SherlyCumberbatched

Hello everyone! I'm all brand new in this forum. I was browsing the internet at work while I came across it and I had to sign up right away. I've always been one to go online and talk on forums to meet new people and to share the interest we are all here for. I've been a Sherlock Holmes fan since I was a little girl. I was reading Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Study in Scarlett at the age of eight. As I have grown up, I have been trying to open my mind up to try and have a mind just like Sherlock. Not too sure how well that is working except I can now have a mind palace and place things in there that I do need and delete things that I don't. Once I was a senior in high school, I was finally introduced to the BBC Sherlock. I have been watching British TV for awhile, mostly Doctor Who and Top Gear, but I was curious about how they were going to make Sherlock "modern". I was extremely fascinated as soon as the show began and was even more fascinated and in love with the show as it ended. I couldn't believe my eyes as I watched this show modernly tell the story that I read so many years before that. Ever since that first day in mystery class, I have been infatuated with the TV show. I can't stop but find everything and anything to help get through the time until the next seasons come out. While I am on this website, I plan on posting some of my fan fictions and photos I have made over the years. Also, thanks to my curiosity, I wan't to be able to see into the Adler lounge. Being over eighteen has its advantages and I believe being able to get into that woman's lounge will be quite intriguing. (Mainly just because I can't go in is the reason why I has my curiosity on why it is only for the more mature folks.) My real name that any of you can call me by is Desiree. I'm 20 years old living in Rockford, Illinois. Thank you for having me here in the forum!

I'm from the state Illinois in the USA. I became a Sherlock fan while in high school. My mystery class was a semester course and we dedicated the whole semester to Sherlock Holmes and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. When there were days when there wasn't really much to do except a couple worksheets, the teacher would put Sherlock on for us to watch. She even had it playing during the 20 question final. I watched season one and season two in a matter of two weeks. I'm really glad I happened upon this site. It's good to know that not all Sherlock fans are over in the UK. To me, there aren't that many Sherlock fans here in the US or they haven't really heard of it. But, that just might be in my area. :P
