And I hope I make a good one.

My name is Sarah Benton, and I am from Wilmington, NC (though I was born in Raleigh.) Personally, I really kind of like it here. It has a very unique atmosphere…not really a big city but not quite a small town either. It’s a very historical place too, making it very fun to research. The supposedly haunted places are my favorite to look up on when I have the spare time.

I found this place because I thought it’d be pretty cool to find and talk to other GB fans as well as learn how to make my own uniform and [proton pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack).

It’d be hard to explain just everything I like about GB…okay I lied, I’m just too lazy to write down every single detail.

Aside from GB, I really enjoy kaiju films, particularly films from the Godzilla franchise.

I think first impressions are over-rated. Like really, who’s ever prepared to make a good first impression? They can be faked anyway.

I make a really good fourth impression.
