I think being a fangirl was one of my talent hahaha because I have been able to withstand anything. I have been a self proclaimed ACTIVE fangirl since 2009 it has been over a decade so I though maybe I can list all the artist that I have supported throughout the years (I am a fan of a lot but I will only list those artist that I have an active participation to):
1. AJ Perez (PH : 2009) - as far as I can remember he is the one whom I really thought of liking, because of his handsome face and acting who will not like him. So imagine my reaction when I heard he passed away, I am clearly shocked as when I woke up my cousins told me about it with the phrase 'di ba siya yung gusto mo'. After that I remember following all the news and even her gf then on any updates. I wanted to visit his funeral that time but I can't coz my parents won't allow me. Fun fact : I never stopped following AJ's twitter until now.
2. Melai and Jason Francisco (PH : 2009) - They are the reason I was hooked with Pinoy Big Brother before. Their uncanny lovestory made my heart giddy back then. I remember creating a PEX (Pinoy Exchange) account just to chat with my fellow fans, even though I am just in high school.
3. Ivan Dorschner and Fritzie Bercede (PH : 2010) - Just like MelAson, this hype was caused by PBB as I am already in PEX looking for this threads are easy already. I made a lot of things for them and I even sew their couple name (VanZie)
4. Mario Maurer and Baifern Pimchanok (TH : 2010) - As I can say the first foreign act I put as my profile picture. I am already unto KDrama that time but they just passed by. This love team made me feel happiness. They reason why I knew them because my 4th year High School adviser made us watch Crazy Little Thing Called love and just like that I was hooked. Even time have passed I still love and follow them on their sns. And that one time they visited Manila I waited for hours just so I can see them upclose (I am in the barricade). Especially now they will be back together made me happier and excited.
5. Jhake Vargas and Bea Binene (PH : 2011) - One of the most unforgettable artist for me. As I always say , I may not be able to stay but they always have a special part in my heart. Because of them FIRST TIME in my life I am not treated just a fan but also a friend. The feeling for the first time the artist knows ypu in person and never forget you. I am thankful for them as this was the time I was full on fangirl. I learn to go out because of tapings and mallshows. I learn how to organize events as I was an active part of the fanbase. I also knew the local stations here how they operate a show and treat artist. These two brought happiness toy freshman years and I am grateful for them, I am always here watching them grow and I was happy and proud.
6. Demi Lovato (US : 2011) - This was the time I was so into the Disney shows and this girl caught my attention because of her vocal prowess and her chemistry with Sterling Knight made me swoon. Because of her I experienced my first ever concert. My active days with her was short but I never stop looking forward to her works and continue to listen to her songs.
7. Ella Cruz (PH : 2012) - Liking her came as a surprise, to be honest at first I was just curious to see her because of Aryana (drama) that I enjoyed. So I tag along with my friends and met her after that when she welcomed us with open arms. We decided we should support her as she is an amazing actress and a humble person. I am proud to say that I saw her when she was still a teenager and saw her grow into this wonderful woman she is today. Until now I am still part of Ellamazing and do not regret every second of it. Because her and her family didn't just treat us as fans but also as a friend and family. She even is very supportive of my K(everything) addiction. What more can I ask for an artist, right?
8. Girls Generation (KR : 2012) - After the constant push of my friend to watch their performances and even reality show, I finally gave in to the trap. I think I made a decision after I watched Hush Hush by Taeyeon. I said this group has talent and they are very new to me. My active days for them might be a brief moment but they are still a very dear to my heart and still follow their releases. I even made effort to see Sooyoung (my bias) when I visited Korea last year. They are still I can proudly say, my best girl group.
9. Henry (KR : 2013) - This is the first guy I called ny husband, because I was into support ships or girls this is a step up. Because of the bubble of SM Family, I got to know Super Junior but instead of liking the principal members this guy caught my attention. Because he can speak so many language, can play different instruments, can sing and dance at the same time, a composer, a cook, an actor, a comedian and a sweetheart. I have never seen a guy like that before that is why I was head over heels for him. Right now, I still follow his activities and even watched his vlogs. I may just be a quiet supporter but I still cherish this man. I can and will never forget.
10. BTS (KR : 2014) - It is already very visible that I really like BTS. I joined a lot of fanclub activities even hosted and volunteer on events. More over out of all of the artist I liked they are the longest I have been very active to, for foreign artist. But this is the group I am the most dedicated to. And to be honest, I already gave myself the ultimatum that they will be the last artist I will support like this, and will not add anymore because when the time comes I already want to focus on myself. This group for me is one for the books.
