Happy Holidays!! Okay, so it's a little early to start saying that, but this project requires more thought, planning, and time than your regular holiday gift exchange. We will be exchanging real life gifts with one another! (: No matter your holiday, you can still participate in our gift giving festivities.

Rules:
1. This is a gift exchange. Signing up means you give as well as get, ;D.
2. This exchange is anonymous! The only person who needs to know who you're assigned to is you. There will be a reveal following the date when the gifts are to be postmarked and sent on their way, <3.
3. Gifts should be at least a $25 value [before postmarking]. Homemade gifts are highly encouraged, however, as well as items that may be unique to your city/area/country/continent! We have guardians from a great many places and it's more special to send something with meaning and heart.
4. If you do not feel that you have the time or resources to complete your assignment, you must tell us immediately so we may compensate and make arrangements for the exchange.

Dates:
Signups: September 11th - September 22nd
Assignments sent by: September 22nd
Deadline for mailing gifts: November 15th
Big Reveal: December 25th
Why so early? Because of the unpredictability of the snail mail system, we want to ensure that everyone's gifts arrive this year and not the next. Besides, even if they do arrive early, it avoids the rush and stress of the holiday season and helps to begin said season on a happy note! ^__^

Favourite Colour(s): I like color combinations. Particularly black, red, and gold, though I'm also fond of purple and lime green.

Favourite Utensil: chopsticks and spoons, because spoon is a fun word.
Favourite Bands: Dir en grey, D'espairsRay, Disturbed, Franz Ferdinand, Modest Mouse, Rob Zombie, A Perfect Circle, Aerosmith, David Bowie, Nine Inch Nails, Led Zepplin, Ozzy Ozbourne, Billy Squier, and the list could go on forever and ever, though uhm.. I obviously listen to a lot of rock music. I'm particularly fond of classic rock, but Dir en grey has owned my soul since 1998.
Favourite Movies: Koroshiya Ichi, The Emporer's New Groove (hahahah XD <3), Pirates of the Carribean, Lake Placid, Pitch Black & Chronicles of Riddick, Tremors (I want a pet graboid ;o; )Howl's Moving Castle and every other film Miyazaki-san has created.

Characters that make me squee: Farfarello, Duo Maxwell, Sephiroth, Vincent, Loz, Volt, and Kou

Anything you should not be sent?: uhh.. nothing immediately inappropriate comes to mind other than obvious things like.. uh.. anthrax and bombs. XD;
Any comments/suggestions to your Secret Santa?: I am the sort of person that tends to be more fascinated by the box that something came in than the thing itself. Just so you know. I also really like small trinkets and shiny, insignificant things. I also really like ribbons. I have two photo boxes full (possibly three now, I forget). I really like colored pens and am always on the search for spiffy ones. I greatly appreciate things people draw and/or make themselves. Uhhh.. other than that I can't think of what else to say.
