Ok bucket, heres some info about me.

I'm 25, am a dancer part time but am in the process of starting uop my own burlesque and alternative entertainment company with 2 other women. We do production, event management, costumes, corstery and eventually we'll have our own clothing line too. At the moment I'm working 12 hour days so I'm pretty shattered.

I love anything burlesque, anything pin up. I also really love Betty Boop. My favourite colour is red. I'm an American shoe size 7, clothe size 4-6 I think, (uk 8-10) and bra size 34C-D.

I like lush, but not too much please as I'm always picking up bits and bobs for myself anyway. I like American Candy, but again, not too much as I gotta work naked.

I have 2 cats, (Betty and Boo) they are my babies and I love, love, love them.

Hmm, can't think of that much more to say about myself, any questions are welcome.:)

Since I have not been on SW very long I'll do a post about me to help out whoever drew me.

I am a college student studying interior design. I have a shi-poo. My roomate and I share a house. she also has a dog and we reg. keep dogs since she manages a doggy day care. We also have a fish and a turtle together.

I am an artisty person. I make jewelry as a hobby, paint, and garden. I love baking and sewing as well though. I'm a kinda preppy, girly girl, but also because I grew up with two brothers often I am just one of the boys.

At some point I don't care how messy or dirty anything is as long as it smells good (i.e. I love candles and diffusers ect. I go through them like their candy)

I love anything no matter how pointless as long as it is pretty

I can't stand things that smell like vanilla or a bakery or in general fruity. I like flower scents esp. gardienia (sp?) or sweet pea

I love stuff that is asian, indian, french, ect. in design and anything in jewel tones

my favorite color is purple.

I am equally excited about my new Walrus.
Lysondra, watch out, I have your address now and can send you buckets of poo at will}:D

Infos for the person who iz in posseshun of my bukkit:

I live in New Zealand, which means a few things as far as gift ideas go
this is a winter exchange for me, not a summer one
foreign confectionery is exotic and exciting to me
home baking is unlikely to make it through customs
makeup costs about twice as much here as it does in the USA, so it's a big treat
I'm sure there are other things but I have been drinking and can't think good

I am 32, but am pretty juvenile
I have no children
I have two rats and a husband
I have a bathtub (favourite Lush products so far are avobath and demon in the dark)
I am a geek (play games, program, read sci-fi/fantasy)
I just got a new job in IT
I am a partner in a new business teaching pole dancing
I may not be stripping much, if at all, now that I have the "straight job" and the business
I very much enjoy many British comedies (Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, Red Dwarf, Blackadder)
I have a childish fascination with sparkly things
I am also fascinated by textiles
I almost completed a diploma in Fashion Design
I am obsessed with shoes and would give up sex for three months, possibly more, for a pair of Balenciaga shoes of my choice (no, this isn't a hint for TOO :P )
My favourite colour is probably red, but I actually wear a lot of drab colours
I like things that smell like food
My favourite band is Tool
I have an interest in historic fashions and am particularly interested in the period 1870 - 1930ish, and also I love corsets and sometimes make them

I love surprises and packages full of random fun little things and will be thrilled with whatever you choose to send me, unless it's a bucket of poo :D

So, when can we send these out??:)

Lola Rose
04-15-2008, 07:20 AM
whenever you want! the idea is for people to recieve them by the 1st of june :D

Bridgette
04-15-2008, 08:53 AM
So uh, if we send the stuff early do we have to wait til June 1 for reveals? Or can we reveal early?

AudreyLeigh
04-15-2008, 09:01 AM
Its so hard for me to make a wishlist. How can I not know what I like/want?! WTF is wrong with me? Maybe because I OWN everything I want? Ahhhhh

I forgot to say I love to scrapbook! Love love love scrapbook stickers, ribbons, paper, just stuff. I like candles too... ones that smell like a beachhouse. mmmmm

Lola Rose
04-15-2008, 09:15 AM
i'm of the opinion that reveals are the most fun if we do them as we recieve them! ThaT WAY YOU still have the excitement of the gift and all, rather then you having to wait a week or more.

i did the survey on the last exchange thread, but i suppose i'll write a little here too just in case whoever got me didnt read that thread.

