A little introduction...

As I don't know everyone in this class as much as I would like to, I decided to steal Sam's idea to start off this blog with a little post about me! If you already know me, feel free to ignore this post entirely :)

Where to start? Let's see....My name is Nicole and I'm from Mechanicsburg, PA. My interests include:

Reading- I like Jane Austen, JK Rowling, John Green, Mark Z. Danielewski, Charles Bukowski, and many others.
House of Leaves - Mark Z. Danielewski


Knitting- I spend a lot of my free time knitting.....a lot.
My very first attempt at a sock.


Travelling- I spend a fair bit of time in California every summer. I also lived in a monastery in the Dominican Republic for about a month. We built a community center and taught a summer school. It was freaking amazing.
El Mango, Rep. Dom.



and gaming- Portal I/II, Final Fantasy, Lego Harry Potter [don't even!], Bioshock, Day of Defeat: Source, and moar.


During the summer, I am a live-in nanny for two adorable children (a 3 yo and a 6 yo). I've spent most of the last three summers with them in southern California. During the school year, I watch them and children from about six other families interchangeably on the weekends.
Silver Strand Beach - Oxnard, CA

One other thing you should probably know: I'm a nerdfighter! If you don't know what this is, I would suggest viewing this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyQi79aYfxU
Me meeting John and Hank Green! Squeeeeee!
And if you haven't already figured this out...I like pictures. Pictures are awesome. Get used to it! :D

But yeah...that's a bit about me. I hope the rest of you write similar posts so I can learn a bit more about everyone in the class! If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments :]
