Wow, you want to hear about me and my life? You must be bored. Anyway, my name is Karen, and I like penguins.
If you would like to read Goings-on with me, click here. If you are more into photos, you might want to go Here!
I am 18 years old and attending Red Deer College (it is my first year). I am in the Bachelor of Science General program, and I am hoping to transfer to the U of A in a few years so that I can take their molecular genetics program.
I think that I shall make a table!
That seems like the typical thing to do.

This is my little house! As you can see it is not very big. And it is located in my parents back yard. But I don't care, it gives me a psuedo-feeling of independence.

This is my fat cat sara. She lives in my little house with me. She is a weirdo cat. But I love her anyway. She cuddles up with me. Although, she makes messes in my house. No one will believe me, but I swear she messes up my house!!! ohwell. She keeps the mice out.
This is my best friend Gilbert. Him and I go on all kinds of crazy adventures together. He was the first stuffed penguin that I ever purchased and he began my whole penguin collection/fetish. If you want to learn more about him (and see some crazy pictures) you can visit Gilbert's Page!. People often wonder why I decided to buy him out of all the stuffed animals in the store - honestly he just caught my eye. I am not sure why I named him Gilbert either. My mom advised me not to give him such a name, but I did anyway and now I am quite happy with it.
This is my boyfriend Chris. We have been going out for four months (on april 22nd). I think he is super duper cute :D And nice. And he is a sweet heart. *nods*
