I decided not to write this at first because i may forget a lot of things and no one might read it (OTL) but in the end i still wrote it, heh, i am the queen of indecisiveness. lol. anyway, this might be too long and boring ugh. so here's my AFF Journey..

I first came across to this site because of polyvore where i first used my monicker superstar-k. In polyvore, even though it's a fashion website, we started posting up fanfictions and doing roleplays there, i first started writing there than here on aff. Some of my kpop friends and users there have accounts here on asianfanfics as well, so out of curiousity i tried signing here up as well and hoping i could practice and post my fanfics here.

My first username used here is _playgirlz117, i am a huge fan of after school before (bekah is my bias! ♡) so i used a very fangirly(this is not even a word?) username, playgirls, which is their fandom name. i forgot what the number i used but i am 80% sure it's 117, OTL, but yeah, it's 117 because 11 is my crush's jersey number (he plays the basketball lmao. he's not my crush anymore, my standards became extremely high through the years because of kpop. but let's not get into that. lol) and 7 being the 'lucky' number.

My first fanfic posted here, which is already deleted and i forgot the title, is a fanfic which an oc (i'm pretty sure i used kim shin yeong, the ulzzang) and minwoo from boyfriend, because during the time boyfriend just debuted and minwoo was the first person in kpop history who's younger than me lol. i didn't post any chapters from it and the poster in that story was pretty crappy, i mean, my first poster wasn't even that bad compared to that. well.. that was 2010. sorry if you made that poster, but it's quite true. xD i'm not looking down on that designer okay? but if you can't do a creative graphic, don't accept requests. ;a;

I wasn't a full-time (can i say that? full-time is quite.. idk, anyway..) here on aff, as i prefer on polyvore more than here, since i prefer visual creativity over everything else. lol, i'm more of a visual learner (based on my psychology class. lol) maybe it took me a year to go back here on aff and really write and do this as my hobby, well i really enjoy writing and i have a lot of ideas, but sometimes i hate reading, idk, i am confused with life. lol. i have 4 ongoing chaptered story now (1 is a collab) it's long overdue and i haven't touched it since last year? i think. i really can't write chaptered fanfics, i have no motivation sometimes and that's why i write one-shots/drabbles instead, i've already writen 6 so far.

And because i prefer making graphics and because i'm inspired with making things like polyvore sets, i opened a shop under the name 'superstar-k graphic shop' in January 29th 2012, where i changed my username as well. I didn't expect that people would like my graphics, since i know there are a lot of graphic makers already here, so it was sometimes a shock to me that people want to request for my graphics, omg the feelzzz ♡ anyway, i'm glad that asianfanfics became a pathway for me to improve my graphic making skills and made me learn photoshop, it made me realize what i really like doing.

oh! and can i mention be the next k-idol as well? because that's where i get 60% of my subscribers, it's currently on draft right now because i'm revamping each chapters. anyway, that thread started with the aim to help others who want to be in the kpop industry as well and i want to share the journey with them, i didn't know most people wanted to be singers! now i know that aff is full of talented people. ♡ i remembered one user who commented on btnki, i joined aff because i want to read this thread. it was a bit funny (i find it a bit funny, don't judge lol) but at the same time i was touched because i became a part of the reason why she joined aff.

i can't stop staring at my pioneer badge. ;a; and 1790 subscribers were accumulated throughout my 3 years and 5 months stay here on aff (mostly gained maybe last year? idk), i didn't gain this overnight, that's why i'm kind of proud that people actually take time to subscribe to any of my stories, where at first i was just satisfied on getting 2-3 subscribers and some few comments.

this is getting really long but yeah let me end this by saying asianfanfics is not just a fangirl slash fanfiction community but a community full of dreamers and talents, each of the members here have dreams of being a talented writer, graphic artists and reviewers, or some of us even dreams to be an actor or an actress, a singer or a dancer. aff became a pathway for us to share what we have to people who have common interest without being judge to harshly in each of the society we live in, we go here because maybe no one could relate to us in real life and asianfanfics became a way for us to share happiness and sharing the love we have for a common oppa or maybe this is just a past-time for you, reading fanfictions and spazzing because somehow your ship is kind of real. anyway, whatever that reason is there is something that really connects us here. ♡

i'm really glad i went to aff, i met awesome and talented people, it made me realize my love for graphic designing, it made me learn that always control your emotions for annoying and rude people and it strengthened my love for kpop. ♡ i'm looking forward to many more years with aff (i'm turning 4 here on aff this november. yaaaay!)

HAPPY #5YEARSAFF!
