To your good elf!

With my growing excitement for the first part of the Hobbit film being released in December, I would like to talk about Elves!

Since the Lord of the Rings films have been out, I've been accused of resembling an Elf about 5 times! Most recently it was my nose that inspired comment.

If only it were more comments about how much I look like Liv Tyler....ho hum :p

For example being made to pose with sticky-out ears as above... (go on, they say, it'll be funny! you look like an Elf!)


Anyone who knows me also knows I have the teeniest, tiniest ears in the world and could therefore never be allowed in an Elf gang!

My ex boyfriend even went so far as to have my Elven name 'Nibenwen', translated into Elvish (that's not Elvis with a speech impedimemt!) and tattooed on his upper arm. (well at least he can tell his next girlfriend it's not a real word! :P)

I would hope it is my long flowing limbs, ethereal nature, calm and content ways that remind these kind souls of Elves...and not my ability to turn psychotic in an instant like Galadriel :D

And actually of all the peoples to be likened to, Elves are the coolest! I'd be quite upset if likened to a Dwarf :/

Plus I could have a bow and arrow!

So if you could be any race of peoples from the Tolkien mind which would you choose?
