*enters*

Hey All Ali! How's it going?

ha no kidding! See what I've had to put up with?!

Yeah! And still no one else has posted in here!

*sarcastically* Oh why thank you ever so much! lol, whatever

*sarcastically* You are so very welcome Ali! BTW is Ali short for Alison (sp?) If you don't mind answering...

*looks around* hmm I guess I am. Good night!

And you are still the only one in here so Good Night!

Hey All Ali! How's it going?

lol . It goes well . How are you?

Yeah! And still no one else has posted in here!

Micah should be here at least! He and I pretty much go on the most .

*sarcastically* You are so very welcome Ali! BTW is Ali short for Alison (sp?) If you don't mind answering...

I don't mind. It's short for Alissandra. Yeah that's a long name . Most of my friends call me Alissandra but friends on the internet, and acquaintances, call me Ali...b/c it's shorter and easier to say. And I prefer it that way, I wish everyone called me Ali b/c no one can say Alissandra right .

oh btw, I borrowed Cannons and Heaven and Earth by Phil Wickham from one of my friends and they were both really good! I've had them 1 week and the total plays of his song are 140! I really really like him! I actually wrote a review of Heaven and Earth for my blog http://musical-maiden.blogspot.com/2010 ... -phil.html . Just saying b/c I know you like Phil Wickham's music, seeing you had an avatar of him for aaaaages .

And you are still the only one in here so Good Night!

lol good night again!

Wow, noone is around! Sorry to break up the Ali-Bejamin conversation. *goggles at the number of posts*

*isveryhyperbecausetanscdgotreleasedadayearlyonukitunesandijustdownloaded*
(^can anyone actually read this? For some reasons the only part that comes up as misspelled is "nloaded" )

Oh, sorry about that. "SquareOnions" is a name for anyone who visits (or used to visit) the Town Square. So yup... you're one yourself now!

Oh yeah, hence the 'square' I was thinking of literally 'square' onions. lol. Anyway, yay! I love onions with a passion.

bwahaha . *repeat* . I want to get Calendar Days too...can't find it where I usually get CDs though...maybe it's on Amazon. I can't get it anytime soon though. Too much money spent! Aaahh! yeah I'm a little hyper today...idk why. Probably still side effects from the concert .

(Hmm. This quote just doesn't look the same without all the smilies, but I'm not putting them all in)
You could always stoop as low as iTunes. I get the attraction of physical CDs though.
Concert? You mean TRS? Wasn't that ages ago? Just kidding.
EDIT: Forgot to say that, I love your signature.

I had my last final this morning! (Hurrah! )

Congrats!

I have a busy week ahead.. I think. At least now I have TAN's CD to keep me occupied, wish I could play it during classes.
It's even taking away the pain from this huge coldsore on my lip.
I love it already. (not the coldsore) And I'm not even at the end.

Gotta go practice piano.

*hurries into the Square* Wow, it's been almost a week since I've been in here! And now I have my braces on my teeth. My mouth hurt SO bad for the first couple days, but it doesn't bother me much anymore. It still hurts when I try to chew on food, though...oh, and the orphodontist said that once I get my braces off, I'll have to wear a retainer for the rest of my life! Augh, I hate retainers!

Also, yesterday evening I watched the first episode of BBC's Robin Hood! It was playing on TV, and I recorded episodes 1, 2, and 3. I've only had a chance to watch the first one so far, but I love it! Robin and Much are awesome!

Well now, moving on to ketchup...

Hello, Ruby! *waves back* It's good to see you too! I am doing wonderful, thanks. How are you?

NN95, that's cool! John Brooke was one of my favorite characters. Hope the play goes well for you!

QS, your brother says in a week and a half you might be able to chew again?! Thanks, that was real encouraging. I've taken 6 ibuprofens so far...

*sends a hug to CS and LL*

AslansCountry, I totally understand that. Riley is awesome! He has so many funny lines.
Thank you! Getting my braces on went fairly well, and taking lots of ibuprofen helped get rid of most of the pain.

