Hello everybody,

I decided to finally join this wonderful site!
My name is Marieke (it's Dutch), find your own unique way to pronounce it! (or just call me miek, like my dad, he inspired my username!)

I am quite new to the world of anime and manga and haven't read much at all. So if you have suggestions for me, please say so. I'll be happy to give them a try! Thanks in advance!

I like reading (books and manga), being on my laptop, chating with my friends and I like to think my English is much better than my Latin translation skills ;^^

I have no excperience at all, but maybe I'll try to be a typesetter after a lot of practise!

Byebye,
Marieke

Welcome to IES Marieke, I pronounce it with a Japanese accent, it's okay, isn't it ?

I hope you enjoy your time here ^^

For Mangas, I would suggest Beelzebub, hilarious Manga =D
I also applied to be a typesetter, I have to redo my application, but I'm just toooo lazy xD

Thank you!

I have no idea how my name sounds with a Japanese accent, but I bet it sounds cool.
(I figured my name would be hard for a lot of people. Italians say it like 'Marica' or something and for people with English as their mother tongue it's really hard XD)

I will defenitly try reading Beelzebub, I've heard a lot about it. I'll give it a try this weekend, if my teachers like me enough to stop giving us so much homework!

I guess I have to do a lot of practise before I try ;^^

Hmm, maybe I can ask my friend (who got me addicted to manga in the first place) to watch my work...

Yeah It sounds cool ^^

I may not be a good example, but my first try was me applying to the test xD
It's not as easy as I imagined though (especially Cloning, it's simply what every typesetter hates)

The thing I hope is you being active ^^
Try and have a look on Spaaammmmmmm Section =D

I already looked at your test and the comments for an example and what I should and shouldn't do.
I hope you don't mind!

I'm already a bit familiar with photoshop and absolutly hate cloning! (probably because I such at it)
I really need to practise a lot!

I'll try to be as active as I can, knowing me I will at least visit the site everyday.
Haha, I'll take a look at it.

p.s You said you gave my name a Japanese accent, do you mind telling me where you are from?

Thank you!

I think I have to practise a lot more before I can apply, escpecially (man I hate that word) on the cloning and redrawing. But I'll do my best, and hopefully one day I can give something back to this wonderful community!

I'm sure I'll enjoy it here, in fact I already do!

Thank you!

Yeah, I'm doing a kind of school called Gymnasium in Dutch. You studie the acient Greek and Latin culture the 1st year, you learn how to translate acient Greek and LAtin in the 2nd and 3rd year.
After that you can choose to drop one of them (or keep both, but only 2 people do that). I chose Latin.
The 4th,5th and 6th year you're gonna translate original acient Latin texts. The 4th and 5th year you also have 2 (4th) or 1(5th) hours a week studying the ancient cultures. We went to Greek in april 2010 and to Rome in november 2010. It was lots of fun!

This is still my normal high school by the way. Right now I'm almost finished with my 5th year. Next year is my final year, if I graduate, I want to go to a university in Amsterdam (I live 50 km northern from there) and study farmaceutic sciens (it has to do with developing new medicine, for aids or cancer for example, or just a new kind of aspirin)

Well, now you all know my story :)
If you don't understand the high school part, you can look it up on wikipedia.

And Morte,
Right now we're busy translating Seneca, we're also doing a play about Nero (I'm Octavia, who is banished to Corsica). The writer for my Central Exam next year is Livius. They say his stuff is hard to translate, so I'm scared!

Nice. I'm handleing some of Quintus Horatius right now, learning his life story and doing some of his poetry. Just finished the story of him fleeing the battle after Brutus was defeated.

Hmm, the name sounds familiar and I'm pretty sure there is some of his stuff in my tekst book, we just won't do it ;^^

Have you done Martialis, Catullus or Ovidius (the only 3 other writers we did this year). We did a bit of Plinius last year.

Mm...Greek, I'm also interested in Greek as well, luckily that it's Portal related as well.

I've done Ovid for the sake of the Medusa Mythology exam, but I haven't read the other three authors you mentioned. I don't suppose that Catullus is the catullus from the catullinarian conspiracy that Cicero stopped?

No he isn't. Catullus has written a lot of poems.
I liked the stories of Ovidus.
Semeca is a bit wierd. He is a philosopher and writes letters to a person that know one knows if he even existed.

Honestly, I think I don't know anything about Greek now. But I can still read the Greek alphabet.
