Juniors' Forum

[The Atheist]

Oh Gosh, How did I miss this compliment
I'm all a flutter....

Wow!

I'll just go outside and check the sun hasn't fallen down...

Nope, all ok!

Hi Bajerox, How are the posts going; I think there are quite a few young folks on this site...

I think they're mostly hit & run posters though.

Not many hang around for more than a couple of dozen posts.

I just had a look at the members' list and it's very noticeable that most posters have only two digits in their post total.

There have always been young members on the forum and they have all grown and Matured while frequenting the forum. Their love of Literature and the opertunity to freely discuss (regardless of the genre or age bracket of the book) with the older members of the forum has probably helped them mature into the people they are. Pensive is a wonderful example of that. It has more or less been that way since the forum began.

Are there many though?

The evidence of my attendance here, the members online from the front page and looking at the members' list tends to indicate the opposite - that for the size of the site, very few hang around. Even long-term young 'uns (to me) like bazarov are hardly ever here any more.

Am I counted as a Junior?

I wonder if a lot of the difficulty is still navigating through the many sites.
When I come on the site; i have to hit "new posts", then "general chat"...sometimes there's a delay. If there isn't a post everyday; it can wind up on the second page and no one goes to the second page. I also wonder how many of the younger folks don't like thinking of themselves as "juniors".
I also think alot of the kids message each other.

I haven't read Roald Dahl (unbelievable, isn't it!), but Witches and Twits is a GREAT title. You write very well, and it sounds like you're a good reader. Now, let's see if some more juniors find this thread!

Well Thank-you

I'm so glad to hear that, bajerbox.

My cat is staring over my shoulder; I guess she wants to use the computer. I'm not sure what to get her for Christmas (she's really a boy; but we thought she was a girl...so) She doesn't seem to play for very long with anything. She doesn't like many foods

Hello, Well, we got the cat some catnip, which he really likes and so does all the other cats on the block. He's kind of a depressed cat; so when ever he gets in a bad mood, we bring out the catnip. We also got him a cat shaped laser light. It throws a red glow that he liked to chase until he realized he could never catch it.

I've got a bad cold, so I'm watching movies all day. I watched the new Harry Potter movie, I was kind of disappointed.

How are you

Am I counted as a Junior?

I suppose you might be. Depends what you have to say about books.

My all-time favourite book is Wuthering Heights, although I am not demanding anyone read it. Very difficult.

I am thirteen at the moment. So I guess I qualify.

Has anyone read anything by Christopher Milne? He wrote the Naughty Stories for Good Boys and Girls series. He published then all on his own. I used to totally love those.

I read some of Andy Griffiths work. Loved it. Particularily the three stories entirely based around Jack's rear-end.

The Harry Potter series had a big effect on me as well, I read the The Philosopher's Stone 164 times.

I'm going to have fun with this, I'm going to translate it:

I guess u r. Deps what u talk about.

Best book eva is Wuthering Heights. U don't gotta read it, it's really hard.

I'm 13, I fit in.

Have u heard of Christopher Milne? He wrote the Naughty Stories for Good Boys and Girls seriesand published them. I liked them.

I liked the bum-stories Andy Griffiths did.

I like Harry Potter. I read the The Philosopher's Stone 164 times.

Well, it isn't that different.

Do you like Harry growing up and getting married? I kind of would prefer if they would just leave Harry the same age; I can't quite imagine him marrying Jenny and having children

That end bit didn't really seem real enough to believe. I'm not surprised they ended up together, but I suppose they had to grow up one day.

Thats what I like about cartoon characters, they never get older!
I guess I always thought Herminone would get with Harry. I didn't understand why dumbledore had to drink that water...And I wanted Serious to live. I guess I don't like my favorite characters to disappear...Oh yes, Robert Pattinson is just too much of a hunk to let him go off and become a vampire

I wanted Hermione with Harry. I don't think Ron had enough to offer.

I didn't like Robert Pattinson as Cedric Diggory. I think it was just the character he had to play.

Yes, I wonder why no one ever puts Hermione with Harry. It's logical that as such good friends they would end up together. Actually, I guess I think most of the Weasley kids are kind of lame except the twins; they're really cool. I like the one who keeps dragons later.
How did you like Krum; I kind of liked him with Hermione also.
Cedric...well, I'll tell you, I just like to look at Robert Pattinson...I guess, that is what his agents and the people who cast him are thinking of too.
He looks really good when someone dresses him. He should always have someone to dress him

Krum and Cedric, I don't think are good for anyone.
They are geniouses in their own league, however I think they are doomed to be alone.
Cedric would've turned out alright, if he'd lived, although he always seemed like on of those annoyingly popular people who don't go a long way after highschool.
Krum seemed like a sports nut. Not to be comtemplated.

You are a very practical young lady, and I am sure you are right. Do you think young ladies ever think of just dating boys for the enjoyment of being on a date; or is it always about the future?

Anyway, I thought Krum was kind of sweet with Hermione; and a big ego boost since all the other girls wanted to go out with him.

Cedric, hum, I can see him getting a good job just because he's popular; or marrying into a wealthy family.
