England, yep England. I actually live about an hour outside London. To the North. Has anyone heard of Hitchin? Well its a town near there. And it was also the first New Town to be built after WW2. Its pretty normal, nothing special. But the Queen visited last week to open our new collage, so that was quite special. My mum comes from Trinidad, does anyone know where that is? And I have lived there for a while.

I woke up to discover it had snowed a tid overnight. When I left for school it was raining. In my 8th period class I looked out the window and discovered it was hailing and snowing quite hard. Later in the early evening the wind picked up and it began to thunder and rain. An hour later, I swear I saw sunlight before it clouded up and began raining again. And if that's not weird enough, the temperature in Boise was in the 70s on Monday, while yesterday's high was only 44 degrees (F)! Still, I guess this weather shouldn't be too surprising considering it was raining in December (it was supposed to snow). Boise sure is a confusing place to live. [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

7. Well unless you run...I wish there were more BDers here though, because you (Maya)aren't addicted to LotR, only to the BDs. I think. Weird but true, huh?

Canada all the way!!!
You know I heard a rumor that bc in canada was almost used for the filming of LOTR. Because we have such beautiful forests here. Just to let everyone know that doesn't, I don't live in an igloo, eat raw meat(sushi, ewww) or live in my parka. Actually, where I live, it rains all the time. We got like one snow fall this year. It's raining right now.

I don't normally tell people were I'm from but, hey, it's OK! I'm from South Africa, but I've got a lot of British and Italian blood in me. Mind you, it's very beautiful were I live. They're lots of mountains, forests, nature reserves etc. And animals like small buck and rock rabbits and porcupines etc. We even have a huge nature park called teh Kruger National Park. It's even bigger than the whole of the UK! But, unfortuantly my country isn't so much like Middle-earth! There's lots of shrubbery here called Fine Bush (as we call it). It's dry and hardy........Why am I talking about the flora and fauna of my country? LOL.

Yea, it is cool, isn't it. Did you know Tolkien got his inspiration for The Hobbit in a place in South Africa called Hogsback?I've been there. It's very lush and green and beautiful.

Hmm... No Bostonians here. Oh well. Is anyone going to be at Cape Cod around the months of July and August? If there are any of you BDers that will be, I'll be very happy!
If you will be at cape cod, then tell me where. I'll be in Dennis Port. If any of you will be there please tell me! Maybe you can come to my beach sometime! And Galadrieloftheolden(Izzy) is going to be there some of the time too.
