About Me

Hey there, I'm Leigh! I'm a 23 year old university student who dabbles in what feels like a million different hobbies!

I'm a spoonie and an INFP.

I think one of my most defining characteristics is that I'm absolutely a crazy cat lady, I have two spoiled little girls - Violet and Goose. I talk about them whenever I can, they're my favourite people, haha.

My favourite colours are pastel purples, pinks, and blues. I'm really into the "Danish Pastel" aesthetic right now.

I am absolutely obsessed with stickers, my sticker drawers are literally overflowing. I love adding to TPC's (traveling sticker postcards) and sticker bombing envelopes!

I recently started Postcrossing and I've really been loving it, even though my wallet has been suffering as Canada Post doesn't offer postcard rate stamps (sigh).

ABC's

A- art, animals, astrology, astronomy, animal crossing, alternative

B- butterflies, birds, bees, botany, bullet journaling, blue

C- cats, crafts, cottagecore, cluttercore, crystals, calligraphy, chocolate, concerts, collages

D- daisies, dogs, dreams, danish pastel

E- enamel pins, earth, elves, emails, emojis, envelopes, education, eco friendly

F- flowers, ferns, frogs, foxes, fantasy, fairies, feminism

G- gemstones, gifts

H- hygge, handmade, happy mail, happiness

I - introvert, instagram

J- jam, journals, jokes

K- kitschy, kawaii

L- letters, leaves, love, LGBTQIA2s+, learning

M- mushrooms, moths, moon, music, motivational, mental health, memo pads

N- nature, night

O- opossums, otters

P- postcards, plants, paper, painting, picnics, photos, poems, politics

Q- quiet

R- raccoons, relaxing, reading

S- stickers, stationery, spring, studio ghibli, star trek, star wars

T- trees, tarot, totoro, travel

U- universe, university

V- video games

W- washi tape, writing, whimsical, witchy, wildflowers

X- x-men (the only x i could think of)

Y- yellow

Z- zines

Favorite Television

I haven't been watching many shows lately, but I really love:

  • Twin Peaks
  • Futurama
  • That 70's Show
  • Stranger Things
  • Breaking Bad
  • Narcos
  • The Mandalorian
  • The Clone Wars (I have yet to finish)
  • Mindhunter
  • Criminal Minds
  • Community

Favorite Books

After a long battle with a dissociative disorder and ADHD, I've finally started to delve back into reading fiction again! I don't get to read as much as I'd like due to the ridiculous amount of academic readings I have to do, but my goal for 2023 is 25 books - feel free to follow me on GoodReads!

I haven't really read enough lately to determine favourites, but I really enjoy the following genres: short stories, women vs. the void, thriller/suspense, sci-fi, true crime, memoirs, essay collections, etc...

Stickers

I love l stickers of all shapes and forms, but I mainly use ones from Stickii, Pipsticks, Four Bears, Mrs. Grossman's, and small businesses.

I post a lot of my stickering on my Instagram, so feel free to check it out and don't hesitate to reach out if you'd like to do a sticker swap!

Postcards

As I mentioned, I've recently gotten into Postcrossing, so I would really love more interesting postcards in my collection! I really love art, animals, quotes, and comics, but I will be grateful for anything :)

Likes

I love anything, but I specifically love postcards, stickers, small envelopes, memo pads/sheets, any art, and pretty paper!

Oh, and more importantly, please write me a little note (if you have the time)! My absolute favourite part of snail mail is getting to see glimpses of people's personalities and lives. You can write absolutely anything for me, hell, you could even send your grocery list for the week and I would be happy to read it!

Dislikes

I'm not a very picky person, but please don't send me...

  • Anime stuff unless it's something I have listed, I don't watch it and have no use for it.

  • Anything related to mothers

  • Kiddy stuff (i.e. disney/pixar)

  • Religious stuff, I respect everyone's beliefs, but I have no interest in receiving religious-related stuff.

  • Anything you wouldn't want to receive!

Rationale

I love making people smile, so I always try my best to put a bit of extra effort into my swaps. There's nothing like feeling absolutely spoiled by a stranger, is there?

I always send on time, but sometimes mail gets picked up every other day from the community mailbox I send at.

I always rate as soon as I receive a swap, and if there is an issue I will reach out before rating negatively.

Overall though, this is just a hobby and it's not as serious as some people make it out to be. I don't really make a big deal out of it, because at the end of the day, I think we're all trying our best with what we've got :)

Treat people with kindness and respect, always!

Comment: Thank you for hosting such a fun swap! I love the new card you used. Your reading list so far this year is very impressive. I Think I may have to look more into the book Normal People! I also don’t Think I will ever use a e-book. Nothing beats flipping through the pages. Thanks again!

Comment: Leigh, thank you so much for this swap and the extras. It shows that you put time and effort into choosing postcards (and stickers) that I would like. My favorite would be the Women In Art postcard. I just loved the Rachel Ignotofsky's Women In Science set and I'm happy to add to my collection. As for my profile, it took me some time to find some deco that fit but I love how it turned out!:P Have a great day ♥

Comment: Thank you for the pretty Paris card. The Frieda Kahlo quote was really appropriate because I had to go get some needles stuck in my foot today and was feeling a bit sorry for myself. It's funny how sometimes the right message just comes at the right time.

Comment: Wow, 11 books in one month—totally impressed. I'm not a romantic fiction reader but a story with realistic characters might be worth checking out. I put Mexican Gothic on my holds list. Thanks for sharing.
Response: Ah I'm so glad to hear you've added Mexican Gothic to your holds! I'm surprised I hadn't heard more about it until my blind library date. Hope you enjoy!!!

Comment: I love your zentanlge! It looks great for your first time. This was also my first time attempting zentangle and I don't think mine turned out as nice as yours. I like that it's in color! Pretty flower postcard and stamps as well. Thanks so much! :)
