*UPDATED 12/25/2018 I am now 32 years old, living with my boyfriend and we have a 1 year old daughter. I took a break from swapbot after having to move out of my family's house and learning to live on my own. I moved around from place to place for about 2 years until I met my boyfriend and we settled down. I want to get back into swapbot now that I am (for the most part) a stay at home mom. I used to have lots and lots of ephemera, stickers, etc.but had to let a lot of stuff go as I moved around a few years back. I want to start building my collection again because I like to work on my journals when I work on weekends. I am still a caregiver for elderly/disabled adults. I am trying to make right on past swaps where I received negative ratings in the past, but some of the members are not available anymore. I'm excited to get back to swapping!

I am 30 years old, no kids, work as a caregiver and I love my life! I love making new friends online because I am always working, so i don't have time to make real life friends. Lol. Swap bot is one of the many ways I stay "sane" by interacting with people.

I love to collect journals,memo sheets, STICKERS or anything related to the following: koalas,snails,hedgehogs, stars,rainbows,unicorns, desserts, cats, dogs, ducks,small rodents, KAWAII characters, Lisa Frank, penguins, sea creatures, starfish, jellyfish, animals in costumes,seahhorse,dolphins,mermaids, skeletons,planets.... (...I'll continue this later.lol), colorful writing instruments like markers and pens and gel pens. I love notes written in gel pen on black paper.

I love kawaii stationary. Hello Kitty is cute,but not one of my favorites.I'm more of a Twin Stars fan, but I also love to collect memo sheets with animals and tasty looking desserts. lol. I use lots of memo sheets of all sizes,I use them for my "one quote a day journal". A different quote on each memo sheet :)

I like lots of color, especially neon and glitter,but i'm also fascinated with images the solar system and darker things such as skeletons and aliens. I like pictures of anatomy, especially anatomical hearts. Anything Halloween themed is usually fun for me. I love reading and watching anything on the paranormal, urban legends, anything "tabboo". I studied psychology in college, I love to study the mind of serial killers (weird I know) but I also like to study relationships ( I'm an introvert).

I would one day like to visit the following places and would love to see these these on mail art: Norway (the northern lights ), Alaska, and Australia

Sometimes "favorite songs" tell more about someone's personality rather than "artist". Right now I am loving:

Donna Lewis- I love you always forever

Bloc Party- Like Eating Glass ( remix album version)

Flo Rida- Sometimes I get a Feeling

Bruno Mars- It will rain

Journaling

I AM CURRENTLY OBSESSED WITH PLANNERS, SMASH/ JUNK JOURNALS AND ALTERED COMPOSITION BOOKS. I am currently wishing for items that are kind of "dark themed" : garbage Pail Kids! Lol, halloween, vintage, black and white, tim burton, psychological, paranormal, zombies, vampires, big foot, lochness monster, trolls, etc, Anything "sticky" such as labels, stickers, post its. I am also OBSESSED with using old 35mm camera NEGATIVES for my Journals. I hope you know what I mean. Lol. Anything in that kind of theme would be very appreciated right now. I have a lot of cute whimsical stuff, need to balance it out with darker themed items. Lol.

Collages made out of Magazine cut outs

Mail Art

photography

Poetry and prose

I'm new to making ATC's and collages, so any scraps and stuff you would consider "junk" would probably be useful for me. I collect a lot of paper and ephemera and its actually quite embarrassing how much stuff I like to collect and hoard

Einstein's Dreams- by Alan Lightman

Now a days I am reading anything motivational, inspirational, business. I also listen to audio programs and motivational videos on YouTube when I am in my car.
