I don't think I'll be making it to the formal tonight, guys. I think the plauge helped me catch a cold or something. I'll be staying in my dorm sleeping.
LiQuan you better still go. Don't make both of them regret coming for the ball.

When: Friday night 9pm-midnight Where: Off-campus, Chateau Idrilain Rating: Anything goes (please mark if the thread takes a turn) Note: Curfew is extended JUST FOR THIS EVENT! :) Curfew will go back to normal afterwards. But this also means there will be a few more adults watching over the ball, just in case. As per most events, just put in the subject the characters involved and approximate time of the event!

It is now the first night of Chanukkah. It's a more minor holiday, but I find that it's the most well-known of the Jewish holidays. And it has always been a time of family for me. My parents would return home to spend the week with my sister, her husband, myself and my niece. I am also a fan of doughnuts, at least homemade.
I'm looking forward to finals. I consider this time of year the best time to show what we've learned.
My sister asked me to come home during the break. It's the first time I'll have gone with her rather than with my parents. But I look forward to meeting Ora's boyfriend. He's in Rabbinical school and offered several of his last semester's books to look over at my leisure.
[Private]
I have been thinking about the date I went on, in light of the winter ball occurring tonight. It strikes me as strange how little I felt on the date and how I was simply glad for it to be over. Shoshana assured me it is normal. But she had already met David when she was my age, although she didn't date him for a few years. I cannot say I've ever felt an attraction to a woman. At least to none of the ones I've met here.
Asexuality may assist my studies, but it will make living up to commandments more difficult.

This week has been interesting strange long...
I think I might pay Alec a visit today before the ball. Which I can't go to... :/
[Private to self] So... boys... I'm not really sure what this means. I kind of wish Alec were around to explain. Except, I already know what he's going to say.
"WHY WERE YOU HANGING OUT WITH LEON DARNELL? WHY WHY WHY?"
Yeah...
He's really nice though. Surprisingly... Not at all what everyone makes him out to be. I mean, I guess we've had conversations before, but this is the first time I've actually gotten to hang out with him. And he was... really pretty Wednesday. Really really pretty. Is pretty even the right word to use? Though it's still kind of strange why he would randomly ask me to hang out. But I guess I won't think too far into it.
And... Gabe? Who is That was kind of random. [/Private]
[Private to Friends: Alec, James, Penelope, Shelley Devon, Jannika, Dylan, Elendir, Misae, Laura, Logan] So... I think I asked this before, but what exactly defines a 'date'...? Because I think I might have been asked on one? To the ball? Except I don't really think I know him that well... So I don't know why he would want to Maybe he got the wrong person?
Also, Leon has been surprisingly really nice lately. Am I a horrible person for thinking that it's kind of strange that someone who rarely ever talks to me is suddenly nice to me? I mean, it's nice... I like him and spending time with him. But... just kind of weird. Do I even make sense?
I went out shopping today with Leon. Helping other people shop is really fun. Even if Leon doesn't really agree with the clothes I pick out for him. It kind of makes me wish I could go to the ball... [/Private]
((OOC: I think Leon and Viktor on Wednesday made a bit of a scene, because that was what Leon wanted, SO... everyone should probably already know/think that something fishy is going on :P))

Last mod post from Mei for a while, I promise...
Since most people said that they might not be able to go, I'm thinking of postponing the trip to Disney World until after the winter break and seeing if we can find a weekend opening in January! :)
And now the voting... please try to choose one per category! If you're really stuck, two is okay too. And since we only got one nominate for most entertaining, I'm thinking that character automatically wins. :P
( The voting details... )
Sooo... A shorter recap: best dressed - Reo - Tory - Laura - Penelope - Viitoria - Elendir - Jannika - Jae - LiShan
best dancer - Misae & Jaidev - Jae
most outrageous outfit - Mac - Devon - Jannika
cutest couple - Li & Arion - Misae & Jaidev - Dafne & Nate - Pea & Rocky
And since I'm tired, you vote here! Comments are screened. You're allowed one vote for each character you have that went to the dance! If you don't have any characters that went to the dance (sad, sad!) then you can have one vote just for fun.
Results will be announced tonight! :)

What is wrong with me?! Why do I keep getting...
Det är inte logiskt, inget av det är. Och frustrerande och bara störigt. Jag borde inte reagera såhär men likväl gör jag det, gång på gång på gång. Som att det inte var illa nog förra gången jag fick spel. Det spelar ingen som helst roll vad jag gör, allt blir bara fel. Varför måste jag... Varför...
Jag vill hem.
Thank god for finals next week.

[Private to Arion]
.... I might skip the formal but you guys make sure to have fun though.

