About Me

My name is Pamela and I`m a 25 year old girl from Zagreb, Croatia.. I am a creative and passionate kinda girl, about anything i find worth spending time on..

I can also be rather energetic, stubborn but very loving, positive and friendly by nature.. I always trust people, up till the point I loose the reasons to trust them..

I love to write snail mail and i think that not that many feelings can beat the receiving of big, fat, personalized letter addressed to you.. Makes my heart skip a beat..

Favorite Crafts

I love to make jewelry, and i believe i am kinda good at it.. I make the jewelry that you would go and purchase in a store too.. I am most famous for my charm bracelets.. :)

I love cooking/ baking and i love for my baked goodies to taste AND look delicious.. one without the other just doesnt work for me..

I am also starting to get into sewing, but dont yet know much about how-to.. :P I love the idea of once being able to sew my own clothes..

Favorite swapping items

I LOVE TO GET IN A SWAP:

make up * tea * baking supplies / cupcake making material (candy melts, molds, edible ink pens, food coloring, sprinkles, liners..) * candy from your country (hard candy, caramels, gummy..)* unique recipes * food seasonings and spices * nail polish * bath & body things * scented candles * charms for jewelry (esp. anything "dance" themed) * Paul Frank items * colored pens *mixed music CDs * fashion magazines /clip outs * chick-lit paperback books *

(Call me a girlie girl, but what can i do.. I am one!)

I am also really looking for an A4 hardcover spiral notebook (stripes, not squares).. If you would wish to do a private swap, being able to find this one, i would be crazy happy..

MY FAVORITE COLORS: mint green * melon/yellow * navy blue * baby blue * turquoise * coral/peach * lavender * soft pink * white

MY FAVORITE FLAVOURS/SCENTS: mint, melon, cherry, raspberry, candy (marshmallow, candy cane, cotton candy..), soft vanilla, anything fresh and citrusy..

My dislikes in swaps

I DO NOT SWAP:

*postcards * ATCs * FBs * decos * slams * label bags * scrapbooking items * embelishments *.. (i can send them to you, but I do not collect or swap them any more)

I don't know how to make zines, don't really do the scrap booking, don't collect dolls, stuffies, inchies, ATCs or cartoon characters of any kind..

As for some general dislikes.. here are a few random ones

I DON`T like:

birds (they freak me out) * colors red, orange, brown (esp. mixed together) * kiwi * SF movies * manga * over-spicy/too sweet food * lip pencils * cold weather * roses * coffee * cigarettes .. haha, pretty random, i know..

Alergic to: fresh kiwi, almond oil (in cremes), hairy pets (cats, dogs..) ..

My swapping habits

I do NOT flake. I do not sign up if i think i could not afford the swap and not making the exact dates happens as rare as possible.

When it comes to some more expensive/bigger swaps, i often contact my swapping partner for some possible questions.. By request, i can even post a photo of your swap before sending it out.. I really like to hear from my partner in return too, just to feel a bit safer about the swap.

I send my packages out as soon as i get everything together, which is usually much closer to sign-up deadline than the send-out deadline. In return, i appreciate the same treatment.

I also rate usually the very day i receive your package and i heart pretty much every package that was fast, neat and with an obvious thought put into it. It doesnt have to be my ideal match, and the extras are really your own choice. Its a thought that counts!

Bigger swaps i have so far been flaked upon:

Response: i noticed that my other partner, also from the US also still didnt get hers. I totally understand, but i am pretty sure it will arrive soon. It has been mailed about a week before i marked it sent in fact.

Comment: I've never seen the show Glee but I've heard great things about it. I LOVED your posts...especially the All American Rejects (gives you hell) one. I also really liked your guilty pleasure Neda Ukraden... Have you ever listened to the Chicago soundtrack (the one with Catherine Zeta Jones?) It reminds me of you Glee choices...you might like it. ;o) Thanks again!!
Response: hahaha.. yes, i know.. its totally broadway kind of music, though rock songs turned into broadway.. :D I guess thats my "thing".. SO glad you loved it!!! :P
