My head hurts so bad I might cry.
Ugh.
I hope coffee will help...

Darkness Dragons Revenge Princess Zelda21 I'm thinking of entering the avatar arena with this ice princess character I just made. Except I don't know what I should name her. *sigh* Kind of out of ideas. sad I think it would be a great idea. How about Winter's Enchantment or Winter's Enchantress?

Sorry I'm, like, forever pinging you. >>;
But I thought of something I wanted to ask you!
You mentioned your Italian heritage, and I'm pretty sure you've mentioned speaking it and taking a class in it; do you read much in Italian?
I really really seriously desperately want to know how to read better in Italian so I can someday read Dante's works (including Inferno!) in their original language.
I read a great annotated English version, but it still said you really miss a lot by not reading it in Italian because there is SO much that doesn't translate over well.
(I'm a linguophile as well as an audiophile and bibliophile; I'm forever learning bits and pieces of other languages.)

Queen Spazzy I'm a thorough introvert.
All social interactions have a heavy cost, I was laid up in bed for some twenty-four hours after I did dinner and a movie with my beau for his birthday.
I have lots of crazy, lots of different kinds of crazy, it's great. Was it the hanging out with your beau in a public place, or being in public that stressed you out? Do you think you'd be okay around me? I know I would you.

After losing her loved one in a wintery storm, this Enchantress plays her harp in hopes of her lover recognizing her song and finding her. Or She had always loved walking in the forest on wintery days. She had recently taken to carrying her harp with her to play for the little forest animals that helped guide her to and from the forest. Maybe As a child, she had gotten lost in the woods one winter with an unforgettable storm. She played her harp to call to the small forest animals to help guide her to shelter. To this day, she never returns to the woods without her harp.

Strangers freak me out, I can't leave the house by myself.
I'd probably be cool with you since I've gotten to know you and talk to you a lot over the web~
More than just you would be harder, though.
And I'd still spend at least the first five minutes being quiet, shy, and awkward.
One of few things I'm good at! BEING AWKWARD.

(I'm a linguophile as well as an audiophile and bibliophile; I'm forever learning bits and pieces of other languages.) I like you forever pinging me cat_4laugh Um, I am learning to speak Italian and I am half Italian, but I can't read or speak very fluently. I know an absoloutley fantastical perfect way you can learn Italian for FREE: Click this link to be brought into the many worlds of Duo Lingo! I use it for learning Italian quicker (class goes WAYYYY to slowly for me). There's Italian, german, Spanish, French, and something else I'm forgetting. And it's all for free and accurate! It's awesome and you level up the more you learn! Please please please please pretty pretty please check it out! You won't regret it! Oh I can only imagine all that's different between the two books. What's fun is, once you really learn the language, you can do direct translations ie: Il suo zia e' divertida: It means, "her aunt is fun" but a direct translate, word for word, is, "The her aunt is fun". Tell me how it goes!

I just cant handle big groups emotion_sweatdrop
I used to be awkward, but I got over it. Now I just have awkward moments (which can last a while).

Tell me how it goes! I'm semi-fluent in Spanish (written and spoken and, by relation, I'm also pretty good with Portuguese; Google likes to give me Brazilian pages and ads because I visit and read sites that originate there >>; ), so direct translations are terribly amusing.
(Me gusta; literally, 'it pleases me')
And I will check it out, I love languages!
(And I'm fairly good with them, too, for whatever reason...)
I'm so glad you're not bothered by my endless pings. I was kinda worried. >>;
EDIT: I AM AMUSED. I will be playing with this all day. Or I would if the dogs weren't screwing me up...

I used to be awkward, but I got over it. Now I just have awkward moments (which can last a while). I have very low tolerance limits, but I know what I can handle.
People get mad at me because I won't do certain things because I know I'll freak out (I was invited to a club once with some friends, said I wouldn't go because I didn't think I could handle it, one of them got mad at me and pretty much accused me of being a liar and faking everything. My beau gets mad at me a lot because I don't like leaving the house, too...).
I can't do strangers by myself. At all.
I can do about one or two at a time when I'm with someone I'm close with like my mom or beau or my bestie.
Three or four acquaintances I'm not close to while with a closer friend.
That's pretty much it.
And interactions exhaust me. Like reverse vampirism.
And I will spazz if I get stuck in a crowd so I avoid busy places.
And cars. Cars freak me out so entirely. I can't drive. People don't realize how social driving is. I'm also just terrified of cars in general; I panic behind the wheel of a parked car, even. >>;
Luckily my beau prefers doing everything together anyway.
If we, like, met in a library or museum or something like that, though, I'd probably do pretty well!
I'm better in places like that than elsewhere. Slightly less awkward. Probably because it's easier to converse in places like that and they're generally quiet and calm. (And empty-ish.)

"La donna mangia lo zucchero."
Are you... Are you sure?
She's not... She's not putting it IN anything?
Just... Just eating sugar?
ARE YOU PEOPLE SURE?!!
[/adventures in learning Italian]
Also, why is sugar one of the first words it had me learn?
Is that... is that REALLY something I'd be using a lot? >>;

It's easier to learn when things aren't distracting me, like noisy dogs and my mother talking to/grumbling at the dogs.
AND OH MY GOSH THEY HAVE A RUSSIAN COURSE IN THE WORKS I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN WAIT THE EIGHT MONTHS TO THE EXPECTED RELEASE DATE I WANT TO LEARN NOWWWWWW.
(SPAZZYFACT! I've wanted to learn Russian since I was in middle school.)
They expect you to know really weird and awkward words and phrases as a beginner, though...
*was going to do placement in Spanish to refresh my knowledge and then learn new things*
WHAT LANGUAGE OBSESSION?
WHAT MANIA?
WHAT COFFEE?!!
*hides coffee cup and half empty carafe*
This was apparently what I needed to feel more like myself. >>;

Well, I got my ice princess avi entered into the arena. Just need to wait until Monday for the voting and all to start. My last several attempts with other ones I made didn't get a very high rating for some reason. I'm assuming basically all the petty reasons the "commentators" complained about. Grrr, I hate it when people nitpick on the most dumbest things in the arenas! stare
