Hey Jade. Welcome to YWO! I am Quietus... Haha. Hope you enjoy yourself here. Remember: Read, crit, write!
So what do you like writing?
Hiya Jade! I'm Alex, you'll probably get to know me decently if you stick around ((which you should unless... well just stick around ><))
I'm sure more people will come through here with better advice than a newbie like me, but just PM me if you have a question and I'll do my best to point you to someone who actually knows how to do things =]]]
Ha I'm super random when it comes to writing... thriller, horror (more like an attempt at horror... haha), romance, fantasy... pretty much anything. Poetry is awesome, too.

Hi Jade, I'm Jess. I like you, cause I also play the Piano, what songs do you know? What's your favorite. I like questions. I'm in a good mood, you're lucky ^^
My favorites on the piano are Linus and Lucy (aka:the Peanuts theme song) and Fur Elise.
Jessica
01-23-2008, 04:26 AM
Woot, my two are Fur Elise and Piano man :D I had to play Linus and Lucy so much I ended up hating it
Well if you ever find yourself at a crossroads of who you want to critique, just know I'm always open to them =]]]
hahaha I love advertising nahh I'm jk you don't have to, unless you want to, and if you want to you have to.
Its a never-ending circle
Yeah right now I have to learn the Pride and Prejudice theme, and needless to say I HATE IT!!!!!!!!!!
Jessica
01-23-2008, 04:32 AM
Right now I'm learning Your Song by Elton John, I love it =P Oh, and John Lennons Imagen, but also, those are easy and will take me about three days to master
How long have you been playing piano?
Hey Jade, welcome:D How long have you been playing the piano? I do too but only for a few years...
Also what style of guitar do you play?
I'm inquisitive tonight:P
Jessica
01-23-2008, 06:44 AM
How long have you been playing piano?
A few years, you?
I started about seven years ago for about two or three years, but kind of quit for a while. I've just recently taken if up again. So I'm having to re-learn alot, it sucks ;)
EDIT: Oh yeah, I play an acoustic/electric guitar. It's a Crafter (aka: CHEAP!!!! haha) It's blue... haha I love it.

I play the piano too, and I prefer it because I don't play any other instruments. I might be considered a pretty decent pianist, except I don't practice. -grin-
I love French also. I can't pretend that I can speak the language, but I can love it all the same.
That's a lot of eyes.

Hold up.
You're an artist?
You can't be serious! :D :D :D :D :D :D
What do you usually do? Oh, and welcome to the site ^^

Hi, Jade well to the site! :D Im new too! Guitar and Piano huh!?! Thats really cool, Im kind of a band geek! What kind of things do you draw?
Rafael Domination
01-23-2008, 07:59 PM
You, a band geek? :D
(I'm more of a sci-fi geek, but I try to get over it :P)
Hold up.
You're an artist?
You can't be serious! :D :D :D :D :D :D
Hmm... do I sense a bit of sarcasm?? ;)
With painting, I usually do landscape/scenery type stuff. Drawing... I guess the best way to describe it is just realistic type people. Like I'll have my friends pose for me and I'll draw them or I'll find old pictures and draw them... I also draw anime:P... or at least I try to.
What about you?
Rafael Domination
01-23-2008, 09:00 PM
I am SOOOOO NOT being sarcastic :D
Neuooo...I happen to look for them. I mean, there are only a few on this site. So, yeah, welcome again ^^
I'm also into anime (check the A.R.M'D. thread in the art forum. I try to focus my stuff on more digital work nowadays, but I haven't forgotten my little sketchbook yet :D
Scenery interests me as well, but I have a bad habit to adding a little bit of anime spice to them :P
Well, while on the topic of geeks I'm a sports geek ((greatest oxymoron ever I know))
but I'm horrible at art. I'm the one person in my 125 person grade that got a B in 6th grade art =]]]
I will be taking beginning guitar next year though so then we'll have something in common
untill then.... *shuns* jkjk
What sports do you like??
Oh I'm a huge sports buff. I love to watch American football most ((and I like to play it most)) but I love to study baseball. I know it sounds wierd, I'm just one of those nerdy kids who has no talent. If I could choose my profession regardless of income there is no way I would be anything other than a sabremetric expert ((baseball statistician)) or a sports writer/reporter, but we'll see on that. I also watch Basketball, Hockey, and Tennis enough but just as a knowledgable fan, not much more =]]]
Jessica
01-23-2008, 09:25 PM
Football! Woo, and by that, I mean Soccer >.>
AWESOME!!! I LOVE playing (yes, playing) football!! Soccer and basketball are cool, too. Haha any semi-to severe sports are fun to watch... yeah I guess I'm crazy...
Jessica
01-23-2008, 09:31 PM
I love playing American Football, it's fun :D. Soccer is loverly also
I does really suck though, when you get hit in the stomach with a soccer ball, can't breathe and almost pass out... ;)
Rafael Domination
01-23-2008, 09:34 PM
Hockey is mine :D
I can't stand basketball
I mean, there's only a certain amount of time before I loose patience at the guy cockily bouncing the ball right in front of me. I despise not being able to run him down, unlike Hockey :P
sweet, very nice.
Oh and no offense to soccer lovers ((and I like to watch it whenever I'm in Romania, don't get me wrong)) but soccer is not a severe sport. Soccer takes indurance and not much else. Rugy - Severe, Football - Severe, Hockey - Severe, Soccer - Not even close
just my opinion
and you want some serious baseball, then check this out

yeah, thats right, now thats serious!
Jessica
01-23-2008, 09:36 PM
But the Fifa cup!!!
I never said specifically that soccer was severe (unless I'm playing it... then it gets interesting...)
No offence, baseball sucks.
I like watching hockey, never played it though. I should put that on my list of things to do before I die...

