The Owner
Hello! My name is Kate. I'm twenty years old and three years into my degree at a university. I have five younger sisters, two dogs, and four cats. I love to read and spend far too much money at the bookstore. I am fascinated by Asian culture, Japanese in particular. Also I love to eat Asian food. Yummy. I have very little patience and get frustrated easily, so a lot of times you'll probably read an update that sounds something like, "Well, I started this new layout, but I got frustrated and had to take a break." I am mostly friendly person, but I'm also bipolar and I don't always know what will tip me the other way. I also like to help people, so that's pretty much the point of this site. I love to sing and dance around my room like a fool. I also love my computer, even though it doesn't have enough RAM for my webdesigning hobbies. I get irritated by people who try to stuff their religion or their politics down my throat. I love bunnies and polar bears, and also stuffed animals. I have a purple teddy bear named Ugly Bear that I put in the freezer when I have a fever, which happens a lot. I get sick the most of everyone I know. I also get hiccups a lot. I collect skeleton keys and hula girls. On my eighteenth birthday I got my tongue pierced, and yes, my mommy knows. She sent me the money to pay for it. I have three holes in my right ear and four in my left, but I can't sit still long enough to get a tattoo. Umm...I guess I'll just move on to some of my favorites.
