About Me

I'm 26. I am a vegan. I work in the healthcare industry with persons with disabilities. I also go to school part time online from my local community college back home. In my spare time I like to volunteer, hang out with my boyfriend or friends, cook, write, make zines, etc!

Favorite Music

indie pop and rock! hip hop, retro rock, adele, simon and garfunkel, camera obscura, beck, the smiths, the cure, kimya dawson, elvis perkins, mates of state, david bowie, amanda palmer/dresden dolls, mgmt, random songs I find random places then download on itunes

Favorite Movies

(I don't keep favorite movies for very long except for my all time favorite movie Amelie) but lately I really like Juno, Almost Famous, Slumdog Millionaire, Little Miss Sunshine, Scoop. I am bad at keeping up with recent movies.

Favorite Crafts

Sewing, embroidery, paper crafts, decoupage, art, photography, crafty business ventures, attempting to knit

Things that bother me

Personal attacks, Racism, Disrespect, Feeling unworthy; like crap, Insensitivity, Judgments, Stupidity, Poor spelling or lazy abbreviations (u=you)

Things I like for extras

ephemera, fabric scraps, anything aqua/turquoise colored, 1" buttons, notes, anything handmade

random themey things i like

burlesque, pin up girls, halloween, classic monsters, cabaret punk, japan, geisha, folk art, mexico, sugar skulls, lush fresh cosmetics, japanese magazine cut outs, sanrio and san-x characters, anything old school, glittery stuff, old polaroid cameras, typewriters, baking, cupcakes, blythe the doll, silkscreen prints, collage, mannequins, paper dolls, bicycles, cats, old photographs of random people I don't know, etc

things I don't want to get in

stuff that isn't vegan friendly anything to do with any sort of hate

If we're doing a swap related to Japan (as I love all things Japanese) I don't want to see Chinese things, do you're research. Nothing against Chinese culture, it's just stupid when you confuse these two countries together as they are very different.

Comment: Dear Laura, I was so surprised when I came back from my 4 weeks vacation through China when I opened your envelope. It was really like I was in China again. Your box really is looking chinese. I really love it. And the pearls..... we "drunk" them also in China. So funny. You really made my day. Thank you so much. You made me realise how special and beautiful and great my vacation was. And of course I like all the teas and I will drink them with lots of pleasure and keep the teatags. Thank you again very much. I'm sure we will meet again on Swap-bot. Till then.... Happy Swapping!!

Comment: For someone who was worried that she didn't know me and couldn't think of anything that would be special enough you know me better than my own family seems to at times. I love Cicely Mary Barker and blank journals and especially Carolina Card ones. You did excellently.

Comment: Love it! I put "Lovefool" on my cd too; it makes me think of watching Romeo + Juliet and drooling over Leonardo DiCaprio, lol!

i share a PO Box with a friend, she is responsible for checking it bc i live 20 minutes away... she said she has multiple packages for me, i should be able to collect them tomorrow. i imagine your package is probably among them, i will let you know as soon as i know for certain.

No, I totally get that! I had a similar impression of Metallica and their fans, until my current boyfriend opened my mind on the issue. That's why I wanted to reach out to you... no hard feelings and all that. =) It's so hard to convey certain "tones" through the internet! But I hope you enjoy your cds!

lunagoddesswithin on Mar 3, 2008:

Hi Laura! Keep an eye out for your "I Miss the 90's" cd which was sent out over the weekend. No worries, the Dave Matthews song I wanted to put on it had an error so the cd is DMB free. ;) Anyway, once I realized you were one of my partners I thought I'd come by & say hello. Take care! Juanita
