Week 1 Reports

[Ven]

Once you have had your character for a week, this is the place where you will tell us what you did with your character.

The following is an example of a report that you may give.

Adopted=Pippin

Day 1-December 20th-- Pippin just got here! I'm so excited!! I'm really hoping to get to know him better! *later* Oh, goodness, is there no end to this hobbit's stomach!? I've cooked for 5 hours straight!! Oh, well, at least tomorrow may be different.

Day 2-December 21st-- Thankfully, Pippin's stomach is now full, so we may have the chance of going somewhere today. He says he wants to see if there are any pubs nearby. I told him that I am underage and I don't have any interest in going into one of those. He said he understands. (Sure, Pip, sure.) I'm taking him to a Pizza Hut later, maybe that'll be good for him, they do have awsome pizza!

Day 3-December 22nd-- Oh, No!! Pippin's got heart-burn from the pizza!! I didn't think it was spicy at all, but he insisted that it was the hottest thing he had ever eaten! *cries* My poor Pippin!!!

Day 4-December 23rd-- I'm still waiting for Pippin to get out of bed...he's been there since his heart-burn started...I had him take some medicine, but he says that he'd rather stay in bed, just in case...*hours later* Yay!! Pippin has gotten out of bed!! Well, actually, it kinda figures...he was hungry...oh, well. We had some pot roast for dinner, which was really good considering I made it.

Day 5-December 24th-- Pippin told me today that I was one of the best cooks that he has meet after I made him french toast. At least he was polite about it!! I'm planning to take him Christmas shopping today, though it's kinda stupid to take him anywhere the day before Christmas. *later* He got me a new frying pan!!! *huggles Pippin* (Ad I wonder why? ) *happy tears* Noone has ever gotten me a frying pan before!

Day 6-December 25th-- Christmas day, and everything is going very well! Pippin is really happy with all the gifts that I got him. (Food, food, and wait! More food!) Overall, very good day!

Day 7-December 26-- I feel so sad!! I have to say bye to Pippin!!! *huggles Pippin and doesn't let go till someone offers him food*


(That was just a sample, please try to make yours better than mine Mine was awful )

You do not have to post until Day 7. Remember, all you are doing is making up something you may have done with that character in real life if he/she was real. It isn't too hard, it just takes a bit of thought.

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or post in the "What is This? Adoptions?" thread.

[Ven]

[LilPippin]

Okay I putting this up now since I do not think that I will have time later and Ven didn''t answer me about whether to put it up today or tomorrow. Hopefully this is alright

I had Glorfindel.

Day 1: 28th of December(this was when he got them)
Glorfy and I settled in. We set up a bed for him in my room. There are many books adn he enjoyed taking a look at them. He was amazed at the CD player and automatically it was his favorite thing in the house(even more than the TV). I had to go over a friend's house to work on a school project and Glorfy came along. We went to see a movie afterward and Glorfy got a little motion sickness from the big screen. When we got home, I made some tea for him to calm his head down and I showed him some of my favorite TV shows.

Day 2-29th of Dec.
I had to get up in the morning for ice-skating all day until about six. While there I went to Ledo's. Glorfy tried some of my spaghetti and he liked it alot. After that I went to Ven's and visited her and Legolas. We watched the LotR-RotK EE and the end of Van Helsing. Legolas and Glorfy played cards and chess, Glorfy won the chess... I never asked you won the card game.

Day 3-30th
Was still at Ven's in the morning (slept over) we continued to watch LotR-RotK-EE while Ven's mom made eggs, bacon, and we chowed on M and M s.
When I got home I found a spaghetti recipe for Glor to take home.

Day 4- 31st
We went ice-skating with all my friends. Legolas and Ven were both there. It was a lot of fun and Glor picked it up pretty quickly. He was a very graceful skater. After skating we all went to Pizza Hut where Glor was blessed with the introduction of Pizza. He got really hyper off the Root Beer(something I do as well) and he enjoyed the pizza... a lot. We had to buy a whole nother pizza because we had no idea where all the pizza was going... I knew however and Glor knew too...
After that we watched the 3rd Harry Potter, where only me and Glor were awake at 12.

Day 5 1st of Jan.

On this day Glor taught me how to stay in control and calm down in certain situations. HE pretended to be a mean person form government that attacked my grading values while I kept my "cool" and spoke like I was undeterred. It worked when Glor was there... because he's just so darn *whispers* HOT! But I still feel uncomfortable around people that do this. I will of course keep in mind what he told me to do. I also was on the computer reading fanfiction. Glor read some before he feel asleep from boredom. I covered him up. He woke a bit later. Then he got into IM-ing my friends.

