About Me

I realized it has been quite some time since I updated this section so no better time then the present. Let’s see what’s new in the land of Katherine…well I am finally on break from classes, which is fantastic. I have been going for the past year straight so it was a much needed break. I plan to start taking full time classes in the fall; I am looking forward to it but I am also really nervous about how that will turn out. I also work full time during my days as an administrative assistant. So, I will be a very busy girl once September rolls around. My current academic plan is to get an English degree and eventually teach. This is a process that will take me into my thirties before I am finished, which is definitely an intimidating thought, but the sacrifices I make now are for the greater good of my future. I already have a degree in photography which hasn't got me far professionally, but I will never regret having the opportunity to study a passion. In my free time I read a lot, spend time with friends and Jordan (who is my amazing boyfriend) whenever I get a chance. I enjoy playing pinball, taking pictures (of course), cooking, watching movies and all the general things that people do. I would like to end with one of my favorite quotes. “The key to seeing the worlds soul, and in the process wakening ones own, is to get over the confusion by which we think that fact is real and imagination an illusion. It is the other way around."-Freeman Patterson. Well if you want to know more just write me...I'm an open book

My Interests

" This capacity to create- which we all have, is essentially the ability to find form in chaos, to create form where there is only formlessness. This is what leads us to beauty, for beauty is that form."Rollo May

I'd like to meet:


You're Bettie Page!

Music:

I generally listen to everything but here is a short list of bands that I like. Portishead, Zero 7, Massive Attack, Social Distortion, Slayer, Johnny Cash, Angels&Airwaves, Dio, The Killers, Michael Buble, Koffin Kats, so on and so forth. Oh and tons of cheesy 80's music.

Movies:

I'll watch any and all zombie movies. Also I like movies like Donnie Darko, Boondock saints and Anchor man. I love films that are character driven such as Lost in translation and Before Sunrise. My guilty pleasure movies are romantic comedies I can't help it they make me smile

Television:

I don't really watch that much television. But you can never go wrong with some adult swim and family guy. If I can find the time on the right day I try to watch House. I also like watching the daily show.

Books:

I read generally everything that comes my way. I really enjoyed reading Short stories by James Joyce, Franz Kafka, and Joseph Conrad. As for novels I like to read Chuck Palahniuk, Kurt Vonnegut, Barbara Kingsolver and other such authors. I also have enjoyed reading works by Henry Rollins. I love books on photography especially ones like "Photo Impressionism" and “Photography and the Art of Seeing” by Freeman Patterson, it's a combination of technique and philosophy. My guilty pleasure author is Dean Koontz.

Heroes:

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe.-Albert Einstein

The stess is worth it...

I have managed for the second quarter in a row to achieve a 4.0 in both classes I have taken.  It feels so good, especially after how much pressure I put on myself.  So once again hard work ...

A shirt I have worn many times...

  Why is it that we allow others to project their insecurities and idiosyncrasies on to us, as if it is a reflection of who we are and what we have done?  Why is it when we are with someone ...
