One of my favorite quotes.

Good to see that you appreciate good literature

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-15-2008, 07:05 PM

Well, I had to have at least one good quality.

Oh, well, that's it, then.

Indeed!

Welcome, Empress Flynn! It's funny, because I know someone who's name is Flynn, and she recently got engaged! Makes me wonder if she is you... Probably not, though, since as far as I know, her "engagee" is not from Britain.

Long time, no talk... I've been spending most of my time on LLL and such. Hey, everyone who enjoys good literature! Check out the Narnia Trivia Forum! It's been Varna and I for a while... we need more guessers and questioners!

We very much need them - I can't remember the answer to the current question, and I don't want to cheat and look it up, so we're at a stale mate at the moment!

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-16-2008, 08:20 AM

Good morning.

I have two of my favorite things today...produce and politics.

Hehe... well thanks for the welcome!

And that IS funny, even if Flynn is not my real name lol... It's a character I made up for a story I was writing at the time

Still.. crazy small world out there... good luck to my Flynn twin with her engagement!

sisterandcousinandaunt · 09-16-2008, 09:44 AM

Welcome, Empress.

You've been away. You didn't tell me and you didn't give me a hug goodbye. *pouts*

Did you also learn about the weathersystem that is connected to those things?

Yes, we did. Well, now that A- level is done. I hope it went well. I didn't spend all 6 hours there, left about half an hour earlier. Answered all six questions, though my answer on the Risks of Finland was terribly short: only 1 1/2 pages.

Altogether I wrote 14 pages, that includes pictures I drew.

Only Swedish to go. After that, I get to be as lazy as a senior- year high school dude can be.

I missed the Riding course, but then again, it was for the experienced riders - which I'm not.

*adds self to the Sis pile*

Heh, time to play tackle with my pitbull. He needs a bath.

Noble Elf Lord · 09-16-2008, 12:59 PM

Have fun, sane.

**Mari** · 09-16-2008, 01:22 PM

SIX HOURS!?!? Oh my goodness! Thy can't expect you to sit through that competely focused now can they?

Noble Elf Lord · 09-16-2008, 02:09 PM

I'm afraid they do. 6 questions, almost each an essay, you don't think any lesser time would suffice? I think they should give us one hour more, so as not to panic. We get to have something to eat there, I had 3 double sandwiches, 2 bananas, one chocolate plate, and juice. Though I only ate 1 d sandwich, 1 banana, lots of choco and drank about half the juice (2 dl?). AND my hand (left) just died writing. But it's cool.

If my little advertisement hasn't attracted new followers, I'll give the answer and you can post a question. Sound fair? (I've not got any C.S. Lewis on me at the moment)

That's just plain funny! Anyhow, welcome very much to Entmoot!

*waves a little flag around* Yay for all of us Tolkien geeks!

**Mari** · 09-16-2008, 02:58 PM

Noble, here they would have either given the exam in two goes, or they would have given you only 3 essay questions

*also waves a flag around*