Day 6-2nd of Jan.
I had to go over my friend's house again today because we still were working on out project. Glor was very cooperative nad brought along my CD player. He was dancing. It was quite entertaining. I again went on the computer. I introduced Glor to ice cream while I was on IM... it got him really hyper and he began singing to my N*Sync CD which I rarely listen to. He tried to put in B. Spears, but I got rid of the CD beofre he could put it in.

Day 7- 3rd of Jan.
I had to go back to school today. Glor went with me and was surfing on the top of my mom's car. He followed me around to all my classes and agrees with me that Fresh Sem in the most useless class ever. I had viola lesson's after school. Glor went next door to the coffee place and then headed ot the library. He said he had fun learning about the American culture through coffee places nad libraries. He said that 1) Americans are NOT quiet and 2) They REALLY like coffee.
Went on Computer and read fanfiction. Glor watched PotC and I joined him.

Day 8- 4th
Had to say good-bye. He went with me to school and helped me stay focused when my mind wandered... I had a fanfic idea in my head all day. He made my lunch for me. When we got home, he started packing his stuff and he left his brooch for me to keep in remembrance of him. I gave him one of my stuffed animals and a picture that my mom had taken of the two if us. He kept it. I wish I still had it. Hopefully we will see each other again and he will be able to send me a copy of the picture. There were a lot of tears because we both had a great time this week. I also hid in his pack a recipe for Pizza. he liked the pizza.... a lot.

I had Legolas

Day 1: December 28th--- I finally got to meet Legolas for the first time! It was so cool! He came up to me and said, "Is this the house of Ven?" And get this, In ELVISH!!! ;D Hehe, and I said, "Tancave!" (Elvish for yes, I believe). GO ME!! I actually remembered something!! For the next hour or so, he kept on stairing(sp) at my hair. It's RED for crying out loud! What's so different about RED?! Must be an elf thing, lol. Well, after about an hour of that (), he finally convinced me that he wanted to sleep in a tree for the night. So, I pointed him out to the tree that I like climbing in my backyard.

Day 2: December 29th--- LOL!! He came inside this morning complaining about backaches!! ;D I told him that sleeping with your back in an awkward possition will give him pain! But, no, he had to sleep there. Ah, well, what can you do? So, I gave him some asprine after a few hours of telling him that medicine will help his back pains. That was painful...Later that day, we played a peaceful game of chess, and guess what!! I won!! ;D Well, the first game that is, he won the next 2...lol. Then LilPip came over that night with Glorfi. We watched a few movies, *see her post for what the Elves did* *I feel lazy*. They both agreed that they would sleep inside tonight. Thank Goodness!!

Day 3: December 30th--- LilPippin and Glorfi are still over, but the funny thing is, the elves are at it again! The card game that is. Pip and I never did get to asking them who actually won those...I'm really guessing that Leggy won, though I'm not quite sure why. Later, Glorfi calls Leggy and says that he has just gotten a recipe for spaghetti, making him be the next in line in favor of Elrond, for he is sick of Lembas. Legolas begged me for a recipe, so I gave him the recipe for Apple Pie. ;D Yumm! Ya, he was really excited about that, though, I'm not sure if he knows exactally *how* to cook

Day 4: December 31st--- Like, LilPip, I went ice-skating too, but I went with Legolas, who, well, let's just say that he wasn't as graceful as Glorfindel..."Watch out for that---nevermind, NO! Watch out for----sorry!! *picks up poor little girl who got ran into* *looks up* AH!!!" *big bruse is now on head* ...ya......thankfully, he took an hour break before we took off to Pizza Hut, where both elves were introduced to the wonders of pizza.

