Tower Sworn Interview

Why did you choose Blue?

With the Blues, I found my home. I was drawn to the amazing ladies of the Blue Ajah as a Novice... and as an Accepted beginning my visitations, I learned how wonderful they really were. I feel like Blue is family.. No matter where you go, they're always ready to welcome you back.

Are you like the Blues in the books? Do you plot and manipulate? Do you travel a lot?

To some extent, yes. I do plot, but I'm not all that manipulative. I also do travel often, especially for work these days.

Do you have a favorite Blue Ajah character from the novels?

Pretty predictable answer, but I do love Moiraine and Siuan!

How long have you been a fan of the Wheel of Time series?

Since around April of 2006.

How did you first get into the series?

A friend kept harassing me into reading them and I finally gave in.

Who is your favorite "hero"?

Probably Perrin or Egwene. Some of the others are too annoying.

Favorite bad guy/gal?

Lanfear.

Favorite book and scene?

That's hard to choose!

If you were set down in Randland, who/what would you see yourself as? An Aes Sedai? Innkeeper? Seanchan Captain?

Probably an Aes Sedai. I always wanted to be magical so bad, so that would be the most logical place for me.

How did you find TarValon.Net and what convinced you to stay and become Tower Sworn?

When I started reading the books, I thought the first one was pretty awesome and wanted to find out more about it. I stumbled across TarValon.net during a google search and figured I'd join. I stayed because I loved the people here and made so many friends, and I really loved the forums and wanted to be a real part of them.

What do you do in "real life"?

Work, mostly. I'm a full-time paralegal/medical NCO for the Army National Guard. I also spend a lot of time with friends when I can.

Do you have any hobbies?

Shopping! I also enjoy reading, obviously, along with everyone else here. I try to travel as often as I can and love finding new places and restaurants to visit.

What kind of music do you enjoy listening to?

Broadway musicals, 80's, classic rock, some oldies, and some newer artists... I just despise almost all things rap and R&B.

What are some of your favorite movies / television shows?

Movies: Stardust, Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, anything Disney, P.S. I Love You, just about ANY sappy romantic comedies, etc. Television Shows: Glee, Once Upon A Time, Army Wives, The Vampire Diaries, True Blood, Awkward., Smash.. I think there's a few others.

Aside from The Wheel of Time, what are a few of your favorite books/series?

The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, The Southern Vampire Mysteries, almost anything by Dean Koontz, Stephen King or Nicholas Sparks.. Divergent, The Sword of Truth series... I'm currently on a strange young adult fantasy/horror/whatever kick and a huge dystopian novel kick as well.

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

I wanted to be a concert pianist at first, and then I mostly just wanted to perform with Broadway musicals in the pit orchestras. Somehow, I wound up in the military. Close enough.

-'''Are you like the Blues in the Books?'''
+;How did you first get into the series?
+A friend kept harassing me into reading them and I finally gave in.
-I think so, in ways. I do tend to plot and scheme all the time. I've always traveled a lot, mostly to perform places (I'm a musician,) but also to support causes such as Habitat for Humanity or with the US Army.
+;Who is your favorite "hero"?
+Probably [[Perrin]] or [[Egwene]]. Some of the others are too annoying.
+;Favorite bad guy/gal?
+[[Lanfear]].
-'''Do you plot and manipulate? Do you travel a lot?'''
+;Favorite book and scene?
+That's hard to choose!
-As detailed above, I sure do. If I gave you anymore details, I'd have to kill you. :) *taps her fading halo*
+;If you were set down in Randland, who/what would you see yourself as? An Aes Sedai? Innkeeper? Seanchan Captain?
+Probably an Aes Sedai. I always wanted to be magical so bad, so that would be the most logical place for me.

