Do I have a habit of swapping? Not really. But I send all my swaps in time. The stamps, the pens, it just comes back to me :)

My profile features songs that represent different stages in my life. if you find any interesting, lovely you have a go. if you don't, have a nice day!

"No postcards please"

~~ unless it's a postcard swap please do not send postcards, I have too many (unless, of course, it is prints with full page illustrations, no photos or words, because hang those up like art)

"How to make my day" :D

~~ for any swap, please scam me with stickers! I love stickers. especially personal ones related to penpaling, self-love, compassion, etc.

~~ for teabag swaps, I like peppermint, caramel and desserty flavors :)

~~ for any swap, handwritten/ well-printed poetry or quote sharings are always welcome

~~ for penpal or notecard swaps, letters that can include

~philosophical depth (e.g. what is faith?)

~emotional depth (e.g. share a challenge you've faced)

~graphic design (eg. for multi-day diary-like swaps, records that incorporate different colors/fonts/ nicely formatted like a leaflet

It's not easy to swap dopamine from a screen for an hour to curate a profile preference package for someone who might never write back. Swaps become chores when you forgot you signed up and the requirements are looking extra long and tedious.

And that's why it's worth fighting for :)

apart from the snail-mail posting, seawatching loner, im also a practical joker who lights up a party. but I've only discovered that I can be both recently. do you have a once-hidden side to you too? let's share! ;)

i love the intersection of power and fluidity. from a explosive trick into a smooth footwork routine, or a rapid move of the arm with the rest of the body completely still? makes me melt like butter.

if dance gives me zest, lyrics gives me hope. i vividly remember feeling better when a gentle tune seeps into the music classroom when I was feeling so sick i was about to faint. i like songs from musicals and musical movies like the sound of music, zootopia, frozen, coco, the greatest show, dear evan hanson, a very potter musical, kpop demon hunters, a beautiful life, the wild robot... I could sing for hours. it'd suck to be my neighbour!

Day X of wishing I can join the USA swaps...

I am catching up missed swap deadlines. It might take a while. For those swaps, I will send my swap partner an email on the day I send it. If I sent on time, I don't do an extra email :)
