SheSins

I feel horrible, lately people have been messaging me and there has been no email notification sent to my gmail inbox, therefore I didn't come on here because I have not had the time to do so. Im not ignoring anyone I just didnt know! Sorry!

Please let me know before you rate me a one/three. There are a lot of non-raters out there so I naturally assume that is what has happened. Please let me know you haven't received my swap!

Lets see.... I never like filling these out, its so hard for me!I have diverse tastes. I love to learn about/experience new things so throw your most eclectic ideas, crafts, and facts at me! I like to read, I like movies. I enjoy crafting but dont get much time to do.

I love languages. Im in university learning spanish, french, and japanese. I would like to learn more.
I love traveling.

I would love to recieve (Japanese) Kawaii things (sticker flakes/sacks, deco tape, memo pads, etc!!) Since kawaii swaps are quickly turning into my main type of swap, theres a section about my likes/dislikes a little below!

I will always rate my partners when I recieve things. I will notice if youve tried to include things I like from my profile, and I will love you for it! I tend not to rate down because you're a late, though please PM me first. I understand things come up.

I do re-gift/re-swap items that are not my style/I couldn't use. Please dont be offended, if you would like your items to not be re-gifted please tell me so. However, I will never re-gift/re-swap an item handmade for me. Ever.

Please don't send items that smell like smoke, thanks.

Generally, its easier for me to tell you things I dont like rather than things I do (because the things I do like are so varied)!! So here goes (haha after re-reading these I just noticed what does half of them have to do with swapping anyways?!? Im so silly sometimes)

-Children/babies. Never. Want. Any.

-Meat/meat products/I have a preference on products not tested on animals or with no animal products in them as I am a vegetarian.

-Im not big on western religion/spirituality. While I am open to the fact that you are, I hope you can understand that im not.
Mhh, a little more on this. I am interested in asian religions. I dont think i'll ever learn much about them, however, the incorporation of their deities into every day life is so essential and important to nearly every person who lives in asian countries.... its amazing.

-I have an intolerance for the intolerant. Conundrum, I know. I think you should be able to not hold the beliefs of others, but be able to respect them.

-Coffee. I like coffee flavoured things but I dont like coffee (As with most "flavoured" things, I find that coffee flavoured foods/candy/etc dont taste the same as coffee)
