Title: Hello From A Noob.
Post by: Maine on April 10, 2013, 01:25:58 PM
Hello all!
Yes, I'm a complete newcomer. To be honest it's  a tad scary.

So, anyway. HI!
My name is Maine (but really Sarah) and I'm from that land down under.
I am nineteen and I've been searching for a great online community to become a part of since I finished High School/College.
I've got a lot of time on my hands, and after doing some snooping around (please forget I said that,) this seems like a pretty sweet place to be.

I'm quite an eclectic personality, so I won't go too much into that. If you have any queries I'm here to answer them :)
(I like ALL THE THINGS!!) I'm kind of an artist?

I'm really looking forward to getting into some rp, and making some new friends.

aaaaah excitement!!!

Also, I would appreciate any pointers, again I'm a crazy amateur to the entire fandom, but I'm a quick catcher-on-er-er.

Well I'm off to sleep. So, catch'a later I guess ^_^

Hello and welcome to the forums, Sarah! I hope you have a good time here ^_^

I was new to the fandom when I joined here too (wasn't that long ago, actually) and the best advice I can give you is to just be yourself! :D
Everyone here is super friendly and I think you'll fit in just fine :)

Thank you all for the kind welcome, I feel right at home.  :3



As for the tradition of asking a ton of questions:
Hobbies?
Interests?
Music?

Ah yes, the obligatory [and fun] getting to know me ~

Hobbies: I like games, board games, computer games. always have. I grew up with Pokemon, so they are a favorite. especially emerald version. Games I also like are : Okami, minecraft, Jazz Jackrabbit, Avalon code, Spyro and Crash.

Books! all time favorites include The Inheritance Cycle, The Orchardist, The Outsiders, Talon, The Dragon Keeper series and Feeling Sorry For Celia. I like dragons :3

I'd say my biggest (and probably most dangerous) pastime is my need for adventure. I'm always finding new trails in the surrounding bush, sometimes it's dangerous, but I don't care I love it. It's nice to find a space somewhere to just space out and relax. Is that weird?
Also I love any kind of sport, but I'm not on any teams :\   

Interests: I am big into graphic design and photography. I love all forms of art, I just love creating stuff I guess.
Also, I wish to start wring my first novel soon If you would like to know :3

Anime/cartoons....I love them Adventure Time, mlp, Avatar, fma, Fairy Tail, Bamboo Blade, you name it I will grow to have an unhealthy attachment to it  XD

Music: I could go on forever, but at the moment these are a few I be diggin' recently; Ellie Goulding, Andrew Huang, Cameras, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Tallest Man On Earth, Fleet Foxes, Tinpan Orange, Sara Bareilles, Mutemath, Florence + the Machine, Lily Allen, The Jezebels, Daughter, The Chemical Brothers aaaand DeadMau5
yes, its a long list, but if there is one thing you should know, it's that I love music :) 


anyway, I've waffled on for too long. Oh, YOU like that thing too? SO DO I!!!
THATS SOOOO GREAT :D

Čau... Welcome to the forums!  ^_^  (man, I haven't said that in a long time)


I remember first joining about 4 years ago or so... Have been gone a while and just recently started coming back again now I'm at Uni, and thought I might as well join in with the welcomes to the newbies  :P




All I have to say is this place can be pretty great for RP and art, I used to do a lot more art than I get the time to do these days, but when I did I could always rely on someone to come and give some advice or just check out what I had drawn... In general everyone is super friendly, so I would say you picked right by deciding to come here  ^_^
