Thanks, Virgil :).

I liked Volpone very much :nod:. There were so many intrigues and secret motives you really had to pay attention to who was fooling whom. What I found the most interesting point to the play is that I think Jonson might have raised the audience's sympathies rather for the avaricious and immoral Volpone than for his more decent antagonists, just because the former is so much wittier :p.

I don't think that I've boasted before, so here I go :D :
After having survived a couple of interviews and group discussions and a presentation, I was awarded the national scholarship I was applying for :banana: :D

Congratulations! No suprise here, you're the smartest cookie around! :D

We played Shelock Holmbert in LARP and almost solved the case - that is - we said: it is either A or B, but since it seems that A has a slight motive, A is more probable. Actually it was B who was a gambling addict and killed so that it wouldn't come out that she had taken money from the restaurant budget where she was working, but since everyone who knew the fact were silent about it, and didn't say anything about it, we guess that it was best we could achieve.
Everything else was correct besides that tiny detail.

I held back my tears, when I was feeling I wouldn't be able to live without having a fit of tears. And I survived. I survived better than I would have if I would have let my tears out.

Ummm.....I think it was something to boast about.....

I knew you were a very brave girl, Pensy :nod:. I hope you're feeling better now.
If you feel like it, come over here and we'll have some cookies freshly made by moi (to quote lovely Drama :)).

And I know it's even better than that. I've put on a bit of muscle, and muscle weighs like twice as much as fat. So not only have I lost weight, I've lost quite a bit of fat and replaced it with muscle. I can feel my pants are loose again!:thumbs_up

:( I have to unboast. :( I've put back half of what I lost. I'm still exercising but I've been eating larger portions again. Still my waist has not grown so it may just be muscle and natural water fluctuation. Still, I'm failing...:bawling: :bawling:

Shocks you have to boast something too!

I have not grown an inch in the past decade.

Lol.

Ummm....I got 80% in this very very difficult essay-lots of my peers failed and no one I've spoken got more than 65%. So yayyy!
