Who am I?

I am just a college student whose trying to find a major that I care for while trying to maintain and form friendships.

Someone who all too often loses track of time when engaged in drawing or any other sort of craft for that matter

Someone who wants to be able to travel to numerous countries and speak multiple languages, but sadly, only knows English. But not for long, at least, as long as I continue with my awesome Japanese classes.

Someone who, and I honestly mean this, would literally squeal at the sight of an adorably wrapped package/box. And yes, this has definitely happened before.

Someone who needs to spend much less time browsing through the internet trying to find pretty pictures or lurking through forums. Thankfully, my habit of lurking through forums has dwindled quite a bit over the past few months.

Favorite Crafts

  • Drawing: I usually draw something anime or manga like, but I also enjoy drawing flowers. I like using color pencils even though I usually ruin my drawings after coloring them in.

  • Cardmaking: I just enjoy looking at pretty cards and thought it might be fun for me to make some myself. I'm not that good, but it's fun going through a bunch of patterned paper and trying to figure out what to make

  • ATCs: I first started making ATCs when I first joined swapbot. It actually didn't seem that appealing at first, but after my first ones I really like it now.

  • Crochet: I actually barely started learning crochet, but I'm liking it so far. My goal is to be able to make amigurumis. But right now, I'm just aiming for basics.

  • Stamp Carving: I just started this new craft and am currently addicted. It's just so much fun.

My Wishlist

❤ Lettersets that feature kawaii characters, Amy & Tim, Happy go Lucky, Winnie the Pooh, Victorian images

❤ Handmade crafts such as bookmarks, greeting cards, ATCs, matchboxes, envelopes, and amigurumis, zipper pouches

❤ Drawings or sketches that feature something retro, anime or manga-like, kawaii, cartoonish

❤ Scrapbook materials such as papers, embelishments, tags, die cuts, stencils, stamps, stickers

❤ Stationery such as pencils, lead pencils, pens, cardstock paper, journals, memo sheets, mini memo sheets, pencil cases, erasers

❤ Fabric that is asian inspired, cute, have bold colors, victorian inspired, and has a simple use of colors

❤ Containers and what I mean by that, is boxes, folders, jars, or any type of package. I would especially love it if I were to receive something that is wrapped or packaged creatively or prettily.

Comment: I really hate rating a 1 but you left me with no choice. You have not been online (since June 22, 2010) or read my PM (sent September 7, 2010) regarding this swap. All I honestly wanted was a heads-up on what's going on. As disappointing as it was to not receive anything, I think it stings the most that I was burned by the HOST of the swap. If you are in over your head or are busy with life, a simple message would have gone a long way. I will reconsider re-rating if there is any activity/communication regarding this swap.

Comment: It is now July 11th and I have not received any communication or stamp for the swap. I am disappointed as this is a swap you hosted. I can't believe you marked this swap sent when you obviously did not send it.

Comment: How cute!! i like your ATC of Suigintou (Rozen Maiden) I hope you don't mind a small tip from me, on the back of your ATC's don't forget to write down the title of the ATC your name and date. :)
Response: Thank you for the tip, I'll make sure to do that on the next ATC I make.
