My Spring Break started today. :D Yesterday, my principal made an announcement that we were going to have school today because we have had too many snow days. I fell for that one too.
To make the day worse, I have an eye doctor appointment today & I can't get my contacts in. :(
I started looking at names for characters in my book. Here a few of my favorites.
ASHERAH Perhaps derived from Semitic roots meaning "she who walks in the sea". This was the name of an ancient Israelite goddess
ORPHEUS Pronounced: OR-fee-əs (English) Perhaps related to Greek ορφνη (orphne) meaning "the darkness of night"
BALTHAZAR Hebrew form of the Akkadian name Bel-sarra-usur meaning "protect the king"
BASAJAUN Means "lord of the woods" from Basque baso "woods" and jaun "lord," the Old Man of the Woods
NEREIDA Pronounced: nay-RAY-dhah Derived from Greek Nereis meaning "nymph, sea sprite"\
AMARANTHA (Ama, Amara) From the name of the amaranth flower, which is derived from Greek meaning "unfading."

Aww sorry I fooled you, I couldn't resist. I had already failed at tricking every family member, I'm not very convincing at trickery. ^_^
