Mmkay, I suck at intros but I've been wanting to
do this for a long time... I've been collecting
cels on and off for several years, exclusively
anime for the last three. But my income varies
from inhibitive to nonexistent, so for the past
few years I've had to consciously force myself
not to look at cels or get involved in the
community for fear of succumbing to the urge to
overspend.
Needless to say, it hasn't cured me of my
cravings and recently I broke down and got back
into the habit of keeping tabs on the old cel
sites I used to frequent. I couldn’t believe
what a relief it was and how much I'd missed it,
so I've decided to stick with it and exercise my
powers of self-control and be willing to suffer
the awareness of cels I'll never afford rather
than deprive myself entirely from now on.
As such, I'd like to finally get involved more
in the community and hopefully get to know other
collectors.
So here I am, introducing myself. Here, have
some stats:
Name: Jordan
Favorite series: Hunter x Hunter, Hikaru no Go,
Fullmetal Alchemist, Kodomo no Omocha, Fruits
Basket, Kino no Tabi, Eva, Gundam Wing,
Revolutionary Girl Utena, Serial Experiments
Lain, Berserk, InuYasha, etc. etc. etc.
Anyway, I hope to get to know many of you
better, and I'd welcome
guidance/advice/recommendations for this psuedo-
n00b. :)
