Howdy, Bonjour, and Yo.

Hey! I'm Ashlee. Also known as Ashlee to some. I'm 20 and a starving college student in Missouri, where I'm a major in English and French, hoping to be an ESL teacher in Quebec (as well as a freelance literary translator) one day. I'm not from Missouri, however; I spent my childhood in Utah and my adolescence in California - you decide where I "grew up."

I've always been a big TLK fan, ever since it came out when I was three. But I actually only got my first TLK toy recently, which is sad. It's a stuffed Nala from the Disney Store, and she is the cutest lion you will ever see in your life. She is either loved by or annoying to my roommates, depending on their moods. My "obsession" with TLK came about around three years ago when I decided to watch Simba's Pride again after we rented it on Netflix (I've never actually owned it, sadly). For some reason, the first two movies just stuck with me and I watched them over and over. Then I discovered that there's this huge world of TLK fans, and fanfiction, and fanart. And the original characters! Talk about originality. :) I've tried my hand at drawing some lovely lions, and while I do agree that they're my best area, I'm still not a good artist. So don't expect to ever see any of them. xD I am a writer, however, so maybe there'll be some fanfiction eventually.

So . . . yeah. Nice to meet y'all! (I also lived in Kentucky, see?) Drop a line whenever you want to chat, parler le français, or poke me in the head.

Welcome to the board!

Great that someone out there actually wants to learn French on their own, hehe.
I had it in school for 9 years, but I can only speak very basic.

Well, that's a nice intro to be sure, but I didn't quite understand one thing. Why would we want to poke you in the head? :lol:

Hey, you're talking about becoming an english teacher in my province. ;)
I took the ESL program during my secondary (grade 7 to 11) and I actually loved it. (great teachers) Good luck in that project of yours. ^^

Welcome on MLK and have an awesome time here. =D