not to mention i just woke up, am drinking coffee, and need something mundane to do with myself :P

the formal stuff:
i'm 28 (i'll be 29 in may). i live in tampa, florida. i have an awesome dog. 1/2 yorkie 1/2 chihuahua and thinks she's a german shepherd. i'm a fine arts/film student and a "studio artist". i mostly paint, but i do some drawing here and there. i strip (no shit, right?) and i intern at a couple local galleries. i also play guitar and write, but those things have been on the back burner for a bit, because i'm a busy bee. although i'm associated with certain subcultures (goth/punk/indie/whateveryouwanttocallit) i'm pretty non-pretentious, and i like non-pretentious people. not all of us freaks take everything so seriously. really.

what i like:
i like to laugh. i like dark humor and sometimes childish humor. i like hanging out with good friends. good beer. playing pool. laughing like children, living like lovers, rolling like thunder... under the covers. all that good shit. ;) for a skinny girl, i love to eat. i'm pretty big on "southern food" and i love to cook. i'm a big fan of alton brown (food network). i'm also a fan of the jason ellis show on faction (sirius radio). oh ... and i watch a lot of home improvement shows for when i ever have a house. lol my favorite colors are green (lime and olive shades), orange (orange-orange shade :P), and grays (standard gray, green-gray slate-gray) sorry, my art-self is showing with the specifics. i also like a lot of typically boyish things... dinosaurs, space, horror flicks, performing drunken stunts, etc. i like to read. i own almost every chuck palahniuk book. i love halloween and i collect vintage-type halloween stuff.

what i don't like:
not a lover of the color pink. actually, i'm not super fond of any pastel color. most really girly things, like 98% of all romantic comedies, talking about other people's relationships. not harshing.. it just doesn't interest me. not big on celeb gossip, etc. i also don't like judgmental people homophobia/racism/etc (but you weren't going to send me an angry homophobic jock were you?).

now for the list of examples on stuff i like. i know this is long, i'm putting off a term paper, deal with it!

movies:
fight club, donnie darko, harold and maude, labyrinth, eternal sunshine for the spotless mind, capote, 28 days later, most really great old horror flicks, friday, most burton movies, benny and joone (my ONE romantic comedy), velvet goldmine, sin city, pulp fiction, the descent, cloverfield (i like most big-things-stomping-around movies), american beauty, natural born killers. i'm sure i'm forgetting a billion... but that's a good start.

music: there's a bunch.. so i'll only list a few:
nin, nirvana, the cure, david bowie (who is my favorite famous person -ever-), the pixies, pj harvey (my favorite female singer -ever), nick cave, bjork, placebo, portishead, sunset rubdown, white stripes, modest mouse, black glaf, nervous turkey, most "delta blues", the doors, ledzep, rollins band, ministry, tool, the smiths, radiohead, tv on the radio, pigface, skinny puppy, jeff buckley, o'death, murder by death...etc etc etc

tv:
dexter, family guy, weeds, aqua teen, beavis and butthead (shut up), the office, my name is earl, good eats, top chef, squidbillies, cartoon planet, space ghost c2c, the simpsons, quantum leap (shut up), 1/2 the shows on the discovery channel, myth busters, queer as folk, six feet under, oz, etc. etc. etc.

now for the ole disclaimer. i put it on elfster, but just in case:
i am allergic to a bunch of seeds and nuts and all shellfish. i also have super sensitive skin, so most body-stuff and food-stuff is better picked out by me.

ONE LAST THING:
my wishlist is a guide. if you wanna get me one thing off it and pick something out yourself, awesome. if you wanna get me only stuff off my wishlist, awesome. if you wanna say "fuck you penny's wishlist!!!" and get me all surprises, awesome.

the only way you can fuck up is to send me a pink box with a gift certificate to red lobster and some rose scented sunflower seed sprinkled soap. }:D

My wishlist has some really expensive things and some really cheap things--they're all just there to give you an idea of my style!

Except for the Lush--those are all my faves!!!

Lola Rose
04-15-2008, 12:43 PM

As far as I can tell, the person who drew my name is awesome. I'm loving all these questions!

