I was thinking of a cool, interesting title that would impress everyone, but I got stuck, so I'll just go with hello.

I recently found out that these wonderful books have a fan base, I shouldn't be surprised though, they are so good, and I think it would be awesome to be Aes Sedai. Nobody I know read WoT, so I've been all alone with my interest for some time.

Basically, I'm a 14-year old human female, and I hope that you will judge me by how I act and not how many years I've been alive. I live in Sweden, and my own language is therefore swedish. Feel free to tell me if I'm spelling something wrong or using bad grammar, because I want to improve in my writing.
I'm obsessed with reading, and that's why I came across the Wheel of Time books in the first place. I started out reading them in Swedish, after finding New Spring in my school's library, and have read part translated part original since then. Right now I'm in the beginning of Knife of Dreams (original).
I go to school, obviously, and dance and play the trombone in my free time. I read all kinds of fantasy, if it’s well written, and listen to all kinds of music, but I usually prefer older music (the Beatles, Ray Charles etc.).

I’m nearly always interested in talking, so if you read this I’d be happy to get a message.

I suppose I should apply for becoming a Citizen now? However, see you around!

Hello, Andiwyn, and welcome to Tar Valon! :) I promise that we will not judge you for your age. :) I joined when I was 15, and one of the reasons I loved this place so much was because I was judged for my actions, and since I have made many friends here of all ages! Based on this post, you seem pretty mature and I'm sure you'll fit in here just fine. :)

Your English is quite good. Lots of our members here are from Sweden and even more have English as their second language, and we're always willing to help out. :)

Trombone is fun but I'm not very good at it. :laugh: My main instrument is clarinet.

You'll need 25 posts to become a citizen, and you can find all your information in the thread called "How do I become a Citizen?" at the top of this forum. People will be along shortly who can answer questions better than I can.

Hello Myralin Sedai, and thanks for the welcome! That sounds good, because I've failed miserably at making my friends read WoT.

Oh, that's good! It sure makes it a lot more likely I will be able to meet some of you before I can afford flying around to different countries by myself. :)

Yes, I love it, though it's hard singing while playing. I'm trying to teach myself playing guitar and piano for the sake of that. We had some clarinets in the orchestra I play in, but they quit. It seems like a fun instrument too!

I read that thread before, so I've got a fair idea of what I need to do. I just wanted it confirmed. :)

Hi Andiwyn, welcome to Tar Valon! I'd say your English is probably of a higher standard than many native speakers/writers ;) I know my grammar can be somewhat lacking in accuracy at times! I'm in the same boat that I have no RL friends who read Wheel of Time (well, one did but she stopped at book 7 and hasn't picked them up again yet). I was very glad to find this place! What's lovely is that it can start with an interest in the books, but quickly becomes a community you'd stay with because the people are such a family :)

I look forward to seeing you around the site!

Welcome, Andiwyn. :) I'm also on Knife of Dreams.

I love how you specified that you are human...it kind of makes me wonder if some of the others who have not specified that are...something else. :look: :P

I'm sure TV.Net is about 21% feline, Dars. :P

And welcome, Andiwyn! I rather love your name. :D I just spent entirely too long trying to decide pronunciation. :laugh:
