Do you decorate for Halloween? What sort of decorations? Dress up for Halloween?
My family decorates for Halloween, very varied things. My mother prefers the country look, I prefer darker, less cutesy and more refined things. I do dress up, this year I'm going as Tuberculosis.
Bats, cats, skeletons, monsters, vampires, witches or what other ghoulies do you prefer?
I'll admit it, I have a vampire fetish. I have a long-time love affair with bats and monsters, though...and the more monstrous the better. I love bizarre monsters.
Do you like horror flicks?
Of course. I'm a huge fan of the classics, and older horror films. I've been a bit disappointed by the modern movies, but there are always exceptions.
Who here prefers stylus and ink to ballpoint? Anyone invested time and effort into calligraphy or proper Victorian writing?
I'm left handed, so writing with real ink is always messy. I love the look, but I need to literally go one word at a time in order to keep it legible.
What about stationery? Need some? What styles do you like?
I'm always in need of stationary. Cards, notepaper, handmade paper, I love it all.
What is one item that you've wanted forever, could have afforded, but have never gotten and why (haven't you gotten it!)?
Half of everything on Etsy. I end up favouriting things thinking, "Oh, I'll come back to it when I get paid," and then see the money come and go and never end up getting to it.
What Halloween scent are you most looking forward to?
Sugar Skull and Sticky Pillowcase. I ordered a bottle of each in my last, but I may end up needing to stock up before they leave for the winter. I can't get enough of sugary, candy scents.
Tattoos! Do you have em? Do you want em? Whatcha got or getting?
None as of yet, but I can't afford any right now. Also, I think if I get any during my grandmother's lifetime, she'll probably throw me out of her will. But. I want these wings on my back.
Reduce - REUSE - recycle. Do others feel the same?
I'm all for reusing. But honestly, my family has a hard time with the recycling. Because our township requires us to privately contract recycling companies and it's a pain in the ass.
What is your favorite crafting supply?
I love paints and pigments. Regardless of what I'm doing, I usually end up using acrylics or pigments.
Weigh in...Are you right or left-handed?
Left handed. Very, very left-handed.
Any period of time that you love?
I'm big into Victoriana and the roaring 20s. I'm hard-pressed to find a period that I don't love, but those are my top two.
What's your favorite part about Fall?
I can get away with wearing spicy scents and cooking spicy foods and no one can complain. X3
Do you like office/school supplies? If so, what is your favorites?
Of course. I'm all for pens and note pads and all other variety of things. Me in an office supply store is like a kid in a candy store.
What's your favorite Halloween candy?
I love Twix. We got triple chocolate Twix at work and now I hate my boss for buying it. Because I actually find myself eying the candy jar every once in a while.
Will you be participating NaNoWriMo? If so, is there anything you'd like to have for that?
I torture myself with it every year. I usually end up writing horror, so I love to look up creepy, ambient music (like Cinema Strange and the sort) to inspire me.
Where does everyone like shop for witching goodness?
It depends on what I'm looking for. I tend to brainstorm and then hunt things down.
What is your favorite pumpkin goodness?
Pumpkin bread. The kind you bake in a can and then fight out afterwards. I've been craving it lately, but can't seem to find the recipe any longer. I wanted to look it over and see what low-fat alternatives I can substitute, but at this point, I'll settle for the full-fat version.
Who are your forum buddies? People you know well enough online or IRL to help your Witch pick out stuff for you? I don't really talk to tons of people, but I do write to some people in the mail thread--tarotbydiana, AleciaR, Antimony, Scotchgrrl...I can always answer questions, though, if anyone has questions.
My questionnaire is chock-a-block with ideas for Witching me on the cheap, and without sending "stuff for stuff's sake". And I just came up with another one--make me a Pandora, Finetune, or Last.fm station you think I might like! What manner of affordable Witchery might you covet? I love homemade things. Artwork. Stories. Any talent you might possess--whether it's cooking, crafting, painting, sketching, writing, composing, you name it, I'll love it.
Does your cell phone have a place to attach charms? It does!
If you drink coffee (and make it yourself) do you use a French Press, regular filter basket coffee maker, Espresso Machine, Percolator? I have a typical filter basket.
What movie soundtracks (or scores) do you love? I think I have Labyrinth and the Nightmare Before Christmas in my car, but I have a few others elsewhere. Rocky Horror, Interview with the Vampire (did I mention I love the harpsichord?), and I'm desperately seeking the soundtrack from Cabaret.
How do you scent yourself? Do you layer soaps, moisturizers, etc. or do you go straight to slathering your bod with BPAL? Depends on the day. I usually bathe in the evening, but my hair is always scented with sprays and leave-ins, so I pick a coordinating moisturizer and then usually slather myself in BPAL before I leave the house (since my skin sucks down the moisturizer almost instantaneously).
Do you/how do you scent your world? Candles, incense, diffusers, potpourri? None of the above? Candles, incense, oils, etc. I need to get my hands on a tart burner, but I can never find one that fits me, or when I do, someone else bought it all ready.
BPAL is such a scent-ual experience. What are your other tactile, aural, or olfactory pleasures? All of them? I'm a completely aesthetic person, so chances are if something looks nice, feels nice, smells nice, sounds nice, I'm all over it. I'm a sucker for shiny things, soft things, sweet-smelling things...if in doubt, ask.
How do people feel about receiving baked goods/kits to make said goods? Or other cooking items? Would you enjoy oil or vinegar flavored with herbs grown at home? Strange and exotic spices with recipes to try? Yes, yes, yes, and yes. I love interesting foods, spices, flavours, and new things to try.
Cookies made with carnation petals? Why not?
What are your pet's names, and what are they named for? Okay, let's see. Dogs: Rambo, named for my teacher's dog when I was in kindergarten. I thought all little dogs were named Rambo (he's a poodle). Honey, Muffy, Maisy, Tink, all named by my mother, or came with their names. Paco was going to be "El Nino" but no one else liked it very much...he wasn't supposed to be my dog, so I didn't have final say. Cats: Tabithia was named after Tabitha Twitchet from Beatrix Potter's "Tom Kitten," and she's registered with papers, so we screwed with the spelling to make it more unique. Bonnie and Madison were named by my mother. Birds: Cyrano was named for the character, as he talks beautifully and has a big ol' honker, though I wanted to name him Igor because he looked like a vulture when we got him. Winston came with his name, and since he constantly reminds us that his name is in fact Winston, it can't change. Pee-Wee and Victor were both named by other people when we thought they were boys, turns out they're both girls. Only Victor has changed her name, since she's a parakeet and can't tell the difference. And Jesus is the canary, named unofficially when we kept yelling at him, "Jesus! Shut up!" as his song often interferes with the television.
We do harbor other animals, but none of them are really "ours" or I can't remember their names.
Who here is a complete, over the top, Alice In Wonderland fanatic? I do love Alice in Wonderland. I read a little too far into it, but I do love it.
Are you a Trekkie? If so, which series do you prefer? Do you have a favorite character? Not me. I'm not really a sci-fi fan. :/
Do you have phobias? Spiders. Feet. Mainly those two. I always have terrible delusions that spiders are crawling on me, and I'll run out of the room screaming if someone takes off their socks. I don't know how either started, but it gets a little ridiculous sometimes.
How do you like your mix CDs? Random? Stuff you know you'll like? I organize my mixed CDs by artist so I can flip them in my car if I don't feel like listening to one specific part or another, or if they're for my computer I'll arrange them by best flow--like, nothing too loud after a quiet song so it doesn't scare the crap out of me, etc.
Would you rather get food or jewellery? I appreciate a tasty low-fat food, but I'm a sucker for jewelry.
Do you like children's toys, such as jacks, those little things you tilt around to get the ball in the right hold (wtf are those called?), the aforementioned caplet dinosaurs, cap guns, etc?: I'm a sucker for monsters. My boyfriend once came home with a pocket full of quarter-machine eggs containing little monsters which was utterly adorable. Not that I know what to do with them now, but it was awfully cute for the time.
English candy/tea/marmite or other stuff that you love and can't easily get outside of England? I've never been to England, so I really wouldn't know. I work in a tea store, though, and I'm not entirely fond of English teas, so that's not really something I'm into, but I'm not well versed in candy or other treats.
Fanfic as a gift* - yay or nay? Your fandom? Slash preferences?*well, a virtual gift obviously. You know what I mean. By all means, if you think I'll enjoy something, send it my way.
Any beaders here? Need beading supplies? I've dabbled, but it's not really my bag.
Do you like making up your SW packages around a theme, or prefer to mix it all up? I think themes are fun, but sometimes I get carried away and dump in everything at once.
Band-aids: do you like the fun and funky ones? Who doesn't?
What's the scariest thing that's ever happened to you? I had something follow me home from a cemetery. It sounds far-fetched, but I'd swear my firstborn on it. A friend and I were being stupid goth children and hanging out in the local cemetery when I suddenly smelled something weird. I couldn't place it, but the best comparison I can give is like an open, uncooked steak that's sat in the back of the fridge for too long. My friend noticed something was wrong and asked why I suddenly started shivering and when I couldn't give him a straight answer he put me in the car and started to drive me home. When I composed myself, I told him about the smell and he called his mom who was a nurse and a shaman to ask if she had ever had a similar experience, but when I got on the line to describe the smell, to service started to cut out. She was trying to explain something to me when the line cut completely. I had the same phone service and my phone was charged and had four bars--and so did his. The call was just lost. She eventually got back through and told me that she had the impression that something didn't want her to talk to me, and no sooner did she say this when the smell came back. When we got home, I made my mother run sea salt and sage to the car so I could clean myself down before going into the house, but I don't know whether it helped. I just know that something was pissed at me that night, probably because I was sitting on some mausoleums I oughtn't have been.
We also had a poltergeist in my house, but that's a tale for another time.
What is everyone's favorite Halloween song?! The entire Rocky Horror Picture Show. It's a year-round love, but everyone else seems to join in around Halloween.
How many of mah fellow witchies play video games? Platform? Do you like used games? I have a PS2, but I haven't purchased any games in years since I've vowed not to until I actually finish the ones I've started. I also have a DS, which I admittedly use more frequently. I do love horror games (I'm in the middle of Fatal Frame II and III and Clocktower III), and I'm looking forward to the DS release of Spore, but any suggestions are welcome!
What kind of music (genres, please) do you like? Goth, darkwave, glam, neo-Classical--if in doubt, ask.
Have any of you ever received a book from a Witchy and loved it so much you ended up buying a copy for a later Witchee? My last Witch sent me a copy of Michel Foucalt's "Birth of the Clinic," which is utterly fabulous, but I'm not sure if any of my subsequent witchees will share my penchant for medical history.
What kinds of eye shadows do we all like? All of them. Usually the darker the better. I love jewel tones, smoky colours (greys, pewters, blacks, chocolates), metallics, etc. My favourite brands are MAC, Urban Decay, Nars, Stila, and Makeup Forever. But I'm totally willing to try new ones.
Do you like lip balm? If so, do you like tinted, glossy, sparkly, pearly or just plain lip balm? I really only wear balm at night, or under my lipstick, so it really doesn't matter. I love lip glosses, since I can layer them, in which case I love dark, shiny gloss. I do have a penchant for minty, cooling balms because I do get very sore, very dry lips sometimes and they're the only things that seem to help. Anything else is like putting butter on a burn.
What are some of the SW gifts/finds from past rounds (or you can just name a gift in general that you found for someone if this is your first round!) that you are the most proud of in terms of your sleuthing skills? I'm not sure. I've only had one previous round.
