I get to be the zombie gypsy ^_^ lol just sounds fun.
|
Woo woo! Zombie Gypsies! <3 Sweet! Yeah, so once I get a chance I'll be posting assignments and asking who wants to do what part. ^.^
|
Sweet! But...don't we have to find out what the tasks are...? 0.o
And...oh my goodness our bellydancers breathe fire?? >.> I'm totally a firebreathing belly dancer now.. |
Shoot, I think there's a problem in my schedule guys I may not be able to do this, just got my work schedule and I'm gone all day on the 14th and 15th
|
Awww... well that sucks... and we'll do things as we can. I'll list what we know so far... like the writing assignment and the promotion stuff and then we'll do the rest when we can.
|
Ahh okie! Sounds good! And sorry to hear that Lunarius! DX Feel free to continue to support us, though, if you can't participate. =]
Oh oh and sweet pictures! Actually...that blond girl could be me....if I were her and therefore prettier than myself and without a huge nose...>.> hahaha Definitely colors I'd pick, though. And I really have no idea which one you might be. I'd say either one those leftest girls or the little girl...since I have no way to tell how old the picture is, either. XD |
Hmm If you guys want I can help up to the point that I have to leave then find someone to take my place.
|
I'm actually the short on in green on the left. ^.^
And that works for us. |
Aha I knew it!
And ya, that should be do-able. You should probably check with the game coordinator, though...=/ |
Yeah I'll do that.
|
Future Gypsy here. Hopefully. c:
I'm actually dressed as one right now. Kinda funny. xD My summer-hippie attire - Now hat school's out, I don't have to worry as much about fashion. :drool: |
haha me, either. I'm sitting here in my workout clothes. ...Actually...gypsy attire looks rather comfortable.
|
xDD
Much more comfortable in this heat wave than a pair of jeans. Dx |
Oh, I bet. I haven't worn jeans in weeks...and usually those are my daily attire. Suddenly I'm like "omgosh skirts and shorts....so much better....." And when it's REALLY hot, I just sit around in an oversized tshirt.
|
Whoa, team gypsy has a camel! *ponders team choice in a new light*
|
haha that's right. We're the cool team, with camels and bells and such. >.>
|
Don't forget the fire-breathing gypsies.
|
SWEET JESUS THERE'S A CAMEL <3
|
Well, duh! I figured it was just given. ^_~

Hello Ladies, is there room for a male gypsy here? I can do acrobatics, dance, sing and I'm pretty handy with making things.
Also, as long as we are here, how about a quick history lesson on gypsies? I noticed you seem to be focusing on the middle-eastern "belly dance" gypsies, only one of the many types of gypsy. There are Romani people living everywhere from Egypt to Brazil. The Roma(Romani), or Gypsies as they are more commonly called today, are thought to have originally come from Tibet , but being the nomads they are, they spread over most of Asia and the middle-east, down into northern Africa. Later they traveled north, up into all of Europe and eventually from there over the seas to middle-America, moving further south to most of South America and north to the southern parts of North America during the last decades of the great gypsy caravans. Romani influences can still be seen world-wide, and in more than just at your local Renaissance Faire. The lively dances of Russia, Turkey and Hungry are partially shaped by the ever-changing folk dances of the Roma. Flamenco music, clothing and dancing was spawned from the Roma, and the Cajun culture is also said to be derived from them. Just as the Roma influenced the world as they passed through it, they adopted parts of every culture they became a part of, thus no two clans were ever alike. A few interesting facts: -The bangle-covered vests and sashes were originally from the Turks, not India. -April 8th is officially called Gypsy day -The Roma people have a flag, anthem and language, even though they have no one country of their own -The first world Romani congress was held in London, 1791 -Words for the Roma in other countries: latin-Cingarus, Turkey-Cingeneler, France-Tsiganes, Germany-Zinger, Russia-Cjganji, Hungary-Ciganjiok, Italy-Zingari, Spain-Gitanos. Pictures of Romani around the world: Indian Russian Spanish Turkish 1 Turkish 2 Fancy Male Turkish Male Turkish Generic European Indian Male Yea, these are all costumes, but they still give a good look into the different styles of Roma clothing. It is very hard to find actual images of traditional Romani dress. And it's hard to find pictures of male Roma :( I hope some you all find this interesting! |
