Mirsha Member	posted 03-13-2009 05:26 AM Hi everyone, I've just realised I've never actually posted in this thread (sorry) so i thought I'd better do it now. I'm Anna (or Mirsha, whichever you prefer) and I'm from Nottinghamshire, in the UK. I'm an actor/student, and I love performing, writing, reading, socialising, music...the list is pretty much endless. I'm here because I think Gregory Maguire is a great writer (I am in love with the Wicked series)and I thought it would be nice to speak with some fellow fans. IP: Logged
lostladyknight Moderator	posted 03-13-2009 06:38 AM I'm all the way in the US so I'm not all that familliar with the Southhampton area. But my friend is in the law program. I know about most of the clubs and stuff she frequents but I'm sure you'll forgive me for not posting about them as I'm sure she wouldn't appreciate that. But I've been planning to go out there the end of this summer hopefully so i'll know a lot more about the area then! ------------------ IP: Logged
bug187 Member	posted 03-13-2009 10:19 AM Thats cool! Its not a bad city. There are some OK clubs. I generally go to The Rhino, The Hobbit and the Dungeon, don't know if they've been mentioned to you. I doubt it though lol. IP: Logged
Plant a Note Moderator	posted 03-13-2009 10:46 AM It's really great to see how much more international this board has gone. For the longest time it felt like munchkin was the only one, that is after Acey and KoQ left. So welcome everyone! ------------------ IP: Logged

LaszloA2 Junior Member	posted 06-05-2009 11:09 AM Greetings. I am Laszlo from Ann Arbor, Michigan. I am 41. I have been visiting for several months (since I just read the book - twice, in the past few months). You have some very interesting discussions posted that have helped me with my interpretation of Mr. Maquire's work. My daughter read the book first (she is now 20). My son (16) has not read it yet. I intended to read this simultaneously with my wife so we could discuss it together, but alas, that has not proven to be possible - so I am pleased to have found this board to read all of your opinions. ------------------ Cheers All!!

ArmlessNessa Member	posted 06-12-2009 11:04 PM Hi, my name is Zobeida, but I'm mainly known as Zoe. I'm 12 years old and love reading, music(play the violin) and just got accepted into m.s. drama! So, yeah I'm (is there a synonym for I am?) much happier than usual. I have completely fallen in love with the Wicked Years seres, they are my all-time favorite books. Weird to think that I only discovered them a few months ago... Oh, and I was just wondering if anyone knows a good solution for lockjaw. I have a bad case now and it is really starting to get on my nerves. ------------------ "He had every intention to die, and music had forbidden it."

LolaFabala Junior Member	posted 08-23-2009 10:34 PM Um, hi I'm Lola. I've been a huge fan of Wicked for about a year (I'm seeing it again in a few months, and have read the book countless times.)I'm new here as you can tell, and I haven't ever used a forum so I'm getting a hold of it. I like acting, reading, and singing (which I'm not very good at. Haha) IP: Logged
ArmlessNessa Member	posted 08-24-2009 12:56 PM welcome, welcome, Lola! it's great to have you on the boards! ------------------ Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend; inside of a dog, it's too dark to read. IP: Logged
LolaFabala Junior Member	posted 08-24-2009 03:49 PM Thank you Nessa I'm sorry if I annoy people, because my internet is being funky lately and double posts my stuff sometimes. I've been trying to fix it. IP: Logged

