Class: Upper-Royalty did I forget to mention I was a princess?
What do you do, your main function in life/society: My Papala tells me it is to marry and have many babies. O yes and hopefully be given the responsibility of Vulgaria and the truffle exports one day.
Have you ever gone skinny-dipping / do you know how to swim: I am a princess therefore of course I have gone swimming. I also have enjoyed skinny dipping a time or two.
Do you make fun of people: I do have a bit of fun with Dozabella, I can not help it she just falls asleep at whim. What would you do?
Favorite Color: There are so many colors to choice from, I like blue, green, red, orange, pink, purple. Gold is my favorite it reminds me of the truffles in Vulgaria.
Have you ever committed or been convicted of a crime: I would never be caught doing such an act. If you can keep a secret I have stolen a few radishes without anybody looking.
Closest friends/How did you meet:
- One of my closest friends since I was 6 was Gemeone. We meet during one of your Feast’s to celebrate the new harvest of truffles. Gemeone’s mother was a good friend of my Nanny and he thought it would be funny to hide my plate at feast. He learned at that moment that you do not hide food from me. Sadly he did marry and I have not been able to spend as much time with him as we have in the past.
- Caesar Boleyn is a gypsy who I can call a friend. We did meet when we were traveling and did attend a Boleyn reveal. Caesar does make me laugh for he does not mind the custom’s we do hold in Vulgaria.
- Dozabella is my Mamala’s lady in waiting but she is also a dear friend of mine. We have grown up together and she does know a few secrets of mine. Though I am still not sure why she does have a tendency to fall asleep whenever she feels like it.
One Pillow or two: I have four pillows for you see Papala can not say no to his little Radishella.
Pets: I have a horse named Danka who I got as a birthday present. I also have to little puppies that I got recently when we traveled to France.
Favorite Type of Music: When I hear the sound of gypsy drums I can not help but dance. My Mamala loved to sing me little songs to help me fall asleep hearing those songs still to this day will always put me to sleep.
Hobbies/Pastimes: Let’s see I do enjoy a good truffle hunt. There is a game I play with Dozabella called Hot Hot Radish. My Mamala taught me, Musical Men though Vulgaria is running out of men for this game.
Personal Hygiene: I am a princess in search of her prince so I must bath every day.
Favorite Food: That would have to radish’s dipped in truffle sauce. Our cooks do know how to make a sveenya (swine or pig) that will make my mouth water. I also enjoy apple pie, sweet radish bread, roasted boar, even strawberries. All this talk of food has made me hungry.
Are your parents alive, do you get along with them: My parents are alive and I love them with all of my radishafull heart.
If your parents are dead, when and how did they die: I coud not even imagine what I would do if my parents would leave this golden truffled earth.
Favorite place to relax: There is a pond behind our castle that I do love to go swimming in. I also like to sit there and write letters.
Favorite Holy Day / Why: Svyaatkee is a day that I do love for this is a day I am able to give my Papala and Mamala a gifts for no reason at all. I have to admit I also like this holy day for I have gifts piled as high as my head. What can I say I am a Princess.
Favorite Drink: I enjoy a good cup of radish wine my Papala has the best in all of Vulgaria. When I visit Canterbury I will find my friend Carmella Delicious and she will give a bottle of her special cider.
What's your bedtime: I am not allowed to stay up to late. My Mamala will see me to bed and then Dozabella will come in and we will sit and gossip about the day. Though I tend to do most of the talking for Dozie will fall asleep before me.
What, if anything, do you usually wear on your feet: I wear a pair of leather shoes that have the colors of yellow, blue and red.
Are you married or single: (Sigh) If you must know, no I am not married but I am looking.
Do you have a family / who are they:
- My Paplala, King Salmonella- He is a man who I admire for he has a strong fist for his country but a tender heart as well. I am proud to say that I am his daughter when we do travel.
- My Mamala, Queen Rubella- What can I say about my Mamala. She is as beautifull as a golden truffle and as sweet. My Mamala has taught me much about life and I hope one day I will make her proud.
- Aunt Princess Tichinella- I can never remember who is younger my Papala our Aunt Trixie. My Aunt has been there for me whenever I have needed her. I have to say I do not see why she has not married yet.
- Grandpapa Pakrat and Grandmama Inkena-my Papala’s parents and my Mamala’s father, I do not see them as much as I would like.
Favorite Entertainment: I have all kinds of entertainment to choice from. I do love to watch a joust when I do travel to Canterbury. We do have mechanicals that come to castle and perform stories for us. I also like it when we get together as a family and sing.
Favorite Subject in School or Chore growing up: I would have to say learning to read and write. I was allowed to go the same school my Papala learned from. I enjoy writing letters to Gemeonie and Ceasar when I have the time.
Least Favorite Subject in School or Chore growing up:
Favorite Sport: When I was little my Papla and I would play Truffle & Radish. I was the truffle so I would hid somewhere in the castle. Papala was the radish and he would look for me. It got harder to hide as I got older.
Most Humiliating Moment: As we were traveling in Romania we stopped to visit my Mamala’s father. We were about to begin the feaste when I heard gypsy drums and I saw the most handsome gypsy man. I got excited and thought I would impress him by doing a dance for him with a scarf. As I began to dance I got tangled up in my skirt and tripped and fell. My skirts went over my head and I showed my bloomers. When I got up the gypsy man was laughing and I was not.
Proudest Moment: This would be the day I found the golden truffles. I was five years of age and I was playing outside with my nanny. I wanted to play Hot Hot Radish and she just wanted to sit and eat radishes. I was running and chasing a little boar when I fell into a hole. Luckily I was not hurt since the bottom of the hole was covered with truffles. When I got up I saw they were not just truffles but golden truffles. I picked one out and called to my nanny who then toke me straight to the castle to show my Papala.
Craziest Person or silliest you know:
What do you look for in the opposite sex: I look for a man who is strong, dreamy eyes, and a smile that will melt my radishafull heart. A man who can dance till the sun does kiss the earth and the moon does rise.
In our Hierarchical Society everybody has somebody "over" them, Who is your immediate "overlord": My overlord is my Papala and Mamala. I love them both with all of my heart.
Favorite Sport to watch: My Papala does play a game with the dry skin of a sveenya. It is quite entertaining to watch to see all the men of court rush to get the skin. My Mamala does talk of a game that was so foul of language to bad I had to miss it.
Do you remember your first kiss: (giggle) My first kiss was with our stable boy, Allek. It was the night of 18th day of birth and we had just finished a day of feasting. I wanted to ride my horse, Danka and I had the stable boy help me get him out of the stable. He offered to ride with me for he had a surpise for me. As we rode we went to a pond near the castle and he had set up a little picnic for us. We drank radish wine and talked till the sun did rise. After we had put the horses back in the stable Allek leaned in and gave me the softest kiss. I will remember that night for the rest of my life.
Do you keep in touch with your childhood friends: I write to Gemeonie when ever I get the chance. With all of the traveling we do it is hard to stay in touch.
Where is your favorite "Vacation" spot: I do love to travel to Canterbury; whenever we do visit I will leave with a new necklace or rings. I like to go to France, the king is quite funny when he knows we have arrived with the truffles.
Have you ever been overseas: Yes, we have traveled many time overseas
