![]() Name: TheChocoholicOfAusten Age: 25-35 range Location: Canada Favourite Books: Pride and Prejudice, Persuasion, Mansfield Park, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, Northanger Abbey (Hense my pen Name!), Anything by Ken Follet (especially Key to Rebecca, The Century Trilogy, and Pillars of the Earth and World Without End), Harry Potter, Atonement by Ian McEwan, North and South by Elizabeth Glaskell (Well, anything by her really), Tolstoy, Henry James, Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin, Madame Bovary. Okay well I pretty much just love literature...but I won't bore you. Favourite Movies: Pride and Prejudice (2005 version with Kiera Knightley) I won't get into my reasons because it is a massive description, I know a lot of people did not like this version. Without going into any detail...I just really love the cinematography, acting and style. I KNOW that it moves away from the true story in MANY ways (believe me I would know..I have read PP over a hundred times..I'm NOT exaggerating), however I like to watch movies without dwelling on the novel...if I did that..well I would hardly enjoy any movies at all. (Okay I know I said I wouldn't get into detail...but ya), Beauty and the Beast (Disney), The Mummy (the 1st one...I love the 2nd too..just not as much...but do not get me started on the 3rd...if you could even call it part of the trilogy), I quite literally own every Jane Austen adaptation ever made, with the exception of the few 1950 and 60 versions that no longer exist because of the BBC misplacing them or something. But Ya I AM an Austenaholic. The funniest adaptation would be the 1940 version of PP and the 2003 modern one (very funny). I love them all in different ways. Titanic, Pearl Harbour, The Lord of the Rings, The Fast and the Furious, Ever After, okay I could go on for a while, but I will stop myself here since I covered the ABSOLUTE favourites. Favourite TV: Friends, Buffy, Angel, Doctor Who, LOST, Big Bang Theory, Fringe, Bones, Castle, The Walking Dead, Supernatural, Downton Abbey, Revenge, Once Upon a Time, 2 Broke Girls, The Paradise, Modern Family, New Girl, Grey's Anatomy, Vampire Diaries, Merlin, etcetc. Favourite Colour: Red Favourite Actress: Kate Winslet Favourite Actor: Can't decide. Favourite Artist: Monet Favourite Contemporary Film Composer: Tie between Dario Marionelli and Howard Shore and John Williams. Favourite Classical Composer: Tchaikovsky Favourite Pastime: Reading and playing my piano obsessively. I compose my own music sometimes as well. Favourite Place in the World: PEI Favourite Vacation Spot South of the Border: Cuba...love it there, the people are SO nice. Places I've Travelled: Canada: Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, PEI, New Brunswick USA: Michigan Mexico Cuba Bahamas Europe: England, Scotland, France, Germany, Spain. Africa: Egypt Australasia: Australia, New Zealand Future Travel Goals: Asia, South America, Antarctica. Profession: Music Teacher (elementary) Hobbies: Reading, Piano, Drawing, Painting, Running, Long walks, Scanning bookshelves for something new (or the internet), Cleaning Fact: I love reading people's stories on here...I also write myself..but I rarely post anything as I am too busy and do not enjoy disappointing people by not getting a chapter up. I would rather finish a whole story and post it all at once. Another random fact: I am extremely critical about movies and books (For example: I used to whiteout spelling mistakes in some books and fix them) A lot of people do not like talking to me about movies because I will go on and on about minor details. For example in my all time FAVOURITE movie..as said before 2005 Pride and Prejudice...the part when Elizabeth says "I'm sure that would cheer her up papa" gets me every time I watch it...I just don't like the way she says it...it does not fit into the scene. Okay enough about me...Looking forward to reading more of your awesome stories!! If you actually read this far...I love you with all of my heart...you are my hero. XOXO Ps: If anyone would like me to edit chapters of anything (specifically Jane Austen) I am very paranoid about spelling and grammar and love editing people's work! Just send it to me!! My Poetry: This is a series of poems I wrote in Grade 12. The Title of the Series is called Broken Pieces. Wait For Me Moth eaten clothing, Draped, over wrinkled skin. Tearstained faces grow tired, Old. They Dry up, By faded graves, Waiting, For the dead to come. They do not come, No whispering voices of the past, No silent footsteps of old. The dead will not come, They cannot come. Pale faces, fade away, Vanishing into memories. Forbidden Dreams are not enough, For us. There is no future, In these dreams of ours. Why can you not see, That the demons disallow it, They've built a wall between our love. We cannot break it down. Do not dwell uopn the past, Forget us, Do not remember me. You must not force a love, That simply cannot be. Mother A small girl stands in the rain, Pink dress drenched in mud. No one sees her, She makes no sound. She stands alone watching, Waiting in the rain. The Secret I am not your doll Please do not sew my lips shut I swear I won't tell Broken Pieces, Broken, On the floor. Like shattered glass, On stone. They lay there, Fragile, torn, Forgotten. Who can touch, These broken pieces, And put me back, Together? Find Me Where will you go, When the sun sets, And night falls? When shadows descend, And all fractions of light, Fade away. Where will you go, When the moon will not rise, And dawn sleeps? When you are plunged, Into a world, Of deafening darkness. Where will you go, When you voice, Is a hushed whisper? When no one can hear you, And you are all alone, In the silence. There you can find me, In the darkness, In the silence. Where dawn does not break, And the moon does not rise, I will be there. Hope you liked them, I got a really good mark :) |