Miss Rose, I asked my orphodontist, and he said that I'll only have to wear my braces for a year and a half, so I'm pretty excited about that.
I'm doing well, thanks! We visited my grandparents over the weekend. It was nice to see them again.
Aw, thank you! I know, Riley rocks! And yes, I have seen NT2. I liked it even better than the first!

*realizes how long she's been on the computer* Time flies by so fast when you're having fun. Now I must get some schoolwork done, though, so mortereve all!

~Lucy

Mortereve all! Sorry I haven't been around lately. With the play last week, things were too hectic. Well, the play's over (hurrah!) and I only have a few weeks of school left, so I should be on more often.

*waves to NN*

*waves back to Ella* How've you been of late?

Ok whatever you'd like. Or we can talk about something that'd be more controversial .

Yeah, sometimes debates are no fun when everybody agrees. Maybe you could give your thoughts on creation vs. evolution and/or on war, and if we all agree, then we can look to something more controversial.

*waves to Aslans Country*

Ahh, I see, Nick. That makes sense. And besides, it's still great practice whether you enjoy it or not. (I would think.)

Very true, it's good experience.

True, true. An important lesson to learn.

Yup, that's life, isn't it?

So how've you been lately?

Now it turns out that I will not be flying back up to Oregon but my Family is going to drive down here... It's all a bit confusing right now...
Yeah, I have been doing about 5 days a week sometimes 6 in really hot weather! It's hard sometimes but good..

I see. Well, I hope it all works out well.
Wow, that's a lot of work! I'm glad you're enjoying it.

I have been doing good thanks, and yourself? I actually have not been watching much of those, I have been so busy! How about you? You done with the first season?

Glad to hear it! I've been well, too. Yeah, true. You probably don't have much spare time, eh? Yep, I've watched the first season through twice.

Are you talking about me?

lol, the whole time you've been gone we've been talking about how your being gone is making the Square so slow.

Hey, congrats on your last final, LL! How did the school year go for you?

the orphodontist said that once I get my braces off, I'll have to wear a retainer for the rest of my life! Augh, I hate retainers!

Aw, that's awful! I'm done with braces and have my retainer now, and, honestly, I'd rather have my braces back. Maybe you'll get a permanent retainer, though, in which case it probably won't be so obtrusive in your mouth, and you'll never lose it!

NN95, that's cool! John Brooke was one of my favorite characters. Hope the play goes well for you!

Thanks, the play did go very well!

Well, I'm off. Mortereve all!

Mortereve, all!

*waves to Ben* Wow, I haven't seen you around here for awhile. You been doing well?
Oh, and... *feels rather stupid* How do you do the crossed-out text? I've always wondered. /random

Good to see a familiar purple post again, ~LL~! Congratulations on finishing your finals. How exciting! I started mine today... whoo-hoo...

Oh yeah, hence the 'square' I was thinking of literally 'square' onions. lol. Anyway, yay! I love onions with a passion.

Well, that's not too surprising... I did, too, when I first came. And really? Hurray! There aren't too many people who love onions.

Glad your teeth don't hurt as much anymore, Narnia Girl! Well... retainers aren't that bad... are they?

My orthodontist gave me a whole miniature bottle of ibuprofen when I got my braces on. I never really had to use them, though... I think I might've taken one? Something like that. I never really had much pain from my appliance or braces (except when they tightened them).

A year and a half? Ehh. You've had braces before, though, correct?

Oh, wow. That must have been fun. I haven't seen my grandparents for awhile, but I think we're having a family reunion this summer.

Oh, you did? I personally liked the NT1 better, though the second was great as well. Can't wait until the third comes out!

How did the play go, Nick?

Yup, that's life, isn't it?

Mm-hm!

I've been doing pretty well, thanks. Finals started for me this week, so... I've been kind of groggy and nervous lately. But I'll recover.

What about you?

Hello all! *Waves*

Oh, don't you just love tornado watches? The warnings, the heat, the rain, the glowing white sky? *Note sarcasm* That said, it is actually fairly peaceful here.

