Default Hello Everyone!

Hello there! I just found this website today and i'm pumped to explore it! But here's a little about me:
First off, my name is Andrew. I've always been interested in magic since i was about 8. But because i could only perform for my family who wasn't very supportive (Understandable, I wasn't very good!) I quit. I recently picked up Card magic May of this year (9 Years since i quit) And practiced about 3 hours a day, sometimes more, everyday throughout the summer. I have fallen in love with magic and plan on doing it for the rest of my life. If you want to get to know me more, you can message me, comment on here, or find me on youtube and check out a little of my magic that i have posted up. ( http://www.youtube.com/user/TheMagic...n?feature=mhee ) Thanks for taking your time to read this!
~ Andrew

Welcome to our forums Andrew! Looks like you have quite the number of videos! Magic is a great passion to pursue in life and you should continue to follow it!

Hi Andrew! Welcome to MTG.

I'm sure you will enjoy your stay here so feel free to share your magic with us any time. Just make sure to be careful not to put any possible magic exposure

Indeed! I wish I had not quit when I was 8 because then I could be like Kelan (Who is 4 years younger than me and is way better!) But if I stick with magic from here on out, who knows? Maybe someday I'll be a decent magician :P

A tip.. Get an AVERAGE webcam.. Not a good one. The lower frame rate will make your pass look incredible after just minimal practice! Forget the "real world", welcome to the new millennium!

I knew you wouldn't let me down Trav!