And, secondly, what is something you've been searching for but just can't find? Lately, I've been searching for band patches. Like Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, the Cure, etc. I know I've seen them in those ridiculous t-shirt shops that double as head shops in NYC, but outside of there, I have no idea where to even look.
Do you knit/crochet? Do you need any supplies? I always end up getting two lines in and then unraveling it by mistake.
Who here has an etsy shop? Eventually, I'd like to set one up.
What are your two favorite etsy shops? I've purchased quite a bit from Littleflowers, but there are so many shops I want to buy from. I can't think of one other one specifically.
Are you active on any other boards/forums? If so please specify where and your username there. Cocoapink forums I'm antimonyinblue, Tower of Time I'm DeathLotus (and a mod)...I think that's it.
What would you tell yourself 6 months in the past about 2008 so far? It gets better, and it gets worse. Everything in moderation and everything evens out.
If you had one minute of fame, what would you do/say in the spotlight? Only one minute? It takes me longer to think out sentences. I'd probably smile awkwardly and relinquish it to someone else.
Robots versus zombies: who wins? Logistically, robots. They could tear zombies' dead flesh apart and shred them like chopmeat. But I'd be rooting for the zombies.
What would zombie say? Uhhhh. I'm old-school--I don't think zombies have the capacity for speech.
Where are a few of your favorite places? The East Village in Manhattan, the Jersey Shore (yes, I'm a dork), cheesy local carnivals
Out of curiosity, all the fall babies who are celebrating their birthdays during the round - who are you, and when is your bday? Not me. I'm winter.
What is one (only one) object that you collect, that totally goes against your personality or beliefs? Not necessarily a collection, but I do own several leather pieces. As a vegetarian and animal lover, it's really uncharacteristic, and my family can't believe I'll wear a leather coat, but I do.
Are you a soap addict? Anything you like to avoid in soaps (goat's milk, lye, dyes, etc...) or any particular scents you like or brands you want to try? I am a soap addict. Anything too scrubby can be irritating, but otherwise, I can't think of anything else to avoid. I love Villainess, Cocoapink, LUSH, but I'm willing to try any and everything. My taste in scents is like my taste in BPAL--foody, sweet, etc.
Do you like kilts and would you wear one? If I was a boy, sure.
BoiWitches? Question for you both.....Hath any of thou own a Kilt? I don't own pants. And that's perfectly acceptable for my gender, so this is probably n/a.
What's your favorite book? I just re-read Poppy Z Brite's Lost Souls which I adore, but I can't really pin down a favourite.
What size socks do you wear? How about hat size? I don't know. If I wear socks, they're usually knee-high or thigh-high to line my boots, but I wear mainly stockings and tights. As for hats, I don't know. I like them fairly large, so I usually buy anything sub-labeled "large" but it's hit or miss. (I can't find my tape measure.)
Do you read comics? Which ones do you love and which can't you stand? I like horror comics of most varieties. Whether they're American, European, Asian, old, new, independent, published, you name it, I'll read it. My favourites have been Japanese, but I've read some really awesome American ones, too.
Symbols that are meaningful to me? The seven-pointed star.
By nature are you a morning lark or a night owl? Neither. I'm half-dead when I wake up and crash by midnight. I'm more of a noon-time critter.
What's your favorite type of music to hear live, rather than recorded? Just about everything. Even things I normally wouldn't like (death metal/black metal/doom) I actually enjoy live. I love seeing live shows, and not only because its an excuse to dress up.
What is your favorite autumnal-seasonal drink? Mulled cider.
Crossword puzzles? Other pencil puzzles? None, really. I used to love logic puzzles and word games, but they really don't require pencils. I like mad libbs. We do them at work sometimes.
Favorite artist? Mitsukaz Mihara, Senno Naiff, Salvador Dali, Aubrey Beardsley
Favorite poet? Oscar Wilde, Baudelaire, Poe, Byron, Shelley
Halloween. Do you like it kooky or creepy? Either/or, but I often use it as an excuse to be as disturbing and eerie as possible.