Yup, you said it in French (I'm assuming); I said it in Spanish. Three weeks isn't bad!

Yup! I'm taking French, I'm not very good at it, but it is fun. Yeah, but I only have a week off then I have a summer class, plus I need to get caught up in a lot of subjects. How about you? Any plans for the summer?

You're so nice, Winty.

I know, aren't I?

Hm... well, last week I re-read Ella Enchanted in less then 24 hours probably. (And had a night's worth of sleep and did some school besides.) I'm reading Sherlock Holmes...kind of. Other then that, not really... How about you?

Ooh, Ella Enchanted, good read. I'm reading a book by Dianna Wynne Jones, called the The Lives of Christopher Chant, it's taking me a long time to read it, though, since I have little spare time.

I'm doing pretty well, thanks, Winter. A bunch of tests and due-dates are coming up in the next two/three weeks, so I'm a wee bit stressed out at the moment... but I'll feel better once the weekend rolls 'round. What about you?

I know how that goes. Fortunately, I took my last Biology test on Friday and only have an Algebra test to look forward to. Two more weeks 'till school's out!

*waves back to Winter*

Hello, Benjamin! How do you fare?

See y'all!

oooh yay people!

Wow, noone is around! Sorry to break up the Ali-Bejamin conversation. *goggles at the number of posts*

now they are! Hey no problem, more people to talk to! Besides, who knows if he'll come on tonight .

*isveryhyperbecausetanscdgotreleasedadayearlyonukitunesandijustdownloaded*
(^can anyone actually read this? For some reasons the only part that comes up as misspelled is "nloaded" )

I knew after the first three words but then again I read your post in fave music. I'm still waiting to get my copy in the mail

(Hmm. This quote just doesn't look the same without all the smilies, but I'm not putting them all in)
You could always stoop as low as iTunes. I get the attraction of physical CDs though.
Concert? You mean TRS? Wasn't that ages ago? Just kidding.
EDIT: Forgot to say that, I love your signature.

lol yeah that would be a pain

Aaah no iTunes! I've only bought one CD off iTunes and I want to keep it that way, I regret it every day . I looooove my hard copies .

yup TRS, and it was about a month ago I think . But yeah, still kinda hyper from that but now I'm mainly hyper from the Owl City last night. I didn't actually go but I watched the live broadcast...twas awesome!

Thank you- me too! I've been kinda obsessed with Bryce since the concert, can you tell?

Yeah, sometimes debates are no fun when everybody agrees. Maybe you could give your thoughts on creation vs. evolution and/or on war, and if we all agree, then we can look to something more controversial.

exactly. Well about creation I believe God created the earth and everything in it in 7 24 hour days. And about war I'm still not sure...I'm a hippie at heart so I wish we had world peace and could talk things out and all that but I know that it's not possible so thus I think that wars are ok if it's for something that's important, like a country attacking us or just helping out another country from it's own government or another country. But I don't think we should have wars over oil and stuff like that. I think that's what you guys were saying too. I have an idea for another topic though!

TTFN

Good Mortereve everyone! I hope everyone is well?

Yeah, that's a great deal! So, you'd never seen the series when you bought the boxed set? I definitely agree that $50 would be a risky purchase is you weren't sure you were going to like it.

Yes, I hadn't seen the series before I bought the set, although I'm definitely glad I took the chance and did buy it! (I mean, if it wasn't a good series I probably would have regretted spending even $20.00 on it).

*chuckles at the quote in F2 sig* Have you finished Season 4, yet?

Yes indeed! We started Season 5 this past Sunday evening, and are a grand total of one episode in. But that one episode was really funny.

How did your play go? I hope it went well!

My birthday was excellent!! *points to the top of her post* That's about the only "big" thing I did.

Hurrah! And how is life for you? Anything new?

FF:
Hey! Well--tomorrow we're having the whole church over after--well, church. Then the day after that I get braces. And 2 days after that there's a surprise birthday party for our Pastor... He was born 5/5/55, and now he's turning 55, so.. yeah. Then the next day is piano, 2 days later we're having a sewing class at our house, the next day we're going to my Grandparents for Mother's Day after church, two days later our Foreign Exchange student is coming, the next day is violin lessons, and the list goes on. May is a hugely busy month for us.

