About Me

Alt textAlt text

Alt text

Hello! My name is Becca. I'm 24, I'm a Libra, I live in NJ, Second gen. Russian chica in my family, and engaged to an amazing man named Steven. He is so good to me, and makes the best mexican food I've ever had! nom nom nom!! (ha! i love to nom.) I love to sew and craft, I also have a huge collection of kawaii goodies that seems to keep growing and it makes my hubby insane!! I am completely OBSESSED with Hello Kitty. I have her tattooed on the top of my ice cream cone on my right sleeve, and my wedding band is actually Hello Kitty as well! My hubby is currently in Arizona to finish up school, so thankfully I have found this website to hopefully pass some time while I am waiting for him to come home (I am flying out to visit him in August, so I am so so excited for that!). Hmm what else.. I have a 2 lb. chihuahua named Tomek (ha! I love my taco babies!).

Alt text My occupation is a hair stylist. I am an extension specialist for Balmain and Cinderella Hair. If you are wondering about my hair, it is actually quite short naturally! I have Balmain fusion extenions in my hair. They are bonded to the hair with a keratin bod which will expand and contract in water so your hair will not get ruined in the bond! Its very cool and I love being able to see the look on people faces when they see theit new beautiful long hair! I also make fancy clip-in extension, so if you are interested in having fun hair like me, let me know! Maybe I will open up a small etsy shop or something. i also really enjoy making kawaii hairclips, headbands, and other hair accessories!

I am going back to school in January for Occupational Therapy as well :). I will be leaving NJ and going to San Diego to go to school. I'm very excited, it's been a dream of mine for a very long time to go to school for this, and I have finally saved up enough money to do it! I want nothing more in the world then to help these amazing children.

Updates

8-21-2009: I'm doing slightly better now. This is really the first time I've sat at the computer in about a week. Thank you all SO much for your kind and thoughtful messages, they really ment so much to me. I find it so amazing how you all barely even know me and somehow you've all reached out to me. They all make me tear up a bit, its nice to know that I have real friends here

Favorite Crafts

I really love to make recycled art. I really enjoy going to thrift stores, yardsales, and sometimes dumpster diving (haha!) to find random stuff to turn into something fantastic! Recently, I have been really into making mini Dia De Los Muertos/Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe altars & creepy altered toy shrines similar to my favorite artist, Jane Wynn. I really love to make colleges, and those are probably my favorite types. I love working with lots of different & interesting ephemera, glitter, paints, texturizers, wallpaper, metal, wood, toys… You name it! If it speaks to me, I use it! I’ve recently started to tamper with making mini ones to put on necklaces or make broaches out of, but I’ve never completely finished one yet, sadly. I have also recently started to fall back to my original love of sewing. Again, hunting down different pieces, cutting them up, and sewing them back together to make something original that no one else will ever have! I really love to work with different vintage fabrics (mostly cotton with interesting prints) as well as vintage notions (I’m opened to pretty much anything cool I can find), and merging them with new fabrics to make something totally fun and wearable.

I've also started to take interest in doll-making. I havn't made any yet, but I want to start trying my hand at it, as well as making some dotee dolls to give away as well :).

My Wishlist

Alt text

I am moving to San Diego in January, so I'm really trying hard to cut back on all of the "little things" that I get sent in swaps, unless they are something that I really need.... I don't want to have to throw a lot of these things out when I move because I am not taking much with me. Steven and I are buying pretty much all new things when we get there. So my wishlist has been shrunk quite a bit because of this as well.

If you're sending me Jewelry..

Please note that my ears are GAUGED. I am at 9/16ths... if you would like to send me neat gauges thats cool with me!... If you're not, I can ONLY wear dangle earrings with a hook back because I they are the only earrings that I can put thru my tunnels and wear :)... Stud-back really wont do me any good ^-^'.

I do not wear rings (only my rediculious, but beautiful Hello Kitty wedding band!)

If you wanted to send me anything for my lip piercing, it is a 16g, not 14g like most ;)

I have my belly button pierced, and love switching up my jewelry for that!

I really love to wear big chunky rhinestone bracelets :)

  • Little kid characters (Dora, Seseme st, ect.)
  • Spongebob
  • Betty Boop

Comment: After consideration, I have decided to lower my rating... I originally rated a 5, simply because I was in a hurry to catch up from being offline. Now that I've had time to think about the facts, I am re-rating this one a 3... It was marked sent on 08/01. I messaged you on 08/12 to let you know I had not received. The package did not arrive until the first week in September, postmarked 09/02- two weeks after the send date. So I'm rating a 3 for lateness.

@Sugarvixen has asked me to tell everyone to email her tmail (Sidekick) with your address, and the swap she owes you.

It's:

GlamourXPuss@gmail.com

She also said a lot of the swaps she has going on, she already has sent, or has the things for, but just has been so crazy busy with bad things happening, she just hasn't gotten around to it.

Hope this helps a bit!

provadia on Sep 7, 2009:

Becca asked me to let everyone know she has no internet at the house at the moment. All her swaps will go out ASAP, no worries. You can text her on her sidekick if you need her though!

ClaireLouise on Aug 31, 2009:

(My previous comment was re: the newbie profile surprise swap, in case you have several swaps going :-)

adlitam on Aug 17, 2009:

Aww, I hope the package is just delayed and not completely lost! I sent it several weeks ago and it normally only takes a week or so. :-( If it doesn't show up by the end of this week, I'll make you another package!

Love you babygirl<3
