Long-overdue "getting-to-know-you" post for new (and just sort-of-new) friends
Since I've acquired a whole lot of new friends from different fandoms during the past...oh...six months and haven't done a post like this in ages, here's some questions you guys can comment with and answer to tell me a little more about yourself if you're new enough not to have been around the last time I posted questions like this. DO IT. :D
1. What's your name? / Where are you from? / Job? / Give any other general information about yourself you'd like to tell
2. What was your first fandom?
3. What five music albums would you want to have with you if stranded on a desert island?
4. What five movies would you want to have?
5. What's your favorite word?
6. What all do you do in your fandom(s)? (Do you read/write fic/make graphics, vids, or art/just generally partake of the lolz and commiseration and squeeing?)
7. Who is one of your favorite fictional characters ever?
8. What's your most favorite fandom that you can't imagine ever leaving?
9. Rec me something (a fanfic, a book, a TV show, anything)
10. What Hogwarts House do you belong to?

1. What's your name? / Where are you from? / Job? / Give any other general information about yourself you'd like to tell
I'm Sara. I live in Champaign, Illinois. Just turned 23. That's about as interesting as it gets...
2. What was your first fandom?
The first internet fandom I got into when I was about 13 was Roswell. Hehe. Which I guess means I've now been doing this kind of thing for ten years. I don't think I realized how relatively young I was to be hanging around fanfic sites, and of course I came across some things that were kind of boggling to my innocent mind. LOL.
3. What five music albums would you want to have with you if stranded on a desert island?
Yellow House by Grizzly Bear, Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin, the Lord of the Rings: Return of the King soundtrack, Lamb's self-titled, the Gattaca soundtrack
4. What five movies would you want to have?
Almost Famous, Robin Hood: Men In Tights, Roman Holiday, L.A. Confidential, Shakespeare In Love
5. What's your favorite word?
"lune"
6. What all do you do in your fandom(s)? (Do you read/write fic/make graphics, vids, or art/just generally partake of the lolz and commiseration and squeeing?)
I read and write stuff, and do a lot of fanmixes despite how graphically challenged I am when it comes to the covers
7. Who is one of your favorite fictional characters ever?
Batman
8. What's your most favorite fandom that you can't imagine ever leaving?
Harry Potter, and Battlestar Galactica though the fandom itself is probably much more likely to die after a while
9. Rec me something (a fanfic, a book, a TV show, anything)
10. What Hogwarts House do you belong to? Hufflepuff
11. Got pets/kids? I have a beagle named Casey and a cat, Smokey
12. Coffee or tea? Usually coffee
13. Vampires or werevoles? werewolves
14. Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly? GK
15. Cats or dogs? cats
16. Star Wars or Star Trek?
Trek but only because there's a lot more of it to like before you even take all the novels into account. Plus Roddenberry was the fucking man and Lucas is just...kind of weird now.
