Questions:
What was your first fandom? (Or what was the first thing you obsessed over?)
As a young kid, I was super into Disney Barbie Dolls. Also, in 3rd grade I got to watch a marathon of dubbed Sailor Moon episodes hosted by an actress dressed as Sailor Moon. That really made me obsessed with the show!!

Who is your favorite fictional character?
Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter!

What is something you love about your favorite fandom?
I have tons of fandoms! Comics, pokemon, visual kei, Sailor Moon, Star Wars, Broadway Musicals…..the list goes on! One thing they all have in common is that I love meeting people with similar interests. In short – other fellow fans!

What is something you hate about your favorite fandom?
Sometimes….the negative fans. Especially fellow Star Wars fans.

Are you a fan of something that doesn’t seem to be that popular?
Oh, I don’t know…Visual Kei (jrock) music has died down alot in the West. It used to be Monster Hunter but now many people are fans thanks to Monster Hunter World!

I play Monster Hunter all the time!!! I still play lots of Animal Crossing. I read Spider Gwen comics often!!

What fictional place/house would you love to live in?
Does the Magic Kingdom count?!

Japan! I would also love to go to Universal in Japan just to enjoy all the Monster Hunter stuff!

What character has a wardrobe you’d love to have?
Maybe Hedwig from Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

Today my domain is 7! I came from an age of Livejournal, actually I had my first livejournal in highschool: 2002. It was until a year or 2 later when I moved out for college that my sisters and I both started to rely on livejournal for our life updates. I was very active on livejournal with my online friends who I’ve gotten to know and even met a few of them! I had a graphics journal, collab graphics community and loads of jrock/vk sharing communities. It was an amazing time to meet other vk fans who went to lives and cons.

July 20th, 2006 was the day I felt independent with my own domain. Cat did a great post about her domain birthday so I wanted to do something similar. Five random facts about Honey-Vanity.net

1. The name came from a Kozi song which I still will blast in the car pretending I can sing along to his weird japanese dialect.

2. The domain was bought by Yui for my birthday back in 2006 as a birthday gift to me!

3. This site was mainly used for my collective/portal but converted into my graphics site after I started to pull away from livejournal.

4. In 2008 I made this subdomain and started this blog!! I picked Malice.honey-vanity.net because Malice Mizer was one of the first vk bands I fell in love with when I was in highschool ;o;

5. Never hosted anyone (besides my sisters) until recently – YAY Ginger! XD

What are your domain/subdomain, url stories?!