<--- It does indeed sound like you've had a busy time of it- did everything come off okay? I hope so!

It's going all right, thank you! I still have roughly three weeks of school remaining, but... I'll manage! How about you? Life going well?

I'm glad to hear it! I'm technically done school, as we've finished up our "regular" classes (such as Family Bible "Class" every day) for the summer, but there's probably a few things left to be done...

Yes, I am, actually! That's so comforting, knowing that God is with us, that is. Makes me feel so much better even when my plate is still insanely full.

It is! It really really is! How are things going for you?

bwahaha . Don't worry, it's an easy mistake

Yes, it is. How are things going for you?

FF! Good to see you! *waves back* I'm doing wonderful, thanks! How are you?

Hurray! I'm glad to hear you've been well! I'm doing really well, thanks! How are the braces working out for you?

School and dance has been going great. I'm a little stressed about music, though. I'm finishing high school in two years and I don't feel like I have the experience or the talent to make music my profession. My schedule is going to be packed next school year, which I'm excited and a little worried about. I'm sure it will all turn out well. How are you doing?

I will be praying! Have you gotten any answers about the music thing yet? I'm pretty good, thanks! Really enjoying the spring/early summer weather, although lately it's been kind of...cold. >_>

*waves to everyone not mentioned in the above post*

Well...I should be off. Cheers all!

Well... hello there
I think it's been 6+ months since I've visited the square regularly?
Anyway... I'm quitting twitter and a couple other sites that I used to visit a lot, so I'll probably be on NarniaWeb much more now Since you guys are, I've concluded, the best group of people on all of the internet.
All righty... I will come back later! Good to be here again!

*two very familiar figures enter the Square discussing how long it's been since they stopped by*

Mortereve all! Sorry for disappearing there after my birthday.... Various stuff came up and I kept meaning to stop by, but never got around to it. Well, know I'm here and will be making a much overdue catch-up post.

Oh yes, before I begin I have a few pieces of news to share:

1. I finally saw Up over the weekend!!! The Royal Family agrees it is now one of our favorite films.

2. Saw Avatar over the weekend as well. I posted a full review of it in the Past Movie thread over in SO, sooo..... Hinty hint, hint.

3. Twilight Zone: the Movie arrived in the mail yesterday!!!! This was a late birthday present from KingLune, so I've been eagerly awaiting it's arrival. There will be a review of the album posted on my Blog sometime in the not so distant future.

*Cor and Vern walk over to the chocolate tree, grab a few chocolate covered apples and then take their seats at the fountain*

Alright, here we go:
-----------------------------

Going back to page 155

@ Djaq.

Why, thank you! I am very honored!

And you're the first person I'm quoting again! Hmm, this is starting to became a trend....

Glad you enjoyed the apple!!

*laughs* (I'm sure you are )

Thank you! That helps

*puts away fan and girly like act* Vern tells me I do that too well. Perhaps I should stop...

Quite welcome! I'm just glad I know enough about movies to tell you were the quotes come from instead of simply saying "Uhh, some movie we like..."

I'm sure he did! Now, Vern, be nice to him...just this once...His birthday is tomorrow, you know.

You'll be glad to know that Vern was very nice to me on my birthday.

*Yes, but I made up for it on Saturday. *

*reads through Cor's post* Wow!! Thank you sooo much!!! I am VERY honored! And thank you muchly for the treats! They look delicious!

Quite welcome!! I hope you enjoyed them to the fullest. It was a pleasure.

I have had a wonderful day today so far! And it has been even better from the wishes I have received on NarniaWeb!

Great!! It's great to have you (and Flam) around on the forum.

*smiles over all the fun on April 30th*

@ Mal. I'm afraid I'll have to use quote boxes with you as well, seeing as how over a week has gone by....

