Welcome to Gaia! ::

More then likely "The Gathering" ....then "Long and Short", "Gypsy Carnival and Sea Dog Nights", "Autumn War", and then "Blackthorne Revel" to top it off.

Mine shall be Winter War... in a week and a half...
then Avacal Investiture, and War Practice.

This year, I probably only going to The Gathering, Seadog Nights and The Blackthorne Revel.

But then, I can't miss The Blackthorne Revel cause I'm the autocrat. stressed rofl

I'm going to an event this Saturday. Midwinter's Dance in Atlantia. It's my first Atlantian event... Fear...

~does the happy dance~

I didn't want to say this sooner, because it was still up in the air!
But

I GET TO GO TO THE ST.CHRISPIN'S REDO IN TIR BANNOG!! heart heart heart

xd Sorry, it's just really good news for me!! 3nodding

Nita, do you know if there will be archery? ~fingers crossed~

And I'm definatly entering that competition .... do you know if there are any criteria? eek

So I went! Stayed until about 9:39-ish, then drove the three hours home! xd

Sang 4 songs, one with Nita, and lost the bardic competition, TO THE ONLY GUY PARTICIPATING! rofl (I really wanted that pin >.>)
But it's all good - almost had a heart attack before & during! xd

Then came in second in the A&S mask competition .... appearantly lots by about 2 marks - they decided on the base that Magpie's was more comfortable! xd I just laughed - esecially, since I didn't even know my mask was entered! eek I just left it on the table beside my camera while I went to get food, the next thing I know they're annoucning I came in second? .... (Nita, was that you? or Ysabelle? xd )

And then forgot a plate there, and didn't get my knocking bead put on my bow (next time appearntly).

And - got everybody's picture with my mask! 3nodding Even the guys! And even the one who originally refused - until I said out loud that everyone else and I mean EVERYONE else had done it, then everyone came and picked on him and made him do it! biggrin heart

(That's the one that started it all, I was bored and holding it in the direction of ... 'Unpronouncable' xd as Ysabelle has deamed him, out of bordom to see what he'd look like! rofl And then he took it and used it, and right away four people (I being one of them) quickly go digging for cameras, and he had to look to his left ~picture~ turn to the right slightly ~picture~ turn to his right a little more ~picture~ then turn completly to his right for me ~picture~ rofl Doesn't he look cute in the butterfly mask? rofl



So - the next event I believe is Penguin
- and I believe that means that TIR BANNOG must come to ME this time! twisted heart

(That means you Nita! And Liam, and Tewl, and Betha, and Ysabelle, and Magpie, and Bailey(she must bring Rowan too! 4laugh ), and ... everyone!! xd )

I think it's because he wrote everything (except 1 piece?) himself (and had the guts to sing even though -love him dearly- he can't sing to save his life)

And unless I'm mistaken, the one story was about the judge (even though we didn't know who the judge was)

And - I bet you anything - she didn't have the guts to pick between the 4 of us, and she used that 'he wrote everything' as an out.

I mean really, you have 4 beautiful voices, and 3 amazing preformers - then you have the only guy, who wrote all his own stuff, and everyone will KNOW they didn't lose, because he had a better voice!

That said ... I have to admit I kinda felt the same! sweatdrop But I mean - put yourself in the judge's position! I bet it was told to her by someone - that hey, he wrote all his own stuff - you don't have to choose between the girls! rofl And she jumped on it! rofl


But ooohhhh boy, did I ever screw up the Highwayman crying shoulda just let gewn sing it sweatdrop BUT FOR THE RECORD, I remembered ALL the words, ALL the verses, IN order - without looking them up .... just after singing one really high song (while trying to remember to be loud) and then that one song with you, RIGHT before... killed my voice! sweatdrop That was the most embarrassing thing ever - having to stop - and twice! whee

And it's because I remembered thier SCA names first - you went as Nita for the longest time!!!! And I forget what your SCA name is now .... and I actually remembered it while I was typing that - but didn't know how to spell it! rofl


And by the way - next even we're both at, you're taking a picture in the mask!! scream I can't BELIEVE I forgot to get you!! gonk

Probably Passing of the Ice dragon.
