+ | ==Tower Sworn Interview== | ||
+ | ''November 7, 2014'' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;Are you like the Browns in the books? Do you love books and have a tendency to daydream? | ||
+ | Yes, I suppose. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;Do you have a favorite Brown Ajah character from the novels? | ||
+ | Verin is my favorite character in the books, period. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;How long have you been a fan of the Wheel of Time series? | ||
+ | My older sister gave me the first book in 2004. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;How did you first get into the series? | ||
+ | I needed more books for book reports, so I kept reading them, and then I was hooked. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;Who is your favorite "hero"? | ||
+ | Matt | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;Favorite bad guy/gal? | ||
+ | Demandred | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;Favorite book and scene? | ||
+ | The last book is my favorite. My favorite scene is the aftermath of the White Tower civil war. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;If you were set down in Randland, who/what would you see yourself as? An Aes Sedai? Innkeeper? Seanchan Captain? | ||
+ | Statistically speaking: a farmer. Assuming I get to be somebody reasonably interesting: maybe a member of the Kin. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;How did you find TarValon.Net and what convinced you to stay and become Tower Sworn? | ||
+ | I went searching for Wheel of Time online role play groups, found this geocities site instead, and decided to stay. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;What do you do in "real life"? | ||
+ | I'm a Retail Systems Analyst which means I'm really, really good with Excel. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;Do you have any hobbies? | ||
+ | Computers, singing, sewing, cooking. Not necessarily in that order. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;What kind of music do you enjoy listening to? | ||
+ | Pretty much anything, depending on the mood. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;What are some of your favorite movies / television shows? | ||
+ | Star Wars, Babylon 5, Memoirs of a Geisha | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;Aside from The Wheel of Time, what are a few of your favorite books/series? | ||
+ | The Kingkiller Chronicles, The Riyria Chronicles, Little Women, The X-Wing Series | ||
+ | |||
+ | ;What profession did you want to have when you were a kid? | ||
+ | I always wanted to work with computers, but that's not very specific. It's been fun figuring out the details! | ||
+ | |||
+ | <!-- | ||
+ | ''January 29th 2008'' | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;What is your Tower name? | ||
+ | Naomi. Just Naomi. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Why did you choose Brown? | ||
+ | I very quickly became very close to the people already in the Brown Ajah. Mind you, at the time there were 3 of them. We were one of the largest Ajahs. I don't actually have a clear memory of the transition from Novice-hood to being in the Brown Ajah halls. It was a very long time ago! | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Are you like the Browns in the Books? | ||
+ | Mother has jokingly introduced me to people as "Verin". I think this implies a "yes" answer. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Do you love books and do you daydream a lot? | ||
+ | This actually seems like a silly question to me. "You mean... some people don't do that? ... Weird!" | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted? | ||
+ | I was a Novice for a week and Accepted for 5 months (which was simply FOREVER at the time). I had quite a lot of fun, got in a bit of trouble, and invented a "question ter'angreal" with Jorryn Sedai. It was a ter'angreal that caused everyone in its vicinity to ask lots and lots of questions. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;What things do you do for TV.net? | ||
+ | I have been a Sitter, Heart of Ajah (although it wasn't called that at the time), and Head of Ajah. At the moment I don't hold any position other than Aes Sedai, although I anticipate doing more for the Tower sometime in the future. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;How did you get to read the Series? | ||
+ | My older sister recommended it to me. I've been swiping her books ever since. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Who is your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation? | ||
+ | Verin is my favorite character, but I have never been able to keep the nations straight. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Have you ever attended any Real Life Functions? Did you like them if you did, and why? (Why do you think people should come to any future functions?) | ||
+ | I attended Ani '04, Fall Ball '04, Ani '05, D*Con '05, and Ani '06 as well as numerous local functions. I haven't been to a party in much too long, and I dearly miss all my friends. Tower parties are like fluffy bunnies merged with adorable kittens and puppies carrying chocolate and roses. Do you need more reason to go? | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;What are your favorite movies? | ||
+ | Star Wars (there are only 3), The Princess Bride, some others I'm sure | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;What is the craziest/stupidest thing you've ever done? | ||
+ | Car pooling from central Illinois to Denver, Colorado for Ani Party '05 was pretty crazy. Camping during the Flood of Ani '04 was also crazy, but not my fault. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;What job do you have? | ||
+ | I have on-campus work study with the Computer Center as phone tech support. I don't hate it, far more often than not. I'm actually the student manager of the Helpdesk, making me at least marginally more important than your everyday, run of the mill Helpdesker. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Do you have a pet? | ||
+ | I had goldfish for a while. My last one finally died last summer after 3 years. I haven't replaced him. Fish are a LOT of work, by the way. I would rather have a cat. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;What languages do you speak? | ||
+ | English. I've taken a number of years of German but to claim that I really speak it would be laughable. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Seanchan or Shara? | ||
+ | Seanchan | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Verin or Adeleas? | ||
+ | Verin :| | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Board games or computer games? | ||
+ | Computer Games, definitely | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;Coke or Pepsi? | ||
+ | Is this like a paired ranking system where at the end you tell me that I have an Oedipus complex because I like Seanchan better than Pepsi? | ||
+ | |||
+ | Neither, actually, I gave up caffeine quite a while ago... but it used to be Coke. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ;A short bio about yourself. | ||
+ | I'm a Psychology major in my Senior year of undergraduate study. The college I attend is simply perfect for me, and I will be very sad to leave. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Graduate school may be in my future, but not right off. As much as in some ways I would like to avoid it, I need to enter the real world and see what happens. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I have lived in Illinois, USA all my life and am contemplating living somewhere else for a while. | ||
+ | |||
+ | As I write this, I am about to celebrate 6 months with my boyfriend, with whom I am madly in love. | ||