*waits to be recognized* Otherwise, would I have to go through a Square initiation all over again? And thanks! I hope so too!

Haha! No, I don't think we even have a Square initiation.... Nasty things they are. Makes one late for dinner.

I first read that as cooking marshmallows and spam together...like sort of a spam s'more, perhaps? And then I realized they were cooked separately. At least, I hope so...

*gags* Yuck! That would be most disgusting and disturbing! Oh yes, cooked separately and at different times.

You're a Merlin fan? I didn't know this! Have you seen both seasons?

*laughs heartily at the Royal Family's...interesting afternoon*

More of a passive Merlin fan, but still a fan I suppose. I've only seen part of season 1 on youtube. I like what I've seen, though!

@ NN. Well, I listened to: Legends of the Fall, The Dark Knight and Jumanji.

@ Lucy. Thanks for the belated birthday wish! I had a great day!

@ Djaq, again. Congrats! You're getting two separate segments of my catch-up post!

I'm sorry to add to the already sugar-filled day, but we thought you would like them. I'm glad they have your approval!

That was perfectly fine, I made sure not to over do it. Oh, they mostly certainly met and exceeded my approval! Thanks again!

Yes, we knew we couldn't let you down after we had said that we were going to give you one! Notice that we decided against the ruffle...
Thank you, Vern! I'm very happy to hear that you approve!

Thank... you. *clears throat* It's as lovely as I was expecting it to be. Thanks for deciding against the ruffle.

*Aye, it does! *

@ Rose.

Aww, it seems that I missed Cor's birthday celebration. How disappointing. Ah well, the refreshments looked delicious!

And, as I'm afraid I have no other gift to offer, will a hug suffice? HAPPY [belated] BIRTHDAY! I hope you had a wonderful time! (And do post a picture of you wearing that apron sometime!)

You were missed at the celebration. Hmm, or should that be ----> No, I think--- > is better.

A hug will suffice quite nicely. *accepts the hug and returns one of his own * I had a most splendid time, thanks!

skims.....

@ Ruby. *chuckles at Ruby's excitement over the chocolate tree*

Yes indeed, chocolate is the greatest. Just don't tell NN that.

*waves to: Winter, Ben, Ali, LL, Aslans Country, Miss A and Fanny*

@ Miss A. Welcome back to the Square! BTW, I checked out your youtube channel a few weeks ago. While I'm not familiar with the pop songs you cover, I was very impressed with your covers of LotR and Narnia. Great work!

Have you ever listened to or thought of covering any of the music from Legends of the Fall?

------------------------------------

Whew! I figured this would be a long catch-up post.... *munches on his apple before posting*

Alright, that gets everything for today. I'll try to stop by here more regularly, if Life doesn't get in the way.

Talk with ya'll later!

*Cor and Vern exit the Square*

Mortereve all!

How did the play go, Nick?

It went very well! Probably one of our best plays yet.

I've been doing pretty well, thanks. Finals started for me this week, so... I've been kind of groggy and nervous lately. But I'll recover.

Ah, that stinks, but at least it means your almost done with school. I don't have official "finals" per se, and thank goodness, because I have an enormous amount of things to do these last few weeks of school.

Yup! I'm taking French, I'm not very good at it, but it is fun. Yeah, but I only have a week off then I have a summer class, plus I need to get caught up in a lot of subjects. How about you? Any plans for the summer?

Ah, I see. I'm taking Spanish, and I love it! That's too bad you have summer classes and that you need to get caught up. Nope, we really don't have any specific summer plans, except that we always visit my grandparents down south.

exactly. Well about creation I believe God created the earth and everything in it in 7 24 hour days. And about war I'm still not sure...I'm a hippie at heart so I wish we had world peace and could talk things out and all that but I know that it's not possible so thus I think that wars are ok if it's for something that's important, like a country attacking us or just helping out another country from it's own government or another country. But I don't think we should have wars over oil and stuff like that. I think that's what you guys were saying too. I have an idea for another topic though!

