About Me

Have currently moved house and have just got the internet back - yay!

Hey my name is Donna most people call me Dee for short. I'm 24 and have a wonderful fiancee - Ryan. We met when we were 13 and 4 years ago I plucked up the guts to tell him how I feel. We're now together and very happy. We live with my Mum and our 2 dogs Jack (Yorkshire Terrier) and grimmy (Boxer) and of course Smokey (our fat cat)

I'm currently a CND Nail Technician and live on a small Island in the UK so I'm surrounded by the beach. With family in the US I love to make international friends and hope to make many on here :0)

Im a massive gamer girl. I have a xbox, Wii, Pc and PS2. My favorite titles are Final Fantasy (all of them except 11) 10 and 8 are the ones I hold dearest to my heart, Kingdom hearts, Resident Evil Series (I have them all) House of the living dead, Dead rising, Silent Hill. Infact anything to do with zombies or horror lol

Im crazy on Japanese cat things, cat people in manga's, bell collars, ears the works, kawaii cat images. This is one thing that will send me screaming over the hills ^^

We have recently found out we are expecting our first baby this year and its a boy! So if any swappers out there can crochet I would appreciate a toy or two lol

badge

Little note to swappers: I make personalized swap cards, if you would like some I would be very happy to swap with you. Also if your from the USA and are willing to swap large bags of twizzlers for UK goodies. Feel free to msg me for a private swap anytime. I love these and cant really get them where I live :(

Favorite Music

I love it all really. My main choice would be more indie/punk/rock. But it ranged from Claire de lune to Rage against the machine.

Here's a few to give you an idea but honestly I'm open to anything new!

*Pink *Matchbox 20 *Kay Hanley *An Cafe *Rage Against the Machine *Skindred *Bowling for soup *Blink 182 (boxcar racer) *Newton Faulkner *Alanis Morisset

Favorite Books

I love anything fantasy (Final Fantasy game being a big thing in my life. I love the long meaningful stories) SiFi and Horror also a good book topic. Any Manga book too!

  • Twilight series
  • Lord of the rings
  • Anything Stephen King
  • Anything Terry Pratchet (trucker series my fav)

Im falling in love very fast with the discworld series.

Favorite Television

At the moment Im addicted to

  • Firefly ( join the browncoats movement to bring back the show)
  • Eureka (A town called eureka in the uk)
  • House
  • DrWho
  • Mythbusters

I adore manga. Especially Elfren Lied, Sailor Moon, HelloKitty, Esceflowne ect Im mostly found online watching things like OnePiece

P.S Im a mad mad Jem and the Holograms fan. I adore 80s cartoons.

Favorite Movies

Again anything manga, horror, comedy ect

  • Tank Girl - oh yeah!
  • The Labyrinth
  • The Dark Crystal
  • Beetle Juice
  • Teen Witch
  • Zombieland
  • The Craft
  • Edward scissorhands
  • Sweeney Todd
  • Ghostbusters
  • Zombie Land
  • Resident Evil (inc the new cgi')
  • Final Fantasy (All)
  • Waiting
  • Office Space - dam it feels good to be a gangsta ;

I also love anything Disney and wont get started on all the musicals I loved growing up as a child - I love Julie Andrews

Favorite Crafts

I'll try anything. Being a nail technician is very fiddly, so anything has to be easier to that! Anything sparkly grabs my eye, I'm a typical magpie

Sewing - is something that's taking my interest as of late i love all the different fabrics and varies of colour. I've just started to learn how to crochet big grin and am really enjoying it. although my amigurumi are coming out looking like little evil mushrooms instead of kawaii :(

Im also a keen paper crafter and have a heart string for altered matchboxes

My Wish List

Thing I'd Love to relieve:

  • Buttons! both kinda I collect badge buttons funny/funky ones and buttons for matchboxes ect
  • I really love kawaii items, but I have to travel to get my stash. I'd really like some die cuts, stationary, ribbon, even a funky quarter
  • Twizzler Twists Cherry and Strawberry
  • Decorative papers
  • Matchbox Fillers/Decorations
  • Anything Panda, Cat (inc tigers panthers), Mythical creatures
  • Love anything Japanese
  • Bento's and bento items
  • Pocky and hello panda snacks
  • Any snacks from other countrys
  • Anything to do with Cherrys
  • A hand made stamp
  • I like a good pen
  • Brads etc dont seem to have a collection here in the uk
  • Anything skull related (Im a punky girl)
  • Ribbons