Is there anyone willing to join me for drinks tomorrow instead of going to the formal?

| Upcoming events and whatnot! |
[10 Dec 2009|09:57pm] |
Okay guys! If you haven't already, please submit nominations to this thread for the Winter Ball that's tomorrow night!
Upcoming Birthdays: - Cora (Saturday12/12) - Mac (Tuesday 12/15) - Nate (Tuesday 12/15)
Upcoming Events: - Winter Ball (Friday 12/11) - Orchestra Concert (Monday 12/14)
Exams will start Tuesday 12/15 and go until Tuesday 12/22!!!! Monday's classes will be canceled! :D Since every student is taking 12 classes, each day there will be two exams~! Simple, right?
( The exam schedule~! )
STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO TAKE EXAMS! There will be no make-ups!! None at all. So no sick-days or pranks or anything like that.
Blitzball practices and Dragon racing classes have been canceled, and the rest of the club meetings are up to the presidents' discretions. (So most likely still on-going, unless otherwise specified.)
After that, is a winter break that will last from 12/23 all the way until 1/3! And there is a special Mitaartut holiday on 1/6 which the mods will go into more detail about at a later date.
Furthermore, Sophia, Mei, and Lena have discussed a little Rakiah outing to a certain Disney World in the United States. Mei was wondering, if Arion were to invite his house (+friends of the Xing twins) to join, would anyone be interested? It would not be a school-funded event, so it would actually cost the students money out of their own pockets (but Arion is betting on cramming everyone into one hotel room so it'd be crowded, but probably cheap.) And it would most likely either take place this weekend (which they have a so-called 'long weekend'; though they do have to be back by 8pm for the Orchestra Concert on Monday...) or during winter break.
Let me know what you guys think of that bit of plot and when you would like that to happen?

| Introduction |
[11 Dec 2009|03:45am] |
Hi! New player here. The name's Nimo, and the character here is Embla Guðrúnsdottir, yet another warlock for Mathey. Embla is from Iceland and has dabbled with the supernatural (in her case galdrar) since she was a child. She's a pretty happy-go-lucky kind of girl, as long as you don't hurt her or her family. To quote her bio: "While Embla is the ever so perky girl she does have her moments that makes you wonder just what kind of things she's really hiding and that's usually when someone crosses her or her loved ones. But she's also very opinionated and doesn't hesitate to get into people's face when she sees something that she feels is wrong or unfair."
Her main passions in life are art, Iceland and galdrar. Other than that she just loooves to study and read quite a bit. Which, I suppose, might make her kind of a nerd in some peoples' eyes.
I'm not sure what more to write. More info can be found in Embla's bio.
When it comes to storylines, I...honestly have no ideas at all at the moment, so hit me with your best shot! But please be gentle with me - I'm frail. Really.
I'm not as good at the English language as I'd like to be, being ESL, but hopefully that won't be too much of a problem, playing a Nordic character and all. ;) Please don't be afraid of correcting me - I definitely prefer that over continuing to do something wrong.
If you want to plot or so, I can be found at Little Nimore.

| Winter Ball Update! |
[10 Dec 2009|10:46am] |
Yay for surviving the plague, Idris! (Mostly, anyways.) And now for our next bit of plot...
As most of you know, the winter ball is this Friday! :) It will be held at the same venue that the masquerade we had was held in. And dress is required to be formal, so your character will be turned away if they're not wearing something that would pass as 'formal'!! (So no shirts and jeans this time, Leon...)
By one of the walls is a small line of boxes where students can vote for the following categories: best dressed, best dancer, most entertaining, most outrageous outfit, cutest couple
If you would like to submit your character for one of these categories, respond here by Friday morning (EST time, so... Friday night for those of you on the other side of the world?) Please include a small description as well. (For example, instead of just saying, "I'm submitting Arion and Li for cutest couple" something along the lines of, "Arion brought a date in sparkling blue to the ball and announced it as his cousin. But where was his twin, who is usually attached to him at the hips?") EDIT: Meaning, nominate any character, but instead of just saying what category you're nominating him/her for, describe why. If Devon is nominated for her dress, link it. If Arion/Li are nominated best couple, describe how they were acting. Etc.
You can submit other characters for other people as well. But only if you already know what they're doing/wearing. No submitting Leon for most outrageous outfit if you don't know what he's wearing first!
Comments are screened! Because, you know, it's more fun that way. :) I'll put out a list of all the suggestions tomorrow for voting!

Since the last meeting of TFU had to be canceled, we're going to double up these next two weeks. So, this Monday and the next Monday we will be meeting in the Zebul common room as per normal. I really hope that everyone that has a chance to come drops by. Except Salvatore Agliardi, he is not wanted. Even if you can't stay for the entire meeting.
EDITED {Private to Rocky]
That is okay with you, isn't it? I'm so sorry I forgot to check with you first.
{/private}
((ooc: Lendie got carried away and forgot to talk to her VP about the double meeting and then remembered she should probably talk with him a few minutes after she posted her entry.))
