Nice to meet you, I'm Laura, but I'll be using Clavilae here~. I've been a Laurant since 2009/10 (thanks to my brother who's a fan too) and I'm from Spain.

I LOVE singing! I also like learning languages, of course listening to music (Akiko Shikata is one of my favourites ^^, but I have some more that I like a lot), and also enjoy playing videogames. I like learning in general so everything is curious to me.

I'm a bit shy so being in a forum has been difficult for me, but I'll try my best with this one! ^^ Adding that I'm sorry if my English is not as good as it should be, or if sometimes I misunderstand what you say.

I hope we can get along and have fun! ^^

¡Buenas!

No es que yo sea precisamente la mejor socializando tampoco, pero es un placer conocerte. Como podrás imaginar dado el idioma en el que te estoy hablando, yo también soy española. Sin embargo, suelo usar más el inglés por internet ahora mismo. Aún así, no tengas miedo en comunicarte conmigo usando el español. Puedo entender perfectamente lo incómodo que es intentar hablar en una lengua que te es extraña!

Y... bueno, eso. Una vez más, un placer!



(Admin edit: For anyone confused, Alchea is welcoming her in Spanish and offering support, should it be needed.)

I'm really glad that you decided to come here and post. It's always rather difficult to launch head-first into a new community, even when it is one that's rather small like this one currently is. With that said, I hope that you can come to enjoy it here. A major goal is to have it welcoming, so hopefully the uneasiness will slowly fade away. You're awfully cool, after all, so let's hope others can come to see that, too.

Hello Clavilae!! Nice to meet you. I'm a pretty shy person myself so I understand entirely how uncomfortable it can be at first. Hopefully you'll find that the environment here is nice and welcoming to everyone from all over. I hope you like it here~

Hello! I don't believe I've seen you around before, but it is always nice to see some new faces! I understand being shy (you're certainly not the only one) but hopefully we can all open up and be comfortable here. （＾ν＾）

(On another note, your English is quite good, there's no need to apologize for it).

Thanks everyone! I'll really try my best to participate in this forum eventually and getting confident about it and with welcoming people as you I really want to do try hard!

Alchea, encantada de conocerte, un placer poder hablar en un idioma con el que “no tengo que pensar tanto”, creo que utilizaré el recurso de vez en cuando

Welcome, Clavilae!

It's always a pleasure to meet new people, hopefully this forum will be nice enough so you don't find it difficult to interact here.

Y entiendo que escribir en un idioma que no es tu lengua materna sea imponente inicialmente, pero con el paso del tiempo y práctica, cada vez te será más fácil expresarte, te lo digo por experiencia propia. Así que, ¡ánimo!

(Sorau is encouraging her to not be shy about her English skills, everything is about practice and practice)

Hello and welcome!
It's very nice to meet you, and I hope you have a wonderful time.
Also your English is very good, considering Spanish is also a very widespread world language.

Thanks , nice to meet you ^^

I really hope that as the time goes by I will be confident about my English, and socializing skills as well

I'm really glad that Thanako told me to enter this forum, even though right now I'm abusing her kindness and asking her for support when I attempt to write something. The time when I won't ask her will arrive though ^^
