hello friends!

Jun 6, 2021

    1. Hi, I’m Aiwa. What’s your favorite dinner food? (If you know you know lol)

      A little late for introductions since I’m usually pretty shy but here I am! Better late than ever!
      Nice to meet you all! My name is Aiwa and my pronouns are they/them.

      I’ve had an interested in bjd ever since I was a teen and lurked the site here and there throughout the years but finally just jumped in! Am I having a mid life crisis and indulging in my teenage self? Probably!! I know it would probably be impossible to find the doll 15 yo me fell in love with but I already have a doll in mind! So I figured it’s about time I actually get into the community, and do some learning!

      A little about me, I’m from SoCal! I have lots of hobbies including drawing, cosplay, video games, and dolls in general (I own quite a few off topic dolls). I’m also a pet parent with a sassy little bunny and a huge teddy bear of a dog!
      I’m usually very shy but I am trying to be more social and make new friends in the community and in general, as many irl don’t really care for bjds :c
      so I hope we can be friends! I will do my best to be active here and show others support!

    2. I also wanted to add, the excuse for I’m telling myself for buying a doll is
      “I’ll use her as a pose reference when drawing!”
      knowing full well I will not....lmao
