Fenrir tells it all!

Hi I'm Fenrir, I'm 17 years old, I'll turn 18 the 26 of november ( don't forget! ).

I've got brown eyes and  long brown curly hair.

I was born in France and both my parents are tunisians, so that also makes me one :)

I love drawing, reading, memes, playing videos games, I also play the piano. (*cough* I have a hidden talent for freestyle rap *cough* )

My favorite TV show is Agent of SHIELD and Agent Carter, I love Marvel and the cinematic universe. The movies are really great because you can't understand the timeline if you didn't watch all the previous movies.

My top 3 books are : Bel-Ami by Maupassant

Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes

Le Magicien by Jean-Marc Souvira

I love listening to music, I listen to all kind, especially to jazz and progressive metal. 

My favorite band is Dream Theater ! 

They never dissapoint me, even though some of their long are really long, each album is a masterpiece, except the one who came out recently this february 2016: The Astonishing. 

it wasnt astonishing at all lol, this album was telling a story, the music was good but the story was too cliché. 

Let's forget that and speak about the other albums: this band has such potiential! My favorite album would be Octavarium, as the name says, the album has 8 songs, following each others. 

The eponym song is a summary of all of them, a magnificent masterpiece. 

Besides Dream Theater, I love Myrath, a tunisian progressive metal band, their song style has oriental influences which is very original and pleasant to listen to ! 

I also really like Lyn Collins and her powerful voice, my favorite songs of her would be " How long can I keep it up " and " Don't do it"

 Oh, and I'm a huge fan of Daft Punk.

My favorite video games are Technomage, Sabotain : Break the rules ; Guilty Gear, Metal Gear Solid and so much more lol. 

The one who won my heart is an online game, which is called Ragnarok Online, this game made me discover norse mythology, and now I'm fascinated by it .

That's why my name is Fenrir, it came from a powerful wolf, son of Loki, who has been kept chained up until the Ragnarok, the end of the world, also called ... the final battle.

I hope you liked my presentation and thanks for reading :)

Let's meet a Spice Girl!

Hi my name is Spice. 
I'm 17 years old and I'm in my last year (hopefully) at our high school in Bourges. 
I'm a big music lover, one of my favourite artists of this time is Drake. 

I've been listening to his music since his first album "Thank me later" in 2010. 

I enjoy the type of music that he makes, smooth rap and r'n'b. 


The album that I prefer of his is" Nothing was the same" in 2013 

 

He has become one of the most respected artists of this generation. 

He is able to sample old school songs and make them his own !

 

xoxoxo  

  

Happy birthday Bumper Yey!

Meet Maddie...

Hi my name is Maddie,

I'm 16. 

My favourite hobbies are reading and watching movies. 

My favourite types of stories are love stories because I'm very romantic. 

But I also love very much being with my friends and doing lots of activities with them. Because I feel very good with them. 

I can say all the things that I think without feeling embarassed. 

We also talk about life and philosophical topics.

Moreover I'm very interested in Politics because I think that it is important to know what  the World is, to change it into a better World. 

That's why I want to become a lawyer.

Futhermore I love practicing sport. 

Since last year I've been practicing lots of sports like Twirling, Gymnastic or Running. 

Sometimes when I feel bad I cook because that makes me feel better. 

I cook carribeans food from my grand-ma and also American recipes that I find on the internet. 

And I think all my hobbies will allow me to write  very varied articles. [Great!  Mrs P.]

Next time I will talk to you about serious things like political stories or maybe about Sports like the Olympics Games.

A special game: just for Roots and Culture!

If you are not Roots and Culture, you can play but your comments won't be published until Roots and Culture has played.

This is the shape of a country: what's its name?

Meet Yse!

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, well, hello !

You can call me Yse, a name which apparently comes from "Yseult" or from an athenian orator but also from a shinto sanctuary in Japan.

Daily, I listen to music and I sing, no matter what I'm doing, no matter the moment of the day, no matter the weather, no matter the music, I listen to every type of it : rap, funk, rock, metal, classic, jazz... 

I like dancing when I get a little bit of time. 

I've been riding horses since I was 9. 

We can say that it's my passion.

One of my favorite song is Layla by Eric Clapton.

A musician that I am full of admiration for is Ibrahim Maalouf... His music makes me travel very far, especially at night. 

Surprisingly, I don't watch series. I'm surely the only one in my class... 

There's only one which pleased me, It's called Inquisitio and it's a French series. 

I don't really have a favorite movie because I love cinema and I'm very touched by it in spite of the fact that I'm demanding. 

I'd say that Polisse or the saga of Pirates of the Caribbean left its mark on me. 

Then, I love the works of Hayao Miyazaki like Spirited Away or Howl's Moving Castle. 

I'd conclude this introduction of myself with books.

I really like dramas (in cinema too) and especially love stories, without the stereotypes you know. 

Without only nice words, but with silences, with a deep meaning. 

That's (almost) all !

Let's meet Riggnarok!

Greetings ladies and gentlemen, I’m Riggnarok and here are some things that you might want to know about me if it’s your goal.

I'm going to begin this article by telling you that I enjoy movies, some of my favourite ones are Sweeney Todd, Corpse Bride (and, to be honest, a lot of other Tim Burton movies), Harry Potter (all of them) and also most of Disney's movies (Zootopia being, in my opinion, one of their best.).

In terms of series, I’m a huge fan of Game of Thrones (my favourite character being Arya Stark, house Stark will win !) and anime (Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, Kill La Kill, etc.).

I also read books and comics: my favourite ones are the three books 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami for the novels and The Walking Dead for the comics. 

1Q84 is about two characters, Aomamé and Tengo, they are in their mid twenties and both living a normal life when suddenly, on a highway, everything is going to change.

Although music is an important part of my life, I listen to almost every kind of music but my favourite kind is definitely Metal/Rock music.  

If you’d ask me to tell you which is my favourite band I wouldn’t be able to choose, but if you ask me to pick three of my favourite bands, now I could answer you :  
The Pretty Reckless, Queen and Steel Panther (this one is not for all ears so be careful if you want to listen to some of their music.). [They've got a rough sense of humor, though!  Mrs P.]

To end this article, I could also specify that I’m in love with everything related to Japan and that I’ll probably talk about it on this blog, if I can of course.

[Of course you can! You're more than welcome to do it!  Mrs P.]

Bye everyone, thank you for reading, good morning, good evening and good night.
