Hello there, everybody! My name is Nicole, and I am a sophomore in high school. I discovered FYEMA on Tumblr around the time when all of the major memes were coming out. Though I do not plan on being an English major, I love English. No, seriously. It's actually not a matter of not liking English that would prevent me from being an English major, I just like Anthropology, my intended major, a bit more. I'm one of those people who likes pretty much every subject.
Random facts:
-I play the oboe. I picked it up about a year and a half ago.
-I play the clarinet.
-I didn't read the Harry Potter series until this year.
-I love the TV show Bones.
-I am a Whovian.
-I used to play softball but Band took over my life.
Well, um, I'm not sure what else to say, so, yeah. . .

Yay, Bones and Who fans! You're in good company.
Where did you fall on the Harry Potter fandom scale? Potterhead or non-Potterhead?

And seriously, who on this forum isn't a Whovian... ...Me. Regardless, welcome to the FYEMA boards. I played the clarinet in middle school but quit before high school. Just wasn't for me. |

I would say that I'm a Potterhead. I'm not obsessed or anything, but SO dressing up with my friends for the midnight premiere of DH pt 2.
And, Dodger Thirteen, I would watch Doctor Who if you haven't. It is quite good.

See, I actually have watched some Doctor Who. I don't see the fanatical appeal. I think the fandom may have ruined it for me.  |

I don't really pay much attention to the ridiculous fandom... I just watch the episodes and enjoy.
(As in, maybe give it another shot and ignore the fandom, because sometimes it scares me too.)

YESSS another Bones fan. Alll riiiighht. Favorite squint?
Question: do you see yourself continuing to play instruments after you graduate? Like, as a hobby or competition or what? I played the flute for a while but I could never see myself playing it in my adult life.

Like Olive said, I would try Doctor Who again and try to ignore the fandom as much as possible. There are times when I also hate them. For example, I think they kind of ruined the last arc because some people had thought of it ahead and others thought of other ideas, ect. Oh, and the complaining! There are always times when you want to slap everyone upside the head.
I can't just choose ONE Squint! I love them all! And, I plan on playing through college, but after that, I'm not really sure!
