About Me
TO MY OVERSEAS SWAP PARTNERS I often opt for surface mail because of postage cost. It may take more than 2 weeks. Mail can get really weird. A mail took 9 days to reach Belgium. Once, two packages to USA took months (literally). One to UK took over a month. All I'm asking is for your patience! Thank you!
I believe strongly in karma and I believe in 2nd chances. Be nice to me & I'll be nice too! If you have not received something from me - which I hope nothing like that ever happens - please contact me before leaving me a 1 rating & we'll arrange for me to send you a second time, if possible.
Hello, I'm Jolene and I'm from all-year-round sunny Singapore. (Only Summer in this country!) Thank you for browsing my profile!
I'm turning 19 in September 20th (Virgo), currently taking diploma in Visual Communications (Graphic Design & Advertising). Generally, I like art-related stuff, photography, music, film and good reads.
Since I'm in a design school, I can't predict when I'll get really busy because art is a funny thing, y'know? But I try to manage and balance out my time :) I'm sorry if I ever mail your swap out late, I'd be sure to inform you but I hope you understand that school is my 1st priority.
I'm a very open-minded person. Nudity is okay with me. Just don't be rude, thanks.
I like learning about new cultures, languages, religions, etc. Living in a multi-racial country made me very tolerant and patient towards others. I am also in an interracial relationship. I'm Chinese, a free-thinker, raised by a Buddhist family and studied in Methodist schools for 14 years. My beau is Indian Muslim, and if we marry, I'll have to convert to Islam.
Recently, I became a mommy to 2 kittens - Susu (black & white; male) and Koi (orange & black & white; female). They're my first pets in years, and my first cats! Donate some cat toys to them!!!
In my free time, I watch movies, shop online, listen to music and blog.
I have NO allergies.

HI! I sent an email too, just in case, but please stop by my blog: Stay Sane Inside Insanity at http://keverly.blogspot.com
(It also links to my other sites.) Please stop by often, comment & share, thanks!
Ahhh...i did indeed go back and check the descriptions on your photos, wasn't a criticism by the way, i found it interesting and yeah, i was waaay off the mark with eg. the bamboo. Not sure what i thought it was, though hehe. Thanks, anyway :)
Sue x
Ps. Just noticed, we have the same birthday, but a year apart, so thought i'd tell you, like you wanted to know lol, but i'm nice like that. :)
Sure! a 1 on 1 for this swap http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/4858 would be great! I could do it in August, once I get my tuition deferral paid :)
I loved the fave colour swap it was awesome! :)
Let me know if you don't get the candy. I know how important it is to receive something nice in the mail, whether it's a card or letter or just something! You should see people's faces light up all day long. This is such a wonderful job.
Have you tried Global priority mail? It may be pretty spendy, but I know there is a flat rate envelope that you can mail up to 4 pounds in (if it fits). I know surface mail to a country overseas means surface, as in boat, as in when the container is full , it goes on the boat. However long all that stuff takes, then it goes by truck after that. That's why it is so darn slow.
Believe me, surface mail from the states to Hawaii is not recommended due to the length of time (can take up to 6 weeks).
So try to find light things if you can and mail air mail if at all possible.
Let me know if you need any help.
I just joined today and saw your comment about Reese's. What a shame! We have tons here and they are not my fave (although I love those tastes separately). I work for the US Post Office (I am a Postmaster). Let me know if you don't receive any.
I loved everything in it thank you very much.
I almost didn't believe it but it's here already! Thank you very much for the surprize package! I love it ! soo cute. Yay for fast surface mail!
Yeah, we do. Gotta love Romeo and Juliet <3
We should a random swap one time :D
