Orientation: Personally, I don't think that this question should matter, since I'm looking for pen PALS, not pen LOVERS, but whatever. I'm bisexual.

Piercings/tattoos: Piercings - one in each ear, one in my right eyebrow. Tattoos - one on the back of my neck (shooting stars) and one on my left side, from my hip to my armpit (a weird bunny rabbit/man..thing....if you're curious, I can send you a picture. lol)

About Me:
I am......unique, to say the least. I honestly don't judge people, so I have friends of every type you can imagine, and I'm always willing to make more! I live with my boyfriend and 2 of our friends (and also our two cats--I'm still the only girl D:), and I love it. My boyfriend and I love hockey, and our favorite team is the Buffalo Sabres (even though neither one of us is from NY. haha), and any other sport is blecch. I love going to Rainbow Gatherings (it's a hippie gathering, not a gay gathering, fyi), and concerts, and I'm definitely a hippie at heart. ****I DO NOT TALK POLITICS WITH FRIENDS**** I've learned that it only starts fights and ruins friendships, so my policy is DON'T DO IT and everything will be fine. I AM AN ARTIST. Mostly a photographer (which is the career I'm attempting to pursue - my website is RenDuH.deviantart.com), but I dabble in a bit of everything--I sew, I sculpt, I paint, I draw, I do origami, I cook, I do makeup....and that's only the beginning. haha I'm a very complex person, so the best way to understand me is to talk to me. :)
Interests:
[warning - this is gonna be LONG] Photography, Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, Invader Zim, ska music, Connecticut (my whole family lives there), hockey, painting, the color orange, old movies, hippies, tie dye, antiques, fedoras, cute dresses, camping, playing guitar, singing, World of Warcraft, Portal, animals, food/cooking, drawing, origami, reading, learning, the country of Greece (it looks SO beautiful!), history, Mitch Hedberg, comedy in general, Ybor City (in FL)....I'll just leave it at that, for now.
Music:
Oh, you do not even KNOW. I think the only genres of music that I DON'T like (with the exception of one or two songs) are rap, hip-hop, and country. Here's a sampling of my favorite bands (in alphabetic order, because I keep this list on file so I don't waste time whenever this question is asked.

XD
Pen Pal Info:
How many pen pals do you have? Sort of one....a girl I've known since I was 13 (through email only) who lives in Germany. But we rarely ever talk anymore because she's gotten really busy with school....
How many do you want? At least one, no more than 5.
Do you want email pals? Meh....I guess so....I like snail mail SO much better though.
Do you want snail-mail pen pals? [See above!]
How long are your letters? Usually at least one page, and if I have more to say, could be longer...
How long does it take you to reply to a letter? Usually only a week, at the most. Just depends on how busy I am.
Would you like your pen pal to be male or female? Preferably female, or gay male. Mostly just because it'd be extremely awkward for me otherwise, seeing as I have a boyfriend....and I'm sure HE wouldn't be too comfortable with it, either ;)
Age? 15-25, but that's just a general range. I really don't think I could relate to someone much younger than 15 (plus, it might seem a little creepy to that person's parents, I think....), and over 25 is fine, as long as there's something we have in common, at least. :)
What are you looking for in a pen pal? Someone who WILL WRITE to me. Not someone who will send 2 or 3 letters, and then stop. Also, someone who is willing to send me stuff (ex., photos, stickers, drawings, and other little stuff, at least, because that's what I like to do, too. I occassionally will send little packages as well, and it's always nice to have someone who will return the favor ;)) I would LOVE to be able to meet other photographers, and maybe exchange pictures!! :D
Where would you like them to be from? Ideally, somewhere (ANYwhere) outside the US, preferably, but within the US is fine, too :) I just like talking to people.
MOST RECENT: Me, the boyfriend, and our two cats (orange one = Sig, fat one = Rio)
