About Me

I'm 27yrs old and I live with my boyfriend and our two cats King Koopa and Goddess Isis. My cats are basicly my kids and love them so much. There are only a few times in my life where I didnt have a pet. I love animals so much. I'm the 2nd oldest of my dad's kids, but apprently he thinks of me as the oldest. I' have an older brother and an younger half sister and younger half brother on my dad's side.

I love to make crafts and just started to get into jewelry making. I'm a natural cook according to my family. Lately I've been reading books like crazy since I'm never had the time like I do now. I love to travel but dont have the money to do so. My top 3 places to go at some point are Japan, Ireland and Russia. I love to cook and wish I could open up my own cafe.

VERY IMPORTANT: I've been diagnosed as pre-diabetic so if you are sending me food items please send SUGAR-FREE.

Cosplay

I'm a cosplayer, so I love to sew. What is cosplay? Its costume play. You dress up as your fave anime, movie, comic book or even video game character. I go to a monthly meetup to hang out with other cosplayers in the Seattle area. I try to make my own costumes if possible. I've mainly been making humanoid verisons of pokemon costumes lately but will start to sew other costumes soon.

I'm just starting to get into Steampunk as well. I've always loved it but never found it practical to be able to wear the clothes other then to steampunk meetups or cons.

Oh because I love cosplaying I also love Halloween. Its my fave holiday.

Favorite Books

Too many to name so I'll just say that I love books that are about the supernatural/fantasy. Plus if it has romance and the supernatural/fantasy/occult I tend to read those series more.

Some of my fave series:

Night World

The House of Night

Twilight

Harry Potter

Dark Guardian

I'm taking an interest in Vampire Academy and Wolves of Mercy Falls Series.

Favorite Television

I like political comedy shows like The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. But then I also like comedies like The Office, Family Guy, American Dad, Robot Chicken, Boondocks and Futurama.

Favorite Crafts

Knitting: I've been knitting since I was 18yrs old. No one in my family knew how to knit so no one showed me how. I learned by reading the knitting books from the library close to my parent's house. I tend to make mainly small things since no one in my family wants anything other then a hat. I have made myself a sweater and it was so soft and I loved it until a neighborhood dog ripped it from off the clothes line over 5 years and since I have not made anything big again. My skin is rather sensitive so soft natural fibers (sorry no wool, I'm allergic) or super soft acrylic yarns are what i use for myself.

Sewing: I was once told that I'm a natural seamstress but I never belived that since sewing a straight line was difficult for me until recently. I've recently made shorts out of 2 shirts for my gijinka Jigglypuff cosplay outfit.

Photography: I'm amateur photographer. I normally just take pictures of people in my cosplay group. Some are really great without me needing to photoshop them.

Jewelry making: I'm just getting into wire jewelry making. I find it fun but expensive.

Scrapbooking: I also do some scrapbooking. I live vintage/elegant papers as well as asian themed and ribbons. I dont have many stamps so those would be nice.

Favorite Movies

Harry Potter, French Kiss and Office Space are among the list of over 200 that I love.

Favorite Music

I like all kinds. As long as it has a good beat, I can listen to it.I like to listen to dance/trance music for those happy times where I need to beat to dance to, but then I also listen to jpunk or punk rock when I feel abit of a dark mood coming on.

The king and goddess

Koopa or King Koopa, King being his title is part Bengal, no not the tiger. Bengals are a breed that came from a domestic cat being breed with an Asian Leopard. He loves to jump in the back of the shower and scare the crap out of me. Bengals love water and will often wade thru it for fun. He is 2 yrs old.

Isis or goddess Icey is a black domestic cat we adopted from the Humane Society for Christmas last year. I feel in love with her since she was a black cat and I always wanted one, but then she took to us so easily that we knew we had to adopt her. We were told she is 2 years old but she seems older.

When the king saw the goddess he fall in love. However, it wasn't the way we thought it would be. He followed her everywhere she went. Why? Because he saw her as a play toy to chase. Icey didn't feel the same. In fact all she did was hiss and growl for the 1st month (Thats where Icey comes from. She was so cold hearted toward Koopa) after they were introduced. I figured it was because she use to be a street and didn't trust other cats mainly boy cats since she had a kitten when she was brought in to the Humane Society. Isis also believes that she is princess as she refuses to open partial closed doors for herself.

It has not changed much since then but now when Koopa follows her, she runs and starts up the chase.

Comment: Dear tiffachan, Thank you for the painting of the knotwork heart. I love the theme of hearts and it is so timely as my mom just reccently had a heart attack. She is okay and doing well, but the heart is always on my mind. Keep enjoying your creative journey. Cheers, Le Papillon Vert
Response: You're very welcome as I thought a heart is the best to give as a knot. I'm glad your mother is doing well.
