Seeing as things have been quiet since November, I thought maybe a little game could brighten things up. Well, it's not really a game more of let's get to know each other. How long have we been together? XD We can ask questions about one another. Maybe it's just me (living so far away) but I'm always curious how other people live. Strange, I know xD
My name is Alicia but most of you know me as Ali or Alimay C: People are always secretive about their middle names but mine is Holley. It explains my AIM (holleyfaun). Feel free to add me! I'm 16 years old (am I the oldest?) and turn 17 next month. I live in a country called New Zealand. It's located under Australia and famous for Kiwis, Flight of the Conchords, Lord of the Rings and Sir Edmond Hillary. I love answering questions about my country in comparison to the U.S and the U.K. I live in the scenic South Island in the region of Canterbury. Next year is my last year of High School (;___;) and I hope to go to University. I'm planning on becoming a secondary school English teacher! My favourite subjects are English, Classical Studies, French and Art Design. I like Painting but unfortunately have to drop the subject next year D: I have one cat called Toy-Boy. He is a flat faced Persian. My sister has a grey tabby named Bonnie. She appears on here as River Stone. My sister also has an English Cocker Spaniel named Lucy. And, obviously, I have a little sister xD
Mhm, what else can I possibly say? Oh! Favourite music: The Killers, David Bowie, The Cure, The Clash, Glen Miller, Johnny Cash and a collection of other artists. At the moment I have a soft spot for Elvis Presley and Owl City. I have a wide range in music. I'm more happy with 'old music' though.
I love webcomics! Check out Lackadaisy, The Meek, The Phoenix Requiem and Roza. Websites I belong to and you should check out include: deviantArt, Leopets (an amazing community, lightly based off Neopets and WoW) and Thorns Uprising. Especially check out Thorns, it's amazing! Not only do I roleplay Warriors, I have a character on Thorns (Llian), several xweetoks, InuYasha characters, some vampires, a fantasy, two mixed DNA characters and two Sci-Fi char
Feel free to ask me any questions. Oh, and I need ideas for short stories -.-

Ali, can you come to the States and teach a freshman English course for a semester? :'D My teacher is okay but all of my friends seem to hate her and I'm sure you would be much better at it than she is.
A tall, brown-haired teenage girl clears her throat in a semi-officious manner. She is wearing elliptical wire-rimmed glasses and a black beret with a turtleneck and slacks to match. In her hands is a silver cornet (small, fat trumpet). She starts to speak but must clear her throat again because she always seems to have some disease along the lines of bronchitis in the winter.
"Oh, hello! I'm Haley, although almost everyone who knows me only over the Internet calls me Tiger. I assure you that I picked my nickname ages ago, and that it is because my favorite baseball team is the Detroit Tigers; it's not in honor of that golfer who the tabloids are tearing limb from limb. I will turn fifteen in three days--my birthday is December twentieth--and my dad is making me a linzer torte. I am a"--she stops to count on her fingers--"fifth-generation American and I live in a state that people care about every four years because it is a swing state. I call it 'Ohio.' If you've never had candy buckeyes before, you need to try them; they're fantastic!
"I am a freshman in high school and I am basically obsessed with my grades. My favorite classes are German (Sprechen Sie Deutsch?) and jazz band. I usually like school but despise homework. As far as the future goes, I was considering a career as a large animal veterinarian but I'm having doubts now. I would really love to be an author, but as far as realistic thinking goes, I could be an editor or a pharmacist. I have a younger brother and a golden retriever named Molly.
"Let's see. What else...ah! I absolutely love horses, especially Appaloosas and Lipizzaners. Most of my free time is spent drawing, writing, or wasting time on the computer. My favorite author is Edger Allen Poe and my favorite word is defenestrate (verb: to throw someone or something out of a window). I obsess over things fairly easily but only one at a time; my current one is the manga Axis Powers Hetalia which has only strengthened my love of twentieth century history.
"My favorite bands are Panic! at the Disco, Rammstein, Green Day, Fall Out Boy, and Nirvana. Most of the songs I like have great lyrics or great music, but my favorites include both. I'm sure this is a pretty universal criterion and that it's not just me. The two websites I am typically on are deviantART and NationStates. They are great if you are respectively an artist or interested in political science.
"Lastly, my hovercraft is full of eels. Thank you very much." She bows and departs.

My turn!! :3 My name is Kat, short for Kathryn Hunter. I go by all sorts of names of sites because, well, I just can't seem to choose xD. I decided on Cat here because it's Warriors and it's my name...just spelled like the animal. And yes, together with my nickname, my name is Kat Hunter (cat hunter). Funny because it's Warriors and well....funny in general. I am 16, just turned because my birthday is the 10th of December, ten days before yours Tiger!! I have two more years of highschool and I live in the USA, in a little state in southern part called South Carolina. I take Spanish, can't stand it. Was my lowest exam grade . Anyway, favorite classes are US History and English. And well, P.E. I'd love to be a writer, because writing it amazing. I do some Warriors sites like this, as well as a Fantasy type one. It helps me learn how to write better and you guys help a lot with that! Journalism/ Photography always seems very nice to me, with a back up of either History teacher or Sports teacher/director. I have two older sisters, but no actual cats, but one dog. A golden retriever called Sam. I love watching crime shows on tv, some of my favorite shows I like to watch are : NCIS, NCIS LA, The Mentalist, Lie To Me, Pysch, Burn Notice, White Collar, Castle, Royal Pains, Monk. And some others are So You Think You Can Dance, American Idol, and GLEE. Some of my favorite books are Warriors(little behind now), Artemis Fowl(amazing!), and some others . No favorite authors because I never remember them, just the book titles. I will always have suggestions if you need a book to read. I love electronics, addicted to the computer am I, lol. Love all types of music! Have about 2 thousand songs on my Ipod so far. It ranges, just don't like real old music, country, and heavy screamo. My favorite song have meaningful, great lyrics with awesome music. The Fray, Anberlin, and The Script are some of my favorites. I do read webcomics and are into Anime and Manga of all kinds. Current manga is Shaman King, Black Cat(just finished), Pyschobusters, and Spiral. And uh.... Anymore questions?

Aww, I'ld love to teach in the States or Europe truly but my money is worth nothing to the rest of the world xD I love how you made your post into a story Tiger! I wish I could be in a jazz band. I want to learn Glen Miller pieces on my flute! I forgot to mention I roleplay German WW2 characters with a group of people from Leo. The girl who runs it is doing a History Major for Germany. I have three Germans: Wolfgang Kaiser, Lothar Zarling and Farren Erret. It's funny because my German is limited to ja, nein, frau, herr, fräulein and guten tag xD
Yay! Cat and I are nearly the same age. Well, until my 17th D: I love The mentalist and Lie to Me <3 Happy Birthday to you and Tiger! It's probably a tad belated, I have no sense of time xD But name a character each so I can draw them. You too Lexie C:
I can't believe none of you have learnt French at school D: I could pretend to teach you. Oh well, it seems you're all doing fine at school. Good job! I'm always on hand to help! Need book suggestions, I'm your girl.