A few Dislikes

Things I'm not so keen on:

  • Rainbow flavour twizzlers - i only like a few flavours
  • Mint
  • Stamp collecting
  • Floral items (I'm talking really flowery not pretty flower)
  • Gold things I'm a silver person
  • Im not really religious but open minded, so I would prefer not to get items to do with this. Although if you wish to tell me more about what you believe in, its welcomed in a letter just not as religious items.
  • Spiders - I am fine with alot of stuff and i LOVE Halloween. But please no real life pictures as this sets me off on a tangent.

hehe there's not much

Misc favorite things

  • Colours - Fuchsia and deep pinks, Purples, Black, Silver

  • Patterns - I love stars and wear alot of them, polka dots, hearts, swirls

  • I love breakfast cereal and eat it all the time

  • I'm a bit of a retro geek

  • I really love cute plushys to put/hang in my car

  • I love Cherrys and the flavor! and I'm white chocolate mad :D

  • I fall head over heels for cute little items

Comment: While it did take you almost a year to send off your package, I have to admit that I thoroughly enjoyed everything you sent to me. I'll first say that the stamps on the package immediately caught my attention. Being that I'm so OCD, the fact that all the colours were together in perfect rows of two made me squeal in delight. I love it when that sort of thing happens. Organization, to me, is one of the best things in the world. Upon opening the package - I noticed that everything was wrapped in the most adorable wrapping paper. It was like an early Christmas! How could I ever thank you for taking the time to do such a thing? With how many sweets you sent to me, there's no way that I'll be low for awhile. I've heard of Aero before, but I've never tried it. I also didn't know that it was available in such a large size... mercy! I'm going to have to split it up with not only Nathan, but also my brother. That's okay, though - I don't mind sharing it, haha. I've seen the Lindt bunnies before, but never the miniature ones! Oh, they're so darn cute that I don't even want to partake of them. I've received the Options powdered beverage from a different United Kingdom swapper and loved how they tasted. I didn't receive the mint one from her, though. So, you have absolutely no idea how much I love it. I could never get tired of mint (especially peppermint). Ever. Nathan is thoroughly enjoying his hot chocolate (as I am of the coffee). Sure, we have Nescafe here, but I don't recall ever seeing them in the single serving sticks. Love Hearts and Kinder Eggs? Oh, you shouldn't have! Honestly, I could never get tired of these two goodies from your country. They're something so simple, but taste so good. Not to mention, Love Hearts give me little messages and Kinder Eggs give me little surprises. What's not to love?! The chocolate coins are downright awesome. I know that Cadbury makes quite the bit of goodies, but I had no idea that they made chocolate coins! Before I even partake of them, I just have to take photographs... and I'll be doing just that very soon, haha. The dinosaur molds and especially the cat eye glass holder is so darn precious that I was squealing in delight more times than I can count. I'll be purchasing candy melts to where I can make some chocolate dinosaurs soon. While I did already own an eye glass case, I just had to replace it with the one you sent to me. The one I owned failed in comparison to yours. Big time. All in all, in case you can't tell, I loved everything. The wait was definitely worth the while. You're such a sweetheart, Donna... and I appreciate your taking the time to keep in touch with me every step of the way.
Response: Patricia I cantr apologise enough for the fact it did take me nearly a year to get together :( Ive had alot of bad things happen to me but I wanted to give you something that was special for waiting so long. So I made sure I spent alot of time getting things you would love. I couldnt let you down after the awsome package you sent me! Im so please you loved every part of it. I never wanted to let you down or swapbot. Thank you again for re-rating me :D even more so because I was only expecting a 3, the package wasnt about the rating. It was about making it up to you for it being so dam long! Your lovely Patricia and you deserve it. Cannot wait to see your pictures xD I only took one before I sent it all off x
