Introduction!

Hey everyone and welcome to Menewsha's Celes Paradi event! I'm super excited about this event and I hope you all enjoy it! Now, to the important part ... welcome to the Music and Lyrics event thread! There will be 2 contests within this thread, so hopefully you guys will find something that suits your taste as they are pretty different to each other. ^^
Contest 1
Contest 1 consists of using your imagination and writing skills. I want you to create either a short story, a poem or write your own song, which involve the Celes Paradi goddesses in some way. You can include all three of the goddesses (Song, the Feast and Dance), or 2 of them or even just 1. The story, poem or song does not have to relate to the Menewsha story line but the theme of your chosen goddess(es) must be used (eg, if you chose the goddess of the Feast, the story, poem or song would be of a food/feast nature). There is a 1000 word limit (roughly one page of A4 in Microsoft Word) for whatever format you chose and you may only submit one format (you can't submit a story, poem and a song). Rules and prizes are described in the next 2 posts, so go check them out!
Contest 2
Contest 2 is testing your knowledge of modern and older music videos. There will be a total of 20 music video images, which will be split into 2 sections ... the first is that of 'Older music videos' and the second being 'Current music videos'. For the first 3 days of the event, you will be attempting to guess the Artist and Song Title of the 10 Older music video images with the following 3 days attempting the 10 Current music video images. On the final day I will announce the winners. So, to sum up, you will be trying to identify the artist and the song title of the images I display. ^^ Please be sure to check out the rules before attempting this and also see what prizes you can win!
About the Hostess
Just a quick note to briefly introduce you to myself. I am 18 years old and have been a member of Menewsha for almost 16 months now and have been a member of staff since October. I am lucky to have met some wonderful people on here and have enjoyed every aspect of Mene so far. This is my 4th event thread that I have either hosted or co-hosted and I must say I thoroughly enjoy doing it and I'm looking forward to how this event thread turns out!

@Spring
Well..I don't mean to feel like a dork. it's just the particular band that I know, and feel like a dork for being a fan of theirs XD

thank you, I'll have fun writing it. Maybe I'll expand one of my older poems.

I'm no good with music videos. ^^; But I AM a bit of a songwriter...*plots*

It's a shame the one I'd enter would have to be in English. I'm pretty sure I don't stand a chance. XD; But I'll do it anyway!

...and just a quick question - I do plan to write two versions; one English, one Japanese. Is it okay if I provide you a link to the Japanese version on my dA when I send the English entry? Will it hurt me any? :sweat:
