About Me

eat~sleep~play~swim~dance~read~write~draw~cuddle

I love to try new things, and have strange new experiences.

Favorite Books

My favourite authors are Barbara Kingsolver, Margaret Atwood, and Ursula K LeGuin. I'm mostly into science fiction, but I'll read anything that's well-written and explores interesting ideas.

Favorite Movies

Mostly I LOVE animated movies. Kiki's Delivery Service is my favourite of all time, but anything that's cute and interesting is worth exploring.

WALL-E, The Fantastic Mr. Fox, Watership Down and The Plague Dogs (not cute but both incredible films), The Triplets of Belleville, Sita Sings the Blues, Mind-Game, Millennium Actress, Tekkonkinkreet...

I'm also a sucker for old black and white movies, especially dancin movies, like with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers!

Favourite Video Games

Some great games have had a huge influence on my imagination and aesthetic sense:

Harvest Moon Final Fantasy I, IV, VI and IX Link's Awakening (my favourite Zelda game by far!) Chrono Trigger Sonic the Hedgehog 2 Super Mario 3 Yoshi's Cookie We Love Katamari Shadow of the Colossus Super Metroid Pokmeon Yellow Dynamite Headdy

Favorite Crafts

I used to cross-stitch a lot and wouldn't mind getting back into it. I like collage :D

Favorite Television

Well most television I absolutely loathe, but what I like I really really like! Star Trek (especially TNG), old Simpsons, old Spongebob, Sailor Moon, MASH, Pride and Prejudice... the only things I watch that are actually on right now are Steven Universe and Adventure Time!

Dislikes

I have a pretty wide range of tastes, in general the weirder the better. Just a heads up though, I am not into Disney, Peanuts, Looney Tunes, Twilight et al, stuff with sayings or quotes, or scrapbooking supplies.

Hi there! I was your partner for the Kawaii Themed ATC Swap, and just wanted to check to see if the card I sent you arrived yet? Considering we're in the same province, I'm a bit concerned that the postal service might have eaten it as it should have arrived. I really hope that isn't the case, so wanted to check in with you. Thanks! ♥

Hi! I was your partner for Super Surprise Kawaii Swap, and I was wondering if you had gotten your package yet. I'd be very upset if it gotten lost. :(

Hello there ^^ I'm your Memories Email Swap Partner! I already sent the swap out: make sure you check your spam folder if you don't see it because sometimes my Italian email address gets blocked because it ends in .it! Have a nice day <3 Vaiolet

Hi there! I have always wanted to visit Canada. It seems like such a great place! I love Wall-E too! I thought that was the best movie ever!! That cute little guy brought tears to my eyes too! I also loved The Fantastic Mr. Fox. I don't know why I liked it so much. I thought it was very witty & hillarious! I love food too...maybe a little too much ;) It was nice reading your profile & getting to know a little about you. Take care! Janis
