Hi there! Good day! You can call me Mamieberry. My name Mamie is a Japanese word which means "faith." However, I was born and raised in the Philippines which make feel more like of a Filipino although I simultaneously embrace my being a Filipino and Japanese.

I love everything about writing, I graduated from college with a degree in Bachelor of Arts Major in Literature. I love airmails, stickers, stamps, address labels, letter sets, camera and cute rubber stamps, airmail-themed stuff, vintage paper and envelopes. Am also fond of cute and colorful things! I love Rilakkuma, Hello Kitty, and strawberry! Taking photographs of beautiful and relaxing scenery soothe my senses. Sunset and sunrise are wonderful!

It will be nice to gain a friend through swap-bot! Hoping to meet new souls and have friends.(✿◠‿◠)

I love writing and sending letters to other people because it's like sending a piece of one's heart to others through words. It's such a fascinating thing to be able meet new souls and gain a friend even without the personal presence of a person.

Writing letters ease the pain and loneliness of one's weary heart. Sending them to others can give a glimmer of hope to the recipient, while receiving them from other people is such pure bliss.

I am also into Photography, it helps me appreciate the simple delights that life has to offer. I am forever grateful!

My favorite color ever since I am a child is blue! I am aware that it is somewhat a gloomy color but I find solace whenever I am surrounded by things that are painted blue. As I get older, it seems like I am falling in love with another color and that is brown. Brown because it has a vintage feel and it seems very calm.

I love green tea! The best I had so far is the Japan's green tea. I make it a point to buy a lot whenever I am there. :)

I am collecting anything Rilakkuma, Hello Kitty, Strawberry stuff, and I have an intense fondness in collecting beautiful notebooks/journals and pens! Sometimes, I really try to avoid supplies shop because I always end up getting a new pen or journal. :p

I like simple and cute things. I get amused by the little treats of life.

Chronicles of Narnia, August Rush, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, 3 Idiots, 50 First Dates, Life of Pi, Radio, The Terminal, Blended, and Forrest Gump.

I also love Japanese movies and dramas such as Tada Kimi Wo Aishiteru, Mother, Kaseifu No Mita, and Marumo No Okite. ♥

My favorite TV series are Dexter, Breaking Bad, and SUITS! I love Harvey Specter and Donna, but the whole cast is lovely as well. :)
