OK, i didn't really want to admit that Elijah had rubbed off on me from all the way over here, only having met him once for a total of two mintues, but here goes:
I was writing an essay last night and I noticed that I'm typing "as well" a lot. I can hear him using it a lot instead of "too". I think I started it myself, especially in essay writing to fill out space, but, honestly, I think it's a coincidence just because he has a very good vacabulary and speech pattern and I try not to sound like the airheads I have to go to school with. But I could be wrong and just not realize it...

I've noticed that Elijah says "as well" a lot. I usually say "too" or "also", but lately I find myself saying "as well". Especially after watching videos of him on talk shows.
He says "amazing" a lot to describe things. Now when I use that word I feel weird, like I need to think of my own describing word.

Thanks for the beautiful siggie and icon, Deenan!

i use the word "awsome" an awful lot which i think i may have picked up from hearing elijah. it just sounds kind of funny and out of place when i say it because of my aussie accent (awsome isnt a common thing to say in australia)

Quote from: Lith on November 16, 2006, 07:04:43 pm Thanks, Lith.  The link took me to the home page and I found the article in their 'movie' section.
I love this quote from Elijah: "The great message for kids in this movie is that the things that separate us from each other are also the things that make us who we are. That's something that should be celebrated." - it's just sooo Aquarian!
Sorry, getting off topic

I've always liked drama, but now I love it! I'm currently aking my own movie now. It's sort of like Monthy Python. I'll show you all when it's done. After watching my first Elijah movie...years and years ago...lol. I wanted to become an actress.

Well put Hobbit Girl. That's how I feel too.
As for his expressions... I heard myself the other day saying "ultimately" three times in one sentence. That, I believe, is something only Elijah would do, so I will blame him for this one.

LOL Girls I know what you mean! The one word that I tend to always say is "fantastic" and I say it like him most of the time... There's others, I'll post when I think of it.

Lol. I like that as well. 
Yeah, Lij is awesome role model. So I'm not ashamed to admit that some of his experessions have infected me.

English isn't my mother tounge, so as far as being influenced on a speaking level - I can't really tell. But I totally ditto what you girls are saying. He is an inspiration on so many levels.

I have never really taken anything from Lij  . SO I don't know if this goes along with the topic or not. But here it goes anyway.
After seeing FOTR just a few years ago I fell in love with Lij . I never really knew whom he was until then. But any how, I was going down the road one day and thought to myself, "if JK Rowlings did HP and never wrote before and about the same age as I was I could write a book too". I have always wanted to write a book but never knew how to get all the ideas I had in my head on the paper.
(Back to Lij now). Well anyway I have been writing my book for the last few years and have it done (just making a few changes). Now that I know what kind of person my hero is I think Lij is the only one that can do the part justice. If for some reason my book hits it big and is made into a movie later.
So that is what kind of influence that Lij had on me with his cuteness(sp) and acting abilities.

Don't walk in front of me,
I might not follow.
Don't walk behind me,
I might not lead.
Walk beside me and
be my friend.