Day 5: January 1st--- Awww, poor Legolas! He's never stayed up till midnight before during New Year's Eve, though, yes, they do have, I think, Mid-Yule's eve (?). He was sleeping till 2PM that day, and then he woke up with a stomach ache. "Legolas, what did you have to eat yesterday?" "Uhh, well, *thinks* I think it was 3 pizzas." "What?!" "Well, my dad always told me to finish my plate, and I did!! I did!! It's just I had the entire platter, not the plate..." *gives Legolas medicine again*

Day 6: January 2nd--- Legolas actually went into my room today for the first time. He was actually quite hypnotized by the many LotR posters I have. Funny Thing: Leggy jumps onto my bed (making it really squeek) and looks at a poster that has a certain someone on it (Not me). He says, "Oh, no!!!! MY hair looks soooo bad in that picture!!!!! AH!!!!" (The poster was a little collage of him.) So he spent the rest of the day learning how to type, I gave him the lessons, and then he said that he wanted to send a letter to the person who did that poster of him. Me, being the quick thinker, changed the subject. Didn't work too well, but I got him to get his mind off of that and onto our site here. He said that he really loves the fanfic that LilPip wrote. lol

Day 7: January 3rd--- Well, today is a sad day for both of us; We have to say goodbye. I gave Legolas a few more good recipies that I found floating around the house. He gave me a mini-mirror that he used when he was smaller (Me being the height that he was when he was younger). It's actually quite nice. It's got this green vine design along the sides and the handle is made of gold (well, atleast, gold-platted). Overall, I think he had a good time, I certainly did

(And this further proves that I cannot spell worth smilies )

[Rev]

<*growls in Black Speech* Once again I'm late...internet was out for a while..Sorry about the delay>

I had: Elladan and Elrohir...the ""3/16ths mortal, 25/32nds Elf, and 1/32 Maia"" people. (hey-can't say half-elf since I don't want to annoy LilPip. *grins* )


Day one: Elladan and Elrohir arrived at my house bright and *early* this morning. (I guess they hadn’t been properly told about the time difference!) Seeing as how I was still asleep, they apparently decided that it would be fun to wake me up…with the aid of a sopping wet rag! Needless to say, I was soaked and the two laughed hysterically. It took some time getting all that water out of my bed! Nevertheless, to be fair I made them help clean up. Well—after that… messy….scenario, the day progressed rather smoothly. The twins seemed to enjoy getting a tour of my house and neighborhood, marveling at how *different* everything looked from their own home, and wondering how on earth we humans could possibly be used to it. I think they were a bit surprised to see my bedroom in the daylight though…for as Elladan said, “It looks like something right out of Rivendell.”

Day two: The twins found my LotR figure collection today, and were going through them, commenting on the people they recognized, and laughing at some of the representations. They were both quite miffed that there were not figures for themselves and wanted to know why they had been overlooked. It was then that I had to explain about the movies, and that since they weren’t in the movies they weren’t a figure either. This prompted a discussion of PJ’s trilogy, and ultimately we ended up sitting down and watching the first EE.

Day three: Today, Elladan and Elrohir had their first experience with a computer. They concept of communication through punching buttons and clicking was quite new and different. For some reason they insisted that it must be similar to the telepathic powers that Galadriel and Elrond possess, and were fascinated with all this new “telepathy” could do. Later, we went out to Outback for dinner—Elladan seemed to enjoy the steak he ordered, but Elrohir wasn’t so stuck on it.

Day four: Today we watched the other two EE’s: TTT and RotK. That night they stayed up until midnight with me and my family, for New Years. While there wasn’t any champagne, Sparkling Grape Juice sufficed quite nicely, with the result that there were two hyper elves at my house! We stepped outside to watch the fireworks display at the mall by my house, then went in, where we spent most of the night talking, laughing, and *trying* not to wake anyone else up!

Day five: Everyone slept in today, since we had all been up so late the night before. Once they finally got up, Elladan and Elrohir got to try French toast for breakfast—something they absolutely loved! That afternoon, I went over to my friend’s house to hang out. She lives on a farm, and has horses. Almost the first thing they wanted to do was race around the property. After obtaining my friend’s consent, the race began. Three times around, and back to the stable. Even now I can’t say who really won—they came in so close that it was hard to tell one from the other. But they seemed to enjoy it so I didn’t try to take sides. ; )

Day six: Today, the twins discovered the karaoke machine. After learning its use, they promptly gave my entire family an impromptu concert! *whispers * I don’t think either one of them really caught any of the lyrics on our karaoke songs...but they would certainly get an A for effort! They also sang some elven songs which were quite fun to listen to.

Day seven: Today we had to say goodbye. : ( They came to school with me, and watched my various classes, but fell asleep in the back corner of History class. Which I really don’t blame them for!! After we got home, they gathered their belongings together, and after exchanging parting gifts, it was time to say farewell. I think that Elladan and Elrohir had a really fun time—they sure seemed to anyways!
