When were you raised to Aes Sedai of the Gray Ajah?

Friday, March 19, 2010 at Anni!

Why did you choose Gray?

When I attended Anni Party of 2009 I met the lovely women we have in the Gray Ajah. I know that I would have guested Gray because I can relate to the women of the books, but it was really the real life meeting that won me over. I also realized that my mediation skills and caring nature for everyone is what makes me Gray.

Are you like the Grays in the Books?

Yes, I can be. I am often the first one that steps in and offers to help a mediate a situation and solve problems. I can be very diplomatic and see an issue from two different sides. This is why I'm Gray.

Do you love politics and do you like to discuss a lot?

I prefer learning about politics rather than discussing them. I feel strongly about my beliefs but do not force them on anyone. Respecting everyone's opinion instead of forcing them to trust yours, is key.

How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

In a word, fun! But then, most of my experience with this site has been!

How long have you been a member of TV.net?

I originally joined January of 2004 and left mid August of 2006 and returned August 27 of 2008.

What things do you do for TV.net?

I have served as a member of the Online Events crew, volunteered in many of the things Gray has done and am currently putting together a class on the old tongue. I always volunteer my help and have applied for quite a few positions in moderation and the like.

How did you get to read the Series?

My step-father and step-sister introduced me to the series when I was 13 and was unable to put it down!

Who is your mentee, if you have one?

I do not currently have a mentee but will be applying for one shortly.

Who is your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?

My favorite character would have to be Larelle, Aes Sedai of the Gray Ajah. She was one of the most influential women to Moiraine at the time of New Spring and is highly representative of the Gray Ajah. But she could be Black Ajah...who knows. Arad Doman is my favorite nation, however Illian is a close second.

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've been to every Dragon Con since 2004, I attended Anni of 2009 and Anni 2010. I have every intention to make it to every real life event that I can. I love real life events because they give you the opportunity to put a "voice" to someone's writing on the boards. Besides, it is always fun to meet up with the people we consider family.

What kind of music do you like?

I listen to everything from country to rap to symphonic goth metal. I have no specific favorite.

What job do you have?

Currently I am employed with Starbucks as a barista, however I've held a job with GameStop and Sears as well.

Do you have a pet?

My little demon cat, Cali is my only pet at the time.

What languages do you speak?

English, some Japanese and Spanish.

What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?

I wanted to be a mom when I grew up. I'm only 20 as it is, so there will be none of that for a good while.

Lanfear or Moghedien?

Lanfear. Definitely.

Seanchan or Shara?

Seanchan.

Candles or lamps?

Candles.

Party or lounging at home?

Lounging at home. Unless there is a party with Tower people.

A short bio about yourself.

I am a 20 year old woman living in Atlanta, Georgia. Unfortunately at this time I am unable to attend university due to money...or a lack thereof. I work for Starbucks full time as a barista and intend on going back to college as soon as possible. Esteban Diego and I are dating and currently live together, I hope to be with him always. I like music, dancing, surfing the internet, painting, doing graphicy art stuff, cooking and reading. If I could, I'd be working for the Georgia Renaissance Festival, and hope to work for Dragon Con this year. I really cannot think of anything else to write because I can be a fairly boring person. :p
