About Me

Coming back to Swap Bot after a hiatus!

Hi everyone! My name is Allie, I'm in my 30s and live on Long Island, NY. I am an avid gamer, tea drinker, animal lover, collector of kawaii, shopaholic, and student of Japanese. I like to sing, write, cook, shop, and go to the dog park. I’m also a romance author under a pen name! I hope to make some good friends on here and get some fantastic swaps together. :)

I’m married and have 2 kids, a son and daughter (4 and 7).

Favorite Music

In English: The Script, Phoenix, The Temper Trap, top 40s, alternative.

In Japanese: Hikaru Utada, BoA, Chemistry, m-flo, Heartsdales, Crystal Kay, Namie Amuro.

I also play Japanese taiko drums!

Favorite Books

A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones), The Hunger Games, and anything by Kresley Cole or Gena Showalter! I'm a huge paranormal romance fan. The Mortal Instruments/The Infernal Devices. The Demonica series by Larissa Ione. :D

Favorite Movies

Almost any Pixar, Disney or Dreamworks movie!

Favorite Television

Sailor Moon, Sword Art Online, Magic Knight Rayearth, Cardcaptor Sakura

Favorite Crafts

Drawing, paper crafts, collage, Sculpy. Right now I'm super into ATCs and cardmaking.

I Like...

Anything Japanese (or Asian), ATC backgrounds and embellishments, paper, die cuts, stickers, stamps from outside the US, Sailor Moon stuff, kawaii (particularly mini memo sheets), ads or magazine cutouts in other languages, ephemera, and manga pages.

Tea Preferences: I like tea of any kind except for berry flavored teas... they taste too bitter to me. I'm especially partial to green and oolong.

Please Don't Send

Religious items, book pages (unless they're out of the ordinary or have illustrations) or snacks.

Favorite Video Games

I love RPGs, rhythm, puzzle and platformer/action games.

My absolute favorite games of all time are Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age Inquisition, Final Fantasy VIII and Final Fantasy XIII-2. I also love the Legend of Zelda series (especially Ocarina of Time and Link to the Past), Super Smash Brothers Melee, Destiny, Kingdom Hearts, Tearaway (paper craft theme!), Diablo III, World of Warcraft, and many more :)

Comment: Thanks Allie! Your Sailor Neptune is absolutely lovely. And thank you very much for the sweet note. I can't believe how cold it's been in NY and snowy!! If you ever make it out to Hawaii (and I hope you do! My mom just found a fare from Detroit to Honolulu for $247 each way!! Super good deal!) hit me up and we'll swim, hike, craft, and have a LOTR marathon, lol.

XD Yes I heard about them making it into a TV show... It would be great if the could get Jamie Cambell Bower back for the role as Jace, I <3 him!
