My AFF Journey

How & When I Came Across AFF

Talking about it, I was searching for SHINee pictures and eventually stumbled on a SHINee fan fiction based Facebook Page. I started reading fan fictions there and checked it every day up for new updates when I saw someone posting a link to another SHINee story which was posted in here. That was around December 2010 I think. I was still pretty new into K-Pop. Well, not really. I've been into it for almost a year by that time. I was a huge Khuntoria shipper back then and a Shawol. As for it I clicked on the link and it led me to that black-white site which is already a part of my life. I didn't create an account at first because I didn't feel like doing so and I've been only using it for reading stories. However I started writing fan fictions as well. My first story was featuring Khuntoria because oh well, I just loved Nichkhun and Victoria on "We Got Married". Haha. I didn't post my stories in here though but on Facebook.

I eventually realized that Facebook wasn't much of a help and made myself an account int here. I started to subscribe to TONS of stories. 99.9...% of my subscriptions were SHINee, B2ST and Teen Top fanfics. As you can see, I was literally obsessed with those three groups.

After some while I saw links on the stories which redirected to reviews and I eventually found it interesting on how their grading systems where built. Some reivewers sounded harsh and just plainly mean with their cussing. Others though sounded like as if they were trying to impress the authors with their kindness and sugar-coated so-called reviews. But still, I found some which I could take as my personal "idols" because they somehow inspired me to become a reviewer as well and this is how my first review shop opened under the name "Sweetest Coffee Reviews".

Uh...yeah. I think that's a bit more information than wanted. Haha. Sorry. ^^"

 

My First Username

bebeth1996. Yes, it's still the same after 4 years. I've been changing it a few times though. Why? I don't know either. I just changed my username back to bebeth1996 because it had more originality and "expresses the real me" or how my friends in here would always tell me. XD

 

Why I Want To Stay

AFF is practically a part of my life. This site inspired me to write stories (even if the aren't original) and I also improved my English a lot although I've been always one of the best students in this subject. Lol. I'm not bragging. I'm only stating the truth. Aside from all of this I've also met a lot of new people in here who eventually share the same interests with me and I'm not that type of person who just leaves someone behind.

Another thing is, I also didn't get inspired to write stories and to review but also to use Photoshop and to code layouts. Haha. Yes, I'm a multitasker. If something gains my attention I won't just let it fall like a hot potato (German phrase). I'll stick to it until I fully get it and probably will also expand my knowledge about it.

 

Some Of My Favorite Things About This Site

The staff members and moderators, the stories, shops, tutorial threads, the people, EVERYTHING. Although some fanfics do in here and that a lot of threads are eventually Roleplays - which annoys me the most; no offend though - I just love it. It's visually very appealing and convenient.

 

A Message To Leave

I would love to thank Jason for creating this site. Seriously, I just love him for it. I don't know how to express myself at the moment. Ugh. Not good. but still, THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Although this site is dedicated to his deceased girlfriend (Sorry for your loss, Jason...), he made people over the whole world a joy. And I don't mean the users only. I bet there are more people who don't have an account but are using this site as well.