Reserved or Raunchy? A decent mix of both. I won't speak up unless I know it won't offend everyone in the entire room, but I can be off-colour with the best of them.
Earth, Wind, Fire or Water? Water.
Tea or Coffee in the morning? Coffee, but I'm trying to swtich to maté. It's just more convenient to drink the coffee that's all ready been made than to boil water and wait for maté to steep.
Fruity snacks or chocolate? I eat tons of fruit and fruity things. But I get the occasional chocolate craving.
Would you accept art? Of course! Art is one of my favourites. :3
Antiques or Brand New? I like both, but I love things with a history. Even if I don't know it.
What keywords do you use when searching for items for yourself on Etsy? "octopus," "squid," "flapper," "Victorian," depends on what I'm looking for, really.
Are there any of y'all who are allergic/sensitive to having natural fibers on your skin? I can get itchy with things like wool, but not desperately, and no more itchy than wearing rayon or synthetics.
What was your favorite ghost/scary/campfire story growing up? My imagination was WAY too active, so I made most of mine up. But actual favourite scary stories included the Phantom of the Opera, Faust, and Dracula. Not necessarily traditional childhood favourites, but I loved 'em.
Bugs? Do you like 'em or not? Actual bugs, sure. Not arachnids. I hate spiders, and most of their relatives. I've got a scorpion fascination, but real insects are a-o-k.
i haz no imp storage. do you? I store my imps in a tea chest I purchased with the intention of decorating, but I haven't quite gotten around to it yet. I tend to travel with them in my wallet, but I'm in need of a new one since I spilled half an imp in it and now it's too smelly to bring to work.
What is your favorite art movement and/or style? ie impressionist, surrealist, art nouveau, etc. I'm a nut for art nouveau. Alphonse Mucha is my all-time favourite artist, and I love the flowing lines and complexity characteristic of so many artists of the time. I also enjoy surrealism, but I need to be in a certain mood for it.
Do you have a case for your mp3 player/digital camera? If you would want one, what size is your digital device? My iPod came with a simple black slip cover, but I've been looking for something with more personality. It's a generation 3, 30 gig model I think. My camera usually just gets shoved in my purse, but it's probably not good for the screen and messes with the settings. It's a Canon Powershot A620. Fairly large for a newer camera. :/ Which may not be case-conducive.
For tea drinkers, do you bag it or prefer loose? We only sell loose-leaf teas at work, so I'm slowly making the switch, but there are some bagged brands I do enjoy. Like the Republic of Tea.
Does the weather change where you are, as in, does it get cold in the winter? Anyone need homegrown scarves, hats, mittens, etc? It gets downright frigid in the winter, here. I've been eying some long, fingerless gloves, since the cold bothers me less on my actual fingers as it does traveling up my coatsleeves. Something like this or this (lovin' the Carnivale and Fire Rose colours!), and some dramatic, long scarf like this. My coat is black, so I love colourful accents. And I love, love, love homemade things.
How do you feel about Hello Kitty? Apathetic. I don't hate her, I don't love her. I think she's cute, in many of her incarnations, and I have some stationary with her on it, but that's about it.
Legwarmers? Armwarmers? Can be useful, but I rarely wear them as a fashion statement. I like armwarmers under coats or long-sleeved shirts, and legwarmers under boots in extra-cold weather.
What makes everyone stand out from the Switch Witch herd? Yeek. I don't know. Not very much. I'm a pretty average human being.
If you are into the original Nintendo system, what 3 games would you want that you don't have? I don't have it. :/
What is your favorite category of the GC? Most of my favourite GCs seem to come from the Bewitching Brews category, but I also like Diabolous, Sin&Salvation, and Ars Amatoria a good deal.
Stance on Joss Whedon and his enterprises? From everyone else's answers, I gather he's the Buffy/Angel guy. And as much as I love vampires, I wasn't a huge fan of his. Admittedly, though, I know little about him.
