But if you behave decently...

nevermind... I'm bad at thinking at this hour...

chocolate's good, but I guess I should have warned you :p... it gives me headache sometimes...

Revenant
01-17-2003, 08:14 PM
Rev thinks for a minute or two then become enlightened

If you get a headache, we can go back to my room and you can lay down. I'll give you a nice massage so you'll feel better. ;) :) Only if you get a headache though. :p

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 08:18 PM
:rolleyes:

Nope :p If I get a headache it'll turn to migraine and then I might end up puking on you :p

But what I wouldn't sometimes give for a good massage... ;)

Revenant
01-17-2003, 08:21 PM
Rev nods in affirmation to Elfëa and leads her to his room room

So...closes the door behind him...want to just lay down over there? I'm in a giving mood tonight. ;)

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 08:25 PM
Giving mood, indeed?

Well, if you are, can you give me heaven and stars and the moon from the sky? :p

Stardust
01-17-2003, 08:29 PM
Only I can give the stars.:mad:
so don't be asking him.

01-17-2003, 08:29 PM
Hmm...He shrugs...I can try, or you could settle for less...;)

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 08:31 PM
Stardust - read Neil Gaiman's Stardust? :) (love it)

I'm but a mere stargazer...

and my love for stars goes stronger than living force in my earthly body...

damn. I really want to write something tonight. :)

Revenant
01-17-2003, 08:33 PM
Rev watches the two women and slowly backs out of his room

I think I'll let you 2 be. ;)

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 08:35 PM
What, you don't like cat fight? ;)

Except we aren't fighting, are we???? :confused:

And now I really perhaps should write something so I can say I've done something today...

Revenant
01-17-2003, 08:39 PM
I dunno, Star seemed quite angry at your for asking for the stars...I thought she was going to beat you down. ;)

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 08:43 PM
Oh. :(

But I can always ask, can't I? ;) I mean, I'm Star-Spirit after all :p (Elfea translates from Quenya to english "star-spirit" :p)

Revenant
01-17-2003, 08:47 PM
Rev hands her a small globe that has a bright light shining from the center

;) Nah, you can't ask, you must take.

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 08:48 PM
Must I?

But what if I do not truly want what I ask for, and only ask for the asking?

After all, the price of getting what you want is getting what you once wanted...

Revenant
01-17-2003, 09:03 PM
Rev looks at her a bit oddly

Uhh...:confused: Anyway, I'll be your personal slave. ;)

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 09:06 PM
hmm... can't remember asking for a personal slave... :confused:

But if you really want to... hmm... you can start by doing my laundy :p If I hate something more than doing the washing up it's doing laundry :p

After that... you could cook for me... I'm starting to get hungry...

Revenant
01-17-2003, 09:10 PM
Rev sighs slightly, not meaning to be that kind of slave, but it works for him anyhow

Hmm laundry....;)

He laughs to himself as he goes to gather her clothing

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 09:12 PM
:p of course I knew :p

But so far I haven't met a male online who resists doing the laundry for a lady ;)

hmm... looks at the clothing she's wearing...

wonder if these need washing too??? ;)

Revenant
01-17-2003, 09:14 PM
:o

I do believe that is something that we should ponder over a bit more privatly...unless the muggle informer has changed greatly since the last time I was in it...

Elfëa
01-17-2003, 09:16 PM
hmm... I think so too :p

But alas, I'm giving it in for tonight and will retire to my lonely room somewhere on this isle. :)

May tomorrow bring something to do... ;) (but no laundry please :eek: )

01-17-2003, 09:19 PM
Hmm, quite. I bid you a goodnight and a fair morrow. ;)

I think "Lady of the Stars" is something like "Keeper of the Keys" and "Lady of the Wood".. if that clarifies things at all. :D

Oh, and Rev... no one can handle me :p

01-19-2003, 07:29 PM
By the way Elfëa, it's : kiss: here (without the space) It's really confusing, I know. ;) I think it would do you good to go around kissing people, and you could theorectically use your tongue for that too...;)

Elfëa
01-19-2003, 07:35 PM
:p maybe...

I wasn't saying anything about that, was I? :p

yeps, I like the tongue :p much better than just :kiss:

:p :o :p

You like the tongue?

