Dear NCIS Los Angeles,

I remember as if it was yesterday when your mother introduced us over six years ago… you immediately became a big part of my life… soon you were my new love, my new joy, my new ‘purpose’…

Over the years our relationship grew stronger because you managed to make me better… you gave me new things to learn, new adventures to pass and new people to meet.
Especially for the latter I will always be grateful for, cherish you and love you for !!

You were a steady part of my life… your characters became a part of my family… I laughed with them, I cried with them, I longed with them and I feared for them… this went on for quite some time – and boy did we have a blast together !!

But then something changed – I started loosing interest… At first I didn’t wanted to admit it and tried to ignore my new feelings… Afterall you had done nothing wrong – How heartless was I to abandon you after all this time ??

I’m writing these lines to let you know that I cannot ignore my feelings any longer… it wouldn’t be fair to both of us… I need to move on… Believe me, it’s not you – it’s me !! I can’t appreciate you any longer like you deserve to be appreciated…

Like I said, I will always be grateful for the time we had together and I am happy to know there are people out there who still love you like I once did.

Wishing you all the best for a hopefully long future !!

Love always,
sindee

Personal Note

Dear Readers,

six years ago I started this little blog called “NCISLA Fan Blog”…

After several years in other fandoms being a fan, learning how fandoms tick and having fun being involved in fansites for other shows I felt that this new show ‘NCISLA’ was worth setting it up.

And boy was I right…

I had soooo much fun with this new show and the blog – posting infos, making fanart, coming up with games, looking for stuff that nobody else had on their sites (locations especially…).

The little blog grew to a reasonable go-to site for the NCISLA fandom over the years and I was a happy camper. When we decided to switch the ‘fan blog’ into the more professional looking ‘NCISLA Magazine’ in 2012 I had an awesome team of people around me helping me working on the content. We grew even more with our guest star interviews, original columns and repeated acknowledgement by the cast and crew of the show. It was a dream come true !!

As more seasons went by the dream became a ‘nightmare’…

Because you know what ? I’m ‘just a fan’…
I’m a Callen Girl !! I love the Callen & Sam Bromance and the action an the show !! I think Deeks is underrated, am not sure about Kensi’s behaviour at the moment and I tolerate Densi… I like Eric’s ‘pants theme’ and Neric but liked Nell better with the shorter hair… I love to ‘hate’ Granger and would love to have a tea with Hetty and chat about some of her decisions…

But I put too much pressure on myself being the ‘overall satifisfying online platform for NCISLAFamilia’ – trying to be political correct at all times, posting something for every character / aspect of the show and with that the fun went down the drain. Posting stuff became a burden…

So with the definite decision to close down the NCISLA Magazine after my return I went on vacation and to the NCISLAFamilia Meet-Up in Los Angeles.

But NCISLAFamilia rocked my world !!

To meet other people who are so passionate about the show revived my own passion and after giving it some more thoughts I decided to keep the site – but give it a little more of my personal touch back…

So fair warning: marked with sindee’s sentiment there might be some speculating, squeeing, swooning or ranting in my future posts… And you are invited to share your thoughts about my posts just as passionate as you are doing already… I love to have a good convo about my favorite show !!

OK, enough the words… I just wanted to give you the background on why the site was so ‘behind’ the last weeks and what’s to come in the future. I would love to have you all as my readers for many many seasons to come !!

#MuchLove #NCISLAFamilia !! 🙂

NCISLA Magazine Goes On Hiatus !!

brand_500
Dear Readers,

Another season of NCIS Los Angeles has flown by…
While the Cast & Crew are on hiatus and recharging their batteries for Season Seven we’re doing just the same.

During the month of June NCISLA Magazine will go on hiatus.

At least in the foreground that is. In the background we’re prepping our “comeback” in July. Lots of ideas run through our minds: #FanFicChallenge #150Countdown #HettysCloset #TopMoments #BestFriendsFundraiser

While the website won’t be updated for a few weeks you can still ‘talk NCISLA’ with us and other fans on Twitter, in our Facebook group or via email sindee@ncislamagazine.com.

Have a great summer #NCISLAFamilia and see you back here in July !!
