About Me

I'm Lindsay, I'm 22, and I'm a college student from western New York. I'm a writer, I knit, and I have three pet guinea pigs. I am currently applying to graduate school for a degree in creative writing. Feel free to check out my blog if you want to know more about me.

I'm new to swap-bot, but I'm not a flake, so I hope you won't hold that against me.

Favorite Music

Ani DiFranco, Tegan & Sara, Iron & Wine, Deb Talan, Regina Spektor, Melissa Ferrick, Kat Flint, Lady Gaga, Black Eyed Peas, Zac Brown Band, Taylor Swift, Sugarland, Sarah McLachlan, Kate Nash, Tracy Chapman.

Favorite Television

Favorite Crafts

Knitting (I mostly knit scarves with a bulkier-weight yarn on size 13+ needles), book-binding (I'm still learning), scrapbooking.

Things I Like

Writing Utensils (pens & pencils): as I said, I'm a writer, and as I write mostly by hand, these always come in handy. I like funky/weird ones, or any that you find particularly awesome for writing.

Scrapbooking supplies: I am not picky. I love doing it, but I don't have many supplies. Paper, scraps you have lying around, stickers, etc.

Quotes: I'm a big collector. Your favorites, especially if they are written/decorated in a cool way and can be hung up on my wall, are always a plus.

Postcards: especially ones for where you live. I haven't traveled much, but I have a postcard collection that includes cards from twelve different countries (all from friends) and I would love to add more from different states/regions/countries.

Food-wise: I really like chocolate, especially chocolate and peanut butter combinations, or chocolate covered pretzels. I love peanut M&Ms, skittles, Mr. Good Bars, and pink and orange Starburst. I'd also love to try candy that I can't get in the U.S.

Weird/quirky stuff: I am always on the look out for cool things, like weird newspaper articles or odd objects that are just cool to look at.

A Few Things To Know About Me

I'm very open-minded and friendly, and I like trying new things, so if you think "I like this, maybe she will, too," I will, at the least, enjoy the experience.

I'm very liberal, socially and economically and politically, and I'm also not religious. As I said, I'm open-minded about other beliefs and cultures, but I don't want to be "converted," you know what I mean?

I'm not very "girly": I wear mostly guys' clothing, I don't wear make-up, I have very short hair, etc. I do, however, like the color pink and some stereotypically "feminine" pastimes, such as knitting, baking, scrapbooking, etc., but I'm really not into Lisa Frank/Hello Kitty type of stuff.