Has anyone tried ice wine before? Do/did they enjoy it? No, but it sounds intriguing. I do love a good wine.
What other perfume companies (besides bpal) have you been curious about? Cobalt, Arcana, Possets...I haven't tried any of them.
Does anyone here do anything with grave rubbings? I've always wanted to.
Would you enjoy art based on original Graveyard photography? Absolutely.
What's in your Netflix or Blockbuster queue, do you want any new Netflix/Blockbuster friends, if so how do we find you on there? I don't have either.
Do you play a musical instrument? Name it, I've played it: piano, violin, harp, guitar, bass, etc.etc.etc. I really want to pick up the cello, but I can't find anyone to teach it to me.
What do you think of Irrelevant Disturbing and Surreal Crawdad Dream? Love it? Hate it? Kicking yourself for not getting a bottle? I got it. I liked it. The first time I tried it, the tea went a little dusty on me, but it's lovely and I adore it in a locket. I almost bought a backup, but I figured I'd be better reserving backup monies for the Weenies.
How do you feel about trinkets? You know - tiny toys or doodads that serve no purpose than to be cute, take up space and make us smile. Love them or waste of money? I do like them, but I've got so many of them and so little storage that it makes me sad.
Can melty things be shipped to you, or will they be in puddles by the time you open the package? Melty things are a-o-k. Might want to check the weather ahead of time, but it seems hot weather is gone for good, so it shouldn't be a problem.
Who likes pirates? I like pirates. I don't obsess over them, but I do like them.
What are your feelings about Dia De Los Muertos? Love it! I love the concept, I love the art, I love the sugar skulls, I love the theme...I'd love to do more with it--if/when I move out, I think I'll probably end up using it as a theme for my apartment. Including ancestral ofrendas and the like. Because some of my relatives are awesome.
What do you think about the Nightmare Before Christmas? It was my favourite childhood movie. I still love it.
If candy is sent, would you prefer small amounts to a Halloween sized bag? Probably? I'll yell at myself if I eat too many candy and end up pawning it off to coworkers. I enjoy a good candy (and if it's fruity or gummy, size is no issue) but chocolates and creamy, fatty things usually end up tasted and horded for special occasions, so little bits go long ways.
Do you like notes in your soaps or bath stuff that you don't like in your perfumes? If so which? I do, actually. Things like patchouli, which turns terribly sour on me, I like in moderate doses in my soaps.
Do you like floral soaps or bath stuff? If so, what florals work and what don't? Lilies work, lavender works, jasmine works, but not much else works...
How do y'all feel about honey and maple? And different flavored honey, not just the standard kind? LOVE both.
What is your favorite thing to do on a cool fall day? Go for a walk, make a fire and sit in front of it an read horror stories, bake.
If you have pets, is there a SPECIFIC toy they like to play with; brand and size? Is there a treat/cookie they eat? What brand and size? My dog loves oversized pillow-animals. He's had a reindeer since Christmas, but it's starting to get a little saggy. He's got a very sensitive system, though, so treats are always debatable. But he loves rawhides.
What's your ringtone? the Fratellis' "Henrietta," but I have others. My family plays David Bowie's "Changes," my boyfriend plays AFI's "Silver and Cold," and my best friend plays Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus"...
Just to throw a silly question out there...Munsters or Addams Family, y'all? Adam's Family.
What think you about receiving tea accessories and/or miscellany (like mugs, cups, saucers, strainers/filters, honey, natural sweeteners [like stevia])? By all means. I work in a tea store, so I can get a lot of tea miscellany myself, but I'm always in search of new and interesting things.
How do you feel about copies of music or dvd's that your witch might have that you might enjoy? Not just mixes, but whole copies? Sure, why not?
Say, witches, I have a question about birthdays. do you expect/rely on other people to plans birthday outings and activities? Not really. Every year I can think of, I've planned whatever I've wanted to do for my birthday. It might be nice, eventually, to have someone else plan it, but I probably know best what I want to do.
Tarts? Yes/no? I'm just getting into tarts.
I'm wondering if my witchee would like to try these types of things (like the caramel with sea salts or chocolates with chilis/bacon/salt etc.)? Anything without meats, I'm game for.
What's your favorite animal? Octopus, squid, bats, iguanas, armadillos...
What one (or two, if you really must) BPAL bottles are you most longing for? GC? Gluttony. Limited? Ichabod Crane. Or any of the Weenies I didn't all ready try.
If you could have dinner/drinks/coffee with any 3 living people that are not your family/friends already, who would they be-? Living? yeek. Probably John Waters, because nothing I could say over food or beverage could be found distasteful in comparison, Peter Murphy, because I find him charming, and Bill Schultz, because I've always had the bizarre notions that we simply MUST have appletinis together some day. --and if Peter Murphy isn't available, as I'm sure he's a busy man, I'd love to see Lucas Lanthier join us, because he's full of so many fascinating tales.
If you could bring back any TV show from cancellation what would it be? I don't know if it was canceled or just never announced a second season, but John Waters did a show on CourtTV about couples that killed each other. "'Til Death Do Us Part"...if it's been canceled, it's a shame.
I wonder if my witchee would like a blanket type thing. Would you? Sure. Blankets are great for watching TV at night.
What's your favorite "I know it's bad for me but I can't help myself" treat? Crumb cake. Apparently. I hadn't been near the stuff in years, and the minute it comes into my house I start circling it like a vulture.
Very important question: Are you planning on buying anything off your BPAL and/or other wishlists during the round? Possibly. I don't want to assume my Witch is going to be avidly following my wishlist, so if there's something limited that I want, I'll probably get it myself. But I always appreciate backups, and anything GC will probably remain untouched since I always forget while I'm making orders.
Do you wear a watch? If so, what kind/style? I bought myself a pocket watch, but I'm in need of a new chain.
How do you feel about having a donation made in your name to something?If you like that idea, what types of organizations/groups would you want the donation to go to? Sure! I'm all for charitable causes. I'm a sucker for animal charities...the last one I donated to was the Thai Turtle Preservation Fund. Their ad was just too sad-looking for me not to.
What will you like from Singapore? Candies? Food? Asian crafts/toys? Anything and everything. I have an unhealthy obsession with foreign goods.
What is everyone's "luck" item? I don't think I really have one. I can name you things that are ridiculously UNlucky for me, but not necessarily the other way around.
Do you like art deco/nouveau - style prints? Art nouveau is my favourite style ever.
What is one thing that, if you received it in the middle of all the hubbub, would make you smile and take your mind off of all you have to do for a bit? Almost anything that would let me know someone was thinking of me or wishing me well. Really, I'm fairly easy to please.
Do you like Mystery Science Theater 3000? Have you tried out (and if not, would you be interested in doing so) its weird little brother, RiffTrax? My exposure is limited. I'm more of a horror person than a sci-fi gal, though.
Do you often drink take away coffe in paper mugs? Well, seeing as that's all they give me, yes. I almost bought myself a spiffy travel tea mug from work today, but decided it's best saved for a different time. I've also been eying the most recent NaNoWriMo mug.
What would a perfume based on you smell like? Buttery spice cake frosted with vanilla buttercream and paired with a black tea with almonds, ginger, cinnamon, clove, cardamom, and honey.
Who here likes Wizard of Oz things? I've never been a fan, really.
Your thoughts on the update? The Blood Moon update wasn't really my thing, but I NEED those new Pancake oils from the Post
How do you decide what to put in which package for your Witchee or how many packages to send? I try to lump things together by theme.
If you were my witchee, would you be terribly offended if I sent you a box containing project "experiments" or random miscellaneous pretty bits of brainstorming that I thought you might like/wear? Never! I love experiments and brainstorming. <3
