kay_loves_purple Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Hello, I'm new here, let me introduce myself: (I just had to borrow the format given that I usually have no idea whatsoever what to say about myself ) THE BASICS: Name Quote
Bemii Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Welcome to the forum Kay! (Or Andreea?) =) I'm sure you will enjoy yourself here, I'm new too and everyone has been really friendly. Your introduction was so much more interesting than mine haha. B. Quote
kay_loves_purple Posted December 13, 2008 Author Posted December 13, 2008 Kay would be okay (well, Andreea too since it's my given name -- but I'm more used to being Kay online than Andreea) I was really lucky to find the format I used -- else my presentation would have been something like "Hello I'm Kay, I'm a programmer, I love to read and I have a book blog", period. I don't think it can get much worse than that Thank you for your welcome Quote
jewell Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Welcome Kay. I love purple too! Hope you like it here. Quote
Nollaig Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Welcome! I'm new too. And you inspired me to sort out my introduction thread, which was a bit lacking. ^___^ Quote
kay_loves_purple Posted December 13, 2008 Author Posted December 13, 2008 Such a warm welcome, thank you all so much! Nici76, is that your cat? It's lovely! Quote
Nici Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Nici76, is that your cat? It's lovely! Yep Her name is Fifi and she is 3 years old. The photo was taken off her last Christmas! She is the cutest little thing! Quote
kay_loves_purple Posted December 13, 2008 Author Posted December 13, 2008 Both she and her name are SO cute (not to mention her little Santa outfit) Quote
Nici Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 Lol thank you! I'll be sure to tell her! Quote
kay_loves_purple Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 Thanks! I know I keep saying "thanks" over and over again, but you have all been so nice, taking the time to welcome me, the least I could do is thank you Quote
Chimera Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Hello and welcome Kay! I'm currently in the middle of a 13000 pieces one and have been so for almost a year now wow, where do you keep that one spread out?! So much patience is beyond my grasp *laughs* Quote
kay_loves_purple Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 I have no idea where I'm going to keep it when it will be done (it's supposed to be approximately 3 meters wide). Right now it's quite okay as I only have less than one third done so it fits on the floor of one of the rooms (click here to see a pic if you want only be warned it's a part of the Sistine Chapel's ceiling so it's not entirely decent ) As for the patience, I sort of gave it up when reaching a huge white part so I might not be that patient after all Quote
Chimera Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Very impressive! And I can definitely see how that big white bit would seem discouraging Quote
kay_loves_purple Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 Yep, and keep in mind we're talking about thousands of (almost) pure white pieces, all looking (almost) precisely the same. Such joy, such thrill Quote
Nollaig Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 I wish I had your patience. I adore jigsaw puzzles, but I never have such patience with them!! Quote
kay_loves_purple Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 I wish I had enough patience to finish this huge thing too (I'm very fond of jigsaw puzzles, the way the picture appears a bit more with every piece added, and the way a single piece seems meaningless but it gets a meaning once it joins its neighbours, but all those white pieces do discourage me) I'm planning to resume working on it this month, fingers crossed Quote