Good, we agree about creation. Though, there are so many debatable aspects I'll bet we could find some point to argue.
About war... I feel bad for true hippies and the like that look to all of the wrong solutions for peace. For true peace, there's only Jesus Christ. War is a part of life and self-defense.
What's your idea for another topic?

Yes, I hadn't seen the series before I bought the set, although I'm definitely glad I took the chance and did buy it! (I mean, if it wasn't a good series I probably would have regretted spending even $20.00 on it).

Ok, as I figured. Well, it was definitely worth the $20! Would you consider buying the second series? Have you seen any episodes from it?

Yes indeed! We started Season 5 this past Sunday evening, and are a grand total of one episode in. But that one episode was really funny.

Ah, that's great! Hopefully we'll get Season 5 soon, but I keep saying that, don't I?

How did your play go? I hope it went well!

Yes, it went very well, thank you!

*waves to MissA*

@ NN. Well, I listened to: Legends of the Fall, The Dark Knight and Jumanji.

Very cool! I'd assume TDK is your favorite of those three, correct?

Mortereve all!

An inquisitive head peeks itself out from the edge of the Square and looks around cautiously . . . then, as the head has discovered that this is indeed the place it was looking for, the figure steps out. It's me!

That was very random, I know, but it just came to me and I thought it would be a new way to enter the Square (for me, anyway). Good mortereve everyone!!

I hope that everyone had a pleasant Mother's Day! What did y'all do? Anything special for your Moms?

Hey! Well--tomorrow we're having the whole church over after--well, church. Then the day after that I get braces. And 2 days after that there's a surprise birthday party for our Pastor... He was born 5/5/55, and now he's turning 55, so.. yeah. Then the next day is piano, 2 days later we're having a sewing class at our house, the next day we're going to my Grandparents for Mother's Day after church, two days later our Foreign Exchange student is coming, the next day is violin lessons, and the list goes on. May is a hugely busy month for us.

Woooww! That's a full schedule! So you have your braces on now? How are they feeling? Are you used to them yet? I hope that everything went well with the birthday party...and lessons...and the sewing class...and your Mother's Day...and is the Foreign Exchange student there now? I hope that is going well!

Aww, I'm sorry about your hand, Rosa!

So I have to wear a splint for three/four weeks... which basically erases all hope of being able to perform the concerto.

Oh dear! I will keep praying. When is the program going to be?

Oooh, a belated Happy birthday to Djaq! I hope you had a splendid celebration!

And congrats on getting your ears pierced!

Thank you very much! I did have a splendid celebration!

LOL, Djaq, what a present. Love it!

Yeah, sweeet and I both thought it was great!

Thanks!!
Happy Belated Birthday!

Thank you!
How have you been lately? Have you been reading any good books?

First of all, happy belated birthday to Cor and Djaq ! I trust you both enjoyed yourselves .

Thank you, Ali!

Yes they are quite good. I like them just as much as Celtic Women. I can give you some song reccomendations if you wish .

My brother gave me the Celtic Woman "Songs from the Heart" CD for my birthday! I had been wanting it and looking at buying it, so I was really excited.
That would be great! (about the song recommendations)

Lol thanks . Me too! Your sister's work- she's quite a fantastic graphic artist, as are you .

Yes, flam is a great graphic designer! I've seen your work too and it's really good! Oh, thank you!

Great thanks, you?

I am doing very well, thank you!

So, that's the end of this section, if I'm not mistaken, but we can go on to the conversation between Abigail and Mitch. I can't remember how that starts, so if you want to go on you'll have to start it.

There are two more lines in that scene. "It's just temporary until I find a new place." I'll let you do the next one.
I'm not entirely sure how the next conversation starts either, so I'll have to watch it again.

"Nobody's gonna die. There's another way out!" NT1. (Sure... )

"Is that true?" Emma.

Yes, it's far too much work.

Agreed! (we're going to become like the Dufflepuds if we keep this up )

Ok, sounds good!

I still haven't listened to any more...Sorry! I keep forgetting until I'm catching up.

Actually, I just finished it last night. But, for some reason, MerlinJunkie has only uploaded the first episode of season two, and the last three parts of the last episode. Weird!

