Hello hello hello hellooooooooo

 

My name is Fliss!

 

That's nice isn't it.

 

Also, I'm 20, have blonde hair, drink too much, general normal-type human being. Even though I've been told on numerous occasions that I am nothing of the sort. I don't mind which I am really. Tra lalalallala.

 

Anyway, I am currently in AUSTRALIA *bums majorly* and I looooooove it, yay! I just got a job that will keep me going until december, which means Christmas in the sun for me this year, YAY! (btw, if you see my Dad, don't tell him about the Dec thing yet coz he doesn't know, hehe). Before now, I stayed in Sydney for a month with my lovely friend Ivana and then travelled for a month. I went to Melbourne, Brisbane, the Whitsundays, Fraser Island, Cairns, all of the BEAUTIFUL stuff, mmm :D

 

Here is a picture of me doing what I usually do:

Here is a picture of me with a scenic backdrop (the Sydney Harbour Bridge & Opera House):

ok... a bit about me... err...

 

i'm 22, live in northern ireland, and i don't get out much (could you guess?)

 

i enjoy computer games, music, a very small handful of TV programs (stargate, both of; star trek, all but enterprise; red dwarf; blackadder; dr who; buffy/angel; stuff like that - and also fantasy stuff, and a bit of anime)

i do watch films, but not as many as i should - the problem of money, as well as no decent cinema, and not enough HDD space...:thumbup:

 

the books i read are almost exclusively fantasy - LOTR, janny wurts, trudi canavan. also have a few computer books lyin around, as well as philosophy and hitory books (both fiction and non-fiction) but the majority would be the fantasy ones...

 

oh, and i'm a vampire... :D (well, i don't drink blood, but i do sit up half the night)

 

 

i don't go out much for 3 reasons - not many ppl local that i'd want to spend time with, no money, and nowhere to go even if i had it.

 

 

and yeah, i'm lookin at whats gone before... i hate writin these things, so i'm just gettin ideas from everyone else... :angry:

 

 

if you need some kind of 'real name' for me on here... Garret. (my real real name isn't being mentioned, again for personal reasons...) a few of you might even understand the forum name i have now from this! :YAHOO:

 

 

lets see... events i've been to... LFCC1, C6,7,8 (i think? they merge together a bit... which ones were marsters and shatner at? i think that was 7&8 respectively...)

 

 

languages i know... a bit of spanish and a bit of irish. did spanish to GCSE, but i've never used it since, so while its all deep in there somewhere, its buried under so much junk... as for irish, i know enough to pass myself, and more than many where i am. want to learn latin sometime...

 

and to finish, i believe?

MSN - k33per@hotmail.co.uk

i use this occasionally - its not my main email, but i keep an eye on it. i keep my main one private at the moment.

 

myspace - no chance.

 

LJ - i barely look at it myself, let alone update... so no :angry:

 

EDIT ouch, thats longer than i thought...

Hi, I'm Cate! I'm 21 and a medical student. I'm now half way through my 6 year degree, lucky me :drunk:

 

I'm a big Joss Whedon fan and I love love love Firefly, Buffy and Angel. I can't pick a favourite because every time I do, I watch one of the others and change my mind. They're all great! I also love LOTR and could hardly contain my excitement waiting for each film as they came out in the cinemas!

 

I'm quite new to the showmasters thing. My first convention was C9 and I went to the LFCC a few weeks ago, both of which were a lot of fun. I'm going to try to go to C10 as well, so I'm well and truly hooked now! I had no idea what to expect at C9, but I read lots of posts on the forum which were really informative and helped me a lot - thanks guys! - and everyone at the show was so friendly I had a great time.

 

I'd like to add a picture, but I'm not sure how... I clicked the 'insert image' button and it asked me for the URL - does that mean the picture has to come from the net?

 

Anyways... enough about me. It was nice reading everyone's replies to this topic. Maybe I'll see some of you around at a show :P

Hey,

 

My turn? yeah.. okay, here we go, I'm not good at this kinda stuff but I'll give it a try..

 

I'm Jennifer, 17 years old (soon to be 18, not in such a rush though) and I live in Sweden, yes, the wonderful country of Sweden which I wont be living in my whole life. I'm half swedish and half american if that's interesting.

So yeah, right now I study the normal swedish, english, science stuff but I also study media and things, as in the history of tv, radio and all that fun, exciting stuff. I also study photagraphy, and make movies and write scripts in class, creative stuff like that. I'm also just starting a few classes in psychology etc. wow I'm boring you, I tend to do that, I babble a lot when I'm in the right mood, I'll stop talking about school though, 'cause that's just not something I wanna talk about.

 

So yeah, that was school (sorry about that), let me see here, what else..Music, can never go wrong with music.. I mean you can, if it's sucky music, but most music don't suck, so yeah, I like music, I also like movies and a few tv shows.. But I'm not gonna name them all because I know if I would do that I would write waaaay too much but if you for some reason wanna see what kind of stuff I like or if you just wanna say hey, you can go to my myspace http://www.myspace.com/bothswus ... bothswus being my aim and my msn is jentan88@hotmail.com

 

So yeah, school, music, movies, tv and yeah. Most of all I just care about my friends, and because of that, I have to name them all.... no of course I wont.. don't worry. But my friends and my family are more important then anything.

 

Yeah, um, I think I should be done now... oohh, I like travelling, no, I LOVE travelling.

 

I should also tell people how I got in to all of this. First of all, I'm a newbie, I'm on the forums kinda a lot but I don't post that much, or kinda at all, just a little, not really though.

I started crewing at the sci-fi event in Sweden and from there I became interested in the events in England. I first crewed with SM at the latest LFCC, and I hope I get to crew at C10.

 

I guess that's that

 

Hopefully I'll see you all soon.

