Hello, it's nice to meet you!!! :D Welcome to my page!

I love the USPS, mail, collecting and scanning anime merch, art/drawing, selfshipping, stickers, OCs, and a whole bunch of other nonsense. I collect enamel pins, fanzines, art books, prints, stickers, and limited edition/event exclusive stuff. Born and raised on O‘ahu...I miss home very much. I dream of one day working at the post office. LGBT + sex positive and down with the clown - whoop whoop!!!

I'm totally new to swap-bot, so please go easy on me as I try to learn the rules and proper etiquette. :0 I think the only physical swap events I've ever participated in was on reddit (r/secretsanta) for Funko pops and postcards. I see a lot of scrapbookers and crafty people here, I think it's so neat!

I don't have regular access to the Post Office so I schedule pickups for bigger packages. I mark swaps as sent after I put them in the mailbox!

I realize that I do like a lot of specific shows/things so here's some general stuff I like!

My favorite colors are any shade of blue (with a preference towards cyan, baby blue, and turquoise), pink, and blood red! I love chihuahuas, whippets, and cute cats. Food themed items are perfect because my eyes are way bigger than my stomach. Favorite restaurant is Chili's. Total believer in live, laugh, love!

I used to play trombone and euphonium, my partner is a bassoonist...so naturally those are my favorite instruments. xD Anything music themed is a 10/10 for me. If you recognize any of the characters/fandoms I'm into, I would love anything related or even vaguely similar.

I love drawings, notes, letters, or even just a quick hello written on scrap paper - it's fun to read and I can view other peoples handwriting. I wanna hear about YOU, feel free to talk about yourself!! Postage stamps, non-traditional/vintage postcards, and state/city/location specific things are the best!

Gorillaz is my favorite band and Bruno Mars is my favorite singer!!! :D I've seen Gorillaz live at Life Is Beautiful 2017...I hope to be proposed to at a Bruno concert haha. Both of them have such lovely voices, I can't help but sing or dance along.

I like a whole bunch of musicians, including (but not limited to): Insane Clown Posse, Daft Punk, Mindless Self Indulgence/EURINGER, Ben Folds, *NSYNC, The Beatles, Eminem, TWRP, Falling In Reverse, Lemon Demon, Panic! At The Disco, Tally Hall, Ninja Sex Party, Oingo Boingo, DEMONDICE, JT Music, Lana Del Rey, and The Living Tombstone. I also listen to musical and videogame soundtracks (Wicked, Hamilton, West Side Story, Last Five Years, Sonic, Persona, Mario, Minecraft, FO:NV, Subnautica, etc.).

My absolute favorite videogames are Mario Kart Wii, Shadow the Hedgehog (2005), Subnautica, and Sonic the Hedgehog (2006).

I'm a big fan of Sonic (Forces, Colors, Generations, Lost World, etc.), Persona (4/5) and Danganronpa (1/2). Some other games I like are Fortnite, Phasmophobia, Minecraft, Golf with Friends, Tomodachi Life, My Sims, Stardew Valley, Doki Doki Literature Club, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4, and Aggressive Inline.

I won't get too much into it, but I love fictional characters. Like...a LOT. So here's a list of some of them!

All time favorites: Morgana (Persona 5), Mitsuo Kubo (Persona 4), Loki Laufeyson (The Avengers, Thor, Thor: The Dark World), Lapis Lazuli (Steven Universe), Cinnamoroll, Bad Badtz-Maru, and Little Twin Stars (Sanrio).

Other characters I like: Luigi, Waluigi, Bowser Jr., Rosalina (Mario), Yuri, Natsuki (Doki Doki Literature Club), Kiyotaka Ishimaru, Sayaka Maizono, Mukuro Ikusaba, Hiyoko Saionji, Kazuichi Souda, Seiko Kimura (Danganronpa), Fresh Punch (Sanrio), Beerus, Vegeta, Freiza, Gamma 1, Gamma 2 (Dragon Ball), Armin Arlert, Annie Leonhart, Hange Zoë, and Pieck Finger (Attack on Titan).

Grouping these categories because I feel like they aren't big enough to justify their own boxes. :0c

I haven't read an actual book in a while, whoops. >_< I mostly read fanfiction on Archive of Our Own. My favorite book books are Misery by Stephen King, the Chibi Vampire series by Yuna Kagesaki, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, Zoe Letting Go by Nora Price, and The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold.

My favorite shows are Bojack Horseman, Arcane, and Steven Universe - I also like Teasing Master-Takagi-san, Persona 4 the Animation, Chibi Vampire, and Sonic Boom (can you tell I don't watch a lot of TV?).

My favorite movie is Princess and the Frog, I adore the human characters a bunch! I also like Ratatoullie, Sonic the Hedgehog 1 & 2 (& soon to be 3), Wreck It-Ralph, DBZ: Battle of Gods, DBS: Super Hero, Thor, Thor: The Dark World, The Avengers, Deadpool, Talk To Me, Steven Universe: The Movie, Five Nights at Freddy's, Misery, The Hunger Games trilogy, The Twilight Saga, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, and a whole bunch I can't even remember right now.

I don't quite know how to answer this - I like all crafts! :3 If it's a flat kind of craft I'm definitely gonna try and scan it with my Epson. I guess I have a preference towards needle work and paper items? Cute, cool, handmade (or not), I'll love it!!
