Hello, my name is Opal and I live in Oregon! I am a new college student, working on a psychology degree. I'm an animal lover and vegetarian. I love summer days and reading books.I work part time at McDonald's. It's not ideal, but work is work.
I make crafts and sometimes sell them. I love creating mail art, seed bead crafts, friendship bracelets, perler bead art, sewing felt plushies, and any other craft that I can get my hands on!
I read young adult books of all sorts, and I also love many classics. Some of my favorite series include Harry Potter, The Mortal Instruments, and The Infernal Devices. Some other books that I love are anything by John Green, the Great Gatsby, Wuthering Heights, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Catcher In The Rye, and many others. I'm always looking for book recommendations!
I'm really easily pleased and thankful for anything that I receive, but here are some things I really like: Stationary, stickers, cute planners, sticky notes, candles, unused stamps of any value, any handmade crafts, capybaras, typewriters, embroidery threads of all colors, seed beads, all colors/types of yarn, crochet hooks, stitch markers, crochet thread, pony beads, perler beads, ink pads for stamping, pens and pencils, lip balms, lotions, tea (all kinds, my favorites are masala chai, chamomile, and lemon), coffee, k-cups of any kind, anything with guinea pigs, bunnies, dogs, or rats, pop punk music, anything with dream catchers, washi tape, socks, pokemon, anything disney, pretty much any cartoon, poetry, anything Victorian style, puzzles, slouchy beanie type hats, any jewelry, Polaroids of nature, scrapbooking embellishments and papers, printed or blank address labels.. The list goes on! But really, I'm easy to please!
These are things that I would try to re-gift if I receive them: Touristy US postcards (from other countries are great!), non-vegetarian foods (including gummy candies containing gelatin! Yuck!), Cancelled postage stamps for collectors, anything very religious. I won't necessarily give you a bad rating for receiving these things, but they'd probably be more appreciated by someone else!!
Gifts for my boyfriend are even more appreciated than gifts for myself because I love to see him smile! He's a huge nerd. He loves yugioh, avatar the last airbender, hedgehogs, corgis, and hot chocolate. His name is Jimmy if you want to write him a note or anything (:
