Kweh's announcment: I do not own anything Star Wars, and i'm not going to try to...anything that i did not make up belongs to it's respected owner(s). Heck! Even I might already belong to some company...

All about meh
Meh name is Kweh-chan (if you haven't guessed), i'm 15 years old, 1/4 American and 3/4 British (with an accent). I currently live in Colorado Springs with my mother (a teacher) and her boyfriend (a photographer), although i would MUCH rather be living back in England...or Israel. I've travelled much of the world with my mother and father (a diplomat in Milan), and have previously lived in the UK, Belgium, Israel and now the US.

Apart from Star Wars, i enjoy video games (mostly Star Wars, but with some RPGs like Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy), reading, writing, drawing (Star Wars, ofcourse), math, science, philosophy, school, and rubber bands. I have been collecting assorted items since i was very young, including erasers, turtles, pencils, Pokemon (having stayed devoted to the sadly declining Pokemon craze, even to this day), and now more recently Star Wars. I have a modest, yet steadily growing collection of around 200 items (if anyone would like to help me out, it would be much appreciated...currently seeking an AT-AT for under $/£50, if possible).

My Story
I discovered Star Wars at the tender age of 4 and immediatly fell in love with it, resulting in a Christmas of, not dolls and Pound Puppies, but Death Stars and Speederbikes. However, around 8 years old, I began to grow away slightly as the Pokemon craze hit me (I still love Pokemon! ^-^), however that shrunken Star Wars ember was rekindled with the release of Episode I. I know now that I am in the minority, but I love Jar Jar! Come on people, where's your sense of fun?! Unfortunately, this did not last long as my mind had been taken over by Pokemon and video games. A year later came my third move (to Israel!) and with it came my Star Wars addiction. I remember having a marathon of episodes 1,4,5 and 6 in my first half-year there. However, later that year, Episode II came out and as much as I loved it (no, seriously, I really did!) it still did not bring me back. For the next few years, Star Wars was the last thing on my mind as I battled school and mental issues, however i do not believe that it ever left me. I remember, during sixth grade the Clone Wars series came out on TV, and although I did not know who they were, I almost fell in love with Kit Fisto, and looked up to Barriss Offee as a sort of model, AND actually thought San Hill was cool (still do!). Then, my grades went from C's to A's as seventh grade rolled in, and with school issues no longer bothering me, I remember enjoying Star Wars on my portable DVD player as my dad and I drove to Egypt - but I could still only name those whose names were actually spoken. Then came eighth grade: the grandest year of my life. I finally had friends, learned to draw decently, had straight A's...but that is not why it was such a wonderful year. I remember one day in my after-school activity I was waiting for help, so I (not known for patience) went over to a book shelf and that's when it hit me! I saw a Star Wars book (Tales from Jabba's Palace) and read Bib Fortuna's story...and felt the desire to watch Return of the Jedi. And for the first time in over 3 years (sad, i know), I watched it. It later became my favourite movie and fueled my passion for Star Wars...
