Drawing (manga elves [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] );
Right on, Aredhel! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I'm not alone! I've gotten really into drawing because of LotR, mostly drawing characters in manga. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] And my mom thinks I'm even more psycho because of that. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] ilLOTRliterate parents.....

I draw lotr inspired stuff tooo...although all my warriors end up looking like 11 year old girls instead of fierce destroyers of evil. This is going to sound like a stupid question, but what is this "manga" you speak of?

I think that Lhunardawen meant that it looks as if she's in a world of her own. Autistic people have trouble relating to the outside world, although they can be exceptionally bright. Maybe I'm wrong and that's not what she meant at all, but that's what I take it as meaning.
I know that the reply is too late, but i haven't been posting lately...too much homework..

Anyway, you're right about that.

I've used my Elvish name as my name in school and people won't accept it!! How dare they!!

Hi Elanor!! I updated my fic! Just so ya know!
OK, LOTR HAS inspired me. In many ways.
I also attempted to braid my hair like Legolas'! I can do the back one right but I can't get the side ones right.

I write my fanfics! Yup! If it wasn't for LotR, my fic would never exist! NOOOOO!!! I wouldn't have any reviews! (I have 50!)

LotR has also made me put pointed ears on every person I draw who's ears are visible! The only people I don't put pointed ears on are the people who I think don't deserve pointed ears!

My handwriting is also LotR related! I put the little flamey thingies around titles, and I do the loopy stuff too like on the Ring Inscription! LOL!

In restaurants, when my dad wants a bottle of wine, I say, "Dad, can we get some Miruvor?" And because he's not a big LotR fangirl like me, he says, "I have never heard of that wine! Where's it from? It sounds like a Spanish name." This makes me almost die laughing. Then he asks me what I'm laughing at. All through this, my brother is rolling his eyes in an annoyed way. He likes LotR, but he's not hardcore like me. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Oh! For some reason, when I'm reading a school book or something in class, I look at each word, and pick apart the letters to make something LotR related! Am I mad? Or does everyone do that?


I'm also going to legally change my real name TO Elróthiel, and I'll name my kids Elvish names (if I have kids! I hate the little buggers!), and if I DON'T marry the real Legolas, then I'll do the next best thing! I'll change his name to Legolas, then I'll force him to grow his hair long and dye it blond so he'll at least LOOK like him! Oh! And I'll make him learn Sindarin!
[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Anyhoo, gotta go now! See ya!
Review my fic Elanor!!!

Namarié!
From
Elróthiel, the Elven Goddess of Hilariosity and Laughter!

Lesson Number One: DON'T walk around a shopping mall for five hours in new shoes that aren't trainers! Results will be blistery!

I should hope not... (Sorry, had to be said) And you're not the only one who does LotR stuff with books. It's just I do an awful lot of word halutionations. Like, it'll say sorry and I'll read it as Sauron. It kinda gets annoying when you're reading some of the books that I do... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Maikadurwen 06-20-2003 03:37 PM

yes along with all of you other lotr people i too have taken up new intrests

Maikadurwen 06-26-2003 06:25 PM

cool

Olorin 06-26-2003 09:27 PM

Hmm... Well I am thinking about painting my room something Middle Earthy.

purplefluffychainsaw 06-27-2003 06:34 AM

Yeah, my rooms going black and purple in the holidays because of one of my fic characters - Gilmor. I can't wait!

Nevvasaiel 06-27-2003 08:27 AM

yes yes, along with the standard hair-braiding, archery, fantasy books, writing and sketching, i've also developed an interest not only in swordfighting, but other kinds of combat too, which i plan to start learning (once i convince my parents it's not THAT dangerous...)

also, historical/ancient artifacts and stories in general, especially the middle ages, are becoming more and more intriguing.

one last bit of craziness: for my IGCSE French oral, i went on and on about elves, their history, their habits and their lives... i asked my teacher what the chances were of someone else doing the same topic... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
" oh-la-la, veddy close to zeRo, i vould say...."
and it went pretty well too!
( she fell in love with legolas' pic, if you were wondering)

Elvanui 06-28-2003 10:38 PM

My room IS middle earthy. I painted it twilight blue and put a couple thousand glowstars on my ceiling, added ethereal flowing curtains, several potter plants and *poof* Elvish inspired room
