So, after 6 years of being here…I just realized I never posted on article on my own personal club. It’s just that it never crossed my mind to post an article (not that I write much articles anyways) on here and I never got a topic to post about (I’m not the one to write about my favorite movies, media and things, I don’t do that). So today I decided to write an article for myself, and it’s about how I discovered and joined Fanpop. I don’t know how I remember every detail of this, but I certainly do.
When I was in middle school, in grade 7th, me and my friends became obsessed with anime. We would talk and discuss about different animes, our favorite characters and watch many of them together. One of my close friends at that time recommended me an anime called ‘Angel Beats!’ I saw the first episode and fell in love with the anime. I immediately searched about in online so I could save photos and share it with my friends. One of the photos was from this site. I was intrigued by the name ‘Fanpop’ and clicked on the photo which redirected me to Angel Beats Fanclub on here. I saw people uploading images, videos, links, and articles in the fan club. There were polls where people were giving their opinions and commenting. Also, the forums and fans writing on the wall….it was so cool. 12-year-old me was very fascinated. I had never seen such a site like this before, all of this was new to me. Fanpop seemed quite amazing. I decided that I should sign in and create an account as I wanted to have fun too. And that’s how………. I joined Fanpop.
While I’m here, I wanna give a shout-out to my very first fan on here who added me on their fan list first (I didn’t know anything about adding and fan list thing back then). It was Chibi-Chipette. Thank you Chibi-Chipette for being my first fan!
This year marks my 6 years on being here. It’s a very mixed experience, but I had my fun and made few good friends who remember me even now and always welcome me whenever I stop by. I’ve temporarily moved on from this site and only come when I remember about my account that exists on here. Fanpop has become a nostalgic place for me, where I relive my memories from my childhood, the conversations I had with my friends, the comments I wrote on, the content I uploaded on different clubs. Everything gives me a glimpse of how I was when I was just a teenager having fun and spending so much time on here without a care for the world. Things have drastically changed, I’m no longer teenager, I’m a young adult now and I have to set my priorities straight and take my responsibilities of life as it comes by.
In the end, I will say and I never regretted my decision or the time I spent on here. If anything, I’m glad I discovered Fanpop and joined it. I can say without any hesitation that it was worth it. All the laughs, all the smiles, the props, the medals, the friends…it will be always worth it.
Well, that wraps up this article and my story of how I discovered Fanpop. If you are reading this and have come till the end of this article, then thanks for reading!
