So who's responsible for all this nonsense? Well, my name is Christine Smith and I am currently a student at Duquesne University , located in Pittsburgh, PA. While I'm here, I will be working on getting a Bachelor of Arts in Latin, a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics, and a Bachelor of Science in Education. When I'm not at school, I reside in Chippewa Twp., PA, which is about thirty-five miles northwest of Pittsburgh.

As for how I managed to start a webpage, you can read all about it in Communication Attempts, whenever I get around to writing it down. It's sort of a funny story, but then again most of them are.

• Edgar Allan Poe
• This is my favorite weird and wacky author. Hopefully I'll collect some links for everyone, one of these days. Until then, you are at least aware of my obsession!
• Horses

• These four-legged creatures captured my heart when I was barely yet able to walk, and I haven't been able to leave them since. Here at Duquesne I was a member (and secretary) of the newly-created Equestrian Team, an intercollegiate competition team who is doing quite well for arriving at Duquesne at the same time I did. Unfortunately, a nasty bout with tendonitis has taken me out of the horsey scene, at least until after college sometime. <sniff>
• The Red Masquers
  • The oldest student run theatre group here at Duquesne, which is a group of the best people I would hope to find. We do non-musical productions and I can usually be found behind the scenes helping out somewhere.
• Rugburn
  • Somehow the name for our Ultimate Frisbee here at Duquesne seemed appropriate, as we have to do all our practicing on some awful Astroturf. Every time someone makes a dive, we feel his pain. We've done all right, considering the 98-99 season was the team's first. Since then, even though I rarely get time to practice or participate much, the team has become a name to reckon with!
• Origami
  • Say what? The Japanese art of paper folding has held endless hours of entertainment for me, causing frustration, irritation, various mental breakdowns, etc. But I keep doing it because it’s so cool when you can turn a square piece of paper into those complicated creations.
• Mortar Board
  • Since I've gathered so many credits, I was inducted into this honors society a year early and am very happy about it. It's very selective and an honor. Yes, they have a webpage. We do some service projects and work hard on selecting new members for the following year.