Rev raises a curious eyebrow

And nothing could ever beat :kiss: It rules everything. ;)

:D It *RAINED* this morning. It actually rained!!!!!!!!! I always miss rain in the winter, there's nothing like a good rainshower. Especially when you've been forced to look at snow for a month nonstop.

... I can see the grass outside. :D

(edit) That's a gorgeous sunset!

Elfëa
01-29-2003, 04:04 PM
Hey, I can see it all the time :p

It's green here... even if there are no leaves on the trees...

I dislike the rain here. Cause it's too windy for rain...

Fleurdelacour

Woo, the snow here was pretty cool, we had a blizzard during break, but it had all melted by lunch because the clouds decided to move on, leaving sunshine :rolleyes:.

I'm not going to Orlando, but I'll be about an hour away from him.. "it" I mean. :D

:D I've just finished packing... I'm amazed I managed to fit all of my stuff into one suitcase and a backpack.

Granted, I had to take all of my Tolkien books and HP books OUT of my backpack first, but I'll live with schoolwork, CDs, Unfinished Tales, and RotK. :)

Welcome to our house, GG! :hug: I don't know who's in what house anyway, people only post in this thread and the Ravenclaw thread. ;)

Simon... he's the horribly rude British guy, isn't he? I mean, insulted people who truly suck is one thing, insulting people who aren't too bad is entirely another. Not to mention insulting 6 year old boys..

Nonetheless, American Idol is an incredibly funny show. We're adapting it in Spanish class for our Spanish IV video. :D It's going to be SOO funny.

And I've NEVER heard anything about British people only brushing their teeth once a day. Do you know what state that contestant was from?

As for smilies, leo uses ":nose:" religiously, and I know quite a few people who use ":barf:" every once and again. The sleepy one is just pointless, and I don't like ":cool:".

Hehehe.. speaking of Michael Jackson, he wasn't too happy with that in depth interview... (surprise)

From IMDb:
Pop superstar Michael Jackson has hit out at the makers of the explosive British TV documentary on his life - and accused journalist Martin Bashir of "betraying him." Jackson has released a statement saying he is "devastated" by the show - which pried into the reclusive star's personal life - and is angry it gave the impression he abuses children. The statement reads, "Today I feel more betrayed than perhaps ever before, that someone who had got to know my children, my staff and me, whom I let into my heart and told the truth, could then sacrifice the trust I placed in him and produce this terrible and unfair program. Everyone who knows me will know the truth, which is that my children come first in my life and that I would never harm any child." The show aired on the UK's ITV1 network on Monday night, attracting a massive audience of around 15 million - and is due to be screened in the US Thursday. But Jackson feels details of his personal life were "grossly distorted", particularly his admission he shares his bed with children. The statement adds, "Michael is devastated and feels utterly betrayed by the British television program, 'Living with Michael Jackson, '" adding that he regarded the show as "a gross distortion of the truth and a tawdry attempt to misrepresent his life and his abilities as a father. Michael feels deeply angry that the program could have led viewers to conclude that he abuses children in any way. Michael Jackson has never, and would never, treat a child inappropriately or expose them to any harm and totally refutes any suggestions to the contrary." The singer singles out Bashir - who was chosen after his controversial televised interview with Diana Princess Of Wales - for particular disregard. He adds, "Michael is deeply upset that the program sensationally sets out to use two or three pieces of footage giving a wholly distorted picture of his behavior and conduct as a father. Michael believes that what was eventually broadcast was a salacious ratings- chaser, designed to celebrate Martin Bashir and which was indifferent to the effect on Michael personally, his family and his close friends."

I really don't see any problem with homosexual people, and I don't understand why countries, groups of people and the like are against them. Personally, they have never done anything to hurt me and even if they did, I wouldn't hold a vendetta against their choice of lifestyle. Makes me wonder what in this world is worth saving if their is a war to be faught.

Also, in the Second Coming (v good, v contraversial ;) ) which was about Steven Baxter, the new Jesus, who came back as a Man City supporter, and this gay man in the bar was telling Steve when the third testement is written, make sure you say its ok to be gay.

I don't believe on God, not since 9/11, but if there is a god, surely he wants his people to be happy, and to love everyone?

