I haven`t really done anything crazy yet, but one thing I would love to do is maybe sing Nimrodel`s song or the bath song at the school talent show or something. Well actually I have spoken elfish to some of my friends before, and after graduation at the restaurant with my friends I did get up and quote some of Bilbo`s farewell speach. That`s all I`ve done. I also yell "Crebain from Dunland" everytime I see any kind of bird(I said it to my freinds canary once, she got a little scared)

yay lots of insanity happily blossoming... I really want an elvish cloak like Arwen's for this winter! Or, maybe just fall, because winters here can be surprisingly cold. I'll have to make it myself though... But I did see a pattern somewhere. Sure I'll look really weird but I will stand out and thats the point!

I was actually half considering singing a lotr song at my school's talent show next year but because I will be a freshman in a new highschool, I don't think it would advisable to jump-start my reputation like that...

I'd want to memorize more Elvish and learn to write in Elvish.
I wanted to for a long time, then I fell in love with hobbits. I do know someone who gave me a piece of paper with my name in elvish text. (Not it's phonetic translation, like here on the Downs) I think I still have it somewhere...

I've remembered another...singing Hobbit drinking songs whilst walking through the grocery store...(wearing Hobbit cloak). And I once burned my feet walking barefoot across hot asphalt. Blisters on the bottom of your feet is not fun! I could barely walk at all the next day.

Narya Crazy things.

I write in Tengwar. Beleriandic, Sindarin, Quenya modes...you name it. Except Rúmilian.

It's become so much of a habit that I'm scared - and secretly thrilled - of what would happen if I ever wrote in Tengwar on tests.

But no, I can't speak Eldarin - Quenya or Sindarin - despite language lessons. And I haven't finished my First Age Noldorin garment. Nor have I even begun.

Oh, yeah - and I've deluded myself into thinking that I'm some silly son of Finrod.

Well if you did learn old Entish which would be a fine thing indeed you couldn't really say anything unless it took a long time to say, then again that would make what you said far more important I wager.

I would love to learn how to write in Tengwar, especially my name for starters, I did plan on doing it but it sort of went to the backburner. *Sigh*
