I would like to introduce myself to the group. My name is Melissa and as of now I teach chemistry to high school students. I have enjoyed reading fanfiction for quite a while now, however, my choice of topics has changed from nsync and bsb to harry potter and LOTR. My favorites are angsty hurt/comforts. I do not write fanfiction, however, I have never been much of a writer. My brain seems to run at a much faster rate than fingers can work. Pippin is my favorite character as I identify most with him. I tend to talk to much and get into trouble because I'm not really paying attention or I'm touching things i shouldn't. I'm often viewed as immature and naive but like Pippin, I know I can fix the wrongs I've done and show the world just how worthy I can be.
I, also, adore Josh Groban, the voice and face of an angel but the Josh Groban fanfiction choice are somewhat lacking.

Welcome, marshpup, to the madness that is Open Scrolls. Oh, and since you say as of now when talking about your work, I gather you mean it's a new job? Well, congrats to you and good luck with the new school year about to start if you're in the northern hemisphere.
do.

 Hey and welcome to OSA! Hope you find all the great things we have to offer. There is so much to do here, aside from story reading, that I hope you will get a chance to partake in.
So, if you like trivia try one of Andreth and Mora's quizzes, or if you like silly banter look into some of the general discussion threads. Also, there are book groups and many interesting topics redarding characters, places and writing.
So welcome. Oh and hey, if you enjoy a story or have any comments everyone here really loves hearing from their readers, so don't be shy!

Yodle.

Welcome to OSA.
Seeing as you're a Pippin fan...any chance you're a Billy Boyd fan?? 
(I really have to stop doing this.)

Welcome aboard! I'm DarkElfChilde, but you can call me CK if you want. The more people that talk too much, the better! HA! You teach chemistry eh? Never took that course, but it's a lot safer that I don't anyway, let alone any explosives since I have a tendency of enjoying...stuff.  -coughs and looks around- You didn't hear that from me...

it is very nice to meet you, all. Yes, I just started teaching chemistry, well in just about a week, I will. This is only my second year teacher adn last year I taught physical science which I am ever so happy to not be teaching this year. I will be starting at a new school and meeting so many people I wont be able to remember their names. As for "blowing" anything up, God help me I do hope to avoid by not allowing my students to be near anything that could even possibly cause problems with.
I will try to get involved with as much discussion as possible because, i do enjoy a good chat. I've found that at some of the boards that I posted at you don't get alot of reply unless you're part of the "incrowd" I guess you could say and that's frustrating. I guess, I shuld thank lyou all for being so welcoming.
I wouldn't say that I'm a huge Billy Boyd fan but I don't think he is adorable and even forced myself to watch Master and Commander just for Billy. I must say I have thing for babyfaced guys like Billy and the forementioned Josh Groban (i'm a grobanite and my job is to "spread" the josh). I think I'm drawn to Billy because the traits he shows in the roles I've seen him in.

I know the feeling. 
That movie was terrible, except for the 1/8th of the movie where you actually see Billy.
Ps: Happy Happy Birthday! From All Of Us To You! We Wish It Was Our Birthday So We Could Party To!
Happy 36th Birthday Bill!!!

I actually liked that flick. Thought Paul Bettany and Russell Crowe had their thing going just like in A Beautiful Mind. And Billy was certainly a nice bonus. Anyhoo, to each his own. I still hate Return of the King so...
do.

Welcome! We tend to have lots of fun here. So please join in.
I watched Master and Commander just the other day and was very dissapointed in it. |

it's not that I didn't Master and Commander, I liked Russel Crow and the doctor guy. I heard Russel Crow learned how to play the violin for the movie. I did enjoy Billy though. It's just that it was essentially a war movie but at sea. I think there was a bit too much fight in ROTK too. I tend to go for movies with sappy stuff and period films. Gone with the WInd has to be all time favorite movie but I love things like Sense and Sensiblity and the Wedding planner even though JLo is not my favorite. I'm a huge mush-ball.

For some reason I viewed that movie as a doc. Nothing in it caught my attention. I am not a big fan of Russell. But I thought Boyds in it and I should like it. Just not enough of him in it for me.
I love Maid in Manhatten(sp). Not a JLo fan either but I really liked that movie. |

Actually, marsh is short for marshmallow because when I was in high school I was field hockey goal keeper and my teammates said I looked like statepuff marshmallow man from ghostbusters becasue I had received new things and I was awkard in my new things. pup is because love dogs but I think if were to be a dog my fur would be very white as is my ever so pale skin. i think most people's screennames have interesting stories behind them.
