Senior Member Interview, September 8, 2011
- Why did you choose Gray?
Gray is my home... Oh, you want a less cheesy but completely honest answer. Ok, Here goes. When I read the books I assumed I was a blue... all the cool cats are blues, they go out and make change in the world, and that was where I was headed. I was going to take the world my storm (by the way, I have taken the world by storm, I have made change in the world, and I will continue to do so, but as a gray, not a blue as my story will show). When I got into the tower, I posted in all the ajahs rooms (this was before guesting) and felt most comfortable in the Gray. I still posted in Blue, because no way was I some scheming conniving Gray... I was a Blue, I knew I was blue. But there was a disconnect when i was there. The lovely ladies of the blue were silly and around (aka, active) and fun, but I felt more at home with the Grays. I finally figured it out. Gray feels like home because it is my home.
- Are you like the Grays in the Books?
My definition of the Grays, ya, I am TOTALLY like that. I love to educate, as in teach people things they did not know, or show them a new perspective, usually my perspective. I went to College in an area with politics that differed WILDLY from my own. My best friends out there were on the complete opposite side of the fence. Grays (and I) have the ability to be flexible, to change from within, and to look past differences to achieve goals. This is what I mean when I say I have still changed the world. The world needs the unyielding blues to go out and fight for their beliefs, but the world then needs the grays to come in and deal with the fallout caused by such abrasive tactics...
(am I making ANY sense?? I hope so, because this is starting to feel like my manifesto or something)
- Do you love politics and do you like to discuss a lot?
Yes, and yes. So much. I love to know what other people think, and why and try to get them on my side, though i have no problem agreeing to disagree and going out Swing Dancing instead of debating.
- How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?
How was my time? It was great. I remember as a citizen, a bunch of us made the GC club, Garbage Can Club... the GCs were awesome, we had these pimped out Garbage Cans we lived in and had a generally awesome time. I remember that I raced through Novice and became accepted the second I could, but for some reason, I delayed taking the final step to become Aes Sedai. I don't have a clue as to why. But Gray was my home, and there was more to the site, so, I bit the bullet and became a full blown Gray, and have been ever since.
- How long have you been a member of TV.net?
Uh, I think I joined in '05, my Junior Year of High School. My best friend and I saw each other once a week for a while, and I would read a book and she would lend me the next book, and I would read it in the week. This went on for 5 weeks, and then a little more than a week was needed per book... She wanted me to sign up for the Site right away, before I'd read the books, but I negotiated down to I'd read one of the books, and then join. And the rest is history.
- How did you get to read the Series?
See above... seriously, things got a little hairy there for a minute. I was not doing any homework (though I never really did do my homework) or sleeping or watching TV, I was reading these books, so that no time would go by that I didn't know what was happening next. Now, I wish I had spaced it out so that these LONG PERIODS OF WAIT would not be so painful... (the end is SO CLOSE, I can TASTE it)
- Who is your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?
Faile is awesome! I know I am not like her, but I think I would like to be. As to nation, well, again, I think I will be boring here and say Andor, I love the people that come out of there, and I could see myself quite happy in Andor.
- 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 have never been to one of the Huge official ones, but I have loved the small informal gathering game that has been going on since my first get together with the Grays of Massachusetts (when there were more of us)
- What kind of music do you like?
Songs you can sing along with. Folk Music. Klezmer and Yiddish Music. Simon and Garfunkel, the Beatles, the list goes on.
- What job do you have?
I will soon be teaching English in the Republic of Georgia. I think teacher is what I want to do in the future as well.
- Do you have a pet?
NO, not a fan of animals as a general rule.
- What languages do you speak?
English and Yiddish well, Spanish not so well, and Russian and Georgian barely, though that will change soon.
- What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?
First I was going to be a Ballerina, because you can't be President until you are 35, so what else would I do until then. So, Ballerina until I am 35, then President for 8 years, but what next. Well I still wanted to make change in the world, so I would THEN become a princess. I was going to redistrubute the wealth by having everyone in the world give their money to the fire fighters (I felt firefighters were most trusted) and then the whole world would line up around the world (I think I was influenced by that picture of all the people holding hands around the world) and the Fire Fighters would go around and give everyone one dollar until everyone had one, and then they would go around and give one more dollar, and this would go on until we ran out.
Yes, I was (am) a weird kid....)
- Lanfear or Moghedien?
Moghedien, I like the spider in the shadows over the brazen here I am Lanfear.
- Seanchan or Shara?
Shara, we know WAY less about them, and I want to know more!
- Candles or lamps?
Lamps, the flickering of candles gives me a headache
- Party or lounging at home?
Lounging at home with my friends. We have our own kind of party, it is called playing board games and singing all night.
- A short bio about yourself.
More? What else is there to say? I am a spatially efficient (other people say short) happy person who needs a couple friends, a good book, and the a world to explore to be happy, which I generally am. I can't really think of anything else to say...
