If you sleep with your eyes closed, or if you have ever had sniffling, sneezing, coughing, acheing, stuffy head, fever, and need to rest by taking Nyquil, then, you are definately not an Elf.

I agree with Legolas, for me wanting to be an elf isn't so much about mortality vs. immortality. I have always wanted to be an elf too because I love nature, art and music. When I was a little girl and wasn't allowed to read fantasy, I made up stories about noble beings who loved nature and I pretended that I was one of them. Imagine my excitement when I got older and read Tolkien and discovered that my childhood fantasies were elves! Sigh, but now I'm homesick for Lothlorien or Imladris...

Me too, I want to see Rivendell...
And I liked nature since I was a child. Really. I always thought of myself as an elf, even before I read Tolkien. When I read LotR, I understood my true destiny: I must become an elf!

Legolas, when you figure out how, let me know.

one doesn't have to be an elf to like arts and nature

unlike vanimdil i believe it is immortality, immunity to disease and sickness, keener senses having wisdom and power that goes beyond mortal keen
