Cealestis al'Dyren, Senior Member Interview, December 18th 2008


What is your Tower name?

Cealestis al'Dyren


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

Since February 8th, 2007


How was your time as Citizen/Novice/Accepted?

Oh, I have loved my time at those ranks. I don't remember all too much about Citizenhood, I do remember that I was rather shy and still not very confident. Then, when I was raised to Novice... It was the time of my life :D I think of all the ranks I liked my time as Novice best. I had an awesome time, getting to know people better (and spamming my head off, shhh!!). When I was raised to Accepted... I knew what I wanted :p. It was fun and it was great to mean a bit more to the site. I had a great time guesting, even though I didn't guest long.


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

January 17th 2008


Why did you choose Green?

It was my home. Although Green isn't the most active Ajah, it always appealed to me most. I got to know the Green Aspirants and the Aes Sedai at the time and I felt that we had a real click. That was important to me. When I started guesting I found out that the Greens weren't too active in their Sitting Room either, but when you post a thread yourself you always get a quick reply, warm and loving replies, whatever the thread's about. The Greens are all wonderful, warm, strong and passionate ladies and I am more than proud to call myself an Aes Sedai of the Green Ajah. Mind you, I didn't join the Ajah just for the ladies - although they are grand, if I had felt the Ajah didn't fit me, I'd not have decided to join it.


Do you like to party, love men and are you a sucker for fashion and make up?

I party... Once in a while. I love men *and* women and I love fashion - I care less about make up but I do wear it every day.


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

I'm bonded to Anduin of Val'Cueran.


What things do you do for TV.net?

I made these interviews possible. I've been moderator for Mundane World between July 1st-December 31st 2008. I've also been Heart of the Green Ajah during the same term.


How did you get to read the Series?

My ex was absolutely fascinated by the books. I wondered what they were about, picked them up and never let go again. I did quickly let go of the ex, though.


Who is your mentee, if you have one?

Accepted Alatariel and Novice Amaryla.


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

Definitely Mat. I liked Tuon lots too. And Aviendha, she rocks. My favorite nation would be the nation of the Aiel.


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 went to EuroParty 2008. It was TERRIFIC. I had a great time and got to meet people I had long wished to meet. We had so much fun just talking, hanging out... And friday night beerpong absolutely rocked. I would absolutely go to EuroParty again, the vibe's really relaxed. I'm also planning on attending Anniversary party 2009.


What kind of music do you like?

www.last.fm/Jolinar ;)


What are your favorite movies?

I'm a big fan of movies. I even wanted to be a director, when I was little. I think my alltime favorite is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. But I like lots other movies too. We should elaborate on it in a pm, if you are interested :p. I'm always up for a chat!


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

I do crazy/stupid things all the time *sigh*


What job do you have?

I am a fulltime psychology student but I also work for an institution that takes interviews from people, and I have to type those recorded interviews. Boring work but it pays well.


Do you have a pet?

Yes, although he lives at my mom's place. A pretty cat, named Sylvester, and he's the sweetest cat in the whole world.


What languages do you speak?

I'm a native Dutch speaker, I speak English fluently, agreat deal of German and French, tad bit of Spanish but I'm afraid I lost most of it already. I've also taken a course in Japanese a while ago.


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

Vet, dolfin trainer, archaeologist... But also a fashion designer and a movie director.


Elayne or Cadsuane?

Cadsuane by far.


Aiel or Atha'an Miere?

Hard one, I like them both lots. But if I'd really have to pick, I'd pick the Aiel.


Winter or summer?

Winter because of the cosiness.


Day or night?

Night.


A short bio about yourself.

My real name is Manon and I was born in 1989. I live in Utrecht, The Netherlands and I study Psychology at the University of Utrecht. Yeah, and if you want to know more feel free to pm me, or if you have questions or just want to chat... I like pms ;).
