Hello, hello! My name is Gilly and I am really excited to be here on MLPArena! I'm a 20-year-old college student studying Journalism, and I just started collecting G1s very recently. I've been a pony fan off and on for years (loved G3s when I was little, then got into G4s in middle school... and now here I am...)
I started after a good friend of mine got the 35th Anniversary Minty and showed her to me. I was in love! I wasn't too familiar with G1s up to that point but I just loved how cute and chubby and colorful she was. So, for Christmas, that same friend got me three ponies (A vintage Surprise and Seashell, as well as a 35th Anniversary Minty of my very own). And I just got the bug!
My collection is very small at this point (just five ponies!) but I'm looking forward to growing it in the future. I've been looking for a good place to learn more about the hobby and find people to connect with over it.
Anyway, I'm excited to explore this new hobby of mine further and get to know everyone here. It's wonderful to meet you all!
