Brand new!

[theshyfox]

Hello all!

Firstly, I want to say that I've been bitten by the mer-bug! My husband was laughing at me today, because I put together a five year plan to become a mermaid. :)

I'm a 27 year old receptionist at a veterinary clinic, and costuming in my passion. There is hardly a weekend that goes by that I'm not in some sort of costume at some event or other!

I have been lurking, and reading through the forums for a couple of weeks, and I can't wait to get started on this new adventure. I will be starting with a mono-fin first to see if this is something that I can physically do. I've never been much of a strong swimmer, but I intend to change that. Hence the five year plan: I know that swimming effortlessly in the silicone tail is not something that will happen for me over night, and I want to make sure its something that I think through before jumping in tail first!

I love all of the wealth of information that you all have taken the time to bring to one central location. Its wonderful to have so much advice going into this, even without having personally spoken to any of you.

Thank you all. I am looking forward to making new friends in this community!

Yay for costuming! Though when your costumes are your passion you often feel more at home in them than in "normal" clothes, so which is the real "costume?" Haha!

Love that you made a 5 year plan! But you can become a mermaid right away with an affordable fabric tail, I got my first for Christmas and it's so fun, if not as fancy. But it's very convenient to take around with you and to slip on and off so I end up wearing it quite often!

[theshyfox]

Definitely going to be upgrading to a fabric tail, once I'm past the mono fin part of my plan. I do have it in my plan that if I end up able to swim with the mono fin quickly, that the fabric tail will be "bumped" up on the time line. :)

Hah! I do feel more myself in my costumes. Regular clothes are so boring ;)

Hello and welcome

[MermaidRachelNola]

Hurray!!! Welcome to the water! ;)

[Mermaid Arabella]

Welcome! And YAY, another costumer!! I wish I was at a con/event most weekends, but my pocketbook can't handle it :T

[Saelyyia]

Welcome to the community ShyFox so glad to see another costuming enthusiast here in the water! And I think your 5 year plan is great. I did something similar a few years back to start planning for my own mermaid adventure. It must be the receptionist part of us (I am also one).

[theshyfox]

Yay receptionists! The unassuming bureaucrats! :) I just knew that the vision in my head wasn't going to happen out right, and that it would take a lot of planning (and SAVING!) to make it happen. So at the same time as I was making my five year plan for my career, I made one for mermaiding too. The ultimate goal would be to be in upper management on the admin side of veterinary medicine by day, and by night be a professional mermaid. Gotta aim high!
