Description:

Hi, ok this swap came to mind last night while speakin' with a homegirl. The idea of this swap is to get in touch with your inner "gangster". ~~How many times have you went to a thrift store and switched prices on a item to pay less or how many time have you ever wanted to just pull the hair out of associate working at walmart becuase she didn't want to take the time to go to the back and get you glue sticks and was certain that they didn't carry no more but you know that they did becuase your sister works in that department durning 3rd shift or even how many times you simply have thought of using a sharpie as a eyebrow pencil.~~ OK enough personal stories hehehe... Alt text

The swap is fairly easy 1 partner 1 package. You have to make or buy something that any crafting comadre ruka chola hyna "crafting sancho"(can't forget the cholos out there) would be down to sport in the hood and that the homies would turn and look and say "mira que firme or whatchela"lol.It can be jewlery, custom made wifebeaters(tank tops),a chola beauty kit complete with (aqua net hairspray firm hold the white bottle and black lip liner),or maybe even a custom made bag,anything homemade long as it's worth $10. Anything to represnt your inner chola.Roughly a $10 limit for this swap.

--RUNDOWN--

  • ONE PARTNER ONE PACKAGE

  • ROUGHLY $10 MUST BE SPENT

  • THE USE OF LOTS OF GLITTER RECCOMENDED

Unfortunately, you will be dropped if you: have a low rating, are late on other swaps, and/or have too many unsatisfied swaps. If you fall into any of these categories and would like to stay in the swap, please send me a message me. Also I am not able to be a angel for this swap so please send your stuff!!

This swap is for fun and laughs..So please don't take offense.

Peace out homie g-loc-sters... ~~TORIA A.K.A LA CLASSY CHICA

I had to chuckle when I read this. It makes me think of the time when I took a class called "Chicano Literature" in college, and so many people got offended that the next year they changed the name of the class to "Mexican-American literature". And yes, this swap takes one back in time........................AM
