How To Be A Fangirl By: Heaven Hollingshead Certified Fangirl
What Exactly is a fangirl? • (Fan*Gurl) noun: A fan of a TV show, video game, actor/actress, famous person, book series, anime, band, or movie. Usually portrayed by excessive squealing whenever anything coming from that thing is exposed; obsessive buying of merchandise from that thing; and overall irrationality when the subject is brought up. Spends LOTS of time on Tumblr or fanfiction sites. And lives off of chocolate, crisps, fish fingers and custard, jammie dodgers, feels, and a lack of air. • (Fan*Gurl) adj: A girl/boy that has devoted shrines in their closet and candlelight ceremonies to the worship of their favourite anime character, actor, band, singer, fictional character or popular person.
