Hi! I just joined this group recently myself. I’ve been thinking about it for awhile, but I was always too shy. *blush* But alas, last Saturday, I met some people I RP with in an HP RPG in DC (I should stop using acronyms, shouldn’t I,) so I decided to finally bite the bullet. Also, I should be moving closer to the District in the near future, so. :P
RL name: Rachel LJ name: chavalah Age: 22 How did you come to live in DC? I grew up in Baltimore, and am currently on the eastern shore of Maryland for college. My plan for next year is to move to the College Park area to attend grad school. Who is your favorite character? hm… well, I love the trio, but I think I’m more a fan of their friendship and what they can accomplish together than any of them separately-although they’re all lovely separately. :P I’ve also had soft spots for Ginny, Percy and Snape in the past, hee. And poor Merope. :( What's your favorite pairing? I guess I’ll go with Ron/Hermione, though I’m not really that hardcore about it. I’m very hardcore about shipping in my RPG. /dork What's your favorite book in the series? Goblet of Fire, also for the movies, though I prefer the book. How long have you been in the fandom: Goblet of Fire was actually the first Potter book I ever read; my aunt bought it for me the summer it came out. After catching up on the other three, I started reading fanfic on and off throughout high school and some of college-mostly on fanfiction.net. I was always a lurker; never really actively participated until I joined by first RPG in July, 2004. Since then, I’ve been playing actively, but that’s about the only fandom thing I do. Meetups sound fun, though; especially ones that are close by and less expensive than Lumos or something. :P
Yup… that’s my life story. ;) Thanks for having me!
Hi ho! It's Sabrina (or Sabs) - we met this past weekend at the rainy/cold street fair ^___^ Good to see that you joined up and posted an introduction :D I've met most of these people (who have delurked and attended) and they're a great bunch.
So true that it is less expensive than attending a conference (but that doesn't stop me from attending them! ^___^)
Yup, I decided to take the plunge. :P I'm looking forward to attending a meetup! And hee- I am going to California to meet up with Potter fans, so I guess I have no basis to say that the conferences are too expensive. :))
