Hello everyone.

[finetruth]

I'll try to be fairly interesting. I am 19 years old, currently living in the friendly city of Salt Lake City, a stark contrast to my hometown of Whittier, California. I was brought to Utah by my parents at the age of 14, much to my displeasure even to this day. But it was because of this move that I made friends with a few classmates who share my interests in music, anime, pop culture, technology, linguistics, and politics.

They eventually got me to overcome my skepticism and watch one episode of "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic." After watching "Hearth's Warming Eve," I began entranced in the world and wanted to learn more of Equestria. Though my interest waned a little when the parts I liked disappeared, the Flim Flam Brothers brought me back when their beautiful machine and the possibilities that it could be mean for the technological progression of the nation as a whole. Unfortunately, like the interracial politics, they too disappeared, never to be seen again. Even so, I found myself captivated by the characters and the world and the cheerful, optimistic tone of the show. It was something lighthearted, something fun. It was just a little something that brighten my life up a bit.

Well, that pretty much how I got involved in all this. Here are some responses to those one questions, for those who are interested.

Spoiler

How old are you? 19 years old
 
Where do you live? State, Country? Salt Lake City, Utah.

Do you work or attend school? Profession or major? I work as a Machine Operator. College is a bit out of my reach.

Who are the important people in your life? My brother for being supportive. My friends for buying the merchandise for me.

How long have you been collecting? Maybe for about 3 months now?

Which generations of ponies do you collect? G1, G2, G3 or G4?  I'll probably earn some ire for this, but just G4.

What made you want to collect ponies? I honestly do not know.

Tell us about your collection! It's not much. Mostly cards, blind bags, anything that is easily concealable and hidden.

Hi finetruth

It's great you discovered FiM and got interested in ponies.  A lot of us here only collect one or two generations so don't feel you are alone.

Hello and welcome 

[Diamond]

and welcome to the Arena.  I am sorry you have to hide your collection.  Though the blind bags are so cute, must be hard to keep em hidden.

Welcome, we have fans of all generations here so I am sure you will find some other g4 fans.
