Name: Kendra
E-mail (optional): callmekendra@gmail.com
Age: 17 years old. But I act a lot more mature than my age. I very rarely write to pals my own age.
Birthdate: July, 27, 1991
Country: USA. California.
Main interests: Swapping, penpalling, traveling, writing, reading, crafts, making stationary and envelopes. Going to concerts. Road trips. Hanging out with my friends. Movie nights, and just random fun!

Favorite books: Meg Cabot, Steven King, Louise Rennison. Anything good pretty much.
Favorite movies: Action! And romantics!
Describe your ideal penpal: Someone who will be like me and write all of the time. I dont like when letters and packages just stop coming abruptly or to lose a new friend.
What age do you want them to be? 15-22,
What sex do you want them to be? FEMALE.
Snail mail, e-mail pals, or both? Snail mail only!
How long of letters will you write? It depends. Most of the time I write medium to long length letters and often. I also sent little gifts with them! But okay, I also do send random in between letters and postcards.
What country do you want them to be from? Any!
Anything else? I would love to swap too! Recieving fat packages and boxes full of goodies. I really love crafty swaps and penpal letters with effort put into them because thats what I tend to do all of the time. I love themed swaps, and neat notebooks. Im a paper product addict! I really enjoy recieving foreign things too: toys, sweets, common snacks and drinks, teas, anything interesting! Anything handmade, too!

My letters can be long or short, it depends on the connection with my penpal, but I ALWAYS reply. :] Its just a preference of my penpal!

I'm a pretty unique individual. Part hippie, park rocker, and full time animal lover. I'm fun, quirky, spontaneous, compassionate, and basically just a big giant goofball! Im a world traveler, want to major in International Relations, and join the Peace Corps.

Journaling: I'm an AVID journaler and write every single day in my own personal journal. I love creating creative entries that are artistic and colorful. I also have the funds to send almost anywhere, and always return them.

Name: Shay
Age: 17

BERJAYA

I like: dreaming about being with TW (only I hate it when I realize how much longer I have to wait, and how the chances are crazy), love (falling in love is beautiful; but then it ends up hurting in the end, which sucks), looking at trees waving in the wind from a distance, walking down lonely roads with an intimate friend, talking nonstop, dressing up/shopping, writing (obviously), reading (not as obvious, and I don't read as much as I used to), drawing/painting/sketching (not as much as I used to though), laughing, realizing how alive this world is, psychology, philosophy, learning about history, analyzing literature

I dislike: calling up my ex-boyfriend, AP (the worst thing is knowing I was weak enough to succumb to it), waking up every morning thinking about AP now that I called him up last Wednesday and wondering why the hell he hasn't called back (fucked up or what?), people who use "gay" as an adjective or make fun of gay people, the principal of my school, who teaches us Theory of Knowledge... mm lots of things really.

What I read: I love blues-y books that read like listening to beautiful music.

Favorite authors: I wish I was brave enough to read Chuck Palahniuk. I read an excerpt from Diary once and I loved it, but I could never read the whole book because I was just too scared. This might have something to do with my OCD. Anyway, before you think I'm some kind of weird freak who can't read anything... I love Pages for You by Sylvia Brownrigg, The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy and The Last of Her Kind by Sigrid Nunez, among others. I think I'm starting to grow out of Harry Potter though..

As for the music/movies/TV shows I like, do you really need to have it listed out for you to like me? I celebrate differences when it comes to those sort of things.

My opinions:

Pornography: Objectification/Brainwashing/Oppression of women.

GLBTQ Affiliation/Same-sex Marriage: I'm all for it, and considering I'm exploring my sexuality myself, I hate it when people are so adamantly and antagonistically against so-called "different" sexualities. I'm also very intrigued by Adrienne Rich's theory of compulsory heterosexuality. I try to work with people who don't agree with me about this, but it's difficult.

Polyamory/Free Love: I used to advocate it a lot, but now I'm not sure whether it's for me or not. I think free love is only okay when all the people in the relationship(s) are okay with it. It should be honest, not just a purely casual thing about "sleeping around."

Drugs/Alcohol: I understand where drug users are coming from, sort of, maybe, but I would never do something like that myself. I'm very much straight-edge when it comes to this issue. I definitely support drugs/alcohol abuse counselling.

Psychiatry/Mental Health Issues: Psychiatric medication, though a touchy issue, is often very necessary, especially when trying to prevent psychosis. I think psychologists and psychiatrists have to work together to really help the patient. I hate it when people say they won't talk to people with mental health issues. I call that really horrid prejudice. Since I've been there, I can empathize with people who have mental health issues.

Anorexia/Bulimia: I'm definitely not "pro-anorexia," the very notion is ridiculous and abhorrent. Anorexics and bulimics need all the support they can get; rather than them having to ignore their illness, it's important to work with them so they can come out of the darkness, so to speak.

Religion: I like what Marx said about religion, but at the same time I think religion is something that should be respected and tolerated by atheists. I just don't agree with it when it leads to war and violence and communalism.

My Politics in general: I would say I'm fairly radical but unfortunately too utopian. I'm not jaded enough that I've stopped wanting an ideal world, and sometimes this belief in the innate goodness of all human beings ends up hurting me. Hm...

Snail mail: I don't trust people arbitrarily. So first let's email, and then we'll see if we want to snail mail. Is that fine?

Anyway, now that you know a few things about me, I hope you'll comment on my introductory post and add me.
