SW Random Q's

How many potential witchees have an iPod, or download MP3s? I don't have an ipod, but I do have a really kickass mp3 player capable of storing pics and video and it also has radio. It's a sansa and I got it for a fraction of the price of an ipod. I've never had an ipod, but I've used my cousin's ipod before, and I actually prefer my little sansa to hers. Unfortunately, I managed to lose my mp3 player recently. I'll find it eventually, but until I do, all music is downloaded and put on a cd. I love new music, and I'd definitely love it if you burned a cd with your favorite music.   is there anything from the US you'd love that you can't get where you live now? Well, I'm from the US, but I've seen US people posting what they'd like from other countries in response to this question sooooo.....Any foreign candy is great. Especially European chocolate and also candy and snacks from the UK. I ADORE Cadbury's Crunchie bars and love pretty much anything Cadbury. Tea is good as well. Oh, and any kind of cool flavored chips ....or "crisps" as some of you call them. This could also be a good idea for anyone that's American but lives near a specialty store that sells imported goods I love candy and food from different places and love to try new things!   What kinds of crafts does everyone either enjoy making or enjoy getting?Do you have a certain type of handmade item that you love to collect? Socks, boxes, jewelry, dolls etc? I experiment with making jewelry and bath stuffs (bombs, melts and soap) and i would enjoy getting anything like that. I love handmade boxes. I'm not really into socks. I wear them when I have to. I'm not into dolls so much either.   Clearly, vegans are not into soaps with honey or milk, etc. But, if you're NOT a vegan, how would you feel about soaps made with emu oil? Squicked out/concerned about animal cruelty, or willing to try them? I'd be willing to try them. My grandmother uses emu oil, it's supposed to help with arthritis...but I don't know how much it's helped her.   Are there any of the BPTP bath oils you adore (particularly ones that you cannot get anymore). What about the room sprays? I've never tried any of the BPTP bath oils or room sprays, but they sound interesting. I love bath oils. I'm not big on room sprays, I prefer tarts, candles and incense.   How would you feel about an ultra-girlie shawl or wrap in summer-weight (lace)? Those really are gorgeous, but I wouldn't be able to use them much. I'm very very hot natured and if I weren't so self conscious (and if it were legal) I would run around naked during the summer. I can't stant to be hot and can't stand anything on my arms in the summer.   knitted socks? If you've made it this far, it's quite possible you already know about my dislike for wearing socks except to keep my feet from sweating in my sneakers. I kinda HAVE to wear them then, or else I'd have to take off my shoes a mile away from the rest of the household. But yes, knitted things and I don't usually get along unless it's in the dead of winter, just because I overheat so easily.

Switch Witch Info :)

Dear Witch,   I hope that this is helpful to you and I'm sorry that it's so freakin' long. I apparently do not know when to stop I'm really looking forward to being "witched" by you   Here is a link to my bpal wishlist   And here is a link to my non-bpal wishlist   ___________________________________   ~Other things I'm interested in~   I love animals. I don't really have a favorite animal, but I'm very partial to cats and have two of my own. I do not like snakes.   I must be a kid at heart, because I still have all of my stuffed animals and I still get new ones from friends and family.   Other "childish" things I like include : Sanrio Characters, Disney Merch and Winnie the Pooh, Harry Potter, Care Bears, Strawberry Shortcake, Teddy Ruxpin, TMNT, Every single Tim Burton animated film (I love pretty much every Burton film though) and I love animated films in general. I still watch cartoons sometimes...and I mean other than south park and everything on Adult Swim. I sometimes watch Cartoon Network during the day when it's directed at kids, lol. I still love stickers. I really like quirky pens and stuff like that. I still write with Gel Pens sometimes   I love incense and i could actually use a new incense burner for stick incense.   I love hockey. My favorite team is the Carolina Hurricanes. I collect Hockey Pucks. It doesn't have to be a Hurricanes puck.   I love to star gaze and am currently really interested in astronomy.   I'm a history geek.   I love anything to do with Alice's Adventures in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass.   On the subject of Alice, I have always wanted to play American McGee's Alice (the pc game) and never got around to it or couldn't afford it...and now I can't find it.   Anything Dickens and anything Poe I would love. I also love Mark Twain. I seem to favor classic male authors the most for some reason, although I do love Austen and Alcott.   I love music and am always wanting new music to listen to, so "mix tapes" are awesome.   I love love love to read and I gave a lot of specific info about that on my SW questionnaire, so I'll save you the boredom of reading it here, lol.   The fiance and I are currently being old fashioned romantics and writing each other actual letters on paper while we're apart, so stationary is great.   I'm obsessed with lip balm and lip butters. I constantly apply it. I can always use more.     My cats LOVE feline greenies. Their favorite flavor is ocean fish, but they love them all. And of course, catnip is a huge hit in this house, even I use it!   I can always use herbs for herbal remedies. I have a lot of health problems right now and have to take a lot of pills, so anything that i can help soothe without using pharmaceuticals is great. I mainly use herbal remedies to help treat my PCOS symptoms and to help with my insomnia. It's nice being able to feel like you can help control something yourself without the help of pharmaceuticals. My favorites are scullcap, damiana, valerian root, chamomile, red raspberry leaf, hops, wild yam, passion flower and dagga leaf   essential oils are also something I always like to keep on hand and I can NEVER have enough lavender essential oil.   I also love to keep cocoa and shea butter and other plant butters on hand. I have many uses for them. They're great in the bath when I use a bomb or bubble bar but want some added moisture. I sometimes make my own bath melts and also use it when making bath bombs. I use them plain as moisturizers or make my own massage bars/lotion bars even though I also use lotion and commecial body butters. I'm obsessive about having soft skin.   I've really been wanting to plant some flowers here, and I want to grow them myself, but I haven't gotten around to getting the seeds. I'm really interested in growing some night blooming flowers as well as some honeysuckle since our new yard doesn't have any. I'd also love to start an herb garden and I would love to grow my own lavender, so seeds are good   I love love love honey and put it in and on pretty much everything. I really love it in or on hot milk, hot chocolate, teas, oatmeal, some cold breakfast cereals, icecream, yogurt, biscuits, toast, english muffins, peanut butter sandwiches, fruits and I love to bake with it. I also use it in homemade facials that I do from time to time I also love honey of different varieties like lavender honey and cinnamon honey.   I can also always use earplugs. Seriously. These days I'm often a light sleeper and my family is VERY VERY loud. Everyone is on a different schedule as well, so to get any sleep around here I need ear plugs. They're also useful when I go to hockey games and concerts and also when I have to stay in the hospital. I can never ever have enough ear plugs.   I could always use decanting supplies since I'm getting into that now.   It's really hard for me to narrow down my favorite movies because I love SO many. I love these movies and anything to do with them though : Lord of the Rings, Labyrinth, The Wizard of Oz and pretty much all Tim Burton movies.   I'd love anything to do with Buffy, Supernatural, Doctor Who, Family Guy, South Park, Lost and Pushing Daisies.   I forgot to mention this in the questionnaire, but I collect unique rocks, shells and crystals.   I also forgot to mention my favorite drinks in the questionnaire...I think I focused too much on food. Food is on my mind a lot latey My favorite drinks are cider, pepsi, orange soda, strawberry banana nectar, raspberry juice, teas of all varieties except green and hot chocolate. Of the alcoholic variety I love wine and Bailey's and mixed drinks of all kinds. I also love hard cider but I absolutely despise beer. I'm obsessed with shakes and smoothies.   I love anything weird or unusual. Most people think that I don't make any sense, because my tastes are all over the place. I like girly and cutesy things yet at the same time I'm accused of liking things that other people say are "morbid". Heh.   On that note, I love cemetaries.   I love all things european, especially anything from the Uk, russia, czech repub, sweden, holland, latvia, greece and italy.   I also love all things Egyptian and all things Indian. My fiance loves a lot of Japanese stuff, and I think a lot of it is cool as well.   Fantasy Bath - Splash, Aloha, Bora Bora Bound, Mango Tango, Paradisio, She Sells Sea Shells, Sun moon and stars melts, Bayou Voodoo, Blackberry Brew, Cashmere, Days of Lime and Roses, Delish, Dryad, Enchantment, Heart's Desire, Into the green, It's my birthday, Jamaica Me Crazy, Lorelei,Peppermint Ice, Summer Soother, Wylde Child.   I love anything having to do with my favorite old tv shows...and I mean very old! I love Lucy, Dick Van Dyke and All in the Family.   Carved wooden boxes are awesome.Any cool boxes are awesome though.   I love chocolate, but I also love other candy. I am CRAZY over pop rocks. I love freeze dried ice cream and the other freeze dried novelty foods you can get, if that counts as candy. I love Chupa Chups and they're hard to find around here. You used to could find them everywhere when I was younger, but it's almost impossible now. I love banana laffy taffy and banana now and laters.   When it comes to incense I will burn stick incense of any kind, and sometimes cone incense. I do love me some Fred Soll's incense though. I also burn resin and can always use frankincense tears, dragon's blood and pretty much any other resin as well as things like sandalwood chips to burn. I can always use charcoal tablets.   I've recently gotten into graphic novels. I've only read Neil Gaiman so far, but I'd be interested in trying anything!   I love to dye my hair, even if it's just to put streaks in. Funky hair dye is always welcome. Manic Panic is a fave of mine. Any of the blues, purples, pinks or reds.   I love snowflakes.   I love pewter fairies and would love to start a collection. I love mythical creatures and have an interest in mythology of many cultures.   My favorite color is blood red. My favorite color combinations are red and black or purple and black.   I love to try new etailers and I LOVE LOVE LOVE samples. Samples are the best. There are so many etailers I still haven't tried yet. I'd like to try Nocturne Alchemy and possibly Conjure oils. I've also had my eye on MoonaLisa, Fantasy Bath and Cocoa Pink for awhile now.   ~Things I can't really use~   I know it's summer, but someone might want to send socks or scarves or that sort of thing to prepare me for cold weather...I kid you not when I say I am VERY hot natured. Even in the winter. I bundle up when I absolutely have to, to keep from getting sick...but other than that I always have bare arms and I only wear socks with my shoes.   Green Tea. I just don't like it. I love other tea, but I don't like green tea at all.   Licorice and licorice flavored or scented things.   Anything super strongly floral and most rose scented things.   Earrings. I don't have pierced ears.   Coffee. I don't drink it and I'm really not supposed to anyway. Every once in a long while I will have a cappucino or something.   I hope this was some help to you, witch!
