    Random person tries to awkwardly write an introduction post... and fails

    Welp, welcome to my failure that is this post. I have no clue what to say but I'm a complete newbie. You have been warned.

    I have been really into mermaids/merrow since I was a child as I lived in the biggest fishing village in Northern Ireland. I didn't even have one ounce of a clue that people even dared to call themselves mermaids & mermen, never mind have a full blown community surrounding the idea.

    Ever since I was a child I was drawn to the ocean, I would pretend to swim like a mermaid, dressed like one, spent all my spare time around water and even collected seashells to create little items to sell. It didn't help that my father was a fisherman either. If I had of known that such a beautiful thing really existed in the world I would of jumped into it as soon as possible!

    I feel like it's a little too late now, but maybe not. So yeah, have the ramblings of a lonely Irish girl and her jellyfish plush.

    Welcome to the community.

    Don't feel awkward, everyone here had his/her start somewhere.

    If you have questions, that's what the forums are for, and people will gladly help.

    There is nothing awkward. The sea looks nice at your place

    Welcome!
    Don't worry, you didn't come off as awkward at all. And it's never too late to get started! This is the greatest place to ask questions even if they make you feel like a newb - no one will judge you.
    Can't wait to get to know you better!

    Welcome! I wouldn't say you seem awkward at all, you seem pretty chill and cool. And what a beautiful view of the sea to have!
