Senior Member Interview

Loira Al'Ramoidra, Senior Member Interview, May 6 2009

What is your Tower name?

Loira Al'Ramoidra

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

In May, 2008.

Why did you choose White?

It's much about this...gut feeling, you really do know when you have found your home. The Whites...nothing beats their humor and the closeness we have. You have their full support no matter what happens. I like what the White Ajah stands for at TV.Net, the stereotypical logic that while it may not make sense to anyone else, it makes sense to yourself *lol*...The White Ajah is like a prism, a mix of several Ajahs, so you got room for all your stripes and whatnot!

Are you like the Whites in the Books?

Meh. No, I wouldn't say I am. I'm most definitely not cold and stupidly careless for what happens around me. And I'm not secretly Black =P

Are you like a rock and have a serene face all the time?

Ha! All I got to say. I'm as passionate as the most stereotypical Green ;) I laugh a lot and do funny faces more often than I'm serene.

How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

Citizen: not too exciting. I was still so shy back then, that I didn't say a word! But when I managed to get myself some sponsors and joined the crazy Tower, I lightened up and the fun started. I really enjoyed being both Novice & Accepted. I was, well still am, very active and try to keep up with most places haha.

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

Since January 2007.

What things do you do for TV.net?

Um..I contribute in my own way? I try to spread the joy I feel each time I sneak around on the boards...I am currently a Moderator...and I've been writing stuff for the Library. I'm also spreading my positive energy *cough* on events, both official and local!

How did you get to read the Series?

My English teacher in 6th grade told me to go pick some thicker books than those I read at the time. WoT was the thickest I could find.

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

Not Bonded.

Who is your mentee, if you have one?

Enya Tawarwaith, who is Sedai herself by now, and Asine Dormandi.

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

Nynaeve, Lan & Moiraine are all my favs. Each so strong, funny and...special! I have no favourite nation...but I guess I would have liked the Borderlands.

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?)

Yeah, I've been to three events so far. Euro Summer '08 and '09, and Euro Winter '09. I loved it very much and will definitely make it a tradition. It was fantastic seeing so many of my friends from the boards and realize that they're actually my friends in real life as well ;p Everyone who's in for a fun weekend should try out a TV.Net event!

What kind of music do you like?

Classic rock, some electronic/synth, indie pop...

What are your favorite movies?

Gone With The Wind, Billy Elliot, The Full Monty, Smiles of a Summer Night...just to mention a few!

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

That shall be left unsaid.

What job do you have?

Um, I'm a student. But I work summertime at a nursing home.

Do you have a pet?

No.

What languages do you speak?

Swedish, English, some French. Then I understand Norwegian and some Danish.

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

I wanted to be a cook!

Randland or our world?

Our world. I would not know how to deal with having real Aes Sedai powers in the work.

Alviarin or Seaine?

Seaine, she kicks ass.

Books or movies?

Books. No matter how much of a movie dork I am, I prefer visualising the worlds and characters myself.

Candles or lamps?

Lamps. Too afraid of fire to be completely comfy with candles.

A short bio about yourself.

I'm 20 years old, studying Tourism at University and would be too restless to survive if I didn't get to travel once in a while. I read too much, I watch too many movies and I spend too much time at the computer! I'm insane. I am sharing a flat with a likewise insane friend of mine. I easily get addicted to stuff. I...don't really have anything interesting to add here.
