Iie.

I'm a College Student, artist, writer, zinester, crafter, geek, and gamer. My life revolves around the people I love, literature, music, and art. I love to write, craft, listen to music, read (books & zines, especially), and debate. I really, really love post-rock & indie-rock, but I like all types of music, really.

Journey, Heart, Mogwai, Lifehouse, Nirvana, Sonic Youth, Wolf Parade, Ben Folds, Dashboard Confessional, Goo Goo Dolls, Incubus, Train, The Juliana Theory, Cat Power, Alice In Chains, Nine Inch Nails, The Cruxshadows

Hard Love, the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter series, the Harry Potter series, The Twilight Series, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Cut, Speak, Razzle, Home To You, Time Enough For Drums, the Kent Family Chronicles

Knitting, Latch Hooking, Jewelry Making, Clay-Crafts, Paper Crafts, Scrap Booking

(Random fact: If you send me scrap yarn, a magic Knitting fairy will come and give you a 1-Up Mushroom in your sleep!)

I have a major fetish for....PANDAS!

My favorite color's are Purple, Green, Burgundy, Blue, Black, & Silver.

I'm a major Japanophile (I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE anything Japanese! The language, culture, food, entertainment, clothing, anything!).

I really, really love Celtic & Gaelic culture/language, as well, but that's probably just the Irish / Scottish girl in me.

I have a great deal of interest in world religions, primarily Eastern Religions (Hinduism, Shinto, Buddhism), and European Paganism. However, I take a great deal of interest in Western religion like Christianity & Judaism as well.

I'm a video game JUNKIE from the fiery pits of Geekiness. And I fangirl out, HARD over my games. (Final Fantasy has owned me since I was 2 years old.)

I also love odds and ends for crafting, so if I'm ever in a "random things" swap and you happen to have some spare paper bits, yarn, or ribbon laying around...I'm all over it.

I'm also a Zine-junkie. I try to collect them, because frankly, I find them fascinating beyond all reason.

Still don't know enough about me for a swap? Message me and ask me what you want to know! (^-^)