Hmm, I find it harsh to blame god for everything that's gone wrong in the world. I believe that we're his creation, and we got out of hand. He gave us the ability to make our own choices, and I think we didn't turn out exactly how he wanted us too, but he won't interfer because he said he wouldn't in the bible. That's why 9/11 happened, and the holocaust...or you could take a pessimistic sort of view about it, and those things happened for population control....just like the cause for abortion. As for homosexuality, people are just ignorant jackarses. I can't stand prejudice or racism. All of it just doesn't make any sense. It's going to be interesting in the future since white people are becoming a minority, I wonder how we'll deal with it. I hope that the non-white people will be the better people and not make us needlessly suffer as we did to them.

I really wanted to stay out of the homosexuality discussion, because I don't want to offend anyone, but you guys are confusing homophobic with thinking homosexuality is wrong.

A "phobia" is a fear, you all know that. I'm not afraid of homosexuality, I don't have an irrational disgust towards it, but I think it's wrong.

You all have a right to believe what you what about God, or the gods, or whatever. I believe in God, I believe in the Bible. But God is NOT homophobic. He created the world, he has a right to declare good things good, and bad things bad. And he says homosexuality is bad. Case closed. He also says sex before marriage is wrong, but that's an ENTIRELY separate argument which I don't have the energy to get into.

That being said, I'm not homophobic. I have friends that are gay, and I don't agree with them, but they're still my friends, and I value their opinions. I value amrael's opinions, and I think she's a very smart and insightful poster (with GREAT taste in villians!).


As for homosexuality, people are just ignorant jackarses
Kain, does that mean that because I think it's wrong, I'm an ignorant jackarse? I find that appalling.

FleurD, I know a lot of people blame God for allowing 9-11 to happen, but I find that a very sad viewpoint. If you want to blame anyone, blame Osama. Or Satan. God doesn't cause things to happen, but he isn't going to pop in and change something every time something bad happens. Things like 9-11 happen because there's evil in the world, and they help us grow.

Like Colli said, its easier to blame things on God (or whatever you call the higher power amongst us). Its easy to put the blame on a seemingly distant Divine rather than take responsiblity ourselves. Like Colli said, bad things that happen (on any scale) should help us grow and change, and take RESPONSIBILITY. I am not really just referring to 9/11 here, but to the world in general. Its time humanity took the responsibilty to OBEY God and take care of each other. (Ok, that's WAY off track now, sorry)

But about the homosexuality thing....I normally avoid heated discussion about this kind of thing, because I don't like to be involved in anything that is divisive and that causes disunity. But I just thought that I would put my two cents in as well. I am not afraid of it either. Nevertheless, I believe that it is not a natural state of being. I have known homosexuals, but that doesn't mean I condone their lifestyle.(Though of course not all homosexuals make the same lifestyle choices ). That also does not mean I hate gay people. Au contrair! In fact, my own brother has struggled with this issue for much of his life....
Maybe this will sound really mean, but I believe homosexuality can be overcome. I know many people do not think of it as something that even needs to be 'overcome,' but that is just my religious beliefs.
My religion also stresses the importance of chastity before marriage, (I'm 18, still a virgin thank God... and plan to be for a while yet, hehe. ;) But as Colli said, that's a WHOLE different topic)

I sincerely hope I have not offended anyone with my views, I just thought I should let Colli know she wasn't the only one.:)

There was a series of programmes on Channel Four :notworthy (best channel, provides me with Friends, Six Feet Under, Fraiser, Graham Norton, and docomentaries!) anyway, about homosexuality, this included gay men, and lesbian women, and gaydars! Not forgetting gay animals!

Well, this gay man went over to a little town in Florida I think it was, and went around investegating all these animals that had been killed, because they were gay! This white middleaged farmer typa-bloke had killed his own dog, because he tought the poor ole thing was gay! Sniffing other male doggie's arses, that kinda thing ;) The man investigating, then received abuse from the bloke who had killed the dog! It made me so mad!

On another Channel Four programme, Without Prejudice, my favourite programme at the mo. You can win &pound;50,000 if the panel think you deserve it. You get racists, homophobics (what ever you want to call them) all sorts of people, then the true Bohemians :D

Well, it makes you scream and shout at the telly! The desisions some people make about the people. One man, he was gay, but a person on the panel (ooh, an old man :rolleyes: ) said he wouldn't give him the money because he was gay! But would be friends with him... Argh, made no sense, he thought he was a lovely bloke and all, but wouldnt give him the money! why?!

