Salve!
Mar 24th, 2005 at 10:15pm
 
No, not 'salve' as in something you put on a sore, but 'salve' as in the Latin greeting (pronounced sall-way)! I'm a Latin/Mythology lover (wouldn't say nerd... cause I don't know too much... but what I do know, I love!) and obviously a long hair lover!  I stumbled upon this site by total accident... don't remember what I was doing a search for, but I'm glad I did it!  The advice is great and I'm dying to get my hands on some LongLocks hairsticks.

Salve tibi quoque!  Quantum Gaudium est ut alteram doctam Lingua Latina hic invenerim?  Diem meam perfecisti.* Wink

*cough* er, yes, from one confirmed Latin nerd to another, hail and well met Smiley  It's the perfect field for long haired ladies, no?  Lots of neat hair ideas on all those statues... to say nothing of Deborah Kerr in Quo Vadis.  Are you just starting, or been doing the language for a while?



*(helpful translation = hi to you too!  How cool is it to find another Latin speaker here?  You've totally made my day.)

Cheesy Yay! novus amici! Sorry it took me so long to reply... I've been busy and lazy simultaneosly lately  Roll Eyes Yes, Latin is definitely the language for the long-haired.  I'm taking Latin 3 at my high school, and I'm in our Junior Classical League, which is a blast.  I'm pretty new to the language, but I'm loving it so far--I compete in our JCL competitions in Mottoes, Digital Photography, Play(which I wrote with my best buddy who got me into Latin and who I recently got to join these message boards!), and I entered a story in Creative Writing which I think is judged at Nationals... if you'd like to read my story, which is narrated in English, but has all of the dialoge in Latin, or see my digital photography entries, which are mythology stuff, let me know!  I'm still a total amateur, but I like 'em!  Our annual Roman Banquet is coming up, where we serve Roman-ish dishes and entertain the community with acting as if we were gods and goddesses or whatever the theme calls for.  This year we're doing the wedding reception of Cupid and Psyche... I get to play Juno in the banquet, and I play Psyche in the play I co-wrote.  The play is a sort of modern-day comical rendition of what the gods would do on the Newlywed Game. Tongue
Anyways, to everyone who welcomed me- Gratias tibi ago! ( Wink Thanks)

JCL!  I was our chapter's secretary my senior year of High School, almost made the All-Virginia Certamen team.  The guy who's now my fiancee was in it too, we collaborated on the video competition, and he made his own Roman armour.  My big thing was the dramatic interp, and the at-sight reading competitions.  Ah, fond memories of my Andromeda costume, complete with fake blood and a severed tentacle...

It's all coming in really handy now, since a lot of college curricula focus on the language at the expense of the history/ life/ mythology stuff, so you get to grad school and still don't know handy things, like the fact that the only roman ladies in togas were 'ladies of questionable reputations', and the proper way to cook lark's tongues.  Not to mention the tons of practice you get speaking in Latin and reading in meter.  Definitely stay with it... the memories are SO worth it.

Shocked Heracle! (by Hercules! for those getting confoozed) I want to run for secretary in our little ol' Victoria, Texas Memorial HS and compete in dramatic interp next year!!!  I've never been in dramatic interp- got any tips?  My best friend is way in to costume competitions... in fact, she let me use her Aurora costume for my Cupid and Psyche digital photography entry this year (yeah, I know, like Aurora and Psyche are alike in ANY way)... it was kind of thrown together at the very last second... we had been practicing our play for State competition, and before we knew it, we were calling my oh-so-sweet-and-tolerant boyfriend, slapping a random tunica on him, and snapping some crazy shots in her room... It didn't really turn as great as I would've liked, and I kinda... used an artistic license... but here it is, the sixth place winner at state (phoo, I got second last year) http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/17058006/ ; My second place winner from last year, "Sister goddesses" is on that site, too...  Anyway, it's awesome to meet a former JCLer- I've got to introduce you to my friend, her name for these message boards is Aurorawolf, but I don't think she's posted anything yet... Maybe we three can get a Classical conversation going in the non-hair-related section! Grin

Ecastor!  I love the picture - it looks just great!  Almost like a painting, very artsy.

Dramatic interp...  well, it kinda depends on the judges.  Some of them go in for the hyper-dramatic overinterpretation thing, others go in for the more natural style...  Either way, lots of practice reading meter without losing the natural stress accent will never go awry, and they seem to be really big on not locking your knees, but moving about the 'stage'.

When I did the video, Rob and I drafted my younger brother's soccer friends as actors, luring them with the promise of nachos con queso and dressing them up in bedsheets and t-shirts.  In retrospect, I don't know how I managed to convince a bunch of popular teenage guys to participate in my nerdy Latin movie...  Perhaps the omens were favorable Smiley

You know, the costume competitions give some interesting opportunities for simulating ancient hairstyles.  I had some small sucess with those funky archaic greek barrel curls held with a diadem, and I think somewhere I saw a collection of hairsticks found at Troy...  who knew?
