who | what | why | background | FAQ | links | email | notify | forum | archive | home A brief bio: I'm a thirty year old returning student - I'm that "older" person in your classes who probably drives/drove you nuts. The one with their hand in the air? The one participating in the discussion? The one volunteering to read aloud? The one who gets all the professors' literary jokes? That's me. I attend a public university in New Jersey, and I'm on track to graduate with my B.A. in English in December 2002, summa cum laude. (If I waited this long to get it, I might as well do it right.) I love school so much that I will come back and walk in the May graduation ceremony, even though I will (hopefully) already be attending graduate school at a private Pennsylvania university. Technically I only need one class to graduate - a writing intensive seminar - but my advisor is offering a course in the Romantics, and how am I supposed to pass that up? I'm scheduled to begin both classes in September. I'm married and I live in a Philadelphia suburb. When I'm not obsessing about Romantic poetry, I also read like a fiend and direct theatre. I keep a web journal here for anyone who's more curious about me than they are about Romantic poetry, but then, you wouldn't be here if that were the case - would you?