 

Jennifer

Hey Hey!

 

Im Elaine (Or Lainey) I not really a 'reg' here but im not a newbi either.

 

Im 17 from Barnsley and I study media at college and LOVE it! I really love the singer Darren Hayes so can often be found talking about him and boring people with random Darren facts that they really dont want to know.

 

Iv been going to CM events since C5, The first autograph I ever got was 'Craig Parker' I loooove him :unsure: and since them iv been hooked on LOTR autographs, my only expetion so far is Alan Cumming. Im currently really into Harry Potter and am considering getting some HP auto's at future events instead of just LOTR. My fave HP character is Draco, I have read the books but my fave characters are based on the films, I also like Lucius, I managed to see Tom Felton at C7 but the guest line up was so amazing that time i was too poor to get his auto.

 

I can be found at Collectormania and CollectormaniaGmex. I can never afford LFACC ;) If you see me please say hi.

 

This is me my hair is not always curly...check my myspace for more pics :)

I have loads of nicknames from school and work : Adam, Ads, Fadam, Crostini, Crozza, Mr C, Crosbie the list goes on.

 

This has to be and IS the greatest forum in the world. Its like having one big extended family who share the same interests at you. i'm sure you guys have seen me around Collectormania and LFACC's before. I've been going to LFACC since last year and Collectormania 6.

Hellloooo!

My name is Matt and I’m 24 (25 next month :o ) currently living in Bromley, kent, which is essientially SE London.

I try to apply my trade as an illustrator, working on online comics, websites and some magazine work but I also go to shows exhibiting and selling prints.

I’m mostly a Star Wars nut, but like pretty much anything to do with Sci-Fi & Fantasy whether it be film, TV, books, comics, toys. There's loads of other stuff I like too, but wont bore you all :poki:

I’m also the Chapter Rep for the London FanForce over on the boards at theforce.net, where we organise regular social meets (all are welcome!).

 

My first Showmasters experience was way back during the dizzy heights of Collectormania 2, and since then I’ve been to everyone as well as the LF&CC and G-Mex shows. Life just wouldn’t be the same unless I had my bi-annual trip to Milton Keynes :YAHOO:

 

Here’s a pic of me at LF&CC ‘06, dressed in full Jedi gear:

Hi, I'm Jenny and I'm 16 from Hampshire. I've recently finished school but will hopefully be starting college in September doing Media Studies, Critical thinking, English Language and Computing.

 

I like dancing and go to a Latin dance class each week. I also like music and go to quite a few gigs. I'll listen to most types of music but the main types that I like are usually described on their Myspaces as Indie/alternative/folk/rock. :P

 

The first of these events that I went to was G-mex mainly because of my love of Harry Potter but I'm also now interested in Dr Who, LOTR, POTC and Lost. I've now been to 3 cons and loved them all, especially LFCC as that was my first attempt at going in costume but I now have plans for others at the future events. :o

Hey ho. Thought I'd re-do this as it's been a while. I don't know if anyone reads this far back except me but anyway!

 

I'm Kirsty, I'm 19, nearly 20. I'm at college, re-taking my A-levels (long story and one day, if you like, I shall bore you with it :firedevil: )I'm studying English Literature and Language, Media and History. I'm really enjoying it this time around.

 

I've been attending events since C4 and have crewed a fair few. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Events are awesome, I get to see many people that I love who live miles away and also meet some great new people every time.

 

I enjoy the regular stuff like movies, music and books. I also write a fair bit when I have the patience. I like to dance stupidly to music (as you can see below) and make people laugh. I love laughing myself and Tash is able to make me do this quite a lot. I love chatting and do this often. I love Ice-cream far too much. SO buy me some. If we're in MK I shall have some cotton candy flavoured Ice-cream from the Miss Millies stand. Thanks :)

 

I love to meet new people so if you see me wondering around events please do come and say hi! :P

 

 

Here is a picture:

yep that's how cool I am.

^_^ ello all, im Alan, im 22 and im from sunny Scotland

 

just outside Glasgow to be exact, it's horrible here and I want to move to Milton Keynes! But probably wont. I work in the Playtex factory partly in the office and partly in the warehouse. And no, the job isnt half as exciting as some people might think :P

 

Been going to SM events since C....*thinks*...C7. Been to the G-Mex and went to LFCC for the 1st time this year, all in all I definitely prefer the MK events :lol:

 

Im a 'bit' of a fan of Dr Who, Lost, Stargates, few other things but not too much as tv seems to be rather dull these days. I also love movies, LOTR and Silent Hill probably being my faves. I don't post on here tooooo often and only really know about 3 people on here, namely Emily, Steff and Rebecca, but quite willing to make friends with any1 and everyone else :D

 

My myspazz is in my signature and my email which i use for MSN is amiscandlon@yahoo.co.uk for anyone who fancies a chat! :o

I've been a lurker on these boards since C6 and only just decided to register ^^

 

I'm mommy to Caitlin (31 months old) who always comes to Collectormania with me in some sort of fangirl T-shirt or her Gryffindor sweater :chair: I'm a student of the Open University, studying for a degree in Social Sciences, and I am also a Childminder. My ambition is to be a Foster Carer. Either that or working backstage in a Theatre; I got AA in Performing Arts AVCE, A in Dance and Theatre Studies at college.

 

My favourite shows are Buffy, Angel, Charmed, Tru Calling, Firefly, LOST, 4400, Supernatural and everything else people obsess over, I also love Harry Potter.

Nobody ever believes me when I tell them my favourite bands are Manic Street Preachers & Good Charlotte. I also love Green Day, MEST, Simple Plan, Avril, etc.

 

I have a livejournal and a myspace, you can find out more than you ever wanted to know about me at those two places ^^
