Liana Ceana, Senior Member Interview, February 15 2008

What is your Tower name?

Liana Ceana

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

I had to actually check my records on this one. But, I was raised to Aes Sedai of the Yellow Ajah in May of 2006. I began guesting with the Yellows in August of 2005 when I was raised to Accepted. I became a Novice in December of 2004. Was that too much?

Why did you choose Yellow?

I chose the Yellow Ajah because the ideal of being a healer fits my personality. If you're hurting and need something desperately, even if I despise you and/or what you stand for I will set aside my life to help you. For the most part anyway.

Are you like the Yellows in the Books?

I'm not sure I'd say I'm like the Yellows in the books. I didn't even really like them.

Do you care for people and love to heal things?

Well, they tell me I'm a medical professional now. I certainly hope I care for people and love to heal things. Ask me again in 20 years when I'm a disillusioned physician who hates her patients. I sure hope that never happens, though.

How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

I have to say, my time as a citizen was probably the best. Joking around in the apartments (the Crazy People's apartment) was a definite highlight. Novice and Acceptedhood sort of run together in my mind. It was fun, but nothing horribly remarkable happened.

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

Since July of 2004, so...a little over 3 years now.

What things do you do for TV.net?

I am currently a member of the Hall as well as THE Tea Brewer for the Yellow Ajah. I also previously held the position of Heart and occasionally teach a class or two. My current project is reinstating the Yellow Traditions.

How did you get to read the Series?

This is a really long story, I will still attempt to summarize, though. I am dyslexic and I was in special education for a few years. Oddly enough, I didn't figure out that I had been in special ed until a couple of years ago. I would cry every time I had to read something longer than fifty pages. I could write really well, had an amazing vocabulary, and excelled in math and science. Who would have known I couldn’t read. At the end of sixth grade a friend had started to read me excerpts from the Wheel of Time (not the Eye of the World, mind you). So, I went and got the first book. Completely flipped when I realized how long it was, but I was determined. After the first book I realized that I wanted to be able to read more. I don’t go anywhere without a book now. So, I like to say that I taught myself how to read when I was 11 (or was it 12?) from the Wheel of Time one summer and the next year skipped a grade. Now aren't you glad I summarized?

To whom are you bonded, if you're bonded?

I am bonded to Naeris Vell'sean of DM and wouldn't have it any other way.

Who is your mentee, if you have one?

My current mentee is Kasia a very lovely Accepted.

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

Elaida is my favorite character and I don't have a favorite Nation.

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 yet to attend a real life function. I just don't have the time or capacity to get to any of them. I hope to some day, though.

What kind of music do you like?

Lots, though no specific genre.

What are your favorite movies?

I don't remember the last time I watched a movie. Wait, it was last week, no clue what it was. I like movies like Pan's Labrynth the most but I still enjoy the occasional Transformers type movie.

What is the craziest/stupidest thing you've ever done?

What do I do that isn't crazy and/or stupid?

What job do you have?

I am a student doctor.

Do you have a pet?

I am owned by three cats who live at my parents' house.

What languages do you speak?

I speak English, French (not so great any more), ASL (still learning probably won't get much better though), SEE sign (though technically that's still English)...um...does medical jargon count?

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

I've always wanted to be a physician.

Min or Aviendha?

Um...Aviendha! Min is by far the most annoying of the two. Though, Aviendha isn't too far behind her.

Sword or Spear?

Spear.

Candy or Cookies?

I'm allergic to most candies and cookies.

Clothing or Make up?

Huh? Clothing or Make up? I don't like shopping for clothes, shopping for make up is okay. But I hate wearing make up and I don't exactly go nude anywhere (except...).

A short bio about yourself.

Not much to say. I'm a student doctor and I have pretty much no life. I'm prone to forgetting to eat. That's why Miridy is around to tell me when I'm being stupid.
