Good Day Loverly World!

My Name is Amanda but many people also know me as Mia. You are free to choose whichever nomenclature you most prefer, either one is fine with me. I'm 26 years old and have my mature moments and kid moments. I try to keep myself positive and in a sunny disposition as much as possible. They do say that you catch more flies with Honey than you do with vinegar... though it is fun to add a little sauciness in there from time to time. I currently work as a Receptionist/Administrative Assistant for and HCS Company that helps people with Mental Health and Mental Retardation. I love my job but I cannot wait to go back to school so that I can become a teacher.

I'm Quirky and cheery and I like to think that I'm pretty fun! I'm really excited about this site and cant wait to exchange my first handwritten letter! ^_^

The New Girl; Glee (though I don't like this current season of it); Once Upon A Time; American Horror Story; Big Bang Theory;

I also love to watch anything about the Paranormal and rewatch episodes of Friends and Arrested Development.

I have enjoyed my experiences with crafting and am hoping to expand my abilities. I enjoy painting, drawing, making candles, and random papercrafts. I recently have learned how to knit and obsessed with it!!!
