| Name: | Lioness of Ravenclaw |
|---|
If you hang around me long enough, you will soon discover that my mind is based purely in the theoretical.
I am an aspiring Archaeologist with a keen (read: obsessive) interest in the Near East, Egypt, and the Classical World. After much more education and tuition bills than I have currently accumulated, I hope to work in a museum or university studying the remnants of our past. I’m far more interested in art history theories than the cold, hard facts of archaic economies, social structures and the like.
When I’m not studying, reading or writing about things which happened too long ago for most people to care, I study, read and write about things which never happened at all. My particular interests in this hypothetical domain revolve around fantasy literature – Harry Potter (Remus Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks), Lord of the Rings, The Chronicles of Narnia, Artemis Fowl. My family has also gotten me hooked on the TV shows CSI and Numb3rs, which deal with far more fact than I’m used to, but no less interesting when it comes to characters interactions.
I had some difficulties deciding which Hogwarts house the Sorting Hat would put me in, so I just combined them into the Lioness of Ravenclaw (or a shortened variety thereof to accommodate character limitations). You can also find me on FanFiction.net with the same name.
Please feel free to friend me. I’d love to see what others are thinking and writing about – theoretically, of course!
I have known many graduates of Bryn Mawr. They are all of the same mold. They have accepted the same bright challenge: something is lost that has not been found, something’s at stake that has not been won, something is started that has not been finished, something is dimly felt that has not been fully realized. They carry the distinguishing mark – the mark that separates them from other educated and superior women: the incredible vigor, the subtlety of mind, the warmth of spirit, the aspiration, the fidelity to past and to present. As they grow in years they grow in light. As their hearts expand, their deeds become more formidable, their connections more significant, their husbands more startled and delighted. I once held a live humming bird in my hand. I once married a Bryn Mawr girl. To a large extent they are twin experiences. Sometimes I feel as though I were a diver who had ventured a little beyond the limits of safe travel under the sea and had entered a strange zone where one is said to enjoy the rapture of the deep. – E. B. White
