In Theatre Arts class, I had to memorize a monologue and present it in class...I found a good one--that was normal, it had nothing to do with LOTR...I got up to the front of the class, forgot it and winged it with whatever popped into my mind--which happened to be Lord of the Rings orientated. No one knew what i was talking about.
I ran after my Boyfriend crying, "My precioussss, we will have it, yes we will my precioussss."
My school sweater has my name, Daegwenn, on the sleeve.
I almost got kicked out of the theatres for talking too much...I was just trying to inform my friends who Elrond is...and Gandalf...and Aragorn...and Boromir...and Legolas...and Galadriel...and-well...you get the point.
I am known at Magic the Gathering tournaments for my elf/archer deck-dubbed proudly: My Legolas deck.

"And still of a winter’s night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,
A highwayman comes riding—
Riding—Riding—
A highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.
Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard.
And he taps with his whip on the shutters, but all is locked and barred.
He whistles a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord’s black-eyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord’s daughter,
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair"
Highwayman
