I don't have cable so I mostly keep up with TV shows through Netflix or Hulu/Youtube. Even then I don't really want that much!

I love

• Grey's Anatomy
• House
• Skins
• Pushing Daisies
• The Office(American version)
• Stella
• Kids in the Hall

I love books. And don't read nearly enough of them sadly.

• The Great Gatsby
• any of Augusten Burrough's works
• Catcher in the Rye
• Vonnegut
• David Sedaris

I tend to like satirical works and books that make you think. I would love to get book suggestions from anyone willing to give them!

My favorite movies are constantly changing.

Genre-wise, I enjoy independent, drama, dark comedy, documentaries, and musicals.

Some movies that would fit on my all time favorites list:

• Stand By Me
• Empire Records
• SLC Punk
• The Breakfast Club
• The Fall
• Big Fish
• 30 Days of Night

I'm a 23 year old college student living in a big city that makes me miss my suburban up bringing(but not enough to move back). I study psychology and am fascinated by mental disorders. I hope to become a therapist one day, working with teenagers.

I currently work as a dog walker/cat sitter and enjoy it most of the time. It does get physically exhausting but it keeps me in shape! Before that, I worked with inner city juvenile sex offenders.

I am mom to 4 cats:Piper, Sinatra, Lola, and Sofia, who are my babies. They are all rescues and were found on the mean streets of Philly. PLEASE NOTE:My items may have a stray cat hair in/on/around. If you are allergic to cats or have a general aversion to pet hair, please let me know and I will do my best to keep the hairs here!

I love satire, abstraction, writing, words of all kinds, odd things.

I am a wanna-be blogger trying to get serious about keeping up with my neglected little corner of the web.

I am new to swapping but have been looking for a web site like this one for a long time. I'm so excited to have found it!

**I DO NOT smoke so everything will come from a smoke free household. **

Re: postcards: If you happen to send my a postcard, I would love for you to write your favorite/a favorite quote or song lyric on the back. :)

**Re: my blog. There is a chance that I will talk about or photograph what I am sending out. If you have an upcoming swap from me and want to be suprised, don't look at my blog for a couple of days after I hit sent **

If you have not recieved something from me, please PM before rating. Swaps will ALWAYS go out before the deadline and tags/wishlists/WTAs will be sent within two weeks. Thank you!!

I adore indie folk/folk rock. I'm currently obsessed with Mumford and Sons, Iron and Wine, and Hey Marseilles. I like most rock music but don't care for most pop, rap, r&b, country, etc.

Some other favorite bands:Death Cab for Cutie, The Decemberists, Silversun Pickups, The Killers, Jimmy Eat World, Cursive, Bon Iver, The Postal Service, Modest Mouse, Nine Inch Nails, and Rise Against.