Blue Diamonds Green Field Junior Member	posted 09-30-2009 09:28 PM Hi i'm amanda, I'm from Australia but living in New York for the rest of the year. I just finished Wicked and Son of a Witch in the last 2 or 3 weeks and started A Lion Among Men 2 nights ago! I saw the musical 2 weeks ago as well. Needless to say, love them all! Am so excited to have people to talk to about the books - none of my friends have read them! IP: Logged
WitchBoy06 Member	posted 10-31-2009 10:15 AM Im crazy Capricorn. Don't believe it? Well I had a dream last night of Wicked that was all the proof you'd need: Elphaba was flying at a good speed on her broom with me clinging on with all my might behind her. When we were passing over the EC I said "Here?" and she says "Not here." When we reached the forest she said "Not here, either." And when we passed over Dorothy on the yellow brick road, she says "Definitely not here!" Finally we landed in a glade or meadow with a well. She looked in the well for a long time, and when she looked back up, she was smiling. That smile scared the crapola out of me! I woke up after that. So yeah, that's all my crazy in a bottle. Enjoy! ------------------ Give me room to cast my eel spear and let follow what may. [This message has been edited by WitchBoy06 (edited 10-31-2009).] IP: Logged
Scalpel_Slut95 Junior Member	posted 11-12-2009 03:47 PM Hey, I'm Allora, people generally call me Ally though, and I'm 13, I've been a Wicked fan ever since I saw a commercial for the tour, and looked it up online. The GM books I've read are Wicked, SOAW, Mirror Mirror, and Confessions. Right now though I have a major obsession with REPO! the Genetic Opera... So if I say something that seems really, really wierd it probably has something to do with REPO! IP: Logged

nessaheart Member	posted 11-13-2009 03:16 PM Welcome Amanda and Lillian! Even though you two were a while ago, sorry. And Ally! Welcome! (I am in a mood for exclamation points today... can you tell?) I've heard the music from REPO! is really good, but I've never seen it myself. I should go find it. ------------------ IP: Logged

Rachmeister Junior Member	posted 12-04-2009 06:35 AM Hi I'm new and thought I'd come on here since I saw that it was mentioned in the Mods' rules. Edit: Maybe I should say more about myself , sorry. I'm 18 and I'm from Scotland. And I can't believe I've just found this place. [This message has been edited by Rachmeister (edited 12-04-2009).] IP: Logged

Idina is my idol Junior Member	posted 12-20-2009 05:41 PM Hey guys! Wow I havn't been on in forever, and I really missed the community and family feel of these boards. I don't know if that sounded really cheezy and stupid, but it's true. I am the only drama geek and lover of books in my group of friends, so sometimes it's really hard to connect. I just like reading the conversations and loving how at ease everyone here is with each other. I don't really know any of you that well, but I would like to. Another thing about me, I apologise profusely about anything that I feel sorry about. So sorry if this has nothing to do with the dialogue right now. lol I'm just kindo of random like that. Hope you all are having a great Christmas Holiday, or Hannikah, or Kwanzaa. ------------------ The Artichoke Is Steamed!!!! IP: Logged
Idina is my idol Junior Member	posted 12-20-2009 06:34 PM I just noticed I havn't properly introduced myself. I'm Hannah Im a sophomore and about to turn 16 on the birthday of Abraham Lincoln. I am a complete drama geek and love Rent and Wicked. My favorite color is green and if you havn't gotten it yet, Idina Menzel is my idol. I have this weird obsession with fanfiction, i guess it's because I love to read. i just finished reading Son of a Witch. It was interesting to say the least. I also just finished Without You for the second time. I am a Harry Potter fan and my friends and I make fun of Twilight. If I had to choose I would choose werewolves, but I hate Jacob. I love Christmas. I recently got to see Rent in Chicago with Anthony and Adam in it. I think that High School Musical 3 is cheesetastic. I also am a huge fan of Newsies. Yeah I am pretty much rambling about myself. Those are the basics. Hope you all are having a good holiday. ------------------ The Artichoke Is Steamed!!!! IP: Logged
Galinda with a ga Junior Member	posted 01-03-2010 07:13 PM Hey, I'm Roisin! I'm 13, almost 14 and I live in Australia. I first read Wicked early November 2009 and I first saw the musical ] on the 26th December, 2009. I also saw the musical again yesterday (4/1/2010), as I won the Wicked lottery. And I'm obsessed with Wicked (book and musical). I also like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Torchwood and Sarah-Jane Adventures (anything DW related, really). I love music, and I sing pretty much all the time. IP: Logged
