Vortigan Yeah, high fives and welcomes to all the new Ravenclaws I might have missed! LadyHealingHands Lastly: Quidditch!!! I see we have at least one Ravenclaw who has put in for the captain position. I'm eager to see more from our smart and skillful House - anyone drawn to seeker, keeper or beater? Let's go Ravenclaw!!! I'm thinking of applying for beater or seeker, actually ^_^ Good luck to everyone else who applies for a position on the team! I may only have a Nimbus 1000 SE, but as long as it gets the job doen that's what matters, right? sweatdrop http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b212/escape_sunrise/protection.jpg Of course. Besides, it's a Nimbus, even if it's an older edition, so it's a good quality broom. Actually, I just pulled out my copy of Quidditch Though the Ages to review the rating on it, and it sounds fantastic. If it can reach one-hundred miles-an-hour, I'd say your set. I just have a 1982 edition of the Cleansweep, but if I make the team, I'll go for broke and buy a Nimbus 2000. I couldn't begin to afford the 2001, much less a Firebolt. xp
Hmm... now would be a good time for my Ravenclaw wisdom to jump in...

Psh, Ivy, just ignore it.
razz
It doesn't matter what year you're in.
LHH moved me to 2nd year when I was at like almost a hundred posts. Right now I should have about 205.
And I'm not Third Year, let her figure it!
But frankly, I don't care what year I am because...well...ranking doesn't really matter to me...
^^"
But that's just me.
Oh!
Hey, Brennaka!
It's always nice to see a new Ravenclaw.
I'm sure you'll love it here although we might be off studying pretty often.
But be sure to bug us and have fun, whilst abiding by the rules!

Ah, it feels good to take a break from studying! I have real life exams coming up, and the homework is miserable, but I manage. It seems that I've adapted a new sort of ritual for my homework: instead of grouping one subject together, I swap out whenever my brain can't handle any more, and it seems to help the process move quicker. Of course, four straight hours of homework wasn't a pure... I often punctuated my studying with breaks for reading or music.
I daresay that it become more difficult by the day to get on the computer now that school has started again, with brute force. My brain is still a little "fuzzled" from the two week winter break (though I shan't deny that I wish it would be longer) and getting back onto a stricter routine is difficult. I need to wake up, and fast!
Many happy wishes, I hope to see you all soon!
~Ashley

That's how I study!
I do a line of Chinese or so, then I go and do some History and then some English reading and then I finish my math, do some more Chinese, rinse and repeat.
=D
Not exactly efficient, but it works.
^^
Yea, it's like our finals week, too...
Ehh... gonk
Wait, so is anyone going to do Quidditch here?
And what positions?

Thanks! And I'm often off going about life, too. Which can be translated to "And I'm often off reading something or other." But I wouldn't be a Ravenclaw if I weren't.
So, about Quidditch-my other obsession. What's your favorite professional team?

*Storms into the Common Room* Ugh... I'm gonna have a presentation on how Water Energy is created! gonk
It's a boring subject,really... Ugh.. Stupid Science class. Nearly the entire school has the last two classes off, except us. So unfair~~!
And perhaps I'm a bit late for this, but welcome to Ravenclaw, Bennaka! biggrin It's great to see yet another addition to our house! ^^
Anyway, back to reading "Verdens Energikilder - Vannenergi: Fremtiden eller Fortiden?", on this web page. It's not really interesting to read, since I already knew everything. >.<
Wish me good luck on my presententation in a few minutes! :O

Mine was okay...I had to do tons of errands and so, here I am at my towns library computer. I'm excited because the beatle's cd I requested is here!

Cool! Cerbera, I absolutely LOVE your avatar! It's simple amazing :]
Kitsune, good luck...!
Okay, I may not be on much today, just saying. I'll try and be active starting tomorrow, but finals are coming up and it's hard to maintain good grades and keep up with these forums! sweatdrop

Water energy is awesome!
But I'm only saying that because Washington has hydroelectric dams that power like 80% of all our energy.
blaugh
Haha.
We also used to have that really big nuclear power plant in Eastern Washington...ah, well...
^^"
I hope you did well!
I have to present St. Thomas Aquinas soon and how he was effected by society (in his philosophies)...
I didn't want to think and said that Christianity such as Scholasticism and the era of the Dominican Friars totally effected him, but oh well.
WE NEED MORE CAPTAINS.
I think we need 4 applications per house for a captain to be chosen...?

For future reference guys - feel free to PM either LHH or Orna (me!) if you've noticed a change in year. We don't always notice the change or it may slip our minds to check. I went through and checked ALL of our listed members to be sure that everyone is in their appropriate year.
Thanks and I hope everyone is having a great day! Sorry I haven't been on as much (although I've been logged in via the Gaia Toolbar) because I'm trying to get my licensure done. smile

YAY!
I thought I was supposed to be Third Year. Ah, well. I'm not sure what's happening, but that's pretty cool, still!
I was wondering though, about Quidditch, are captains going to be chosen after 4 applications per house? Because that's what it sounded like when Tahiru was explaining it...I can't wait!

Well, we do the years by the number of posts - you had over 200, which qualifies you for fourth year!

Congratulations, Kita and Empress_Cat!
I think I'm a second year now but whatever xp
It's okay. Whenever they update it, I don't really mind.
Quidditch! Who has already done tryouts?
