Hello everyone. My name is Karen and I'm an English Education major. Shepherd is the fourth (and hopefully, last) school I've attended in pursuit of my bachelor's degree. Being young and undecisive, I changed majors several times, continuously delaying my graduation. But if all goes according to my new plan, I'll graduate (finally) in the spring of 2005. I live in Martinsburg now, but I grew up in Loudoun County, Virginia. I have lots of varied interests. I love cooking and enjoy having fancy dinner parties. I like to play golf and racquetball, and I love just about any outdoor activity; I find a lot of peace being surrounded by nature. I had an amazing summer. Though much of my time was spent working, I did travel to San Diego for a little over a week, and it was quite romantic. I also played in a golf tournament and received third place (admittedly, there were only three teams).
