EmRay Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Hi all! I've been lurking and occasionally posting over the last few months, and just realised I haven't actually introduced myself My name's Emily, I'm in my 30s and live with my partner just outside London. I work full time as a writer at a charity and am very much into travel, orange cats and reading! I was really into Mika's music when I was a teen and then sort of drifted out of the loop as I went off to uni and had a few big life changes. Over the last few years I've fully been embracing the music of my youth(!!) and rediscovering the songs and artists I used to love!! After realising I'd missed out on a huge back catalogue of Mika's music, I've been fully kicking myself - I've thrown myself into multiple gigs (s/o to my partner for travelling to Madrid last year for BRAVA and standing in the crowd for 9 hours to get a good spot ). Looking forward to chatting with you all and seeing you at upcoming shows!! 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linzijay Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Hi @EmRay, nice to meet you I'm glad to hear you've rediscovered Mika. As someone who only recently discovered him, I can definitely relate to the "missing out" feeling. I hope you enjoy the MFC! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinyLove_CJ Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Hi @EmRay You'll probably find that there's a whole lot more of Mika goodness to discover here too! Always love it when partners get dragged into the Mika world too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arianne921 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Hello @EmRay and welcome to the MFC! I'm happy you were able to rediscover the music of Mika in these years! Oh...your partner has waited with you 9 hours for a gig! I think your partner will also soon be drawn into the world of Mika! Being able to share own interests with someone is always beautiful! I hope you will have fun in MFC and...see you around! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @EmRay and welcome to the MFC I know what's that. I've spent 13 hours queuing to be in front of the stage. But it was worth it Take a look at this thread and enjoy the forum! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fab to meet you I loved Hong Kong when I visited many moons ago! I'm returning to Asia this November with a trip to Japan - I'm so excited, have wanted to go for decades!! I will forgive you for liking dogs more than cats to be honest, I love dogs almost as much as I love cats...cats just suit our lifestyle more at the moment! I hope to one day have a dog (as well as multiple cats ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have planned to learn a bit Japanese which I felt a bit regret that didn't learn it before and do u have any tips on how to easily pick up the base of Japanese?😁 I'm a Japanese, was born in Japan. I will undoubtedly spend the rest of my life ( hope live long ). Watch Japanese movies ( TV drama ) and ANIME with subtitles. It will help you understand the vocabulary and pronunciation of the language better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
