germanname's picture
I'm a huge fan of Sonic the Hedgehog. The interest started in July 2001, when I was 11. I did not draw Sonic until I was 12. Over the past 5 years, all of my Sonic drawings grew more and more sophisticated.

If you're asking me why I started my interest in Sonic, it had a few elements. I did not have a Sega Genesis until October 2003, and this was back in July 2001 (read above). I wanted to play this Wheel of Fortune (I flippin' love that show) game for the Genesis, even though now it doesn't look any more sophisticated than the new Computer stuff to me. I go to my cousin, and he gives me his Genesis for a while. He also gives me his game collection for the Genesis. Two of the games were Sonic 2, and Sonic & Knuckles. I really liked them. That was when my interest, soon to become a huge love, began.

For those who wonder why I named myself germanname, it's because my last name is German. Since its spelled GENAME, many pronounced it juh-name, but it's actually pronounced gah-name under German standards. My ancestors arrived at the US shortly after the Civil War ended, and I have never been outside the US. My online name actually was the result of an accident. I received this writing award in 2003, and not only my name was misprounced, it was spelled GERNAME. In 2005, I remembered that accident and also learned my last name was German (a GErman NAME). It was originnaly spelled with one N, but many sites already had a germaname user, so I added another N. If germanname was also taken on a site (which happened when I registered for YouTube), I added my birth year of 1990 at the end of it. The rest is history.

germannameIt's okay. It could be better. Good news is a pic of Amy I uploaded to a VGGTS World group a couple weeks ago finally landed on the site itself.

Bad news, however, is that my computer's hard drive broke down early Monday morning, and I sent it over to Geek Squad later that day. They're trying to recover some data from it that's very important to me. I'm using my dad's computer to type this. Whether or not Geek Squad recovers the data, I'm still getting my computer back, and I'm also planning to buy another computer soon.

germannameI don't mind you laughing. That tells me you're pretty darn confident and in good spirits with those guys. Even so, I get worried very easily. You'll never know until the results come back.

Despite all of that, I really have no choice but to thank you for giving me some strong hope there. I need it. ^v^ Thank you.

germannameWell, I got bad news for you. They were unable to do it, and I'm just having a horrible time right now, but I want to thank you again for the encouragement. I wonder if it's better to have encouragement smashed to pieces than to not have it at all.
