Hello! My real name is Lauren but I go by Elizabeth or Lizzie, which is what my friends call me. But I am trying to switch it back to Lauren because of my new life here at college :) Oh! I also live in L.A. :) I love to create things and I specialize in jewelry crafts. I was a girl scout for 12 years so I guess that's where all the crafty stuff came from. My favorite movies are: Heathers, City of Angels, My Sister's Keeper, Dogma, A wrinkle in time, Speak, etc. My favorite book: What happened to lani garver, by carol plum ucci (also my fav. author) I work as a secretary at a tax business. I'm on here to swap cool things and have fun. Maybe make a few friends in the process. :)

My favorite artists/bands are Alanis Morissette, Peter Gabriel, Linkin Park, Taylor Swift, Pink, Lady Gaga (I love her style), Duran Duran, Madonna, STP, etc.

I love songs from John Mayer, Kelly Clarkson, Aerosmith, Nirvana, Carrie Underwood, Regina Spektor, Imogen Heap, Pearl Jam, and others.

I don't like rap too much. Only certain songs. And the only country singers I like are Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, and a couple others. But other than that I like music. I'm just more of an alternative/pop gal . :)

I have a list of movies that I like. Here we go :) : Speak, My Sister's Keeper, Dogma, The Holiday, Spirited Away, Saved, Heathers, Harry Potter series, Cry baby, Bubble boy, 13 Ghosts, a Wrinkle in Time, Bobby, Breakfast Club, Up, etc.

I like all movies. Scary movies I don't watch too much because I'm scared of them. :P But i watch them. :) But yeah, ill watch anything. Really. :)

Right now I love journal-ling.

But I also love: Jewelry making, as I said before. I know how to crochet, but I'm not that good. :P I love using old pieces of things and creating new things with them. I love altering books and journals. I love writing. I also do scrap booking, but that's not my main craft. I do about anything. I'm always open to new things. :)

Journals and Journal Supplies, beads (i'm crazy for these), findings (for jewlery), good books (i love to read), quotes (I love recieving those), creative pieces, inspiration, crafts/items, good movie titles, good songs, mixed cds, postcards from all 50 states (one of my goals in life it to acquire all of the postcards :) ), cute things, stories, post secret, anything to do with the circus :) Especially the old circuses (ex: side-shows, they are soo interesting:) ), flip books, ephemera, stuff for packaging: Examples of that would be envelopes, stamps, tags, labels, sharpies. :) Asian candies/snacks. Anything Kawaii. Letter sets. Memo sheets, sticker flakes.

I'm really easy to please. I love it when people surprise me. :)

fairies, moon, stars, anything with astronomy, books, mystical creatures, gaudy-ness, romance, adventure, harry potter!!!! etc. :)

I also love decos, slams, atcs, matchboxes, zines. :)

I love love love Journals, written in and blank. Plus items for journal making.

Handmade envelopes are amazing also, they are so neat!!! :)

If I am your partner and you do not get my swap then please tell me. I try to send my items right away so it gives a lot of time for the packages to the location desired. I will definitely resend any swaps that don't make it through. :)

If I am not able to send my swap by the due date I will message my partner about it. My driver happens to be my Uncle, since I don't have access to a car, and my Uncle takes serious doses of pain medication for his back. On somedays he takes too much medicine and he gets "high." And it is not safe for me to be in the car with him. These "high" days have been getting more frequent, so I am sorry if I cannot met the due date. But I usually am able to send it the day after the due date. So, its not incredibaly too late. I'm very sorry about that.
