If you are missing a rating from me, please let me know! I tend to wait a long time just in case something gets lost in the mail, and sometimes time gets away from me. Please feel free to send me a message if you think I should have gotten something by now!

I used to swap/pen pal a lot when I was younger and am still addicted to receiving and sending mail.

I LOVE the San Jose Sharks & #16, Devin Setoguchi, is still my favorite (I don't care that he was traded years ago).

I'm a picture hoarder. I "collect" photos (of everything, especially crafts!) and graphics from online as inspiration and take tons of photos myself. My favorite subjects to photograph are clouds, cemeteries and my dogs, though if you hand me a camera expect me to transform into the paparazzi--I'll take photos of just about anything (except people...groups of people make me nervous & I refuse to be "the photographer" at parties, even family functions!).

I write a LOT--which explains my love of writing supplies. The start of a new school year still gets me excited to stock up on notebooks and pens. I have tons of journals, stationery & cards.

My Christian faith is very important to me and I am currently fascinated by people's spiritual gifts.

• En Masse Journal 2016 (ala Shannon Green on YouTube)
• Tim Holtz's Creative Chemistry 101/102/103 classes (103 is completed!!)

I do a little bit of everything! And am willing to try almost any craft at least once. I know I haven't listed everything here

• Kumihimo
• Paper beads

Reading is a big part of my identity, just like crafting.

• The Forest of Hands and Teeth series by Carrie Ryan
• The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins, * Pride & Prejudice and Persuasion by Jane Austen
• Harry Potter series by JK Rowling
• North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell
• The Little House on the Prairie Books by Laura Ingalls Wilder
• Cassandra Clare's The Infernal Devices, The Mortal Instruments and The Dark Artifices series'

I'm a huge fan of anything post apocalyptic and dystopian. I love those Amish books that aren't really Christian novels but almost could be, as well as the Christian ones, and the Mail Order Bride books of the same kind (not the Harlequin romance novel type ones but the same kind as the Amish ones). And lots and lots of YA.

• Favorite authors: Jane Austen, Carrie Ryan

• I'm 100% Ravenclaw. The Goblet of Fire is my favorite book from the series, as well as my favorite movie.

• You've Got Mail
• Cinderfella
• Enchanted
• 10 Things I Hate About You
• The Slipper and the Rose
• Say Anything
• The Little Mermaid
• Can't Hardly Wait
• Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
• Harry Potter (Esp. Goblet of Fire)
• The 10th Kingdom
• Pride & Prejudice (A&E 1995) *Any Avengers movie (Hawkeye is my absolute favorite, Falcon and Captain America are a close second!)
• She's the Man
• Wall-E (my go-to movie to watch when I'm stressed to calm me down!)
• Sense & Sensibility (A&E 2008)

I'll watch anything with John Cusack, Colin Firth or Sandra Bullock in it. I do love romantic comedy, chick flick type things. I cannot help myself.

• Flowers: Think Regency/Jane Austen simplified kind of flowers/lace/style rather than a more flower/girly Victorian/Marie Antoinette

• Jewelry: SPARKLES! I'm more of a rhinestone girl than a pearl girl.

• I love metallic/rhinestones/holographic stuff. I don't mind my earrings or necklaces sparkling in the sun (as long as it doesn't blind other drivers!)
