I am playing catch up on some swaps and have contacted those of you who are affected. Everything should be out by this weekend.

If you haven't heard from me and haven't gotten anything please let me know!!

I'm 21 years old. I'm a photography major at a local community college. I probably won't go on to more school after I graduate as I have a great job and want to keep photography as a hobby. I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters, and family means the most to me. My parents and grandparents are AMAZING. I think the word family needs to be redefined. I include those not blood related, but might as well be in there too (i.e. my close friends or people who've made an impact on my life).

My cousin got me started, and now I've gotten my best friend, sister, and aunt all addicted to this site too!

I love making ATCs with my sister...it's fun to scrapbook together too!

I got a kitten recently and named her Pumpkin, she's my baby!

I also just got an apartment and I'm in love with decorating it.

I'm extremely open minded and fairly liberal.

I love spending my time with my boyfriend and hanging out with friends. Also watching movies, crafting, and reading.

*no offense, but i do not wish to receive religious items. thanks for the thoughts though =)

Lately my favorite music has been:

• Bayside
• Against Me!
• U2
• Rise Against
• Death Cab
• The Police
• The Gaslight Anthem

I just started the Twilight series =)

I love Harry Potter,
Sting's biography Broken Music,
Little Woman,
and I love children's books with great illustrations

A League of Their Own is my favorite.

Love the Batman movies,
Disney and Pixar movies,
anything by Tim Burton,
10 Things I Hate About You,
Benny & Joon,
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,
Juno,
and A TON MORE!

One Tree Hill,
Gossip Girl,
Gilmore Girls,
The Simpsons,
the office,
and Law and Order

I get stuck on really bad MTV reality shows too

I'm obsessed about scrapbook and making mosaics, but I love just about any craft if I can find the time to do it!

I've become a new lover of making ATC's! (UH, I'm COMPLETELY obsessed!)

• ANYTHING to do with strawberries

• tattoos (i have 18 and counting!)

• photography (it's my major)

• baseball (st. louis cardinals baseball!!)

• hockey (GO BLUES!)

• Fleur De Lis (this symbol is become a major * decorating theme for me in my new apt)

• scrapbooking (i love collecting new papers and embellishments!!)

• rubber stamps and embossing powders

• blank note cards and cool colorful pens for writing letters

• DISNEY movies (beauty and the beast, the little mermaid, and aladdin are my favs!), pixar movies, and tim burton films too!

• i love pin up girl pictures and esp when photographers try to recreate old prints

• anything drawn by Kurt Halsey

• favorite colors: fall colors, brown, black, pink, teal, green+pink together, yellow+black, reds

I try to rate on the day I received the item, but sometimes life gets in the way of swapping and it doesn't happen as fast as I would like it to.

If you have not received a rating and feel your swap would have already gotten to me, please feel free to send me a message so I can check it and make sure I didn't put it with my other swaps and forgot to rate!

Also...hearts are given to those who took the time to put their heart into their swaps. Extras are not necessary for hearts. I feel like if you took the time with your swap and put thought into, then you deserve the heart. I hate when I receive weak swaps, but then they send extras so I feel like I have to give a heart even if I don't think they deserved it!

And I would hope others would give hearts on the same criteria!
