When you became an Ayu fan, what was it like?

[noidea]

This month, around a week ago, was my first ayu-versarry, I have known her since ~July 2008 though. I saw a list of the most expensive PVs of all time and when I noticed there was "some japanese girl" on it I looked the video up. It was fairyland, I liked it, but didn't love it, ripped it and put it on my iPod, overplayed it and forgot about it.
In november that year, I thought about her again, visited a website that let you watch all of her pvs and started from mirrorcle world. It was instant love, within the next minutes and hours I watched most PVs back to MY STORY era, I only liked around a third, downloaded all the songs, overplayed them, downloaded GUILTY album - FELL IN LOVE!
It was the same month I registred in this forum^^
I remember we just got the two PVs for Days and GREEN and were all looking forward to PCDL very much...and that her fall was a giant shock!
