anaheimblackmailer

I'm a college student in Austin, TX. I'm a Women's Studies major and I work in my school's library. My screen name is an anagram of my full name. I have never been to Anaheim, nor do I engage in blackmail.

I always send my swaps and will let you know if something is going to be late, so please PM before rating me if there's a problem. I am late on some swaps right now because I just finished my final exams. I'm so glad they're done so I can get caught up on my swaps! I'm so sorry to my partners who have had to wait, and I'm hoping to get all my late swaps out within the next week or two.

Collage, zines, photography, mail art, altered books, handmade books, journals. I don't knit or crochet but I would love to receive a handmade hat, scarf, socks, or legwarmers.

• zines
• polaroid film
• natural bath products-- I love Burt's Bees, I'd like to try LUSH, and homemade soap would be great too!
• lip balm, especially natural and/or homemade
• Dutch-language magazines (I was an exchange student in the Netherlands in high school)
• journals
• stationery with The Little Prince on it
• airmail stationery
• feminist or vegetarian themed magazines (send me your back issues of BUST!)
• a matchbox or cigar box shrine
• a "freak" stuffie or amigurumi-- i.e. siamese twin teddy bears, a two-headed sock monkey, an octopus with a few etra tentacles...
• region 1 DVDs of any Dutch or Bollywood films

Edibles:

• vegetarian recipes and cookbooks
• tea (preferably not loose)-- my favorite is chai, and I also love herbal and fruity flavors
• chocolate (any kind except white, coconut-filled, or raisin), particularly the kinds listed below
• Kinder Bueno
• Aero (aka Bros)
• Ritter Sport
• Toblerone
• Cadbury from the UK (we have Cadbury in the US, but it's not nearly as good)
• hot chocolate mixes
• Tim Tams (I've never tried them, but they sound good)
• unusual flavors of Pocky (I've tried chocolate and strawberry-- I'm particularly curious about toffee, chocolate almond, and striped)

My ephemera wishlist:

• medical/anatomical diagrams, especially hearts
• maps, especially vintage maps and maps of large cities
• pages or images from The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in ANY language
• text in a language other than English
• sheet music
• tarot cards
• Hindu god/goddess images
• bird images
• postage etiquettes, i.e. "air mail," "return to sender," especially on stickers or rubber stamps
• a set of alphabet rubber stamps

• The Little Prince (aka Le Petit Price)
• Frida Kahlo
• feminism
• geishas
• Ukiyo-e/Japanese woodblock prints, especially Utamaro
• drawings/diagrams of anatomically correct hearts
• handmade things
• polaroid and photobooth pictures
• Hindu mythology/iconography
• Greek mythology
• fairy tales
• travel
• maps
• vegetarian cooking
• dreams
• The Muppets
• octopi
• pirates
• scents: citrus is my favorite, and I also love spicy scents like ginger and cloves.
• colors: I like everything but bright pink, but my favorites are deep red (crimson/burgundy), blue, purple, green, and black.

• meat products
• anything made of leather or fur
• perfume
• bright pink (think Barbie)
• Anime
• character kawaii
• Lord of the Rings/high fantasy
• cartoon characters
• conservative politics
• anything trying to convert me to your religion
• anything that is prejudiced/racist/homophobic

Don't censor yourself, though-- I don't mind getting swaps with nudity or "bad" language. I'm also fine with getting used/thrift store/garage sale items, as long as they're still usable.

Amelie, Casablanca, Stranger Than Fiction, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Science of Sleep, I Heart Huckabees, Dummy, Empire Records, Saved!, Benny & Joon, Frida, Lagaan, Plan 9 From Outer Space

I also love foreign films (especially Bollywood) and short films.

My favorite actors are Audrey Tatou, Humphrey Bogart, Katharine Hepburn, and Johnny Depp.

Sondre Lerche, Bishop Allen, Okkervil River, Rilo Kiley, Voxtrot, Beirut, Sufjan Stevens, The Postal Service, Architecture in Helsinki, The Arcade Fire, Final Fantasy, Fiona Apple, Smoosh, The Cliks, Ben Folds, Ben Kweller, Janis Joplin, Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson.

I love covers.
