Wow thanks for keeping my fan-club alive everyone! I really appreciate that! Now, on to what I missed.

Yes, It's a long story. My great great great great grandfather was the son of the Baron of Compostela, which is in Galicia, Spain... but it's really a Portuguese Area, just look up Galicia and you'll find out. But, my great great grandfather married a Portuguese woman who died, before marrying my great great great great grandmother. Of course, Succession of Eldest Children always comes first, the son he had with that woman took over the Barony, this was before Compostela became a city... It's kind of confusing but that is the story, so I'm told.

Baron von Compostela lol. In Portuguese it would be "O Barao da Compostela" and Spanish it would be "El Baron de la Compostela". I actually think I have some german ancestry, but that would have to be generations back.

We all descend from Royalty, believe it or not, and that's what rocks about us!

Now my turn, I descended from Empress Theodora, lmao, now it's even.

Cool, that's four of us distantly/non-distantly royal =P

...what exactly does a baron do? XD;

Back then, Barons were lords who watched over lands for the kings. In Spain, there's still a king, but there isnt much need to watch over lands because no one's going to take over it. Nowadays, Compostela isn't a town any more, its a City, and I think that it can watch over itself, but the Barony is in the more rural northernside, I haven't visited the estate yet, but I will hopefully on the trip I'm going to.

Aaaaaaand this doesn't help because Dizzy isn't British =p~

Wouldn't have known lmao, but thanks! No wonder they're the lowest rank, we only live in Mansions, while Counts live in Grand Villas, and Duke's live in Palaces @_@ lol. But mansions are huge lol.

lol, I'm doing okay, my weekend was rad and weird at the same time, and why would everyone be jealous? I have no royal powers lmao.

Rad and weird... Ima not ask. XD

I don't know why they're jealous. Maybe it's that unsubstantiated rumor that you have a possibly legendary wealth of mythical proportions... XD

Hey, I was researching my favorite thread(FFDisc.), and I found something interesting.

Dizzy, why didn't you tell anyone you were an author? *authorative stare* Teelllllll usssssss, chillllld... XD

�SilverBlaze09�

[Dizzy]

Me, an author? Maybe... as a hobby, but it didn't work out. If you search the forums you can actually find my most of the terrible works.

[Chairman Kaga]

Heh, I would take a mansion over a regular house anyday, especially if it has some of that exquisite Spanish architecture (and, for that matter, is in Spain)~

By Compostela do you mean Santiago de Compostela, or is this a different place altogether?

[Dizzy]

Santiago de Compostela, but no one actually calls it Santiago de Compostela when you refer to it in everyday talk...there are so many "Santiago de" all over Portugal and Spain lmao, so either Santiago de Compostela or just Compostela works.

[Chairman Kaga]

Ah, thanks Dizzy. They never tell us this sort of thing in the Spanish textbooks, we just have maps of Spain with all of the official names, and none of this useful local knowledge <_<;

[Dizzy]

Definately, but they should. There is one exception though. There are alot of Santa Cruz, but there aren't any denotations such as Compostela or Cadiz. Santa Cruz das Flores isn't the same thing as Santa Cruz da Graciosa (Flores is an Azorean Island and so is Graciosa) But it happens through Portugal and Spain frequently. It's like Maria. Everyone and they're mothers, and grandmothers, are named Maria...

[Greed]

yo yo yo XD I finally found out my crunk friend has a fan club! ::is slow:: Can I join?

I dunno if I joined before or what, I forget XD;;

[22sa]

Welcome to the Palace, Cartoon!

[Dizzy]

Thank you for joining Cartoon! Yessa! Let's party lmao.

No one's keeping my thread alive , when I'm in Spain no one's going to reply and its going to die

[Kylie-chan]

Oh, so crunk DOES have a definition. You liar, Alex. XD

I'll keep this alive, Dizzy-kun~ yours, and 22sa's.

[Dizzy]

I'd appreciate that Soooo much! Thank you Kylie! We need more members though lol.

[Kylie-chan]

XD It's fine~ ^-^ It'd suck if all this died~ don't worry, they'll come ;o

[Dizzy]

I hope so. So what's everyone (well...Kylie) doing today. In Kylie's case, what are you doing tommorow.

[Kylie-chan]

Kylie is doing nothing but typing and talking to you guys, and Kylie will hopefully NOT be going to school tomorrow. n_n Handy 'tis, 'specially as I didn't do Geography... >3

[Dizzy]

Awww I love Geography! One of the jobs I got after taking a Career Aptitude test was Cartography, and you need 3 years of Geography o.o, lol but that's not for me.

[Kylie-chan]

Oh yes, map-drawing. That's exactly what my homework is today~ ; And it's an assessment task. XD

[Dizzy]

I actually like making maps o_0 lol, its interesting because I just do lol.

[Kylie-chan]

If I had full use of my hands, it'd be okay... xD;

[Lucid-Acid]

Geography... No thanks, I find it dull. XD

[Chairman Kaga]

You're all lucky to even have a geography class offered at your school...I love the subject but our poor hick school can't afford to teach it...

[Dizzy]

My school does o.o I always thought my school was poor lmao, must be all those bomb threats. We have World Geography I, World Geography II, and Intro to Cartographic Studies.

[Chairman Kaga]

Wow, lucky you...we used to offer geography but no kids would take it so I think we dropped it for that and to save money.

We actually don't have a choice of what history classes we have to take. 9th graders HAVE to take American History, 10th graders World History, and 11th graders American Government =/

[Dizzy]

We have to take 3 Science and Technologies, 3 Maths, 4 English, 3 History, 3 Language (of one), 4 Gyms, 2 Healths, and a whole bunch of other craps. The best thing is that we have Semester Based classes so we aren't doing it for a whole year.

I've taken so far, World History I, U.S. History, Algebra I, Geometry, Biology, Intro to Chemistry, English 9, English 10, Modern Health, Gym Freshman and Sophomore years, and alot of other stuff.
