AcadiaChick

Hello Everyone! So, a little bit about me... I finished up my degree in Sociology & Psychology last May, then moved to Oromocto, New Brunswick from Wolfville, Nova Scotia to live with my husband. We then got married on August 2nd, 2008. Now, I'm doing the army wife thing and working locally as a Youth Support Worker for a Special Needs child & an Educator Assistant at the Military Family Resource Centre.

The things I love:

• prim note pads/pens/pencils
• scrapbooking items - something love or wedding themed would great!
• candles, especially grubby candles [I can't seem to find them after relocating with the military - but no pine/forest/woodsy type scents please!]
• I ADORE French Vanilla, Creamy Vanilla, or Vanilla anything, candles, body mists, and melts.
• I absolutely LOVE Yankee tarts. My favorite scents are: French Vanilla, Country Linen, Farmhouse Apple, Midsummers Night, and tons more! (Again, just nothing pine/forest/woodsy please!)
• Room sprays (something country or bakery- like apple pie, cinnamon, etc.)
• Other tarts or melts
• Favorite colour combos: pink & brown, aqua blue & brown and my favorite prim colours are: mustard,navy blue and burgandy
• Chocolate - mostly milk chocolate or something with mint
• Hot chocolate - the mint kind is my favorite but I also enjoy HC with marshmallows or creamy goodness!
• I really like primitive home decor, especially the wooden stars, but really anything primitive
• I love the sayings: Always Kiss Me Goodnight & Live, Love, Laugh
• Cute socks & Girlie PJs (see my sizes)
• I'm a girlie girl - so I like doing my nails and my hair. I love light pink nail polish & athletic styled head bands.
• I'd really love a Lu Lu Lemon, or Under Armour fabric headband since I can't seem to find them in Canada.
• I've been looking for a LIVESTRONG bracelet for a while too. I can't seem to find one of those either.
• Reuseable bags, morsbags, or canvas totes in cute patterns, and I also love polka dots. So, something pink and brown or aqua and brown would be great!
• I'd like to start tole painting so some magazines or patterns for some cute primitive signs would be greatly appreciated
• I ♥ stationary & office supplies. Notebooks, journals, post-its, cute binder clips, and folders.
• and just in case you run out of ideas...my husband really loves: Jack Skelington from the Nightmare Before Christmas, Spider-Man, mini-travel packs(with mini toothpaste, shampoo, deodrant, etc.) for when he's in the field, and comics. I'm sure he'd really appreciate a surprise!

Top 40 primarily, and some country. Some of my favorite artists include: Serena Ryder, Akon, Thriving Ivory, T.I., Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Shiloh, Rihanna, Chris Brown...and many more!

When I have time to watch TV these are the shows that I enjoy: Grey's Anatomy, CSI, CSI: New York, HOUSE, MD., One Tree Hill, and 90210.

These are some of the films I've come to enjoy: The Women, The Dark Knight, Iron Man, Jarhead, Annapolis, The Guardian, Miss Congeniality, Mr & Mrs Smith, 2 Weeks Notice...& anything Sandra Bullock or Angelina Jolie :)

I like to scrapbook - and I'm just getting back into it so I currently love checking out all the new supplies! Especially primitive looking cardstock and stickers, ribbon, and embellishments. As well as modern, polka dot, and swirly patterns.

I've just discovered my hidden talents so I'm having a lot of fun with exploring different things.

I really enjoy primitive art & cute tole painted country-type stuff...

I'm new at this so please be patient with me until I get the hang of it!

If I'm your partner or you're mine, feel free to contact me at anytime! I want to ensure that I'm sending something you'll enjoy. I don't want to seem entirely ungrateful after someone has put time and thought into a swap, but I have listed a few dislikes so I can avoid giving away something because I don't like it. I think a lot of thought goes into something like this and so I'd really like to appreciate what someone has given me.

Personally, I will not ship something that I would not enjoy receving myself -ie I will not ship used, or slightly used items, nor will I ship trash. I'm sure we all have those standards.

• Mocha or Coffee flavoured things
• Pictures or postcards with dogs or cats or "cutesy" things.
• Extremely dark chocolate. I do enjoy about 35% or 40% cocoa, but anything beyond that would be pushing it - I think.
• Cutesy child like things ex. Disney character stickers, pencils, pens - However, Tinkerbell, Hello Kitty & Winnie the Pooh ARE acceptable :)
• Beads or jewelry making stuff - although if you've already made the bracelet or earrings I'd really enjoy that!
• Religious things - Don't preach to me and I won't preach to you. Everyone has the freedom to their own religion and that also calls for the appropriate time and place to excerise that freedom.
• Cheap sticky lipgloss - I LOVE Maybelline Berrylicious (the clear stuff) it's my fav! Can never get enough...or the wetslicks in a light pink
• Cheap icky chocolate & creme filled chocolates - like orange or strawberry. I do enjoy Ferreo Rocher, Lindor, and Aero Mint bars!
• Useless and Random Dollar Store items - by that I mean Duct Tape, Fly Swatters,or Religious Figurines. Don't get me wrong, there are some nice scrapbooking items there, along with some nice stationary, but most items are cheap and junky. But, I'm not picky...most of the time.
