Good morning - in Russian. I've already posted a good 50something times in this lovely forum, but never really introduced myself...late to that party, I am. But yes...I am Raechel, or Rae, or whatever you want to call me - as long as it's nice. I'm 19, and I've read "Resistance" and "Half-Blood" both of which I adored! Though "Half-Blood" was sad... Hobbies for me include writing, reading (of course!), knife/tomahawk-throwing (hence my username - bladespinnerRae), and more, but those are my core-hobbies. I want to learn sword-fighting very badly - I almost had the chance a couple years ago, but the class cancled because there wasn't enough interest. I am terrible at writing introductions, so mayhaps I'll just depart now... Thanks for this lovely forum, Jaye! I'm enjoying it immensely!

Welcome!!! I seriously want to learn knife and tomahawk throwing. Especially tomahawk throwing since that's always a big deal at the buckskinner rendezvous I participate in.

Hello, Rae! Are you learning Russian?

FairyTaleArista: thanks! Yes, knives ARE always awesome. Always. @ladyjaye: Oh yes, you should!! Tomahawk throwing is actually quite simple - a bit easier than knife-throwing at least. We have a rendezvous thing around here too that does the tomahawk throwing, but I've never tried it...I always get too shy. XD Athelas: Hello to you too! And in answer to your question: Dah, nimnoga. (Yes, a little). But it's sooo slow going. I'm just teaching myself, and haven't had a lot of time recently. But it's a wish of mine to learn it well. Do you know Russian?

Thank you for translating. No, I'm not, but my dad has a very strong interest in Russia and all things Russian. For awhile, about half of the little ones in my family were doing a Russian-learning program, and so I picked up a few words. I'm actually learning Chinese.

Welcome Rae! Whoa, Russian?! Cool. I'm trying to learn Spanish, but I'm thinking about switching studying methods and learning more languages at once.

Athelas : Ah, ok. That's cool! I'm very interested in all things Russian, too. I hope to go there someday. We'll see. That's neat that you're learning Chinese - good blessings on that!! dragongirlwriter : Really? That sounds interesting. I hope Spanish goes well for you too hannahmr14 : I don't know the title of mine...it's old; I get it from the library and it includes two 2-sided tapes and a little booklet. I am quite sure I am the only person that has ever checked it out from our library...
