    Hey =]]

    Well I'm UK based, and am a sporty person. In my spare time, I mainly exercise/compete my and other peoples horses, but I do go running in the mornings.
    I used to ride pillion on a motorbike, but an accident a year ago halted that [I haven't been allowed back on]. I dislocated my collar bone [sternoclavicular joint], knee, and have been having shoulder, hip, knee, back and neck problems since. Thus why I run - it keeps my knee slightly more in shape xD
    I took my GCSE options, and chose French, drama, textiles and history, on top of the basic subjects [math, english, sciences etc]
    I intend to study Forensic Pathology at university, with a gap year to focus on my riding.
    I hope to be selected for the olympics [we can all dream, right?] but will settle for Europeans.

    That's all about me really, any more questions, ask =]
    xx

    Hi!
    I have no idea what to write about myself....ummm... I'm very sarcastic and I have a whole buncha hobbies. To name a few I like reading (never without a good book), art (I keep a drawing pad and pencils in my purse), writing (oh the joy!), dancing ( I want to do ballroom dancing... oh how I wish *sigh*), annoying friends with my constant talking,and reading (did I mention that already?). I LOVE horses and hiking but ever since I moved to Cali I have been unable to either ride horses or go hiking )^:
    I'm a high school student and plan to become a middle school art teacher when I get older. I was born and raised in California up till about three and a half years ago when I moved to Kentucky for three years and found out that I am a country girl in heart. I moved back to Cali this year before school started ( literally a day before freshman orientation, a week before school started) and found that am definitely not a city girl. I love rolling hill and ride spaces and hat being able to touch the next door neighbors house when I reach out my window. Well, anywho, that's pretty much me in a nutshell.
    Oh yah ,I came here on a friends recommendation and am a complete newbie. (^:

    Hello to all. I am here to begin my journey into the world of avid reading and writing. I have never been interested in reading classic literature and I want to begin. As a matter of fact, what would you recommend as the 5 best of all time. Would you include "The Catcher in the Rye?" I need to broaden my mind with good reading.

    Cool hello-

    Hi everybody, my name is Mike-

    I'm at present into Lawrence Durrelll, DH Lawrence, and Ezra Pound. Especially Durrell. Anyone else??

    I'm also very into Eastern religions esp Krishnamurti. I don't believe in aliens but am otherwise open minded.

    Hey Everyone!
    I'm new to the forums part of this site, although I have been using the literature part of this site for quite some time. Well, about me.... I'm Canadian(you may not know this, but we actually do NOT live in igloos and I don't have a polar bear as a pet...), and I joined because I wanted some advice on books to read. Another reason I joined is because I want to meet others with a passion for the written word, like me! Most people around me don't take me(a highschool student) seriously when I talk about this subject, and they laugh when I express my disgust over only getting to read around 3 books a week because of my busy schedule. They do not understand that this is important to me, and everyone makes time for the things that are important to them!!!
    Well i won't bore you with any more details of my otherwise boring life!
    ~Rae~

    Hi! How's your project going along?

    Obviously you haven't been to the Channel Islands or up in the coastal foothills, there's lots of hiking in those places!

    See you at school!

    Hi hi. =) Uh, my name is Lory, I like reading and doing artsy stuff, and I'm not that smart. Please put up with me anyway. =) Oh yeah, and I'm in high school.
    Maybe, if I stare into the mirror, and wish very hard
    I can change the person I am inside
    And maybe, if I go yet another extra yard
    I can stem those tears I cry

    Well, I only got an 86 in Honors English Essentials, and all my friends got 94s, so...

    But thank you, anyway. I hope I like it, too. =)

    23 years of scool,meaning two colleges and a Faculty of letters,a lot of work and many more failures-first I do not trust myself
    Second -i am caught in ,too involved in what I am doing as a teacher
    I enjoy writing,astrology,design,architecture,I am very interested in reading ,car races,Occult field,A busy person,ambitious and impulsive
    I wish i were a painter like my sister,a bird , a butterfly

    I am glad to be a part of you NEW York ,NEW yORK a part of this fascinating,amazing,spontaneous,fancy-forum

    Wish you all happiness

    Success comes as a result of positive energy and love from your dear ones
    I know I am old fashioned,but sounds like me 1!!!!

    I read poetry and also write poetry,and many papers about writers every day,
