Good night everyone!

I just arrived at these wonderful forums & am really excited to talk to all of you! My literary journey, both passive and active, has only just begun but I am sure I will discover wonderful things.
I don't feel like I've-got-a-gold-fish-and-like-puppies talk at the moment, but never hesitate to ask anything. But I have got a Livejournal you can take peek at, if I for some reason interest you.

Right now I'm reading: Siddhartha (Herman Hesse), Le Mur (Jean-Paul Sartre), Franny and Zooey (J.D. Saligner) and Schimmenrijk (Rosita Steenbeek). And no, I can not read translations. I read English, German, French, Dutch and Latin. Well, Latin is diffucult for me, so I'd have to say: I can translate Latin. Well. It's almost 2 am here, so I will tell myself to go to bed now.

Looking forward to meeting all of you and discovering beautiful books,
Hayley Zero (which, yes, is a pseudonym. I'm a bit weird about my online anonymity.)

Hi, oh no transcriptions. Interesting. I am learning Latin also. It will be one year since I started to learn it. And welcome.

Have you already fallen in love with Latin? It took me two years to realize how truly beautiful this language is and now I am finally translating the great works; Catullus, Vergilius...!

Great for the two of you; I'm still looking forward to learning a foreignlanguage. I'll have to get to it sometime. :D
