IT'S INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY!!! (Closing Ceremony)

Moghedian · March 8, 2009

Moghedian shuffles various Aes Sedai, Novices, Accepted and the occasional Warder through the door of the Celebration Tent where they are escorted to various tables by the waiters from the Phoenix Lounge...

Once everyone is seated she takes the stage at the front of the tent and peers down at everyone with a mischievious smile and taps a nearby glass with a spoon. ::)

"Welcome to the closing ceremony of the inaugural International Women's Week. Throughout the past week we have celebrated what it means to be a woman by hosting quizzes, creating banners, writing profiles for women who we find truly inspirational and generally enjoying our own awesomeness ;D As today is International Women's Day it is time to announce the winners of some of the competitions we have been having and mention the women who have been sponsored in the 'Remarkable Women' thread." :)

"Firstly, the winner of the banner competition. The theme was to sum up your pride in being female in a banner. The winner was this one by Claireducky! Congratulations!" :D

Gesturing to two of the waiters Moghedian grins as they unravel the banner.

The next competition was the quiz. We had approximately 20 entries for this and 4 people tied for second. The answers will be up in the Quiz thread shortly. The winners of the quiz with 100% of the answers correct was...

Claireducky and Quisalas!!!

Finally, the women who we felt deserved to be celebrated today because of the amazing and inspirational lives they lived...

Gorgo, Queen of Sparta

Sponsored by Charis

"I would really recommend reading some of those biographies, they are fascinating!"

"And with that, the official part of International Women's Week is over; thank you to everyone who participated and helped during this week." :D

She bounds off the stage and returns to the tables where all the delicious food is just arriving...

Walks in suspiciously, Bursius at her arm, and gawks at the inside of the huge tent.

WOW!

Moggie, you've outdone yourself ladie. This place is gorgeous!

Let's herself be guided to her seat all willingly and such. *grins*

I can only say that those women who have been sponsored by the various people participating in the profile thread are absolutely remarkable. Talk about inspiration. Phooyeh!

Elgee · March 9, 2009

Moggie, well done! This is a fantabulous set up :D

And I'm not surprised it was one of our Brown lovies who did so well - they're pure awesomeness, just like the women we've been honouring. Go Claire! ;D

*runs back to the Breakfast Tent to drag Daruya in here*

Raeyn · March 9, 2009

Hee, I'm glad someone of the Browns managed to ace that quiz - I know I didn't. *grins*

Been a lovely week dears, thanks for sharing all the goodness with us! <3

Kara_J · March 9, 2009

Woo! Lovely closing ceremony! ;D

claireducky · March 9, 2009

This was a wonderful event, Red Ajah! It was a lot of fun to participate in and it reminded me of why I am glad to be a part of this group of women (and men dressed as women!), because you are all awesome!

And as for the banner and quiz...wow! I didn't think I got all the quiz answers right! I guess my luck at 'testing well' as in high school has carried over. ^^ Thanks again for hosting this, wonderful reds!

Daruya · March 9, 2009

*is dragged in by Elgee*

Where are we off to in such an all-fired hurry? Don’t you realize I have important Blue Ajah work to do in the Red . . .

*jaw drops and eyes bulge*

Wow!

*faints*

Elgee · March 9, 2009

oh dear :o

*revives Daruya and helps her to the nearest table*

There we go, hon - you just fortify yourself with some eats and drinks and Red Waiters.

Bursius · March 9, 2009

*Stands by Myst as she takes her seat. Appears casual as he in fact scans the visitors' section for any sign of a threat against The Highest.*

Moggie, you did a really fantastic job of setting up and executing the International Women's Day program.

Congrats to claireducky on her Acing of the quiz :D

Moghedian · March 11, 2009

It seems that in one of my more scatter-brained moments I overlooked that there were in fact two winners for the quiz competition...

claireducky · March 12, 2009

Quisalas Selene · March 12, 2009

^_^ Thanks! I was so pleased I got the multiple-choice questions right, I just went on gut reaction, and didn't let myself second guess.

Us Browns have a reputation to uphold. *nods and sticks her nose back in her book*
