Chao1. Polar Bear2. Silver Blue - a beautiful color that symbolizes intelligence. 3. The Chemical Elements Song - Tom Lehrer 4. November 1 - The beginning of NaNo 5. Blue Topaz - It is a traditional stone for writers, scholars, artists, and intellectuals; and used for aiding higher thinking. 6. Paige Turner - Page turner? As in turning the pages of a book? *flails* 7. How about the children's game of Koffer packen? - For those not in Germany, Koffer packen means “Packing a suitcase.” Children sit in a circle and pretend to “pack” a suitcase. The first child says the first item (for example, pajamas). The second child says the first item and adds an item of her own. This continues around the circle with each child repeating the list and adding another item to the suitcase. If a child makes a mistake, she’s out. The last child remaining wins a treat. 8. Writing 50,000 words for last year's NaNo is impressive; congratulations. I also liked how you organized PM-a-Friend last year and helped me connect with other forumers.9. I enjoyed talking about Christmas with you last year; you're very nice to talk to.10.Your mystery category is this: what kind of punctuation do you remind me of? Question mark - there is just so much I don't know about you that I'd like to learn.  *** Kristykimmy, PFAYes, I'm still taking new people for this project so I'll add you two to the list. Please bear in mind that it may be awhile before I get to you based on how many others are before you and how fast I'm doing these.

Question mark - there is just so much I don't know about you that I'd like to learn. Awwww.... that is so fantastic! And while I had no idea what you'd come up with for me, I think it all fits perfectly. I had never heard the song before, but it's fun and just to let you know how good a fit it is: I was waiting all the time for Darmstadtium come up, but then realized that this element was discovered much later than the song was written.  And "Ich packe in meinen Koffer" (I pack in my suitcase) is a really great game. Especially in the evening in summertime when you are sitting with a group of friends in the garden or on the beach... you can add gestures to accompany the items, but it doesn't require any tools or cards or dice, so you can literally play it everywhere. Though it can be dangerous if one of the gestures is climbing on the chair and the plastic chair breaks... XD |

I feel weird asking for compliments. Though what you are doing is very sweet and I appreciate the effort you are making for people.  |

A pencil - for writing of course! Aww, thank you Kozma. Inky was the name of my mom's cat that she had when I was little. I have very fond memories of him, so the fact that you'd choose that nickname for me is touching. It's also funny you chose the color orange and an orange stone for me. When I was a kid, I hated orange, and resented being born in November because all the topaz birthday jewelry was orange. However, as I've gotten older and drawn more, I've realized how important a color orange really is. I can honestly say that I like the color orange now. Also, you can PM me any time to ask about old Neopets. |
