I've been a fan for quite a while. Granted, I wasn't a very active one, but I plead guilty to once in a while being caught up in the fandom too much that I'd hear myself say, "I'm having difficulty keeping up." or that, "I'm constantly broke because of Arashi." Recently however, I had a friend who started developing an interest in the fandom and I started seeing myself in her. I'm now flooding her with video clips, pictures and doramas; much like what
babyshazam and
aiah1999 did for me back then. I suddenly remembered everything that this fandom meant to me and everything that it helped me cope up with.
I'm really proud to be supporting such a wonderful group who never fails to make me smile despite whatever it is that I'm going through, and to be a part of this wonderful group of people who, more than just being fellow fans, have slowly become/are slowly becoming real-life friends.