Kain, you're only 16???? Shocker of the week!!! I always assumed you were early 20s...

For me, religion isn't just a side hobby, it isn't something you "do" with your parents a few Sundays out of the year. My religion, my beliefs about God, those ARE my life. They are my rules for life, and I don't think that's ignorant. It's my discipline, and staying within what I believe God wants me to do actually helps me to grow. I just grow within those boundaries. I don't think by not having sex and not drinking and not doing drugs and not swearing that I'm missing out on life experience. Do you feel better after having had sex because you now have more life experience than me, in that regard?

I know there are tons of possibilities out there, but that's kinda what religion is. My religion doesn't have a specific name, but I'm a Christian. And not Christian in the sense of "everyone who believes in God and Jesus", Christian in the sense of following the words of the Bible to the fullest extent. And to me, the idea of God creating the world seems a lot more probable than a big bang or a slime pit, and it's what I believe, not what I was told.

Another thought, if your "religion" is the church you go to occasionally, or the church your parents go to, and you don't even know what it's stance is, then I might suggest that it's not your religion. Religion isn't like a custom user text, it isn't a title, it's a way of life.

You cant help who you fall for, man or women. Homosexuality is determined by hormones, and genes. You can't help it, you don't choose it. It just happens. And is heart wrenching when your hormones go lesbian for a year, and you have feelings for one of your best friends... :(

Colli
02-14-2003, 04:59 PM

You may not be able to control your feelings, at least initially, I believe you CAN control who you love. I'm not one of those "There's only one right person out there for you" people, I believe you can meet a truly wonderful person and make yourself fall in love with that person. Movies and TVs shows aren't always right. ;)

I still don't believe homosexuality is even natural in humans. God didn't create us sinners (contrary to what many people believe), God created us good, and sinless. All evil was brought into the world by Satan (through Adam and Eve, you've all heard the story). And I think if we're going to judge whether something's good by whether or not animals do it.. we shouldn't rule out cannibalism.. ;) And animals can't sin, so it completely misses the point, anyway. :D

Anyway, that's only my opinion :p

And I still own a bible - which is white, not black :p (hmm.. should I get black one? And black candles?? :D remembers that they're not allowed to have candles in the halls :mad:

When you're younger, it's normal to have crushes on people you admire - were they opposite sex or yours. It's the way how your sexuality develops :p

I consider myself as het - but it wouldn't be a problem for me if I were lesbian or bi. I can accept that on myself, even if there are many things in my that I can't accept now. :rolleyes:.

Fleur -well, at least you didn't (hopefully) try to hit on your gay friend! :eek: (when you didn't know he was gay... or bi, whatever he says. I think he's gay. He's much more in to men :p)

Colli
02-15-2003, 12:09 AM
:trout: Elfea. Thanks for the 10 cents. ;) The Bible may have been written by HAND by men, but God sent the Holy Spirit to inspire those men. Someone who has truly studied the Bible, even if from a nonreligious angle, and realizes that evidence shows that the original texts were indeed written over the time span that they were written in, and who sees how everything fits together so perfectly, beyond human ability to do so, would have to see that Deity was behind it. People I'm not willing to believe are men that come in 1900-2000 years after Christ lived and try to say "Hey, look at my creed book. This is what God told me." And then they go changing it every few years saying that they never really saw in the first place. That they were mistaken.

Try to imagine you starting to write a story. And say you write something that you think's gonna happen in the future. Say thousands of years later it happens. And someone writes it down. And every detail of what's going on fits together. Look at JKR. Even with her constant editing. Even with her editors, all the publishers, there are still mistakes. There are still plot points that don't quite fit. You'd think in a volume as large as the Bible, it'd be full of them. Mere men did not write the Bible. :)

There's no law about an age of consent for gay women in the UK, Fleur. :)

Religion isn't like a custom user text, it isn't a title, it's a way of life.
Colli, your faith is very admirable. :) I always like to see people who have strong beliefs sticking to them.

I think the argument about gay animals isn't "animals do it, so it must be right," it's "animals do it, so it must be natural - not something you choose." If God made the world, then things which are natural surely can't be bad?

