I'm here! I havent gone all AWOL. School is just taking up most of my time, so joining and making swaps have been put on the backburner :P Feel free to contact me if you'd like :)

I'm 23, I'm Canadian and very proud of that. I'm also very German and English too. I'm short, 4'11.5" to be exact, I have auburn (red and brown) hair, hazel (green, blue and brown) eyes and the palest skin ever, so finding foundation and powder for my complexion isnt an easy task. Whenever I do find one, it seems that the company that makes it discontinues it for the next time I try to go and buy it. I just LOVE the orangy-pinky marks around my jawline. As for my eye colour, it seems like ANY colour goes with hazel. I find when it comes to lip things, light pinks suit me best, since I tend to wear a lot of dark makeup on my eyes... it kind of evens my face out, in a way (It doesnt look so heavy). So I think.

I currently am living in Kingston, Ontario for the summer and during the school year, I'm living in a suite with a roommate at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology in Oshawa, Ontario. I will be living there for 6-8 months of the year.However, I'm living with my parents (44 and 46), my sister (20) and my 2 cats (8). From the middle of August to the end of March, my address will be changed to my university one on here. I graduated from St Lawrence College on June 12th, 2008, and I didnt want to stop at just an Arts and Science diploma. I'll be studying Criminology and Justice, but I'm not completely sure what I want to do with it. Maybe I'll become a correctional officer or a police officer. Who knows at this point :).

I am bisexual... yes, I know, so controversial. I have a boyfriend named Zeleco ♥ .. I am an EXTREMELY liberal (democratic) person. I'm not religious in the least, but that doesnt mean I think it's wrong. Religion just isnt something I chose to believe in. In my mind, it causes too many conflicts and leads people to believe that theyre better than others if their beliefs arent the same. I dont believe in God either. I'm very happy with the values and beliefs that I have and I dont need a higher power or organised religion to save me. Everyone has the right to their own beliefs and values, but I think it's wrong to push them onto other people or to tell other people that what they think or believe in is wrong, because really... none of us know for sure what is right or wrong. I believe that lying, cheating or deception of any kind which will or could potentially hurt someone is wrong. I am a MAJOR feminist, I'm pro-choice, anti-war, anti-rascism, anti-polygamy.. the list goes on.. but I am a very open-minded person, as stubborn as I am. In my mind, everyone is equal.. we are all pink on the inside :).

Anything else you'd like to find out about me? PM me!

I'd love penpals too! If you're into writing letters, I'd love to write to you :)

I support cheaper shipping, so when I send out packages, I'll use surface, unless air is only a little bit more than surface. It will probably take longer than if I were to pay more, but give them time it can take 6-10 weeks in some instances! I send them out on time, or early in some cases. I'm a college student, so tuition is where most of my money goes.

If I'm provided with your email address, I will email you to let you know when I have sent out the package, just so you're not left wondering. :)

I'm very frugal when it comes to the packaging because well, lack of funds (yay college!). So I use bubble mailers which have had things sent to me in them. I make sure the bubble stuff on the inside is still intact and I tape up the end like crazy. Obviously if I dont have any used bubble mailers, I'll buy new ones and use them. I've been looking in a few places for the shiny types and for some coloured bubble wrap. XD

I will do my best to put together nice packages for my swap partners with the information from profiles and whatnot, but, if theres something someone doesnt like, or it doesn't show up, Id like them to contact me before giving me a bad rating so I can try to fix the problem, or send out a new package, in case it's been lost. I also hope to leave nothing but 5's for my partners too :)

I rate every partner I have recieved from, so I really appreciate it when my partners do the same for me! If you havent rated me, I'll send out an email to you once every 2 months to see if you will or not. It leaves me wondering whether or not you recieved anything if you dont leave me some kind of rating.
