Long introduction, heh

[Sukeile]

I was so eager while waiting for my approval letter that I ended up writing my introduction beforehand and it turned out quite long
 And so is this explaination, I'm noticing, (ack!) hope I'm not bothering anyone...Anyway, here goes;
 
 
 Hello all lovely pony people! 

My name is Maja Sukeile K. and I am a 23 year old pony-dork from Sweden    I live together with my husband-to-be and our dog Nalle who is a Hungarian Pumi.   I work as a freelance illustrator but I also make and sell felted puppets/plushies on the side.
 (You can see some of my stuff here: http://sukeile.deviantart.com/ ) 

As long as I can remember I have loved 'My Little Ponies'. My Parents gave me a couple of MLP toys as a child that I loved more than any other toy and as soon as I was 12 years old and got my own allowance I began searching for new ones in thrift shops or second hand stores.  No matter how bad of a shape they were in, I wanted them and tried my best to take the tangles out of their hair, remove marker lines and patch them up. Even if some were in too rough a shape to fix, I was still proud to display them with the rest of my ponies. 

When my friends grew out of their pony obsessions I clung onto it, but noone took me seriously when I wished for Pony toys and sparkly stickers for all my birthdays, haha They'd laugh and say "Sure."  And then end up giving me something more 'proper for my age' 

Then I met George, who collects Hasbro Transformers himself, and when he gave me G3 Royal Ribbon for my birthday I knew he was the guy for me (Obviously not the only reason, but it proved that he knew and understood me    )  I love all the MLPs from any generation and I hope to take part in this friendly and kind community!

Welcome to the Arena!  Your avatar is really pretty btw.  I was looking at another thread when I noticed it in your post.

I can SO relate to this!  I remember when I was about 13 or so all I wanted for Christmas was Gusty.  Mum obviously thought I already had enough ponies though because I swear I go everything BUT the pony I so desperately wanted.  Lol, isn't it great we are now old enough to buy all of the ponies we ever wanted!!!

Thank you for liking my avatar, I had forgotten how much fun ponies are to draw. They were pretty much the only thing that I used to draw as a kid visitors can't see pics , please register or login
   And yes! Being in charge of your own money is awesome! Now if only those pesky bills and the need of food and electricity would go away so we can spend it all on what is most important!  visitors can't see pics , please register or login
