Hello, it's nice to meet you!!! :D
I’m Zoë (she/her), a proud Native Hawaiian born and raised on O‘ahu currently residing in Arizona. I’m a mail enthusiast, USPS fangirl, and serial shopper. I love my boyfriend, sister, our boys in blue (Post Office workers), my Epson Perfection V39II, drawing, selfshipping, stickers, and a whole bunch of other nonsense. I dream of one day working at the Post Office. LGBT (bisexual + bigender), sex positive, and down with the clown. Whoop whoop!!
⚠️ I'm flying home for the holidays and will be unable to check my mailbox from 12/22 to 1/1. Sorry for the inconvenience! ⚠️
I realize that I do like a lot of specific shows/things so first here's some general stuff I like! (If you aren't into reading long walls of text, I have swap preferences and an ABC's of me at the bottom of my page!)
My favorite colors are any shade of blue (with a preference towards cyan, baby blue, and turquoise), pink, and blood red! I love chihuahuas, chihuahua-terriers (got 2 back home that I miss dearly), and cute cats. Food themed items are perfect because my eyes are way bigger than my stomach. Favorite restaurant is Chili's. I adore Sanrio characters and other kawaii themed things. If you recognize any of the characters/fandoms I'm into, I would love anything related or even vaguely similar. :) Total believer in live, laugh, love!
I love drawings, notes, letters, or even just a quick hello written on scrap paper - it's fun to read and I like seeing other peoples handwriting. I wanna hear about YOU, so feel free to talk about yourself!
Music is a HUGE part of my life. Mom sings, dads a DJ, I was a hardcore band geek (in concert, jazz, pep, and marching band), and my boyfriend is a music teacher. I love karaoke, singing in the car with my sister, going to concerts, dancing, musicals, all of it! I played trombone and euphonium and my partner is a bassoonist so naturally I have a bias towards those instruments. xD
Gorillaz is my favorite band and Bruno Mars is my favorite singer!!! :D Both of them have such lovely voices, I can't help but sing or dance along. I've seen Gorillaz live at Life Is Beautiful 2017 and I hope to be proposed to at a Bruno concert haha.
I like a bunch of musicians, including (but not limited to): Eminem, Insane Clown Posse, Daft Punk, TWRP, Ninja Sex Party, Lemon Demon, Panic! At The Disco, The Living Tombstone, *NSYNC, Ben Folds, Falling In Reverse, Mindless Self Indulgence/EURINGER, The Beatles, Tally Hall, Oingo Boingo, DEMONDICE, and Lana Del Rey. I also listen to musical and videogame soundtracks (Hamilton, Wicked, West Side Story, Last Five Years, Sonic, Persona, etc.).
I'm a big fan of Sonic, Persona, and Danganronpa so I hold some really strong opinons on certain games, characters, etc. The titles I like the most are Sonic '06, Boom, Generations, Colors, Persona 4, Persona 5, Trigger Happy Havoc, Goodbye Despair, and Ultra Despair Girls. My absolute favorite videogames of all time are Mario Kart Wii, Shadow the Hedgehog (2005), and Subnautica.
Some other games I like are Fallout: New Vegas, Pikmin 2, Fortnite, Tomodachi Life, Animal Crossing New Leaf/New Horizons, Minecraft, My Sims, Stardew Valley, Doki Doki Literature Club!, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4, Team Fortress 2, and Aggressive Inline. I used to be super into Overwatch but I stopped enjoying it around 2019. :(
I love fictional characters...like...a LOT. I'm a selfshipper with multiple fictional others (fictional significant other), comfort characters, and favorites that I borderline kin. I love drawing my favorites and/or commissioning others to draw them. My all time favorites are Shadow the Hedgehog (Sonic), Morgana (Persona 5), Mitsuo Kubo (Persona 4), Loki Laufeyson (The Avengers, Thor, Thor: The Dark World), Lapis Lazuli (Steven Universe), Seto Kaiba (Yu-Gi-Oh!), Cinnamoroll, Bad Badtz-Maru, and Little Twin Stars (Sanrio).
