HOLA! Last night, I got the entire LOTR trilogy on DVD. YAY! I watched The Fellowship of the Ring (The first movie) first. I can't watch the other two until I finish them. Poos.
So, today I was on the Arwen Undomiel website. They are amazing in the Elvish category. I've learned some very useful phrases in Sindarin. Here are two:

Labo vi Orodruin (Lah-boe vee Ore-oh-DROO-inn)
Translation: Go jump in Mount Doom
Burn! (Pun intended) Here's the next one:

Hu nin mant han (Hoo neen mahnt hahn)
Translation: My dog ate it
I'm going to have to use that one. Especially considering I'm cyberschooled. xD Here's the page I found these on:

I also found my name in elvish which was interesting. Basically, they took the meaning of specific names and translated that into Sindarin and then formed it into a name. These names aren't actual examples of Tolkien's work, but are neat, nonetheless.

Ercassiel (Air-kahs-see-ell)
My name looks pretty awesome. I might have to change my banner, eh? xD
Now, I thought I'd add my human's name, because hers was pretty awesome, too.

Lithoniel (Lee-thone-ee-ell)
That is Ashley. I really like it. I have no idea why. Anyway, they translated over 1,100 names into Elvish, so I'm sure yours might be in there somewhere. I'll give you the link to the girls' list (because I assume you are a lady).

I hope you enjoy those links, and learn a bit of elvish. Freak out your friends, trick your teachers, sound awesome. I'm telling you; it's going to be the language to learn. xD

Oh my gosh...I had the best dream ever last night. Somehow I managed to combine Avatar: The Last Airbender, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Storage Wars, and Britain's Got Talent. xD
In my dream, I was Aang and I found out from Dumbledore or Gandalf (I couldn't tell the difference) that the One Ring had fallen into Voldemort's possession. Apparently, he was hiding it in a book that was in a desk in the library of a hobbit hole. I used my Invisibility Cloak (Yes, that invisibility cloak) and I snuck into the hobbit hole. I opened up the desk and found the yellow book that contained the One Ring. Somehow, one of Voldemort's minions noticed the desk open and close. Voldemort knew it was me, and I had to run out of the hobbit hole very quickly before he could grab my cloak.
The outside of the hobbit hole looked exactly like my human's house. We live in a rural area, so we have a very large backyard. It was night and was filled with firebenders and dementors. Saka's head was lying on the ground (it looked as if it had been blown off). Voldemort and Prince Zuko's uncle (whose name escapes me at the moment) were searching the backyard for me. I ran until morning when I found a KFC.
There, I met up with Dumbledore/Gandalf and some supporters like Saka (how his head got back on, I have no idea), Prince Zuko, and Katara. I told them I didn't want to carry the One Ring around because it was dangerous, so we decided to hide it. I came up with the brilliant idea to hide the book with the One Ring on the roof of the KFC *sarcasm*. Dumbledore/Gandalf and I climbed to the roof and I found the perfect spot to hide the book. Then, D/G noticed two people hiding in a tree nearby. They happened to be Darrell and Brandon from Storage Wars and were spies for Voldemort. D/G and I pretended to plant the book on the roof, but we really took it back inside the KFC.
Then, we tried to find a new hiding spot for the ring. We went to my human's grandparent's house and looked for spots in her backyard. We couldn't find anywhere to hide it, so we went back to the hobbit hole/ my human's house that Voldemort abandoned. It was completely my human's house now, and there was no trace of the hobbit hole. There, I tried to destroy the ring (which is impossible because it can only be destroyed by the fires of Mt. Doom). When I couldn't inflict any damage, I thought of flushing it down the toilet. D/G told me not to because Voldemort would surely search the sewers. I realized it was best to keep the ring close to me at all times.
(Somewhere during the last paragraph, Brandi and Jarrod from Storage Wars appraised the One Ring. I forget where exactly)
D/G, my supporters, and I went back to the KFC. We discovered that the roof had been torn up. Darrell and Brandon the spies must've told Voldemort that we planted the book on the roof. When Voldemort found no book, he destroyed the roof (and probably Darrell and Brandon. I don't know for sure.). We walked inside the KFC, only to discover it had been transformed into a dojo. Then, we saw Voldemort's army was outside. I found a trap door leading down into a cellar. I decided that I would store the One Ring there while I fight.
Voldemort's firebending army blasted the doors of the dojo open and war began. I leapt outside and was waterbending and firebending like a mad person. After destroying a lot of enemies, I came face-to-face with Prince Zuko's uncle who was pretty high up in Voldemort's army. He started firebending awesomely and I shot a blast of water his way. The blast was so hard it killed him, causing me to do a little victory dance. I noticed the rest of the army stopped fighting. They were fighting on Voldemort's side by force and now that the uncle was dead (and apparently Voldemort, too. Some else must've killed him) they were on our side.
The battle was over, and I walked back to the dojo/ KFC where D/G was crying happy tears on the steps. Prince Zuko was declared Firelord, and I walked back inside the dojo to get the One Ring. D/G and I heard giggling coming from the cellar. For some reason, I was convinced it was Ant and Dec from Britain's Got Talent (don't ask xD). D/G went down and pulled out two skinny, red headed hairy guys. They complained in a southern accent that they weren't allowed to fight in the army because they were too hairy (?) so they decided to steal the One Ring. Then, everything was happy.
THE END.

Hello, everybody! It is Holly Casey Davis here with my blog! :D I'm so glad I decided to make one. I can now share with you some purty crazy stuff.
Now, you're probably thinking "What the heck does 'Holly's Menel' mean?". Well, Holly is obviously my name. But you knew that...I do hope you knew that...Anyway, "menel" is the Sindarin word for "heaven". So my blog's name is "Holly's Heaven". Now you're probably wondering "What the heck is Sindarin?!". Sindarin is an elven language made up by J.R.R. Tolkien for the book series "The Lord of the Rings". They happen to be my favorite books, so I decided to learn a little Sindarin. You may have also noticed from my banner that I can write in the elvish script. I messed up and wrote it in the Quenya style (oops) which isn't that different than Sidarin; the vowels are just placed in different spots.
If you're interested in learning elvish, here's a wonderful dictionary:

Here's where I learned how to write in the elvish script:

I will keep you all updated on my life and all Peppermintsoup affairs! You might just learn some elvish along the way...