And I feel I can't agree with the idea that you can be in control of who you love - a lot of problems are caused by the fact that you can't. Where would Romeo and Juliet be if they'd sensibly chosen not to fall for people who their families hated? (The answer: they'd be a lot less dead ;). Of course, they'd also make a much less good story. ;) )

As a commeted Christian the way I interperate it is that it is not wrong to have feelings, it's wrong to act upon them

I also have a Youth bible which I find immensly useful and that pointed out that homosexuality is mentioned twice in the bibel, once alongside a whole load of other sexual sins and another time with eating too much.

There is no worse sin. We are all sinners, whether we lie or have a homosexual relationship. Perhaps people should just stop being so hypocritical.

Colli, if you believe in something that someone else wrote, that's following them...and you said yourself that that men wrote the bible many years ago, and that these men were special men, inspired by the holy spirit....Even men of god have biased towards certain things and it reflects through unconcious actions. The bible is not perfect, the bible is not the be all-end all. Since men wrote it, it is bound to have flaws. As for my religion, I formed my own opinions and thought about everything I needed to, I call myself a presbyterian, but that is just a label, I live my own religion, with my owns opinions and beliefs. This entire debate started with homsexuals, and their standing. Some people believe that they just can't help it, they're born that way. Well maybe that's true...other think they can control it and they choose who they have feelings for, and choose there lifestyle. That could be true also. Who knows, no one does. Because of the fact that we arn't the very first humans on earth, all our opinions are biased by view of our parents, and our parents-parents. Colli if you were raised in a Ku Klox Klan household, you would more then likely believe in their ideals, just because that's why your parents believed in. If you were raised believing that the color 'red' was actually called 'purple', you would go around calling 'red' things 'purple', until society called you different and you may change, you may not. The point is, I can't hold my opinions in the highest regard, because it's the way I was raised, but I also believe that once we come more of age we start basing more of our opinions on experiance, and the people we are around, more then what we were raised with. Humans are imperfect because we can think. As long as we can think, we will never be able to have world peace, or eliminate all the evil in the world....and back to my point (kind of), that's why I find it harder to believe in the bible, because it was written by men. So, there ya go, I guess...:)

Actually, I think my Mum belives in God - and our school education is biased - our religious studies class is Lutheran. (but our parents have the choice to put us to Orthodox or non-religious class...)

I cannot know if some people can change themself and their sexuality, but I cannot know if people can't stop being what they are.
Both opinions are possible.

Rev - quite agree. Could also point out that our lives are different and the society and living conditions have changed loads from the times when Bible was written. But is it taken in account when reading it? When we were taught Bible at school, it was. But it was because what our teacher was - she was great... (well, actually, can't remember doing that much religious studies, we mostly had these debates about - tralalaaa- "gay priests - woman priests" allowed or not... and about making babies :p and stuff :p)

When it comes to things like that, I never listened to my parents, I was like "So what, a man and a man, or a woman and a woman love each other, so they're kissing... And the point is?" or "So, Sandra's skin is dark brown, doesn't mean she's bad!" or "Somehow killing all those Iraqis for Bush's pleasue is a good idea!"


I cant follow m religeon, or ex-religeon I should say, not because men wrote it or anything, its because I can't follow something anyone has written, if JKR or JRRT had written the bible and still said the things I don't agree, then I wouldn't follow it. I cant be dictated to, I can't sit in Religeous Education lessons, and be told that somehow, a bloke called Jesus made some bloke called Bartimaeus who was blind, well, not blind, he could see! :rolleyes:

And I do quite agree with you Elfea. At the time the bible was written, things were a lot different...the same debate is used for the American constitution and some of the rights that people are given these days...also voting procedures. There's no way that the people that wrote the bible could forsee the advancements that the human race has come up with. The might just faint the sight of a shiny knife.

Amb - I think it has something to do with a passage I could quote from memory in Finnish... Something to do with "women stay quiet in the church" or something like that.
It has become a saying in Finnish - the translation.

I think I was influenced when I was younger by a kid's book where a passage saying along the lines "everyone's going for the same God by their own ways" - it made sense to me then.
I mean, if there can be only one God - then there must just be different ways to him/her/it. Not all the other religions can be wrong - not only one way can be right.

