Introducing: Katie

Hi!  I'm Katie, often known as kteelee on the internet.  I'm 21 and I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia, although I'm actually from a more rural area of the province.  I've spent four years in Halifax for university.  I go to a small liberal arts school which is basically like Hogwarts but without the magic.  I study French and Early Modern Studies (to save you asking: philosophy, literature, history, etc. from about the fifteenth to eighteenth centuries).  In a few months I'll be graduating, which is terrifying, and next year I'm going to law school, which is also terrifying (things I wish people didn't know about me: I spend a lot of my time being terrified).

Outside of school, I'm a member of a local swing dance society, which is so much fun!  It's one of my absolute favourite things ever.  I also take minutes for my student union, which is really interesting, but not very fun.  I play piano and clarinet, although not particularly well any more due to lack of practice in the past couple years.  Aside from that, I enjoy reading, writing, baking, knitting, watching Disney movies, and trying to get caught up on Doctor Who.

As for what I'm doing in my life right now, I've been working on my honours thesis, which is about missionaries in seventeenth century New France, but I won't bore you with too many details on that.  I'm also in the process of choosing which of the law schools I applied to I'm actually going to go to next year.  Those two things have been taking up most of my time recently, but pretty soon they'll be done with and I'll have time to think about other things again.

I think that's it for me.  I'm looking forward to hearing about the rest of you soon!
