Hi Guys

Today I have decided to make a formal confession to my Star Wars Buddies. I assure that what you are about to read is quite shocking but im sure you will understand.

The Beginning
You see I have not always been a Star Wars Fan!!!!!. My Normal day to day life was in fact turned around in December 2004. It was a standard Christmas. I had asked for a PS2 and some games like Prince of Persia...etc. I had a happy christmas. Yet later on, on Boxing day I visited my cousin who in his own right has been collecting starwars TOYS since I can remember. He has everything from a toy death Star which opens up to become a mini world to a X-Wing Starfighter with a Luke Skywalker Pilot figure. I myself had nothing but a toy millenuim falcon which you can open up and play in its interior with small plastic figures and the video orginal trilogy boxset. yet late on in January my life suddenly changed!!!

The Dawning of TheBothanBoy
Star Wars Revenge of the Sith due out on the 19th May!!!!!! Everywhere I went these posters were pinned up. Some say, The Saga is complete, Some say Every End has a begining and some just said. The Final movie is here...Praise the lord. Some how this got me all pumped up and exited and for some reason I went in my Local DVD shop to buy Episodes 1 and 2. When i got home I rushed to the DVD player and immidiatly watched the Movies(I had watched them before in cinema but had never had the urge to watch them again). I watched the movies again and again playing the Original trilogy after episode 2 and before I knew it I was booking advanced tickets to watch the premiere in my local town.

When I arrived at the Cinema I took my seat in the centre and waited for the begining of the movie. And do you know what finally brought me into the World of Star Wars. John williams!!!!! You know just before the Film Starts John Williams Star Wars main Theme roars out of the speakers and a short prologue of what of just happened travels up the screen, well that was what done it for me. My Jaw literally dropped aswell as my popcorn and for the rest of the movie my eyes never left the screen.

Star Wars fanatic "TheBothanBoy" Was Born"

Living with Star Wars
Since the movie I had begun going on Lucasarts forums and SW forums and Blogs(as non-member) Before I knew it I knew almost evrything about the Prequel Trilogy.......then a couple of days later I knew virtually everything about the original films aswell. my life carried on with Star War by my side. I would Constantly play the games like KOTOR 1-2, BF1-2...etc and I would browse the internet for hours on end looking for starwars sites, quizzes, forums.

At this moment in time I have Episodes 1-6 on DvD including Clone Wars series 1-2, i have A Dozen or so Star Wars novels and 4 or 5 Visual Directorys and guides aswell as SW games, Novelty SW toys, poster, slippers, alarm clock........phew

The Blogs
After almost 6 months or so of non member forums I decided to join Hyperspace. In one word I would describe the fan club. Phenominal!!!!!!!!!
Ever since April I have been blogging now, I have been able to express my feelings and knowledge, I've shared experiences and given you some good fun blogs. But now I mu.....(I shall stop there because this is turning into a "leaving Speech")

So there you go, you know the facts, the truth about me and my run up into the star wars universe. Please shre your thoughts and your own experiences here

thank you for reading MTFBWY
