Get the The Salem Effectmug. Salem is the kind of person everybody wants to be friends with. She is popular, friendly, and has a great sense of humor. Salem loves animals almost as much as she loves people, maybe more. She loves, animals, reading, and being creative. While she jumps around friends often she can be counted on to be a loyal bestie. She has a unique aura that people are drawn to and sometimes has a hard time with all of the attention. She probably also has really pretty eyes that match the brightness of her personality. She is very easy to talk to and people tell her all of their secrets which she does her best not to spill. Salem is definitely a friend worth making.
