Favorite Crafts

crochet, plastic canvas, making stationery those would be my top favorites

I've crocheted two blankets, two hats (in the process of making a third), three scarfs , numerous wash rags for kitchens, a stuffed caterpillar, bookmarks...

Plastic canvas projects: tissue boxes, key chains, magnets, containers (a heart shaped box, fake gingerbread house, magazine holder), place mats, napkin rings, coasters...

Stationery: rubber stamping, stickers, punch outs from magazines....

Sewing: been sewing since I was at least 7 years old so have sewed many, many things...

I've also done some cross stitch but haven't touched that craft in years. I've done soap making.

About Me

I love penpalling, doing crafts, working on family history, reading young adult vampire books, spending time outdoors, collecting postcards, among others.

I'm completely done with school. I graduated high school in 2004, got my A.A. degree in 2006, and my B.A. degree in anthropology in 2009. No grad school for me- I'm so over that stuff :)

I lost my mother in May of 2009 when I was only 23. The hardest thing I have ever gone through but it has made me stronger.

Favorite Music

Pretty much anything form techno to rock to pop to metal to Christian to country...just depends on my mood.

Some of my favorites: Stonesour, Taylor Swift, Skillet, TobyMac, Switchfoot, Apologetix, Sanctus Real, Mark Schultz, Shawn Bilton, John Mayer, Rascal Flatts, James Blunt, Daniel Powter, Shawn Hlookoff, Natasha Bedingfield, The Fray, Goo Goo Dolls, Enrique Iglesias, Lady Gaga, Pink, Daughtry, Five Finger Death Punch, All-American Rejects

Favorite Movies

Favorite Quotations

"Your beautiful when you smile and pretty when you don't"

"Reach up there and pull those belts tight one more time! Boogity boogity boogity, let's go racing boys!!" - D.W.

There are lots of things to think about, but nothing to worry about. - Matt Koepke

Life is simple its not always easy.

Keep smiling, it makes people wonder what you're up to.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Smile, its contagious

Sniff 'em out - from a sign a fan was holding at a twins game refering to RBI's in case ya didn't know

The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it. -Terry Pratchett

"No farewell words were spoken, no time to say goodbye, you were gone before we knew it and only God knows why…"

will you be sending out your swaps? A little communication can go a long way. You should contact all you partners and let them know why they haven't gotten their stuff yet.

Bucket on Jun 2, 2010:

Disappointed that you haven't sent the Letter Swap: let's collaborate on what to write 2, to your partner. Would be great to know what's going on since you're still logging in!