That is weird! Have they uploaded any more yet?

Actually, I don't think even clicking the quote button retains the formatting. Well, it was pretty easy to do by pressing the "font color" button.

I'll go see...HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DJAQ!!!!!!! Ah, it does work. I clicked "quote" and then copied and pasted the color codes that were there.

Am I nervous? Well, sitting here in front of my computer I'm not nervous. I think the time most people are nervous is the few seconds right before they go onstage.

Well, perhaps that wasn't the right way to phrase my question. I meant it more like...Are you apprehensive about the performance or do you feel well prepared? Anyway, since the play has happened now, it doesn't really matter. I'm glad to hear that it went well!

Yeah, I know! Fortunately, it was a Friday night and I didn't have to get up for anything.

Yes, Friday nights are the best for posting late (or just staying up late in general).

Thanks, Djaq! Yes, I have had braces before, but only on four of my top teeth. This time I'm getting them on all my teeth...
Oh, and that is SO cool that you and flam got your ears pierced!! Congrats!

Ah, okay. Just think about the perfect teeth that you will have at the end!
< like that. So you have your braces on now?
Thanks! My ears hurt every so often now, but other than that, they're really nice.

Yes, and she's actually very good about helping me clean up and our room is usually in pretty good order.

It seems I missed your birthday. Do you take late well wishes? Or are the shipping fees extremely high when you're late?

That's good!

I have consulted with the postmaster and he has agreed to let you ship your belated wishes at a much lower rate than he usually allows people to do. So, there is no harm in sending them late.

Well, I take down the information of who's in what play, what props are needed, extra notes the director has, being on-book, and things like that.
Oh, how fun! What are you planning to sew?

That sounds really neat! Are you enjoying it?
At that point, I was making an apron...and I'm about to start working on another one. It's a really cute pattern (I'm making the one in the middle).

Welcome back, Ben! It's great to have you back! How are you doing?

And, another welcome back to Lady L!! Congratulations about your last final! Yay!

Also, yesterday evening I watched the first episode of BBC's Robin Hood! It was playing on TV, and I recorded episodes 1, 2, and 3. I've only had a chance to watch the first one so far, but I love it! Robin and Much are awesome!

That's great! Another Robin Hood fan!

And how is life for you? Anything new?

Life is going really well! Things are not really busy at the moment, but this weekend will be rather hectic. On Thursday, flam and I are going to take a CPR class with one of our sisters. We're going to spend the weekend out at my sister's house (she lives an hour away and she's close to where the class is being held) because her husband will be out of state and she would be by herself otherwise. It should be fun! On Saturday, my parents are going to my other sister's house (three hours away) to work on some tiling that needs to be done. After that, I'm not sure what we're going to do. What about you?

KAT!!! It's great to see you here again! I haven't talked to you in...a long time! How are you doing?

And you're the first person I'm quoting again! Hmm, this is starting to became a trend....

You're right; it is. I won't be first in your next post though; Aiden posted above me.

*puts away fan and girly like act* Vern tells me I do that too well. Perhaps I should stop...

Quite welcome! I'm just glad I know enough about movies to tell you were the quotes come from instead of simply saying "Uhh, some movie we like..."

Um, yeah, I think that you should stop.

It is very useful knowledge to have.

You'll be glad to know that Vern was very nice to me on my birthday.

*Yes, but I made up for it on Saturday. *

I am very pleased to hear that!
Vern...what did you do?

Congrats! You're getting two separate segments of my catch-up post!

Whoa, thank you!

That was perfectly fine, I made sure not to over do it. Oh, they mostly certainly met and exceeded my approval! Thanks again!

Well, that is very good. Why, thank you! And, you are welcome!

Thank... you. *clears throat* It's as lovely as I was expecting it to be. Thanks for deciding against the ruffle.

*Aye, it does! *

I can tell that you really like it. And you are very welcome for the lack of rufflyness (which isn't a word, but it is now since I said it. ).

That's all for me. Please excuse anything that I may have missed.

