Fighting off bad guys one at a time...

Hi World.


Hi world! Welcome to the life of me. At this particular moment, the life of me simply means sitting a room about 12 feet wide and 20 feet long, filled with enough stuff for 2 teenage girls to live happily. It's not too shabby - we like it. My roommate and I get along great (shocker) .. but really.. you would be surprised how many nightmare stories there are about roommates hating each other - especially on this campus! We are fortunate that we get along great and can't imagine being here without each other.



For those of you who don't know me that well, I am a freshman (blah!) at Keuka College in upstate New York. It is out in the middle of no where, with quite literally nothing entertaining to do.. but leave it to me to find SOMETHING. So I spend my free time volunteering at the Ambulance Corps. I like it a lot and I am currently in the process of being certified as an EMT. I am already certified as an ambulance driver, so if nothing else I at least get the fun of driving down the street with lights and sirens. :)

Aside from that, I am working on getting two degrees - one in Criminal Justice and one in Psychology with a concentration on Forensics. What do I want to do with all that? Oh who knows.. Behavioral Psychology! Studying psychopaths and profiling serial killers.. why not? Someone has to do and it fascinates me to no end! I'm currently taking 23 credits.. through a fluke in the system. Unfortunately the maximus credit load here is 18 so they won't be letting me get away with 23 pretty much ever again, but I'm pretty fine with not being overly stressed out for the rest of my life! LOL
I'm sure I am forgetting just about a million details about "life" right now, but I'm sleepy (what's new.. i'm a college student) and I have crocheting to do before bed since I am practically running a sweat shop in my dorm room. LOL This is what happens when you are too poor to buy Christmas presents.. HOPE EVERYONE WANTS A SCARF!! :-)
Good night world.

Hi Kristi....wow, you are one busy girl. I'm a RN so I know how much training you are going through to get you EMT. Your mom always talk about how brilliant, talented, beautiful and wonderful you are but I thought she was just bragging. Don't burn yourself out! You go girl....we need more heroes.

Wow! And I thought I was an overachiever when I was in college. Here's some advice from someone who's been there: enjoy every single minute, including your minutes of rest.