:dance:

xoxoGracexoxo
04-15-2008, 04:43 PM
Um, please switch me to someone else if Lys got me in the second draw....

I don't know Lysondra at all, but she's making me nervous about all this.

Dear Walrus, if you drew my name and happen to hate me for some reason would you please just ask Lola for a new name? I don't need any extra hate in my life. :)

Bridgette
04-15-2008, 05:03 PM
Here's my survey post from before



I'll say again that while I'd love to have any of the specific things on my wishlist, it's really meant to give ideas. I don't expect to receive any of that specifically.

Lola Rose
04-15-2008, 05:06 PM
I don't know Lysondra at all, but she's making me nervous about all this.

Dear Walrus, if you drew my name and happen to hate me for some reason would you please just ask Lola for a new name? I don't need any extra hate in my life. :)

lol, lys is kidding!!!

If anyone is so unhappy with their trade they need a new one, please pm me, I'll figure it out.

grace- I'm sure whoever got you likes you, you're a totally sweet girl :D

Rhiannon
04-15-2008, 05:07 PM
Yeah.. Lysondra is a biznitch.. She's lucky she's sexay or we'd have to hurt her.

Woo. Managed to get a present or two for one of my stinkies. Now for the other. POOPY HEADS.

Andygirl
04-16-2008, 10:30 PM
I've got my bucket's entire box ready to go. It is sitting here by me right now, full of lovely things on her list. I can't wait to send it!!!!! But I am going to force myself to wait a few weeks so she doesn't get it too super early. It's thrilling to think I may have gotten this person things that she will absolutely love. And it all has a personal touch. Can't. wait.!!

Lysondra
04-16-2008, 10:38 PM
PFT I found two PERFECT things for my Walrus online and they only ship to America and Canada and they're a JAPANESE company...wtf?

To ship this to STINKYBUTT and another package from home or not ship this and buy more from home.. or ONLY send those? (They're still worth $100 but there's no 'little' things to play with. It's two big things. So impersonal. AHHHHH!HH)

Damn girl, you are fast!! I got my bucket 2 things so far, but will go shopping more over the w/end...

Lysondra
04-17-2008, 01:55 AM
I'm waiting for a whole HEAP of stuff to be shipped to me for one bucket so I can make it myself.

The other person is still stinky and hard to shop for.

Lysondra
04-17-2008, 01:55 AM
You know I just realized this constant bitching might get me a bucket that sends me faecal matter? Lol. I'm just joking bucket... please still send real package. :P

I'm back to work, so I get to go shopping to.
I saw all this perfect stuff for my buckit and couldn't buy it since I was out of work. It'll still be there though!

Lola Rose
04-17-2008, 05:48 AM
Oh- I wanted to ask- does anyone have an opinion on doing the reveals?

I think whoever gets their gift forst should be able to post it! But if a few people are strongly against it, we won't do that.

so, please let me know, either here or by pm.

thanks!

Lysondra
04-17-2008, 05:49 AM
I think it should be first come first serve!!! That way those who try real hard to send early get to be first!

I'm not necessarily against it, here are a few concerns of mine though:
If people reveal early and got KICKASS gifts and show them off (not saying they shouldn't or don't deserve it) it may make other people feel bad that they couldn't get the same amounts worth for their buckit..either resulting in them feeling badly enough to either a)not send b)keep spending to keep up with a potentially high standard.
Also, people may start getting uber nervous that they've been flaked on if it's near the end and 80% have revealed and they haven't gotten theres. I don't want my buckit to think I'm not sending it, just that I've been out of work so I may have to send it closer to the dead line rather than next weekend. I want to do great for my person, but they may have to wait till the end. They'll be glad they waited though ;)
Just my two cents...I don't mind if the reveals are early as long as everyone is good sports about it!

Lysondra
04-17-2008, 05:59 AM

:(

shit.

ajbaer
04-17-2008, 06:03 AM
I said I'm NOT against it..just thought of a few reasons not to.
I want it to be fun for everyone (esp. Lys cause if she's my walrus I really don't want poo) :P so whatever is the general consensus is fine with me :)

Lysondra
04-17-2008, 06:18 AM
No not you... I fucked something up. I already told Lola.

She thinks it's funny.
