2012 January 13th : Sorry, there's been a lot of things going on in my life and I didn't log in for some time and I didn't recieve e-mail notifications about messages either. So I'm really sorry for answering late!!

Hi!

There isn't much to tell about myself as my life is very boring at the moment because I just finished university and am not quite sure what I want to do with my life and my new "freedom" ;) I studied Japanese Studies and English Literature and been to Japan a few times. As I have much time at my hand at the moment I started crotcheting and recently got addicted to Inchies. I love to try out new things and there are so many great sites to find inspiration I don't even know where to start and what project to do next.

Other than that I like reading, drawing, movies and gaming. I love obscure movies or those that are so bad that there are good. I own 12 game consoles (all older ones) and some handhelds. I especially love my NES and SNES because I grew up with them. I don't spend much time playing though and when I play it's mainly stuff on my DS.

I'm a Taurus and I'm born in the year of the Tiger (Fire-Tiger to be exact) and I'm very proud of it!

My interests are actually very varied, so it's very hard for me to pin down my favourites...I like cute and bright stuff and I like dark and filigrane stuff. That's why the favourites look so very random. There is so much stuff I like, so basically you can't do anything wrong :p They are just for inspiration. If you have an idea feel free to do it. Just have fun :)

I live in an non-smoking apartment and have no pets. So allergic people fear not!

As you can see I'm new on this site, so I'm quite scared to do anything wrong or don't fulfill the swappers expectations. I try my best though! If there is a problem please let us talk about it!
