I'm a crochet fanatic! I love anything amigurumi. I also enjoy baking and decorating cakes.
Basically, if it has anything to do with crafting I love it (crochet, knit, scrapbooking, watercolors, making plushies, embroidery, etc.)!
I used to read a lot, but school has eaten up most of my time. I'm one of those people who has to finish the book in one sitting so I haven't picked up a book in some time. Here are a few of my favorites: The Abhorsen Trilogy, Pride and Prejudice, Howl's Moving Castle, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, 1984, Lord of the Flies, The Count of Monte Cristo,
I also read manga and manhwa. Here is a very short list of my favorites: Bride of the Water God, Saver, Case Closed, Sket Dan, Pandora Heart, Ghost Hunt, Skip Beat!, Star Project Chiro
I love anything clever and well-written.
Supernatural
Bones
Criminal Minds
House
Doctor Who
Torchwood
Psych
I must confess that I'm a music addict! I probably spend at least 3 hours a day listening to my Zune. I listen to music from all across the world, from Korea to Japan to the UK. I like most genres, although rock is definitely my favorite. I like inspirational up-beat rock, not the scream-o violent kind. I also like techno (David Guetta is my favorite DJ)
Here are a few of my favorite artists:
Muse
Stone Temple Pilots
Thrice
The Killers
Home Made Kazoku,
The Hush Sound
Sia
Semisonic
UVERworld
Asian Kung Fu Generation
Chevelle
Within Temptation
I'm a 20 year old Biochem major who happens to be in love with the arts. I enjoy expressing myself through crafting.
LIKES:
Colors:Burnt Orange, Blue, White, Purple, Green, Grey, Brown, Cream
Animals: Rabbits, Elephants, Giraffes, Birds, Octopi, Hippos, Pigs, Sheep, Goats, Deer
I like to try out new teas! No coffee, though. :)
Alice in Wonderland (!!!!), Elegant, Vintage, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, Victorian, Dark, Nature, Chibi, Kawaii, Woodland creaturs, Forests.
Think Grimm's Fairytales and Pride and Prejudice. :)
Basically I like anything that has that old library feel to it. Something that's exciting and still comfortable and familiar at the same time, like picking up a good book when you're all wrapped up in a blanket on your favorite couch and exploring a new world from the comfort of your home. I'm a romantic. And maybe a little bit of an old lady?
DISLIKES:
Colors: Hot Pink, Neon Colors
Animals: I love them all! But I don't like lizards, snakes, scorpions and most insects. Butterflies are great. Ladybugs not so much.
An easy way to see what I like is to take a look at my Etsy Favorites.
Also, just in case I'm ever in one of those nifty Etsy gift exchanges. I love stuff like that!

Hi I am new here but have been teaching myself to crochet because I wanted to make the cute creatures I saw pics of in a magazine recently. The article just said they were crocheted but following your link this weekend I learned that they are Amigurumi and I just LOVE them. I know I won't be able to join the swap but I wamted to say thanks for indirectly helping me and for the inspiration! Wish me luck! :D
Hi KatSu. I just joined swap bot today and the only swap I've signed up for is your Amigurumi one. I make a ton of them. I have one all ready to ship out, in fact I can choose from about 20 that are newly crocheted and ready to go and will look carefully at my partners' preferences to see what animal or doll she/he would most like to get. Please let me stay in the swap. I promise not to flake!
