Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

Hi everyone! I'm at high school and I live in Fairbanks in Alaska. I like soccer, gaming (still got a nintendo 64!) and literature (of course). I read Camus, Kafka, and besides literature I like to study philosophy.

Ello, all.

I don't really remember how I found this site, but the first thing I used it for was to read Vanity Fair...I'll be around a lot as I can rarely get to a library and most of the books I'm looking for are on the site.

I'm big on reading but I didn't make the leap from the Teen Fiction section of my local bookstore to the Literature section until sophomore year of high school (which I just finished). I'm on the Academic Team at my school, and I specialize in English, so...I kind of needed to start reading the heavy stuff. :P

I'm in the International Baccalaureate Program, and I like to read, write, draw, dance, and sing. Big on the fine arts. ;) I'm known to be a big grammar nazi, as well.

I guess that's all. I'll see you around!

Hi there,

I live in Doha, Qatar. I'm Filipino but I prefer my first language to be English instead of Tagalog. I hope I can get along with well with you guys.

Hello all my real name is Jonathan, I am from Tx, USA. My hobbies are girls, drums, philosophy, poetry, paintball, video games (in particular Age of Conan), and having intellectual arguments... I first joined this site for poetry reasons but there seems to be a very good basis for people who enjoy philosophy and I have made a transition to the philosophy thread, but I also read up on the poetry thread sometimes. Hit me up if you ever wanna jam out or have any interesting thoughts that may revolutionize western thought as we know it!!!

Smoogles is the name
Literature is the game.

Hi everyone

This site is fantastic. I have just completed my first year of a BA in English Literature so, will be around for a while.

Just dropping in here to say hi! I made a intro thread. :)

"These forums were created to promote reading, sharing, and discussion of literature, poetry, philosophy, teaching, religious texts, and writing. ..."

Sounds like a great idea - and so I joined.

I found this site after entering "understanding Ulysses" on the Google page. I am beginning to begin with Ulysses (by Joyce). A search on Wikipedia indicated that one could not begin to understand the Ulysses document (not certain if it is a novel?) unless you have some understanding of Homer's Odyssey (I guess Ulysses is a latinized "Odysseus"). So far, that strategy seems to be working - but I feel that I will get more enjoyment from my efforts if I collaborate with others to understand.

til - later ... Dilettante_I_am

Hi!

I'm actually not "new" in that sense since I joined about a month ago...I only just activated my account so I can post though. However, prior to and during that month, I read many of the posts of fellow users. Intimidated by the sheer intellect of some, tickled by the humour of others, and disgusted by the dogged stupidity of yet others, I am glad to be a part of this forum.

I also wonder whether anyone wil read this welcome message.

BTW, I'm from Ghana in West Africa. Glad to meet you all.

hi everyone. Iam new here, and still finding my way around. This site is incredibly interesting. I am a housewife and my interest in reading is eclectic and long standing. I also write scripts.

Hi y'all!!!

I'm just glad to be here...