Other characters I like include Ryuji Sakamoto, Yukiko Amagi, Tohru Adachi, Yosuke Hanamura, Teddie (Persona), Luigi, Waluigi, Bowser Jr., Rosalina (Mario), Cranston, Antonio, Sparro, Monty, Deli, Goldie (Animal Crossing) Yuri, Natsuki (Doki Doki Literature Club), Kiyotaka Ishimaru, Sayaka Maizono, Mukuro Ikusaba, Hiyoko Saionji, Kazuichi Souda, Seiko Kimura (Danganronpa), Fresh Punch, Aggretsuko, Haida (Sanrio), Afro Ken (San-X), Beerus, Vegeta, Freiza (Dragon Ball), and a LOT more!!!
Grouping these categories because I feel like they aren't big enough to justify their own sections! I don't really watch shows or movies unless they really interest me...reading is great and I'd like to do it more often, but...I don't know, I'm lazy. :,)
My favorite shows are Bojack Horseman, Arcane, and Steven Universe. I also like Teasing Master-Takagi-san, Persona 4 the Animation, Sgt.Frog, Saiki K., Aggretsuko, Boys Over Flowers, The Cuphead Show, Black Mirror, Squid Game, Sonic Prime, and Sonic Boom.
My favorite movie is Princess and the Frog, with Coraline and A Silent Voice trailing close behind. I also like Sonic the Hedgehog 1 & 2 (& soon to be 3!!! ❤️), Wreck It-Ralph, DBZ: Battle of Gods, DBS: Super Hero, Thor, The Avengers, Nimona, Spider-man: Into the Spiderverse, Deadpool, The Batman, Talk To Me, Warm Bodies, Steven Universe: The Movie, Five Nights at Freddy's, Misery, The Hunger Games trilogy, The Twilight Saga, and a whole bunch I can't even remember right now.
I haven't read an actual book in a while, whoops! >_< My favorites are Misery by Stephen King, the Chibi Vampire series by Yuna Kagesaki, I Am a Hero by Kengo Hanazawa, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, Zoe Letting Go by Nora Price, and The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. I think the most recent thing I've read was the November 2006 and April 1993 editions of Playboy magazine (I'm not into magazines and given Playboy's reputation, I didn't think there'd be that much to read! I was pleasantly surprised).
I mark swaps as “sent” after I put them in the mailbox! If you ever receive something from me that requires extra postage, please let me know (I’d be more than happy to send stamps or pay the difference via PayPal/venmo). I always read my partner’s profile(s) and try my hardest to send things you’ll like.
✨ Swap/mail favorites:
Postcards - Pinup, vintage humor, animals, cartoons/anime, videogames, Sanrio/kawaii, Hawaii
Stamps - Love series (the 2023 Puppy & Kitty stamps are my all time favorite), sea creatures, animals, fruit, florals/nature
Colors - Blue (any shade, but I'm a big fan of baby blue, cyan, and turquoise), pink, red (mostly blood red and neon)
20 UGLY STICKERS/Ugly PC series - Anything goes, no restrictions! Try not to think of me, the focus of those swaps is to send things you think are ugly :)
✨ Items/content I don't mind:
• Swearing
• Pinup girls/nude pictorials (on postcards or stationary items)
• Religious items (I’m not super religious but If this is your cup of tea, go for it)
• Tourist themed PCs
• Handmade PCs
Please try not to send anything pro Army, Navy, Air Force, cop, etc. (unless it's humorous in nature). I don't tolerate racism, homophobia, or transphobia. I do realize that some vintage humor postcards can be a bit misogynistic, but it doesn't usually bother me. As long as the punchline isn’t assault, non-consent, or "I hate my wife," I’m good to go!
I don't really enjoy getting knock-off vinyl stickers from Amazon, Wish, etc. There's a couple cool designs from time to time but lots of the artwork used is stolen and it's really not my steez. :( I may decorate envelopes/stationary with these but I try not to send them as extras. Rest assured, I WILL appreciate any and everything you send. I swap for the love of mail and to interact with lovely people such as yourself.