If there is God he/she/it is way above us and therefore we're foolish (sorry, if use of that word feels offensive, not meant to :)) to belive that we can interpret things as he/she/it wants them be.

I believe in possibilities - when it'll come for me to choose my way... *shrugs* hope that day won't come too soon.

"Somehow killing all those Iraqis for Bush's pleasue is a good idea!"
FleurD, put yourself in our place. Saddam Hussein is sitting in Iraq, he's been making all these bombs and missiles for YEARS, biding his time. We know he has him, that fact is obvious.

Al Qaeda wasn't really hurting us during the Clinton admin, was it? But he knew they were there, he knew they were a threat. But no one wanted a war.. they wanted "peace". Maybe if Clinton would have been more aggressive 9-11 wouldn't have happened.

So Saddam Hussein's just in Iraq, he's not hurting anyone! The world wants PEACE right? We have peace!

Not defending ourselves does not ensure peace. Who says we should wait until Iraq attacks us, and more people die, for us to attack? We didn't ask for 9-11.

FleurD, put yourself in our place. Saddam Hussein is sitting in Iraq, he's been making all these bombs and missiles for YEARS, biding his time. We know he has him, that fact is obvious.

Al Qaeda wasn't really hurting us during the Clinton admin, was it? But he knew they were there, he knew they were a threat. But no one wanted a war.. they wanted "peace". Maybe if Clinton would have been more aggressive 9-11 wouldn't have happened.

So Saddam Hussein's just in Iraq, he's not hurting anyone! The world wants PEACE right? We have peace!

Not defending ourselves does not ensure peace. Who says we should wait until Iraq attacks us, and more people die, for us to attack? We didn't ask for 9-11.


The fact isn't obvious, if it was, then why were there peace marches all over the world yesterday? 1 million people marched in this very city yesterday, against the war, 1 million people from all over the country, and I'm sure there are many more millions who couldn't make the march who disagree with the war terribly.

War isnever right. War is never just. As far as most Brits are concerned, we haven't seen enough evidence to go to war. In WW2 there was pleanty of evidence.

No one wants war. And until we see proper evidence, REAL evidence, then I'll carry on campaigning.


But the sad fact is. We're discussing war. :(

wonders briefly if the discussion should be in current events ;)

Can someone tell me when war has been the answer? - it has only created more war and destruction. All through history. But then again, history does repeat itself - we never learn. :(

and that's about all what I'm going to say - cause I can't really care. Perhaps it makes me a bad person, but I know I'm too messed up to understand the world wide shceme which politicans fight over everyday.

My opinion is there are times when we do need to go to war, look back at WW2, Hitler had to be stopped, although I will agree with the rest of you now is not one of those times

Why did you buy an expensice office chair?

I dont need one ;) I'm sitting on those funky Ikea chairs shaped in an s, its black, and infront of the telly, near the fridge :D

Doing my hair like Carrie in Sex in the City ;) She nicked my name, so I'll nick her hair!

Revenant
02-16-2003, 03:24 PM
I bought one because my other chair broke, and I needed a new chair. So I spent a lot of money on one. :) My hair is kinda sticking out all over, I would take a picture of it with my cam if I wasn't so lazy and still in bed. (Yes, I am typing from my bed) I have few ambitions for the day...

I hate winter. Did I ever mention how much I hate winter?

You know what I've done the past week? Since Sunday morning at about 7 AM, I've been sitting in an eletrically-challenged county, in my freezing cold house, covered in blankets and 3 layers of clothing, CRYING.

Ice storms SUCK.

But at 1:05 today, I sat down my (brother's) copy of Hitchhiker's Guide and stared at my ceiling wondering for the grillionth time if the power was EVER going to get fixed, and to my utter astonishment, the lights came on.

Thus ensued 5 minutes of running around the housing SHRIEKING, and then I got online. :D Nice to see you all again! ;)

Elfëa

I really suck at noticing that people are missing. :o

Hitchhiker's Guide to Galaxy gave me horrid nightmares when I read it. Never finished it cause the flu bug I had got worse. :(

I guess that was the cause of nightmares too... ;)

Even if I have to say I still keep having nightmares. Lately they've been Harry Potter ones. :eek:

Fleurdelacour
02-22-2003, 05:35 PM
I wondered where you'd gone lol, I notice these things ;)

My friend read Hitchhiker's guide... Said it changed her life!


