Right.... So, A Little About Me
My name is Kim, and I'm a dirty bitch. Hahahahaha...
I am a recent devotee to not only Barça, but to the game of football in general. Being an American, I hadn't grown up with much exposure to soccer (word cringe), and was pretty blasé about sports as a whole. That was until the World Cup 2010, when the US team was doing well enough for people like me to take notice.
I found myself enjoying the hell out of the sport. I watched as many matches as I could, amazed by the skill of players like Diego Forlán and Alexandros Tzorvas. But then everything changed when I first saw a little phenom named Lionel Messi. That was the first time I'd ever experienced The Beautiful Game. I was hooked.
My love for Messi blossomed into a passionate appreciation and respect for FC Barcelona. And David Villa. And Xavi. And all of them! Slowly the fangirl was awakening in me. Oh dear.
It wasn't long before the fangirl was joined by her evil twin, the perv-girl. Having cut my slashy chops in the Mighty Boosh fandom (I'm otherbitch over there), I started querying the net about Messi slashfiction. I was led to the Not Just A Game archive, and finally to footballslash. The rest is history, baby!
So slowly but surely, I'm familiarizing myself with these communities. I've been reading a lot of the AMAZING fic from all the unbelievably talented writers. I'm trying to leave comments as often as possible, but often, when I'm using my piece-of-shit phone, that's not possible.
Anyhoo, that's a bit about me.
