Good evening,,,

I have some questions which buzz in mind like a bee.
I'll be your pathfinder Art-Enians

Nastia, here are some statements. Could you comment on them?

Your name (Nastia) reflects your character in a way.

You registered in Art-En and still visit it because..............

Art-En three years ago is the same as now.

You will visit Art-En even if you begin your career.

Some members quit as soon as their posts reach 3000




To be continued...

Peace Be Upon You :

حسامي : you have preceded me in starting asking questions... ok man

___________


Nastia :

Though we ( I & you ) have the same suffix in our names ' tia'

but my one is of Italian or Latin orgin while yours is Russian

I was really touched by Anastasia' story

The Russian Princess of Romanovs
the daughter of the last Czar of Russia :

The question is :

Do this story & this character influenced you to choose your nick name ?

Why did you choose the name you chose to be your nick name here ?

To be continued .....

wow! here's Nastia then

Actually, it's your posts Nastia that I like and the mind behind them I'm curious to discover.
I think a name weighs nothing that we ourselves chose to us whatever we try to create a halo of cleverness, beauty, and determination around it, don't you agree with me? Oh no...that's not a question for you honey ; I'm just commenting on the stories spread above.

Immmm… let's begin with the easy ones

What is your aim in life?
What do you do to make your aim always in the sight?
Are you of that kind of people who try to pursue a certain philosophy in life or you simply wing it?
What do you do when you feel yourself has diverted a bit from the way or the aim you put for yourself?

Do you believe in the so-called friendship through the internet_ with friendship I mean here relations with women particularly as the case becomes a bit different with men and if you give us your opinion on it also that will be great.

Why do you read?
What do you think about people who do not like reading nor to get extra knowledge out of the school\university curriculum?

You've gained admission to the master, sincere congratulations , how is it going with you? What might you say about the new situation you've been in?

حسامي,
Good evening..
Hmm, it seems like so much work is waiting for me ahead...

Well, so many people had asked me this question so far, the reason why I chose this name was my fondness of Russian literature..(The Brothers Karamazov, Dostoyevsky) was the first novel I read when I was 16; and since then I've been reading Russian novels and other things, but obviously the Russian characters had their strongest influence on me. I found this name in one of the novels but I forgot which once.. it just stuck to my head...

I still visit Art-En simply because it's the most useful site for me as a student, though my participations are mostly questions but I like it.. it reminds me of college days even when I'm not studying
Definiteny not... I remember three years ago 95% of people were not the same we find here, I mean they disappeared and new people came... there are other changes like the increased number of sections; it's so much better of course.
Ok, that depends on how much free time I'll have, but surely enough I will try to pay some visits; you know... for the sake of my memories


Maybe they feel bored, or maybe they have their own reasons
, but it isn't nice to quit anyway...




Go on... but please stop asking questions about Art-En.. I had enough

Portia, Is it really pronounce (Porsha)?? I always heard it like (porshia)

You have provided us with such rich information. To be honest I didn't know that Nastia means "resurrection" .. but it really has a nice meaning
The story of the Russian Czar is familiar .. I saw it once on TV but I don't remember it very clearly.
Thanks a lot for the info Portia...I enjoyed reading them, and this shows your interest in collecting info about anything.. that's really nice of you..
Well, I said why I chose this name when I replied to Husami's question, and the story has nothing to do with that...


Thanks again Portia

Thanks .. I'm here to confess, and if you discover anything let me know about it
So I understand that names don't express people's characters? that's mostly true, coz someone can choose a fabulous and bright name while they are not really like that.. in general I like simple names.. you know what's my bluetooth name? it's (Rosemary).. just the name of a herb.. but I like it
That's one of the hardest questions one may answer (talking about that will take ages!!!)
In short, I always try to make my life useful, I want to complete my studies and have a good job; but that's not everything.. I will have other plans like learning foreign languages (it's one of my hobbies)
If you believe in your aim, you will never forget it
I have my own philosophy sometimes though I don't like to complicate things; for example, I believe that we should never give up .. life always brings new things; things you might never expect, and I think this is the most beautiful thing in life: the ignorance of what might happen in the future, coz even when you feel like all doors are closed in your face, new gates will open and let the light in (does it look like philosophy? )

I do waste a lot of time; it's bad I know, so the only way to be serious is to lock myself in my room and start fixing things
I didn't use to believe in this kind of relationship until I met my friend; she is from Singapore, we speak English of course.. she is very nice, we've known each other since two years and till now our frienship is as strong; she keeps posting greetings everyday in my page even when I'm away...
But this is an exception, I believe that we have to be very careful when we use the internet !!
It's just as if you're asking "why do you eat?"
I think they have a serious problem, of course they don't see the danger because there are no physical symptoms for ignorance!
The situation is completely different now, coz before I didn't attend all of the lectures, I studied almost just before the exam.. I depended on the curriculum books alone.. but now... I must attend all of the lectures; I have to study more; and I have to look for other resources, the curriculum is
not enough !!! it's a bit strange ... and I'm trying to get used to that.

Thanks a lot for your questions, they are difficult but nice

Nastia, this is the admitting SEAT so calm your nerves and sit down. I'm agent 007 ; I'm here to save your skin.

The second shower of questions is about literature.


What's your comment on/or completion for these statements


Alyosha's most shocking revelation for you in Brothers Karamazov is....

Your heart is with literature but your mind is with linguistics.

You wish you didn't open a book in your life.

A language you like to learn in the future is...

A book you like to read more than one time is...

A writer you never get bored with is...

A literary character which you sympathize with is...

Peace Be Upon You :
Yes , it is . Actually i didn't know this piece of information till أندلسية told me about it and then i read such prononce in Ala Al-Ibrahim's post ( بورشا ) i could later make sure of that by Google Search , but in reality i like (بورشيا) pronounce rather than ( بورشا )
You may saw it in a documentary film cuz it is known very well for those who like to see such kinds of films

Also there is a carton film which talks about Anastasia , but ofcourse in their imaginary way


_____________

My next questions are:

Who are the Art-enian members you feel that you like them ?

As one of two girls who were accepted in Linguistics, Do you feel lonely ? Don't you think that only two girls accepted for studying this MA is unfair ?

______________-

حسامي : Thank Allah i am not your victim , your questions remembered me in the Acadamic course we were studying

Thanx Nastia 4 replying our Questions

حسامي, Mercy on me !! I feel like I'm having an exam !
I read that novel so many years ago and you want me to remember Alyosha's revelations? Sorry!!
But I'm really curious to know the answer, will you make an effort and tell us?
Very true! I wanted to go to the literatrue MA but suddenly changed my mind, I thought Linguistics would be

more useful ! I don't regret my choice though.
No comment.
French and Spanish
All of Dan Brown's novels.
W.S.Maugham, Dan Brown, George Orwell, Paulo Coelho.
Jude the Obscure, Heathcliff, and the main character in Emil Zola's novel (L'assommoir)

End of answers!!

Prepare yourself for my questions when your turn comes


Portia,
And Upon You.
I didn't see the cartoon movie, but I saw a movie where the character is called Nastia but when they wanted

to use her full name they said something like (Nastjinca) ..
I don't know.. I respect everyone equally well... and I don't know anyone personally. I had some friends here

but they left Art-en !!
there's another girl isn't that enough? No there isn't any problem; actually when I saw the names of

the accepted students I thought why the guys are more than the girls that much? is it because literary studies

is more girlish and the linguistics is more boyish? it may not be like that.. just kidding
and do you say it's "unfair".. ?? It's fair because nobody decides on that; it's the students' choice


You're welcome.. and thanks for your questions