Mortereve all!

Mortereve, all!

First of all and MOST important... *trumpet blast*... HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my fantastic sister! I doubt you'll ever read this... but, if you do, feel special that I'm including you in this post. Love you lots-and-lots! And wow... twenty? Goodness, you're getting old.

Oh, you're learning French, Winter? I took it for a semester. Terrible experience. Well actually, I think the language is awesome... I just had no talent for it and the teacher stunk.

But anyway. How long have you been learning it? Do you speak any other languages as well?

Two more weeks 'till school's out!

Hurrah! Just.... two... more.... I can survive.

*reads with interest the brief evolution/creation and war discussions between Glenstorm and Nick* Hm.

Oh, you're so fortunate, Fanny. I'm in the midst of finals! (Some of them, that is. More are still on the way...) *sigh*

But hey, God is right here with me! I find that comforting during... stress. (As well as other times, of course! Right now I especially appreciate it.)

*waves to Miss Aravis* Hellooo!

*blinks* Wow. Did I really.... *blinks again* Did I really just see quotes in Cor's post? Wow. Amazing!

Yay for watching Up! And I really, really enjoyed reading the review for Avatar you posted on facebook earlier (I just never got around to commenting). It was helpful to hear your perspective. Thanks!

Oh, and... *ahem*... could you possibly give me the website to your blog again? I'm afraid I've forgotten.

You were missed at the celebration. Hmm, or should that be ---->:( No, I think--- > is better.

Thank-you. I'll be sure to make it next time.

It went very well! Probably one of our best plays yet.

Wow, that's great! Glad to hear.

That's definitely one thing I enjoyed about homeschooling. No finals. We had little bits here and there, but it wasn't a huge series of tests to stress out about.

Oh dear! I will keep praying. When is the program going to be?

Aw, thank you so much! Well, the recital is on May 23rd. (Or somewhere around there.) I'm definitely not going to be performing. My teacher said I can still come to hear the others play, though, which I'm excited about. Evidently, I can also take summer lessons and finish up the concerto. She'll have another recital in late-summer, and I can perform there.

Annnndd.... that concludes my catch-up post! I hope you all have a splendid evening! I'm off to a birthday trip to Olive Garden, and then... studying. For finals. Wish me luck!

Tchau!

Mortereve everyone!

;)) Yes, it is. How are things going for you?

Lol . Um, pretty good. School's still kinda hectic but I got a CD in the mail today! TAN's new CD! I preordered it so I got some extra stuff but I was a little upset b/c they sent me a size XL shirt instead of M . Oh well . The CD is really good though .

*waves to Kat* wow I didn't even know you ever went in the sqaure . Wait you're quitting twitter! Why, if you don't mind me asking?

Good, we agree about creation. Though, there are so many debatable aspects I'll bet we could find some point to argue.
About war... I feel bad for true hippies and the like that look to all of the wrong solutions for peace. For true peace, there's only Jesus Christ. War is a part of life and self-defense.
What's your idea for another topic?

I suppose we could

Yes Jesus Christ is the only source for true peace, but unfortunately most people don't believe so.

Dating! I've had several conversations about this and most didn't go too well but I figure since we're all friends here it should be ok

*waves to Cor* how are you?

My brother gave me the Celtic Woman "Songs from the Heart" CD for my birthday! I had been wanting it and looking at buying it, so I was really excited.
That would be great! (about the song recommendations)

Oh wow! I want that CD too! I almost bought it for my friend b/c it's her birthday this month but they didn't have it where I normally buy CDs so I got her this instead http://www.christianbook.com/aaron-shus ... em_code=WW

Ok I've only heard one of their CDs but these are the songs I really liked

Heartland
The Mountains of Mourne
The Voyage
Come by the Hills
Steal Away
The Island
Brothers in Arms
Cal/Local Hero
Lauren and I
Ireland's Call
Puppy Love (my dad hates this song )

Yes, flam is a great graphic designer! I've seen your work too and it's really good! Oh, thank you!

aww thank you! And you're welcome
