Greetings everyone,
For those of you whome I did not get a chance to speak with on my original thread that brought me here, Hello!My name is Arielle but my forum name is an appropriate nick name too. I stumbled upon my first Windstone accidentally when I found a Black Bat Winged Flap Cat at a thrift store and purchased it for 3$. He is the only piece in my collection right now. I was laid off last April when the book store I worked at went out of business, so I have no funds to allocate to my new found collecting right now. However, I’ve recently decided to use my knowledge of what can be found at thrift stores and the ebay market to make some extra money for school and Windstone, so hopefully my second piece will be gracing me in a month or so! (Think of me as a cross between the people on the TV show ‘Hoarders’ and the two guys on the show ‘American Pickers’).
I’m an art student at the Community College level right now. I recently switched from going to school for Wildlife Biology, figuring I could keep my volunteer jobs to work around animals. Once finished with my associates, I intend to further my education with an Illustration degree. My ultimate dream is to study or work in Japan. I have the intent of working in the Video Game Industry (which I am a huge nerd for video games btw). I also participate in costuming play such as the SCA and LARPing.
That’s pretty much it for me. These forums seem full of friendly people and I’d like to meet other collectors, new or experienced.
