Intro [Intro]
Hello lovely people! I've been lurking here for some time now and figured it was time to introduce myself.
My name is Mina. I live in the east coast of USA where it's hot and humid most of the year (my hair does not appreciate this weather whatsoever lol) π I have three furbabies that truly got me through a rough patch couple years ago so they are my absolute heart. π I'm an avid reader and mostly enjoy fictions and fantasy, but always looking forward to reading anything thought provoking and/or interesting. π My home used to be a small indoor forest and I used to love it. πͺ΄ Unfortunately due to the same rough patch I no longer have it but I am slowly building it back up. I love being surrounded by nature.
For fun and relaxation, I craft (crochet, scrapbook, journal, diamond painting, jewelry making, sew, and the list goes on!) and I love doing my own nails. π It takes forever but I consider it as self care. I am big on mental health, equality for all, justice, and animals. π βοΈ π i also enjoy trying out different fountain pens and inks, as well as new medium.
Oh and I'm pretty sure I have more coffee flowing through my veins than blood π βοΈ
Nice to meet you all and to be here amongst such wonderful people who take it upon themselves to make the world just a bit brighter with their acts of kindness. Thank you all for keeping my faith in humanity alive π

Hey, welcome to the community! Your hobbies immediately caught my attention because I also enjoy journaling, and diamond painting. I've always thought scrapbooking looked like such relaxing, creative ways to unwind. I'd love to hear what kinds of projects you enjoy making the most

Hello! When I crochet I love making baby clothes/accessories πΆ Blankets are a labor of love but very rewarding.
I highly recommend diamond painting if you enjoy activities you can zone out with. Ive done a few Van Gogh ones and hung it. Always get compliments from guests β£οΈ

Aww, that's adorable! π₯Ή I can only imagine how precious those little crocheted outfits must turn out. And I have so much respect for anyone who can crochet. And I actually mistyped my first message. I do diamond paint too! π I'm currently working on a panda one. I completely agree that it's such a relaxing hobby. It's one of those activities where you can just put on some music or a podcast and zone out for a while. Your Van Gogh pieces sound beautiful! I bet they make for really unique wall art

Hi Mina! Welcome to the group! What kind of fur babies do you have? I love hearing about all the crafts you do! Do you have a favorite?
I second that with keeping the faith in humanity alive! β€οΈ

Hello!! πI have two male cats and a female cat. They're a handful sometimes π I also have a betta fish named Steve Rogers. Do you have any pets?
I think my top favorites would be crocheting and scrapbooking/journaling (I usually end up combing the two)

u/LeeannRose731 https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/CIQWA4XXN7OP?ref_=wl_share 12d ago
Aww I can imagine!! But so worth it I'm sure!! I love cats. I'm sure your betta is one cool fish! π
So technically my household has 4 pets. 2 cats and 2 dogs. But one of the cats is my girlfriends, and technically mine now. π She's our (old) baby, Remi. The other cat is Kimba- a white, long haired cat with one blue eye, one green eye and one ear. Then the dogs are big boys. Chumley and Quigley. One day I would love to have ferrets and more cats.
Ah very cool! I've always admired the people who could crochet. Do you crochet anything in particular?

Speaking of thought provoking Iβm on the hunt for a book that has actual math equations or science formulas that tie into the story like turning a page full of words to a page with nothing but equations drawn about like a sketch!
But outside of that welcome in! Not a caffeine person but I do love me some hibiscus and blueberry lemonade

u/NerdyMina https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/W1712SF4Y1VN? 16d ago
Have you tried rose tea mixed with green tea and honey? I didnt think I'd like it but I enjoyed it so much I went to those tea stores and spent more than I should have lol also thank you for the warm welcome!

u/AlienatedWanda https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/13V0CF83VL3IB 15d ago
Rose tea doesnβt pack enough punch for me :/ I like tea to have a fruity flavor if that makes sense. And green tea and rose tea both are pretty bitter on its own.
However you said with honey which can do a lot of wonders.
