Name of Fangirl: Sophia
Fangirl’s School Grade: 6th
What is her Fangirl interest?
Doctor Who (a LOT) and Star Trek!
Why did you decide to shine the spotlight on this Fangirl?
When Sophia was little, she would wait for the TARDIS to show up on our lawn. She was so caught up in #10 that she was him for Halloween :-). This last April, she had the time of her life visiting the Doctor Who experience and Cardiff–it was better than Christmas for her! Mainly, though, her dad and I are proud that she tries to emulate the Doctor by being a kind and tolerant girl.
How does this Fangirl express her fandom?
Sophia has seen and can discuss just about any episode, from those that ran fifty years ago to those that are running today. She writes fan fiction and reads novelizations and comics based on the show. Her room is like a shrine to the Doctor, with her life-sized stand-up of #10 being her most prized possession. She has also converted much of her class, making many of them Whovians, too!
What is her favorite quote or personal motto?
She LOVES “Allons-y!”
What is her favorite Fangirl item that she cannot live without?
It’s a toss up between her two sonic screwdrivers (10 and 11’s) and her cardboard cut-out of 10!
