About Me

Hello, my name is Ellie and I'm from England. I'm very shy and introverted (INFP/INTP Myer Briggs type) so joining this website is a little intimidating... Hopefully meeting some lovely people will make this experience seem less daunting!

Currently I am a student studying A-levels in Biology, Maths, and Physics, with an EPQ specialising in the vision of cuttlefish. Sadly however, I am on prolonged medical leave so my studies have been put on pause until I am well enough.

In the future, I wish to study biology at university and go into the research sector. I love all the sciences but biology is a passion of mine, particularly anything about marine animals.

In my spare time, I love to read. Fantasy novels are my favourite but I enjoy pretty much anything. On the artsier side, I love drawing and making things. I keep a journal which is basically an excuse to buy more and more cute stationary and stickers! I would love to be able to gush over pretty sticky notes with a pen pal.

Favorite Music

Pretty much all 80's music! But I enjoy the 60's a lot too. The Clash, AC/DC, Guns N' Roses, The Police, David Bowie, The Smiths, The Cure, Sonic Youth, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin

I also have a soft spot for Disney songs and ABBA!

I am always open to listening to new genres of music, so send me a playlist of what you like and I'll give it a listen!

Favorite Books

I LOVE Harry Potter! I grew up with the books and still haven't let go. I'm a fellow Gryffindor, with Ravenclaw as a close second. I enjoy both series and stand-alones. As I said previously, fantasy is my favourite genre, but I love sci-fi, mystery, and some contemporary.

I'm currently on the hunt for good new adult books since I still read mostly young adult fiction. Poetry is another genre I'm interested in but haven't read as much as I would have liked to.

Feel free to send me any book recommendations or poems you like!

Favorite Movies

Thor: Ragnarok is my favourite movie of all time but I love every single Marvel movie out there. I watch them frequently and enjoy talking about the Marvel universe with other fans.

Disney movies also go down well with me! My favourites are Tangled, Moana, Beauty and the Beast, and Peter Pan.

Favorite Television

Brooklyn Nine-Nine is my favourite show so I've seen it far too many times! I also love The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Sex Education, The Big Bang Theory, Friends, The Umbrella Academy, and Stranger Things.

I love Marvel TV series too, like Daredevil and Jessica Jones. Recently I watched Titans which was a great series for me to watch DC for the first time.

Other Likes

Colours - Pink is my absolute favourite!! All Pastels, yellow, purple, white, blue

Themes - Moon & stars, woodland, fairy tales, plants, mythology, vintage, handmade, illustrations, fairies, teddy bears, halloween

I also love handmade postcards, even if the swap says otherwise!


DISLIKES - Although I really wish I liked these, I don't like tea or coffee. Apologies!

Wish List

After reading your bucket list, I can say that we have A LOT in common :-D By the way: I have lived in France for 6 months and I'm fluent in French ;) If you're interested, we could be penpals. I bet we'd get along well :)

Comment: Thank you for the lovely PC with the nice stamps and your note. I always point out, when asked to rate pain against the worst I've ever felt, that I have never broken a bone or gone through labor. Yes, I'm a wise guy, even in pain.

Hi, I see from your ratings you're a great artist and crafters, and you like turtles and sea creatures, so I was wondering if you'd be interested in joining my Scales 'n' Tails group? We currently have a turtle ATC swap which sounds perfect for you!

Hello from Texas, Ellie,
I love the 60s music also. That's the music I grew up with. I love to read but I haven't read Harry Potter. I think I'm the only one in the universe. I'll have to check it out. Big Bang Theory is my favorite. I wish you well in your studies. Have a wonderful day! Hugs, Diane

Hello Ellie, this is Eliana! How are you? It's funny because "Eli" (just pronounced like your name!) is my nickname! Everybody call me like that! Wow, i'm impressed you study those things that seems so hard to understand to other people! I admire you and hope you can start your studies again soon. I love Brooklyn Nine-Nine too! Is one of my favorites series, love them! Cheers!
