About Me

I'm 36, mom of 1 daughter. Her name is Sarah and she is 9. I'm not married.

I'm from Luxembourg, a small country in Europe and we are NOT a part of Germany. Many of my penfriends from USA thought this AND post offices keep writing Germany below the address. Please tell them NOT to do so, it will only delay the mailings.

I'm penpalling with people all over the world for a several time.

My profile will be completed during time, so each time I think of sth I put it in here.

.

Favorite Books

I especially love:

  • Harry Potter
  • Sookie Stackhouse
  • Twilight and more recently "the mortal instruments" by Cassandra Clare I read all kind of stuff, but always in the fiction/mystic/wizarding area. But I also read fanfiction.

I had enough of vampires now, so if anyone has a good idea about some other series I could read, please tell me. I'm curious about your ideas.

.

Favorite Crafts

First I have to say that I work fulltime, so there is not really time to do a lot of crafts. I try to do from time to time but I don't do it on a regular base.

I really love photography but I don't have too much time at the moment to do it as I would like to. At the moment it is still dark when I leave in the morning and it its dark again when I get home in the evening. Also I do Fb's and LB. I would really like to get a FB made for me (never had that) :-) And I tried scrapbooking , but didn't do it very often. One reason is that scrapbooking supply is expensive here. Then I don't have the right place to put all my things. If I leave them on the table my cats will be rummaging them. And destroy them eventually LOL Now I tried to make ATC's and I think I will make some more. They won't be too spectacular I dare say as I keep it simple.

New tryout is knittig

Dislikes

I hate lavender! I'm getting headaches from the smell of it.

.

Favorite Television

  • CSI Miami
  • Dr. House
  • True Blood
  • Ghostwhisperer
  • Two and a half men
  • The big bang theory

.

I only watch the shows when I have time and I don't have problem missing one LOL. What I watch regularly are casting shows like "Germany's next top model", "DSDS" and that stuff. It's mostly my daughter who is in command of the TV LOL, so I have to stand all those Disney Productions. I survived. But no matter what program is on TV, I always do sth else at the same time, like reading or Sudoko or playing sth else on my phone.

.

Favorite Music

  • Madonna
  • Rihanna
  • Nelly Furtado
  • Linkin Park
  • Paramore
  • Muse
  • Country music

    .

Of yourse this list isn't complete. I listen to all kind of music, but 80s are the furthest back LOL (no 70s or 60s or...). I do also love classic music. And I love the Harry Potter soundtracks.

Then there is my daughter who makes me listen to stuff like Hannah Montana or Justin Bieber.

Favorite Movies

  • Harry Potter
  • Twilight Saga

.

I don't go to the movies very often. I hardly seem to have time. Nex thing planned is Twilight 4

.

Postcards

I like touristy postcards. It's fun to see other places of the world. I also try to put them on my flickr-page (like once in a month or so) >

"Read my profile and write a comment" I really like the way your profile is made up of lists. It makes it easy reading and looks nice. I to like photography too (it is my job). We have a lot of the same likes. My daughter just loves Harry Potter so we have them all. Great stories. Have a great day. TerpCreek

Read my profile and write a comment Hi Corinne!
Nice to meet you. I liked the Sookie Stackhouse books too. :) Never got into the show though. What Sorta Fan Fiction do you read. I love going to Fan Fiction.net and just Reading. I also like your music :)

Bizabeth25 on Mar 15, 2011:

Thanks for commenting on my profile. Let me know if you want to trade Postcards... Happy Swapping

Salome on Mar 15, 2011:

Hi, I'm your "Read my profile and write a comment" swap partner. You're my nearest partner, so I know pretty well where Luxembourg is. My country is not a big one too ;) I'm happy to find someone who is Harry Potter fan as well, I even got so far, that I not only read, but also write fanfintion. But I'm curious: did you think, Severus Snape was or was not a Deatheater before the seventh book? I always thought him the funniest character in all the book, so I really enjoy all the mess about him :) Have a nice day, Salome

Ginger on Mar 15, 2011:

Hey! I'm Ginger and I live in South Carolina, USA. I'm commenting your page for the Read My Profile Swap. I share your love for The Twilight Saga. I would love to Europe someday. I'll bet it's beautiful. I haven't traveled much but have always thought it would be fun :) I am new to swap bot and am just learning, but I've seen a lot of ATC swaps and wondered what they were so I looked them up. It seems like a neat craft to make ;D

Read my profile and write a comment from Kiev Blonde

Hi I am your swap partner for the abovementioned swap. I like Twilight too but I prefer Stephanie Meyer's book The Host , it kept me chasing for the next chapter and the next :)

I would recommend J.R. Ward the Brothehood series and Jessica Andersen who writes about a group who is chasing against time to save the world from King of demons who plan to destroy Earth by 2012 - The Mayan Chronicle

Have a wonderful week ahead

:)

dolcxvita on Mar 2, 2011:

Hi there,

I am trying to collect Stamps/postcards (stamped, written naked) from different countries & I would really really love one from Luxemburg.

Please check out what I am offering in return Click Here .. it maybe of interest to you as you have listed some of the same items in your 'likes' section :) PM me if you are keen on a swap.. have a great day! :)

USAFwife on Feb 24, 2011:

I had to laugh at your comment that Luxembourg is not part of Germany! The last time I took a letter to the post office to mail to you, the postmaster kept asking me to put the country on the address, and wouldn't believe me that Luxembourg IS a country! I couldn't believe that! :)
