Own Clothes Day

[Andúnë]

Talk about the excitement of Own Clothes Day here!

I thought the costumes were amazing - especially Tinor's Legolas and Becky's Rohirric banner. But generally breathtaking to everyone.

I heard two small people as Eowyn and I swept past: "Wowww..." said one. "They're the Tolkien Society!" whispered another. Heehee...

There is a page up on the website, with all the pictures I managed to take. There were also two extremely cool videos (one of which you get to see Tinor's legs dancing in the background) but they were too large to upload.

I'm sending one of our pictures (the one of us all together in the Hall) to TORn, so hopefully we'll see us there soon!

Eeeeeeeeeeee!!!
Have still not got over the excitement of it all, am still wearing my beard, it's ten o'clock at night and I want my bed! But still...Rny and I got some fairly odd looks too...we have to press a sort of intercom thing to get into the place where we do drama and we said,

"King and Steward of Gondor seek shelter from slight downpour on way to Mordor."
We can only be thankful it was someone with a sense of humour.

I think I got the most derogatory comments from the Grammar school, but then again that was really my own fault. Funny, though.
"That girl's got a beard?"
"Have I? Oh my God, I forgot to shave this morning!"
I didn't say that, but I should have.


Ooooh wow, pictures! (Sorry, only just noticed that bit) Must go and look now....

Piccies where where OOOOH! YAAAAAY!

Hahahaha...

There were also two extremely cool videos (one of which you get to see Tinor's legs dancing in the background) but they were too large to upload.

Sorry but my first though was "my legs were too large to upload!?"

Daaaamn, as a moderator i should have though up this thread *is ashamed*

I didn't get any derogatory comments, except some girls in the PE changing rooms shouted LEGOLAS and then turned away giggling when I turned to look. Ooh and in the cinema a grammar school boy ran up behind me and threw my hood over my face so I couldn't see and I nearly tripped up the stairs....

Apart from that they were positive comments, smiles, worred glances...

I also think that Lei's and Lucia's outfits were AMAZING, you guys must have spent ages they were really effective!! I loved that purple material Lei used it was soooo purdy! Hehehe and the use of my skirt and top were very ingeneous!

Don't feel ashamed RastNim! I was absolutely delighted with your costume (and yes, I did fancy you very much!)

Wheee! We have an entry on TORn!!! Have a look on the main page now, or it'll go soon. Here is our page anyway: www.theonering.net/scrapbook/group/1372

Whoo!

[Arrie]

EEEEEEEEEEEE oh my BOB we're on TORn!!!!
How cool are we?

[Esteldil]

OMG OMG OMG breathe! We're on TORn!

I loved it on Friday, it was so cool. i also hated the comments we got from LGS, well, the little 3rd years anyway. Lei and I just glided away (somewhat gracefully) but then had to go back again as Arwen forgot her bag Thankfully, they were all gone!

I thought all your costumes were amazing! Tinor- so unbelievably like Legolas I'm now getting worried.... And the Banner! OMG the Banner was breath-taking!

Arrie deserves a medal (or the throne of Gondor, take your pick) for going down to LGS. You really showed them (wish you had said that now!!) Looks like you'll be well prepared for U6 tableau (went to dinner with a beard and a skirt- interesting looks, I can tell you that!)

I want to do that again some time...

[Arrie]

Aye, the little buggers, I think the best one was the one that came up to Tina and Laura and just went "Woof!"

Hehe, I think I'll go for the throne, I've been waiting long enough for it! I'm looking forward to Upper Sixth...you had a beard? Oh yes, you were one of the kings weren't you? I was doing my reading during the tableau you were in.

[RastNim]

Yes the young dog boys, bizarre, I know it is a bit late but YAY TORn!!!!

[Andúnë]

Tina - reminder - pictures!!!
