===Mentoring===
I chose Brown because I had many friends in the Brown Ajah, and I felt that I fit in there very well. They were welcoming and fun, and I knew that I could be honest and myself with these women without ever feeling awkward.

''Updated January 3, 2012''
  
;How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?
+
;Ajah Questions:
I had a great time as a Novice and Accepted. I was lucky enough to be given a mentor who lived only 20 min from me and so I lived a RL version of being a Novice and Accepted. It was fun.
+
;Why did you choose Brown?
 
+
I had friends in Brown
 
 
;How long have you been a member of TV.net?
 
Is it shameful that I don't remember? I think almost two years now.
 
 
 
 
 
;What things do you do for TV.net?
 
Hmmm... I helped make several gowns and masks for members going to the 2006 Anni Party, and I am a member of the Brown Ajah trying to make others feel welcome and comfortable at TV.net.
 
 
 
 
 
;How did you get to read the Series?
 
I have always read fantasy novels, and I needed something new to read. I went to the book store and just browsed the shelves. I found EotW and read the back. I thought it sounded interesting. After that I was hooked and had to read the whole series.
 
 
 
 
 
;To whom are you bonded, if you're bonded?
 
Sadly I am not bonded. I have not found that certain someone who I feel close enough to.
 
 
 
 
 
;Who is your mentee, if you have one?
 
I do not have a mentee :(
 
 
 
  
;Who is your favorite character of the Series? Favorite Nation?
+
;Are you like the Browns in the books? Do you love books and have a tendency to daydream?  
That is a tough one. I think my favorite character was Min until she went all Rand obsessed. I don't have a favorite nation... they all have their interesting quips.
+
I love to read, and I love to learn. Since my diagnosis with MS and the issues there in I have noticed myself becoming more and more absent minded and unaware of the present.  
  
 +
;Do you have a favorite Brown Ajah character from the novels?
 +
I never used to, but once it was announced that Verin was a double agent I was like, "Yeah! Kick A**!"
  
;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?)
+
;Book Questions:
I went to the biggest Anni Party EVER! We had soooo many people there. Over 100 I think. It was the 2006 Anni party, I am not sure if the 2007 party was bigger or not, but either way it was amazing!
+
;How long have you been a fan of the Wheel of Time series?  
I recommended that everyone try to make it to a RL function. It is so wonderful to meet the memebers in RL.
+
Dear lord, I don't remember when I first started reading it!
  
 +
;How did you first get into the series?
 +
I was a fantasy reader since I first began to read chapter books.  I just went to the bookstore looking for something new and came across book 1.
  
;What kind of music do you like?
+
;Who is your favorite "hero"?  
I listen to alternative mostly.
+
Matrim!  Why? Because he reminds me of my Husband! Gorgeous smile, charming, gets out of any trouble he creates.  I have always pictured him as my hubby :P
  
 +
;Favorite bad guy/gal?
 +
Hmm... I don't think we really get to spend a lot of character time with the evil folks in the books, it makes it hard to pick a favorite, or even one that I would relate to.  I guess out of the ideas of them, Messana is my favorite.  Secret, quiet, manipulative...Creating an army to TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!
  
;What are your favorite movies?
+
;Favorite book and scene?  
I love the A&E version of Pride and Prejudice. It is 5 hours long, but it is great!
+
I don't think I can pick a favorite.
  
 +
;If you were set down in Randland, who/what would you see yourself as? An Aes Sedai? Innkeeper? Seanchan Captain? I would definitely be an Aes Sedai.
  
;Do you have a pet?
+
;General Questions:
I have two cats. Ceilidh and Geilynn.
+
;How did you find TarValon.Net and what convinced you to stay and become Tower Sworn?  
 +
I found it by looking for the date when the next book was coming out. I stayed because I formed relationships and made friends.
  
 +
;What do you do in "real life"?
 +
I cut hair.
  
;What languages do you speak?
+
;Do you have any hobbies?  
Just English. I took a little French in high school, but the only thing I remember is the alphabet, numbers to 10, how to say "I don't speak French", how to say "where is the bathroom?", and how to say "I love you".
+
Playing SWTOR, crocheting, painting
  
 +
;What kind of music do you enjoy listening to?
 +
Alternative mostly. 
  
;What profession did you want to have when you were a kid?
+

I wanted to be an actress. I still would love to be an actress, but it is very unlikely to happen.
+
I love Castle, Psych, Criminal Minds, Star Wars (all of them), Harry Potter, Clue, Big Trouble in Little China, The Princess Bride, and most Disney movies.
  
 +
