*****
I'm Kara. I'm 20 years old. Female. About 163cm & 47kg. I have long-ish blonde/brown wavy hair and brown/hazel eyes.
I'm currently studying Animal and Veterinary Bioscience at La Trobe University (makes me sound smart doesn't it?). I'm in my third year and final year, and loving it. Before anyone asks, I DO NOT want to be a Vet. For one thing I'm not smart enough. As for what I do want to do career-wise, I don't know yet. Kinda hoping someone will be like "You're good for this job" and I'll say "Great, I'll do it!". I know that's naive, but oh well. I think I'd like to get into research, animal behaviour and ecology, wildlife conservation or something, as they have been what I've been most interested in.
I learn and help teach dancing at Charlesworth-Walsh Dance Centre. I learn ballet & jazz, which also includes doing contemporaries, nationals, hip-hop / funk, competitions, productions, and whatever else my teacher's come up with. I'm sort of at what's now known as "Advanced 2" level (sort of as in I didn't do the Advanced 1 exam, but oh well). I assist teaching beginners and a class of grade 3's and 4's, and I try to help with some of the other grades as well when Rossy needs me to help. At comps two years ago the seniors had one of their best wins ever, in the Open Age Classical. We were "mezmerising" according to the judge. And then last year we won another big one - Open Age National (this was a big one to win, because the dance is amazing, Rossy did an awesome job in the choreography, and we were hoping to win it the year before, but we screwed up the ending... oh well... we kicked ass last year, and are hoping to kick ass again this year!)
I work at Knox Leisure Works - YMCA, where I'm a recreation leader and an aquatic education instructor. I love my job. Taking birthday parties and working on the holiday program as a rec leader can be so much fun, and teaching kids to how to swim and be safe in the water is so rewarding.
I used to swim with Nunawading Swimming Club. I "retired" in 2006 because I was sick of dealing with injured knees & shoulders, and I didn't feel I could progress any further. I finished on a high note, with my best performances at the 2006 Vic State Champs. Where I got to swim 100m backstroke, 200m backstroke & 200m freestyle. I finished 14th in the 200m back. Although I have had many good wins and medal places during the years, States is somewhere I never did that well place-wise, and i finally places somewhere I was really happy with. Even though I never really made places my priority, it was always about beating my best times.
I love my family and all my friends. I love spending time with everyone, going out and dancing the night away, while singing loudly and badly to songs (hehe). I love shopping, listening to music, watching tv, and bumming on the net (which I tend to do frequently).
Well, that's pretty much all there is to know bout me... any questions?