I stayed because I loved the people here and made so many friends, and I really loved the forums and wanted to be a real part of them.
-'''How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?'''
+;What do you do in "real life"?
+Work, mostly. I'm a full-time paralegal/medical NCO for the Army National Guard. I also spend a lot of time with friends when I can.
-It was pretty good. I made some great friends as a Junior Member and learned a lot from all the Senior Members before me. I was mostly nervous and new as a citizen; as a Novice, I was cheerful and mischievous, and never could quite accomplish getting a penance. As an Accepted, all my time was geared towards becoming an Aes Sedai, so I suppose the JM career was pretty fun!
+;Do you have any hobbies?
+Shopping! I also enjoy reading, obviously, along with everyone else here. I try to travel as often as I can and love finding new places and restaurants to visit.
+;What kind of music do you enjoy listening to?
+Broadway musicals, 80's, classic rock, some oldies, and some newer artists... I just despise almost all things rap and R&B.

-About a year and a half. Since May 2006.
+;Aside from The Wheel of Time, what are a few of your favorite books/series?
+The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, The Southern Vampire Mysteries, almost anything by Dean Koontz, Stephen King or Nicholas Sparks.. Divergent, The Sword of Truth series... I'm currently on a strange young adult fantasy/horror/whatever kick and a huge dystopian novel kick as well.
+;What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?
+I wanted to be a concert pianist at first, and then I mostly just wanted to perform with Broadway musicals in the pit orchestras. Somehow, I wound up in the military. Close enough.
-'''What things do you do for TV.net?'''
+[[Category:Tower Sworn Interviews]]
-I'm currently a Reporter for the Tar Valon Times and an Eyes and Ears for the Department of Communications.
-'''How did you get to read the Series?'''
-A friend talked the series up for years, and I won't show interest. So finally he sat me down in a chair and wouldn't allow me up until I'd read some of the first book. I still wasn't too impressed, but by then I was vaguely curious as to what happened to the main characters. Before I knew it, I was hooked. Oy.
-'''Who's your favorite character of the series? Favorite Nation?'''
-Elayne, probably. I think her moodiness is pretty funny. Pfft, that's what crazy Rand gets for trying to deal with 3 women, most guys can't handle 1!
-'''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?)'''
-Several. I've been to Dragon*Con a couple of years in a row, and then a few small local events. I loved them. They're both great in their own ways. D*Con is a little hectic, but you get to meet a lot of Tower people at once... Whereas the local meetings are... well, quieter, sort of, but definitely help to build a stronger bond between you and the other attendees, as there's more private time to just chat. I definitely recommend attending future events. After talking to the members everyday online, it's great to be able to attach a real person to the illustrated face.
-'''What kind of music do you like?'''
-Broadway musicals, mostly. Otherwise, mostly rock of any sort.
-'''What are your favorite movies?'''
-This list could go for days. The Guardian, Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean, Just Like Heaven, Rent, Chronicles of Narnia, Eragon, Hook, Chicago, Phantom of the Opera, V for Vendetta, The Boondock Saints, Ice Age, Happy Feet... Ask if you really want more.
-'''What job do you have?'''
-US Army.
-'''Do you have a pet?'''
-cats - Salem, Kit the Kat, and Gucci. And one annoying puppy, an American Eskimo Spitz named Chewy. Craftily named after her famous habit of eating everything I possess.
-'''What languages do you speak?'''
-Just English!
-'''What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?'''
-Famous actress, pianist, violinist, stuff like that.
-'''Moiraine or Siuan?'''
-Siuan. For now. If only because we've gotten to see a little more of her.
-'''Shienar or Saldea?'''
-Saldea, I suppose. As long as I can learn the sa'sara.
-'''Tea or coffee?'''
-Tea!
-'''Books or movies?'''
-... I can't have both? :(
-'''A short bio about yourself.'''
-I'm 22 years old and attending college in Alabama. My major is Music and Criminal Justice, minor is military science. I'm a member of Delta Zeta sorority, Sigma Alpha Iota, ROTC, and a few other time-consuming activities. I'm in the US Army Band, which is even more time consuming, somehow. My favorite color is pink. I'm obsessed with sparkly things, butterflies, and teaching myself strange projects. I'm also engaged to a wonderful guy named David, and I'm pretty excited about that!
