Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

okay... hello. yay first post. :D i hope i have a long and fruitful stay here.

Hullo and welcome to the forum!!!

thanks :-) i enjoyed creating your demise in the other thread. i'm sure you feel the same way.

Ha Ha! And a warm welcome from me too! :)

Welcome all. Have fun! This is a big site and full of all sorts of stuff. If you're having a serious day you can delve into the deep literature posts and if you're having a bit of a chill out day, check out the games in General Chat and the Haiku's in Personal Poetry. See you on the forums. :)

Hi all! Welcome to the forum! :)

This is my first post to your network. I love to read, obviously, and always regret that I do not have more time to do it. I am 25 years old, work at the local hospital in radiology and ride a Suzuki SV650. Those latter two would explain the regret for not reading more.
The last book I read was Dostoevsky's The Adolescent. Finished it today, hooray.
Thank you for this network.

Hello everybody,
I'm a newcomer. Hope to get some help from all of you.

Just wanted to say hello and that I look forward to enjoying this forum.

Hello -yes, I have happily 'stumbled' upon this forum etc and so far have found it to be terrific! I live in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia and am a Teacher of the Deaf, working part time now as I am winding down to retirement! Ha! Ha! I work as a Visiting Teacher which means I work one to one with the hearing impaired students in their own schools and also act as a consultant to their teachers. I am teaching students from 6 years to 17 years. One of my students is studying Animal Farm so I have been reading, reading, reading! Quite a difficult task, breaking it down into easily understood language etc. I am looking forward to reading more posts. thanks!

welcome dude,booker,sier and marjie!

Unfortunately I overlooked this portion of the forum when I first joined. At any rate, I'm 20 years old, and I'm an avid reader and attempting to be an actor in Kansas City. I read a lot of Japanese literature, but don't limit myself to any one country. I'm currently reading "The Ruined Map" by Kobo Abe, and I just finished "Thousand Cranes" by Yasunari Kawabata. I've got a list of books I'm going to work through in the next few months if anyone would like to read, add, or critique it. Thanks for your feedback.

Hi! :) I hope you guys enjoy here. :D
