i'm 29 years old. currently, i work at a university. i love to write, read, cook, travel, sew and crafts in general. i really enjoy growing things, but i'm not that great at keeping them alive.

in general, i like: zombies, terrariums, burts bees, jewelry (all kinds - i have pierced ears, and love necklaces), journals, anything buddhist, liberal political stuff, zines, screen-printed stuff, pirates, pandas and polar bears, mike and ike candy and sour gummy candies, hot chocolate, asian-themed anything (i'm Korean) - but not anything with the word "Oriental" (racial slur, big no no) etc...

i'm also always on the look out for used or new pez dispensers. my husband, dave, collects them!

i'm not crazy about religious stuff (except for buddhist stuff), winnie the pooh, girlie stuff, Disney, tea, and Walmart.
