Hello - Introduction Time!

Hello - I suppose reading top to bottom you might have guessed who I am, but in the case that you're strange, my name is Katie Kane.

I'm from Cadillac, a small community two hours north of here that, surprisingly, has its own Wikipedia page. The city's population is almost one fourth of that of Michigan State University: there are no bus stops, parking meters or normal-looking taxis there. Actually, the only thing that has ever happened there was the famous (to some) visit from popular folk group "KISS" in the '70s:

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a place like Cadillac springs thought, creativity, superfluous sarcasm, and general insanity. Here are my interests: I like to listen to music, I love to sleep, and I love Diet Coke. It's difficult to say much more than that because we've all changed our lifestyles completely in the past month. And, hopefully I am not alone in this - I, personally, have a lot of soul-searching to do while I'm here. Not the cheesy Barry Manilow kind - more, hopefully, of a dignified species.

Writing/Technological Experience

My background in writing is less defined in extracurriculars than some, but I can safely admit that English was by far my strongest subject in high school. I took three years of honors english, an AP course and received a 4 on the exam. This doesn't say much, though - but I'm not sure how else to describe it! I loved english class, and hope that this writing class will be no different.

As for technology, I have a working knowledge of both Macs and PCs, as well as a few blogging websites (this included) and other user-operated sites around the internet. My prowess ends at HTML and programming, though, so I doubt I'd be much use there.

What else should you know?

Until this year I played violin in several community orchestras and was an active participant in the Cadillac String Association. Also, the one thing I obsess about more than anything else on the planet is a band called The Strokes:

If you're feeling curious, would like to know their entire discography or middle names, please contact me. I consider myself an expert.

That's all for now! It's nice to join the RCAH blogosphere!
