    Welcome to the BTS Hangman game! I'm Lessa and I will be supervising the game. I have a few rules before we start. I'll take up to 10 players but if more sign up, then they will be added. Each puzzle will be based on school spirit or extra curricular activities. RULES: For each correct letter guessed you will receive 2 points. If you guess the puzzle and get it right you get 10 points added on to your score. During each puzzle there will be a list of the letters guessed for that puzzle and the man will have 10 lives. If you've guessed, you're not allowed guess again until another person has had a go. If you want to play or have a question just say so on this th…

    Amusing Memories of High School High school is a weird stage of life-where you meet with every kind of people (and they are mostly TEEN as well :P ) and stuck with them for hours and hours. You get many friends there,and a lot of people who dislikes you,whom you cannot avoid easily like you are at college.What is left from this journey is a bunch of memories.I am just graduated in June this year,and i dont think i will have that much amusing memories at college,or will have fun as much as i had in high school. I dont think there will be another time in my life that people will be so comfortable with me.We were all teens locked into a building,and that produces the mos…

    (If you have no idea what I'm talking about: go read this thread and then this thread.) Banned Books Week is coming up (starts on September 24) and the Brown Ajah will be hosting a BBW event. One of the activities will be a book discussion, and the book that got the most votes is... The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. The Handmaid's Tale is number 88 on the Top 100 Banned/Challenged Books: 2000-2009 list and number 37 on the 100 most frequently challenged books: 1990–1999 list. From Wikipedia: The Handmaid's Tale is a dystopian novel, a work of science fiction or speculative fiction, written by Canadian author Margaret Atwood and first publishe…

    Naked-Frog and I will be running this thread jointly. Back in high school, we all dealt with some sort of jokester. Some of them were actually funny, some of them were kind of lame. Some of them had some great pranks they pulled on others, or on the whole school. Does anyone have any special memories of their clowns, or their own clowning if you were one yourself? What kind of pranks happened? One of the goofiest things that went on in my school was the time someone (I never learned who) took a toilet seat, painted it bronze, and hung it over the lounge door, horseshoe style.

    Welcome to the Red Ajah’s Back to School Week class memories discussion! We all had favorite and least favorite subjects in school. With the four big subjects being Literature, Science, History, and Mathematics, I will lead us in a discussion of each and encourage you all to share any memories (funny, serious, educational, anything!) you have from these classes. And, at the end of the week, round off the discussion in which one of these classes were your favorite and least favorite. Day One: Literature, Writing, and Language Arts Here are a few fun facts about various topics in the literary world: The news of an original copy of Chaucer’…

  7. So, in the United States, every year schools put out a Yearbook showing all of the faculty/staff from their school that year. Students pose for pictures and are included in the yearbook, and have a chance to buy a year book and get signatures of their friends (and acquaintences). I do not know if other countries do this or not, thus the explaination. Most often, the most memorable/important yearbook is the Senior Year yearbook, the last one of a twelve year education. In some cases, the photos are taken in the summer before school, and students are given the opportunity to choose between a number of different photos to go into the yearbook (Most senior yearbooks…

  8. Banned Books Week is celebrated during the last week of September every year to draw attention to the problem of censorship. This year the BBW takes place between September 24 and October 1. The Brown Ajah will also celebrate the BBW, and one of the activities will be a book discussion based around a book we have chosen. In the list above I have included the books that were mentioned in this thread. I didn't include Harry Potter as the Blue Ajah recently hosted the HP week, His Dark Materials as we have chosen those books to discuss before, And Tango Makes Three as it's a 32 page children's book (but it seems very cute), and Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark as it's a…

  11. Everybody has had that one teacher who you got along great with, and is just a pure legend. But everyone's also had that teacher you you despised more than anything. This thread is dedicated to these two, the best and the worst teachers of your schooldays. So tell us all about your greatest and worst teachers, and share with us some great and not so great moments while in their classes.

    Okay now that I have your attention: 1. Please go to this thread: Poetry Competition finished works 2. Read all the poems 3. Goto the Yellow Ajah Thread and vote on the three polls there. Those poets took alot of time and effort to make those poems and they deserve to have a good showing of people who actually read the poems and are wiling to vote. Just my 2 cents worth!!

    The Car'a'carn enters with the rest of the Aiel. During the time of the Age of Legends you assigned our ancestors with guarding a treasure that you would one day come and take back. We have guarding this treasure and you have failed to come to get it back. We once felt we had failed you, but we now understand we are the ones who were failed by you. We have come because you have no honor and we are here to revenge our ancestors!

    Mascots are an animal, person or object that are meant to bring luck. They are used for a myriad of groups throughout the world. From schools to military units, Mascots 'round the world are there to bring us hope (and a distraction) just when we're ready to give up.. But alas, Mascots of the world have been kidnapped by bored shenanigan-making members of the White Tower, and we're asking for your help to find them! They're stashed away in the posts of White Tower Affiliate's, so be sure to look very closely! RULES and Information: Darn, there's rules! -When you find the mascots, be sure to send me links to every one you found, try to keep it all in the same conversa…

    As many of you have to know by now, our lovely Keeper, Mirsch, is pregnant! She is having a beautiful boy, and some of us in the Crafters at the ACW are working on putting together something for her.

  23. Red walked into the Hall, dressed in her best gown of shimmering blue/green silk, cut modestly and sleeveless; her blue shawl hung pristinely on her shoulders and her eyes glanced over the empty seats where the judges woudl sit. Whispers followed her, but she paid them no mind, wrapped in the One Power she could make out the words clearly, even so her mind was on other more important things than what her peers had to say behind her back. It was no secret that her stance in this trial was on the unpopular side, even those in her own Ajah had counseled her of the so called foolishness for defending such a creature as the less than man that walked beside her. In fact, he …

  27. Hi! I am in need of some advice from our musically talented members. ^-^ This weekend I am supposed to go up on stage and sing the songs from the Peter Pan play while dressed up as the first female actress to play Peter Pan in America, Maude Adams. It’s for a fair and I’m going to pretend to be her all day and answer questions and such. They call it a “Live Character” But here is the thing. I sing in choir but we never use microphones. So I need some tips on how close to get to the mic etc… Whenever I sing karaoke it seems like I get my own voice reverbing back at me and it’s hard to stay on key that way. It really throws me off. Is there anything I can do to avo…
