Ok so this is a partial copy/paste from the facebook group, but wanted to get my name here specifically.
Hello everyone. I decided to take the plunge after attending the panel for celebrations. I currently live in Volo, IL up in Lake County.
I have wanted to get involved with the 501st and the Mandalorian Mercs for years. Long story short (can share more if interested) my depression, anxiety, and body image issues held me back.
Attending celebration and doing cosplay for the first time ever has pushed me to break out of my shell and meet new people.
I have been a fan of star wars since I first saw Empire strikes back during its original release. My favorite movie is rogue one. Favorite character is Coran Horn. I play SWTOR and the table top rpgs.
I'm invested
I am currently on meds for my depression and working out 6 days a week to help with the body image thing. I have wanted to be a death trooper since the moment I saw them on screen.
I don't have a lot of free time, and very little skill. I do however have a lot of disposable income. Will give money.
Looking forward to meeting people and making new friends up here in northern IL.

Re: Hello from Northern IL/NW Chicago burbs
Are there any events coming up that I might be able to attend?
I don't have a costume yet (aside from my home made Jedi) but I would love to meet people
