95 years ago, -about- 1316 passengers, and 913 crew members (-about-2229 in all), boarded the unsinkable ship of dreams, the TITANIC. They were the first ones (and last...) to experience the glamorous ship. The first ones to sleep in the sheets, look into the mirrors, and use the silverware. But, of course, we know that the story doesn't end there. After the first class men chatted and smoked cigars, first class women dressed in their best, after second class strolled along the decks, after third class danced below... After all the money spent, after all the descrimination, and love among the people. 2 days passed after they boarded the ship on April 10th 1912, a tragedy accured. 713 people survived to see the Statue of Liberty in New York. Yes, a lot was lost through the tragedy, but a lot was found as well. For instance, a lot of people wouldn't have met, which brings me to the 1997 movie that I know you all are waiting for me to mention...

Jack: "Winning that ticket, Rose, was the best thing that ever happened to me... it brought me to you. And I'm thankful for that, Rose. I'm thankful. You must do me this honor, Rose. Promise me you'll survive. That you won't give up, no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless. Promise me now, Rose, and never let go of that promise. "

Old Rose: "1,500 people went into the sea... when Titanic sank from under us... there were twenty boats floating nearby... and only one came back. Six were saved from the water... myself included. *Six*. Out of 1,500. Afterward, the 700 people in the boats had nothing to do but wait... wait to die... wait to live... wait for an absolution... that would never come. "

(Quotes from Titanic memorable quotes -www.imdb,com)


Please enjoy this big event, and remember what it is truly about...

...It is about all 2229 people, and the ship of dreams herself.

P.S.
I posted the event before the 14th, because at this point in time, 95 years ago, the TITANIC was already on the ocean. heart

Hello everyone-
Thank you so much for being here and for the intro compliments, hehe... Well I hope that you come back and visit. And I hope that you like the event so far, sorry it's not as big as we would've liked it, but the day is still young, and I really don't mind how many days it goes on. So remember, about 2:20 am (technically, that is on the 15th, depends if you see it late night on the 14th, or early morning on the 15th.) But anyway, just thought that I'd share that. Well, enjoy your day everyone, and I hope to be able to talk to you more.

cheese_whine To the Titanic and all who went down with her. To the memories that lay buried in the bottom of the ocean, ebbing away into a cavern of broken dreams and shattered hopes for the future. To Jack Dawson and Rose; and to all else who lived and loved on board the ship of dreams.

To the memories. cheese_whine

http://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic_passenger_list/

theres more to the whole site but this part was the best part, something i'd never thought i'd see. a complete passenger and crew list (or a really close one anyway.)
