How does this Fangirl express her fandom?
First, we were raised on Star Wars. Along with the movies, she would read Expanded Universe Novels, The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings to us before bed each night. We all had lightsabers before we could walk. She loves attending Conventions. Comic-Con Intl. is her favorite. She started taking us once we turned 4. She belongs to fan clubs and takes us to line parties and midnight showings. She loves Disney and enjoys taking us to Disneyland as much as possible. She also incorporates her geekiness into our family travel. We’ve taken road trips to movie locations, such as the Redwood Forest where scenes from ROTJ were shot and to Lucasfilm to visit the Yoda Fountain, just to name a couple.
