Fandom School

This is inspired by a post I saw on Google plus imagining a fandom school exists. I decided to flesh out the idea a little more and make a blog post about it. 

Fandom High
A safe learning haven for all fangirls and fanboys

Classes Include:
Canon: what it is, how to understand it, and when to ignore it in favor of your own idea. 
Shipping: how to pair two characters realistically
Fanfiction writing: the art of writing stuff that never happened to characters who don't exist
Invention: create a time machine, a machine to make fictional characters real, etc. Anything goes. 
Abbreviations: learn "otp", "gpoy", "feels", "I can't even", and much more!

Lunch includes themed meals, with a new fandom each week!

Each fandom has a hallway dedicated to it. Immerse yourself in the wonder of the Doctor Who hallway, but watch out when you walk through the Hunger Games hallway. 

If you work really hard, you may be awarded "Fan of the Year". This lucky student gets to meet his/her favorite actor. 

Actors/writers/producers of the various fandoms will make random appearances and/or occasionally give speeches. Don't skip school, or you might miss them!



An application form for the school might look something like this:

Name:
Age:
Grade:
Gender:
Magic/Muggle:
Species:
Home planet:
District:
Hero/villain/sidekick:
Fandoms (check all that apply)*:
Main fandom (check only one)*:
Favorite actor:
Favorite book:
Favorite movie:
Favorite TV show:
If you could visit any place in the fictional universe, where would it be?
Finally, tell us why you are an eternal diehard fangirl/fanboy and deserve to go to this school. 

I would love to go to this school! If only it existed. 

* I'm not going to post all the fandoms here because that would be too long of a list and I'd inevitably leave some out.
