Hi! Well I live in England with my Fiance booked to be married 30 June 2011 :D
I work full time so I have to keep myself busy and make the most of my weekends/evenings so I dont die of boredom.
I have a few penpals who I write to regulary and I love receiving post from them all and hearing how their doing :D
Since joining this site Im slowly working my way up to braver swaps for different things and am really enjoying setting myself challenges of new things to try and love keepying my eyes open when im out and about for any new materials I can use in some way or another! I used to do alot of painting and drawing but due to space constrictions in our flat I have no room and am stuck in the small corner of my sofa. But im gradually doing little arty bits which Im loving, like making Inchies as just so many variations you can make :) not tried ATCs yet but I will do when I think up a nice idea. I love comic characters and comic books, I dont always read the comics themselves but I love the pictures and draw comic book covers onto A3 paper.
I love all sorts of movies and watch a good few each week. Any genre is game with me, I love cartoons though, i have always liked animation and probably always will :D Favourites include: Pirates of the Caribean (only the first one), Lord of the rings, Transformers, Love actually, The Santa Clause, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Sweeny Todd.
I wouldnt say I have one set craft. I like to make inchies as its jsut a simple way to make a small interesting piece thats nice to look at, but also being able to experiment and not worry if ideas dont work out.
Other craft types I can do are sewing, knitting, painting (is that a craft?)
I like collecting fun/interesting images and keeping them until one day I think O I know what would be a good idea! and then ill sit and make something.
I read alot and couldnt choose my favourite book as generally the book I read in the hear and now is my favourite book as its the one i am reading (unless its awful)
I generally like sci fi type books but not just spaceships schooming around in space. I still appreciate a good story. If i read chick lit I get very stressed waiting for the point where it all goes wrong and then everyone crys and its like why bother? you know your sister was sleeping with your husband, but its fine cos you now fancy the gardener anyway who happens to inherit a load of cash so can support you and your son grrrrr.
I watch a huge range of tv shows as there is just so much on most of the time! but all my favourite shows always start at the same time so I am so spoilt for choice! But they all also finish at the same time leaving me a bit empty lol
Stargate has always been a favourite others I like are: Supernatural (Scary just got very sexy), The Sanctuary, Merlin, Robin Hood, Futurama, Family Guy, South park, Dragon Ball Z. Burn Notice Breaking Bad Dexter
So yeah my taste is varied, I also like the nature chanel but only when its interesting animals I dont like birds their just a bit meh.
Well a massive influence on what I like are my computer games :D im always buying them even though I have the rule of dont buy a new one until ive completed one! eek.
Ones i like and can thinnk of right now are:
Harvest Moon is awsome and soooo cute! Puzzle Quest Kingdom Hearts Shadow Hearts Dragons Aria Mario Lucifers Call Star Ocean Wild Arms (III)
so yeah they are mainly RPGs but i also do love the odd shoot em up, racing games or other some of those i can think of are:
Grand Theft auto series (i love doing the missions) Motor Storm WarHawk
ok so general stuff I like:
Chocolate with nunts in, nougart, baklava, chewy candies (jelly type sweets) but nothing with that fizzy sour sugar on Nice paper, surprises, stuff which is one thing but looks like something else, stickers, jack skelington, the seaside, comics, black gel type pens, cartoons, Lilo and Stitch, Cuzco (The Emperors New groove), Ice Age, cute letter sets, crisps, crisp covered peanuts, chocolate (not mint flavoured), sci-fi/fantasy stuff (not fairys), pokemon, Grim and Mandy, nice ribbon and buttons,
Ok well i guess i should put dislikes into one section to save having to read through the whole lot and I know it seems a bit weird doing dislikes, well it does to me just seems rather picky but as everyone else is doing it ill jump on the band wagon this once. i dont like: Hello Kitty anything to do with it, tea, coffee, pink, horses, birds, liqurish (cant spell it but you should get the jist of what it is i mean), Useless things those dotte dolls anything mint or that smells/tastes of mint fairys
