smatizio

I'm Sarah and I live in Australia.

I joined swap-bot because my crazy friend wouldn't stop talking about this site.

While writing this profile I got distracted and totally forgot to send my client her documents as urgently as she wanted them LOL.

I pledge to other swap-bot members to:

1. Rate for every swap I take part in.

2. Rate as soon as I am able to get on line after swap is received.

3. Rate Fairly, I will only give a 1 rating if a swap hasn't been received and that no contact has been made from the sender. I promise to pm member first to give them the chance to resolve the situation first.

4. I will only give a 3 if I feel that the swap didn't meet the requirements and that the partner choose's not to correct the swap.

5. I will try and leave a message on all ratings to state what I received and what I was happy with, even if its just a thankyou.

6. I will not use slander or badmouth anyone when given a rating, facts is all that is needed when rating a 1.

I like just about any genre of music particularly country and rock but basically anything except rap and death metal.

Favourite Artists at the moment include Florence & The Machine, Jason Aldean, Blake Shelton, Linkin Park, 30 Seconds to Mars to name just a few :)

I am likened to a reading machine by my friends. I love to read and read very fast. I used to read a lot of crime fiction in the past but my tastes have actually declined to romance - trashy or not I'm not too fussed but that's what's floating my boat right now :)

I LOVE Nora Roberts and own just about every book she's written. I also enjoy Susan Mallery, Christine Feehan, Harry Potter, JR Ward, Mary Balogh and the list continues...

Another easily long list as movies are also a favourite pastime of mine of which I enjoy a varied and sometimes eclectic range.

All time favourites are hard to narrow down but the top of the list includes Meet Me in St Louis, Pride & Prejudice (the BBC version), A Walk to Remember, Lethal Weapon and probably more I can't think of without standing in front of my collection.

I have to admit I barely watch TV anymore. I make special downloading effort to get the latest US seasons of So You Think You Can Dance and whilst in the US earlier in the year for work I did get myself a Netflix account so I could watch all 6 seasons of Bones right through.

As soon as the ability to stream media legally and unlimited come to Australia - I'll probably get around to watching all those great shows I never get around to watching.

One other exception is the West Wing which I watch at least once a year!

I am not artsy, craftsy or creative in way shape or form - so feel free to be specific about things you want :)

On second thought it occurred to me today that I am really into office stationery which is kind of like crafts... kind of

I really enjoy bright colours and wacky, funky, unusual stuff that I can put on my desk at work which will make me smile when I'm having a bad day!

So I've been swapping for a couple of months now and I think I've got a bit of a clue about what I do and don't like.

Firstly I am TOTALLY into stickers. Not so much animals but definitely flowers, hearts, shapes and colours - especially anything bright and fun. I don't actually use them alot but I love to get them and look at them and then send them on with love... possibly a little weird for sure LOL

I do particularly use address labels - I don't have a printer for them at home so any that come my way are much appreciated and used for all my swap envelopes.

My second big like is postcards - all types of pictures and comments are always enjoyed but I definitely love to get cards showing where people are from. I'm thinking I need some sort of album to collate them all into - but in such a way that I can still get to the back to see the messages. Postcards are always preferred naked and written on!

More generally: My favourite colour is purple, followed closely by blue and green and all shades between. I love Disney and Winnie the Pooh (Eeyore is my ABSOLUTE favourite charactor ever!) dolphins and horses and all baby animals :)

I hope that helps everyone I'm swapping with when they are choosing what to send me. If not - I'm only a message away.

Here's the name and shame portion of the profile - all the way down at the bottom so as to not make the whole page negative
