I am a Goddess

You dont have to tell me that i'm beautiful-->> I know that i am..
You dont need to tell me anything-->> I dont need you or anyone else to tell me, i know already...I am a Goddess, i love or kill whom i please...Be warned I am dominating, I will not let you or any other weakling walk over me...Do you know who I am? Do you dare ask? Scared of the answer you might get?? I am a fighter and a lover...If I choose, you might get to know both of those sides of me...I am an extremely sexual being, but I choose to stay inactive until i see a human worthy of me!!! I will retreat into the forest where i have become accustomed to, there I will wait and lerk..Beware for if I get upset, you will feel my rath..yes that's right..
For I am a Goddess...

Every time that I read a book of the series "for dummies" there is always a title "xxxxx xxxxx 101". So! What is this 101? I´m live in Brazil and I don't know this expression.

I know about name generators and everything, but I couldn't find the inspiration because this name is for an outcast elf. I need the name to be vulgar or have a vulgar meaning because it was given by those who hate him. Update in an hour or two.

I was reading "Jimmy the hand" earlier, and they made reference to "Foul 'Ol Ron" (The sentence is near the end. "They circled for an instant, with breath nearly as bad as Foul ol’ Ron’s issuing from the mercenary")

Was the author reading Discworld just before writing this? or is this a case of parallel evolution.

If there's not there should be, that way you wouldn't have to buy books or worry about damaging them, they're already on your computer...

So, I just read the rest of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince... you were all right of course it wasn't Voldemort.. but I'm devastated by the ending and actually I knew about Dumbledore - but the way it happened ... what did you all think? I'm hoping this means that Snape and Voldemort will die in book 7 ... and why don't Ron and Hermione just date already!

Sydney headed to school on her Element skateboard. Her black emo cut hair swaying in the wind. Her crystal blue eyes were glistening in the sunshine. Everything was going perfect. She kicked up her board and sat by a shady tree, waiting for school to start. Yes she was a tomboy, but she didn’t care what other people thought about her. She wasn’t the most popular girl, but she had a chance to change, and be a new person.
“Another year, another school” She sighed as she slung her messenger bag over her shoulder.

‘RIIIING’ goes the morning bell. She tucks her Green Day sticker covered board underneath her arm and headed inside the building. She opens the double doors to find people… and lots of them. They were all rushing around, with books in hand. One guy ran into a locker door.
“What a nerd” she laughed. She went to the office to get her schedule and locker number.
“Uh hi, I’m Sydney Johnson. I’m the new student and I need my schedule and locker number.”