I saw Catch me if you can at the weekend, and I actually liked Leonardo DiCaprio in it! lol...

Still want to see the Hours... Hmph... silly friends...

How nice is it that after I posted that and emailed Bridget, the power went out for another 2 hours?

Oh well. :D

:hug:s to everyone! (Even those who didn't notice that I was gone. ;))

I've just started So Long, and Thanks for All the Fis(ssssss)h! It's embarrassing that I've been trying to read HHG since August.. and I read the third book in one day... :o :D

I'm terribly amused, I just can't seem to remember who a lot of the characters are, and what a lot of the jokes are. I'm vaguely remembering something about dolphins and mice..

Remus
02-23-2003, 07:04 PM
Remus stumbles in after having woken up from about 48 hours sleep

Woo, it's half term finally! :D

The closest I've come to reading HHG was yesterday when I watched the whole of it on DVD at my boyfriend's house. It seemed bizarre (to say the least). My philosophy teacher is constantly quoting from it so I understood loads of the more philosophical meanings to it (which is quite scary). I really want to read it now, it seemed to be the sort of book I'd end up reading. :D

Nice to see you back Colli :)

We're talking about a book, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I believe the conversation started about here:

Yeah, I find it quite sad too, especially when people have written really nice comments in my book and I know I'll probably never see them again after the exams. But then again, it is a very happy thought that I only have another 8 hours of school left.

I can't remember what I was assessed on - it all disappeared into a blur of panic when I was trying to think what to say.

Good luck in your art exam, and happy birthday Star :)

Hello again, I'm back after a short absence and wanted to check in with my House:) How is everyone doing?

I got carded today at the arts and crafts store because I wanted to buy workable spray fixative for graphite drawings and the cashier thought it was paint and people under 18 can't buy spray paint. She thought I was under 18! I'm 30! What a compliment, eh?:) Then again, she also mistook fixative for paint...*grumble*

Speaking of British TV shows...was anyone here a viewer of Peak Practice when it was on? That Jamie Bamber *licks lips* I never got to see the show as it doesn't play here but I have seen pictures from it. And pictures of Jamie Bamber are all good:) Was the show good or not? Was it sort of like St. Elsewhere or ER?

I love BBC America -- it's pretty much all I watch now -- it and HBO. They've never played Peak Practice on it but they've played Father Ted, Ballykissangel, The Office, Graham Norton (hilarious!), and one of my faves, Coupling. They really are wonderful. i could do without seeing Ground Force and Changing Rooms 4 times a day each, but the rest of the stuff is awesome. Jonathan Creek and Cracker (Robbie Coltrane) are both excellent mystery shows.

Kids, ya know...

Speaking in his normal voice again, starting to talk with a smile that's not all confident

What I'm sure she ment was to lock you guys out... Not in.

Ced grabs an old Shooting Star that was propped up against the wall and sweeps all Slytherins out of the house

He wonders off...

Whatever happened to passwords anyway.... And ye can't come boch tell more huffly-puffs are back! He adds to this with a shake of the fist

Not that hard to understand, is it Blood? 'Cause I can make it painfully clear if you need me to.

And, uh, qster? I'm fairly sure that Blood is a girl ;) Most of the people here are...

You're a Huffy Puffy, Ced! I'm soooooooo scared> :rolleyes:

BF leans against the locked door and puts a Bat Bogey jinx on it. Then she meanders back to Sexy Slytherin house

Ced sticks his head out of a window high above Hufflepuff houses door, looking around for BF and sees her standing with her back to the door

What, I can't call you Blood?? Kinda makes you sound more tough if you ask me... But if you don't want that ;)

He pops out of the small window down to her, and gives her a big, constricting hug, then apperates back into the house

BF latches onto Ced before he lets go and :kiss:

I guess you can call me Blood, if you REALLY want to... ;)

I've gotta go catch Melk, and get Achmed back! Later.

Chiana slips into the common room and sits in a comfy chair, pretending as if she always belonged

Blows bubbles lazily out of her wand tip

Oh Fleur... Posting at almost 3 o'clock in the morning? That's a bad Huff habit ;)

We should see which house has the most current members, I think we've really lost track since the last move.

Anyone know a cure for mossie bites that have made your upper arm go all hard, pink and swollen?