I like football, I've never played American football before though. When I was at Primary school I was in the football team, sadly we only got three goals in the whole season and two of them were own goals . . . :D
Anyway, welcome. I'm new too, so we can be Newbie's together. :)
I won't argue with you, but baseball is for junkies like me. Its just not as much action thats all, but if you love it like I do then you LOVE it. *goes to cry because Jade says baseball sucks* nahh jk, I know alot of people who think so
anyywayy just have fun with me hating you forever nahhh I'm jk hahahah see I'm funny
Only reason I don't like it is I had to play it in grade school, and they never explained it to me, so I never really understood it. Thus, I didn't have fun playing it.
Ok, ok, quit crying...haha...
Rafael Domination
01-23-2008, 10:01 PM
I'd play baseball if we had to use grenades, we're immortal and the playing feild had land mines :D
So...yeah...I'm looking forwards to see your art here ^^
wahhhh 'noooooo!! I can't helpppp meeez
It is a complicated game though I will give you that ><
Rafael Domination
01-23-2008, 10:15 PM
Which one? The suicidal baseball game?
So...yeah...I'm looking forwards to see your art here ^^
:blush: erm... well I don't have a scanner (and all my art is scetch-bookish) so unless I'm a complete idiot (which is entierly possible) I won't be able to get any on here...
Rafael Domination
01-23-2008, 10:59 PM
A) You don't sounf like an idiot
B) Ergo, you ain't one
C) Have you tried your school scanner? :D
GeorgeMichael
01-23-2008, 10:59 PM
Oh my God Alex, I had to watch it twice... at first I thought the ball was hit so hard that it exploded or something :D *sigh* that was great.
Anyways, Soccer is very severe if you play it... ... wrong.... or if you don't like someone on the other team... (If you can't guess Soccer is my numero uno sport :))
And secondly, Hi Jade! Welcome to the site. I hope you have fun here and if you have any questions you can PM me at any time.
P.S. you got extra cool points from me just for having Snoopy as your avatar
...
SNOOPY!!!!
A) You don't sounf like an idiot
B) Ergo, you ain't one
C) Have you tried your school scanner? :D
I'm homeschooled...
Hmm... do I sense a bit of sarcasm?? ;)
Ehehe, I don't think Rif-Raff is ever sarcastic:P
You're homeschooled? Sweet.
Being homeschooled is awesome, and also George... we agree to disagree lol =]]]
Alex, you're homeschooled??
no, I just like the concept =]]]
Well then, yes it is awesome!! I've been homeschooled since fifth grade, and it's way better than the public school I went to before.
I bet, I would love to be homeschooled as long as I lived in a neighborhood with alot of kids =]]]
Well, there a tons of teens where I live, so it's all good :)

The conversation has shifted, but:
Soccer is severe. I don't know how many people get hurt in the other sports, but we don't really have faceguard stuff and whatnot. I've escaped with everything except a strange immobility in my right ring finger, but that's because I know how to fall. They all know how to fall, of course, but they fall wrong and fake their injuries. And people really do get hurt. I love to watch professional soccer when it's not severe, because there's much more skill involved with getting the ball away without kicking their legs or pretending to trip. Then again, sometimes you just have to fight, and even fighting isn't enough. I turn insane on the field. And it's amusing when people get yellow cards. And red cards. Unless they're people I like.
-tears up-
Other sports -- meh. I'll probably watch my first Super Bowl ever next ... Sunday? Sunday after next Sunday? I won't understand much, but I'll cheer for the Giants, because that's GRRM's team, and GRRM is my favorite author. xD
Meh, the Patriots are going to kick the Giant's butts.

Superbowl!
Yay!
I'm only watching cuz Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are playing the halftime show!
Oh, and welcome to YWO!
I could get into a superbowl discussion, so I guess I will.
I don't respect Belichek and his shady methods of winning games. I'm positive that Brady's boot is over-done, making the giants have to gameplan for Matt Cassel. Luckily for the Giants they are pretty similar in there style, except Cassel goes deep more often. The Giants will win this game 5% of the time, and I hope to death that this is one of those times. I don't know how many more games like this Eli can put up, but if he can give them a 65% completion with two touchdowns, an interception and 220 or so yards then he has done his part. It will be up to Brandon Jacobs, Ahmad Bradshaw, and Reuben Droughns to carry the load 40 times in this game and control the clock against a finesse Patriots defense. Amani Toomer should have a good game if Coughlin gameplans right because Samuel is to good of a cornerback for Manning to throw towards more than 8 times in the game.
Hope the Giants win, and I'm the only one who probably understood that lol

I'm with you, Alex.
And I understood that. Not ALL writers are sports dumb.
At least not me...
I just don't like the Patriots cuz they beat my Chargers...
Heh.
They're like the Yankee's in my opnion. They buy their wins with all that money.
Too many superstars and no up and comers...
Patriot's have a hotter quaterback ;)
And Alex, I understood that, too. Made perfect sense.
Tom Brady looks like an oversized oompa-loompa
you want the definition of hotness, check out Matt Hasselbeck's brother, Tim. Now a bald man, I'm just all over that =]]]
Hes Eli Mannings backup so yes, that was relevant
*pukes* you think that guy is hot? whoa... well, it is your opinion...
Tom Brady's ok... Eli Manning is too cocky and full of himself looking, well he looked like that in the last picture I saw of him.

As Donald Trump said, "I don't find Angelina Jolie attractive".
I agree with him.
(Here comes the, "dude are you kidding?)
:D
i was kidding about the tim hasselbeck thing, but man is he not a looker?
