- About me:

I've been leading a fairly normal life so far (even though it can get quite filled with troubles at times).

I've been writing ever since I was little. My mom has told more than enough times about when I was little and would write several stories, like one about a boy called Mario who lived in a blue house and bla bla bla. I don't write stories like that anymore, or so I'd like to think, but I never stopped writing. Whatever it was, I think I always managed to write something about anything, be it long (in)complete stories with original characters, or short little drabbles about nothing specific, or even fanfics based on various fandoms. I still have some of those old stories, and it's cool to read them and see in what I got better at, at what I didn't, stuff like that. (Plus, I've always had a really strong imagination. And I had a knack for writing humor back then. I still catch myself laughing at some of the scenes I invented.)

As for reading... Well, I've also been doing it since I was a kid. I grew up surrounded by interesting things to read, be it Turma da Mônica comic books, be it a lot (and when I say a lot, I mean A LOT) of books - or even just the subtitles of the movies and series me and my family used to watch. (I remember watching Stargate SG-1 with my family, and I would always ask "mom, what did he just say?" because I couldn't read fast enough yet.)

People that know me in person keep asking me, ever since I was a kid, how the hell did I learn English so well and so fast. Well, as I mentioned before, I grew up surrounded by all these interesting things to read and watch and play (not to mention the music. My dad was always putting some music on. There's even some pictures of baby-me with giant headphones on my head and chocolate smeared all over my face, listening to whatever he put for me to listen - probably Pink Floyd), and since a part of those things were in English, I was in contact with the language from the beginning. I remember trying to play Age Of Empires but not doing it quite well since it was in English. Or playing SNES with my brother and figuring out the meaning of the words as we played (my brother says the first word in English that he learned was "jump", because of a Donald Duck game).

But my English got significantly better in the past few years, since I started using it on a daily basis, talking with people on fandom, reading a lot of things in English, etc. A thing that annoys or amuses people I'm talking to in person is that, when we're having a conversation in Portuguese, I accidentaly use an expression in English, or end up mixing two words of different languages and confuse myself. (My friend says that my expression when I get confused with what I'm saying is priceless, and my brother's response to when I say something in Portuguese that is obviously a blatant translation from an English expression is "damned English expressions!".)

So, that's pretty much it! If you feel like talking, feel free to PM me or something.

- Fandoms/Ships:

Don't worry, I'm not about to make a huge list of every single TV show, movie, book, etc, I like in here.

Just know something about my TV shows seasons collection: It includes the complete The O.C. series (no, not the fancy collector pack - I wish), the first six Law & Order: SVU seasons, and the first three Charmed seasons (not by lack of trying to buy at least the fourth one as well). I guess that tells ya how varied my taste can be, huh? Seriously, I don't focus on one specific genre of anything, so don't be surprised if you're ever talking about House M.D. with me and suddenly I drop a Charmed joke in the middle of the conversation (which will probably lead to an awkward silence, followed by "you have no idea where that's from, do you?").

As for pairings... I ship everyone with anyone. No, seriously; just ask my friends. There are probably like, two pairings I don't like and that's about it. It can be het, slash, femslash, I don't care. Like I always say, "as long as it's well written...".

For now, though, I'm only posting my Alex/Marissa (The O.C.) and Kurt/Quinn (Glee) fanfics over here. (Don't even get me started on how I fell in love with Kurt/Quinn if you don't want to hear me ramble on and on and on...)
