Hello! I am an 18 year old college student. I enjoy embroidery and creating soft toys. Also, I am learning how to crochet and quilt. Other than crafting, I also like to write and play video games.
I swap on other sites, but I'm new to this one. I only do online swaps (ie: email) during the summer because I travel a lot with my family. I do swaps through mail during the school year.
When I send packages with delivery confirmation/tracking numbers, they'll be emailed to you.
Misc List of Stuff I Like
I am good at crafts involving needles, but embroidery is my best. I do some cross-stitching, but I don't like buying the kits. Felt toys and bags are the things I sew the most often, but I can make other things with patterns.
I can crochet a scarf, but I can't knit. I know how to bind books and make journals. And I like to try new crafts, so I'll probably add more to the list.
My favorite bands are the Eagles, Simon and Garfunkel, Duran Duran, the Shins, Arcade Fire, and the Ventures. My favorite artists are Cat Stevens and James Taylor.
My favorite books are Writing With Style, Les Miserables, Prelude to Foundation, Gods and Generals, The Guns of the South, How to be Good, Dreamland, The Boat Who Wouldn't Float, Watchmen, Journey To the Centre of the Earth, Three Men in a Boat, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim, Never Let Me Go, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, The Tipping Point, The Gods Themselves, Emotional Intelligence, The Green Mile, Welcome to the Monkey House and Speaker for the Dead.
(I like to read.)
I don't really watch a lot of movies, but here are some of the ones I watched and liked: A Bug's Life, Aladdin, Fiddler on the Roof, Doctor Horrible, Revenge Of The Sith, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Kung Fu Hustle, Shaolin Soccer, A Christmas Story, The Holy Grail, Trainspotting, The God of Cookery, Fantastic Mr. Fox, X-Men 3 and Pirate Radio. I also like pretty much every Pixar movie, so I didn't list all of them.
I like these TV shows: Unwrapped, How It's Made, Pokemon, MythBusters, Good Eats, SpongeBob Square Pants, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, Family Feud, Modern Marvels, Suze Orman Show, The Office, and Ace of Cakes.
I am kind of a casual video game player. My favorites are the Phoenix Wright series, SSBM and its sequel, the Wind Waker, Resident Evil 4, Elite Beat Agents, Earthbound (but not its sequel), Rayman Raving Rabbids, Psychonauts, Portal, and the Metal Slug series.

hihi, no problem! :) Happy swappin'!
Hi Michele, I'm one of your partners for the "READ A PROFILE" swap. WOW you are a busy girl! I'm so amazed at how you can keep track of all that you do. And to be a student too. You are amazing. I love your choices in musicians. I like most of those too although I don't know who The Shins or Arcade Fire are. But I will google them to see, since we share the same taste. I'm impressed that you like Susie Orman too. As young as you are it's good that you are thinking about your financial future. Never, and I mean never is it too early to start making those serious plans. Although i haven't read any of the books that you have listed I am going to check those out too. I am a crafter (mostly sewing) that loves to LISTEN to my books on my iPod. Multitasking is what I love o do, and besides if I'm listening to my books then I can do lots of different things.........like dust, do dishes, craft, knit etc. You might like to try that too.
Well, I will leave you with these last words: Do your best in all that you do and it will do your heart good. carriel
Happy Vacation! Where are you traveling to? When you vacation do you have something that you collect from each spot?
Oh, I guess I should let you know I'm your partner for the profile swap. As I was reading your book list, I thought how read this person is and then I saw your age ... how did you get hooked on the classics?
I love!!! Fiddler on the Roof. My Mom took me to the theatre as a very young girl to see it, have seen it on Broadway, have the soundtrack and also the DVD. ;-) Needless to say, I know the words for the movie and the songs.
How did you get starting on swapping? What are you studying in school?
Happy Vacation!! Bless ~ Suzy
Hi there,
This a friendly reminder that you got till 13 august to send your "Youtube your musician swap".
Hi Michelle!
I'm your partner for the read my profile swap and it was fun reading your profile :)
I'm so jealous you are good with needles, as I am really bad with them, so I mainly swap postcards (at least for now, I'm also still new to this and getting the hang of things but I am already loving it!)
I hope you are enjoying your vacation, I wonder where you went. My family loves travelling too, we go twice a year to someplace either new or to revisit a favorite place :)
I also love reading but I haven't read the books on your list yet, maybe after I finish reading the books i got from the bookstore i could try reading one of your favorites :)
