Bio
I'm a college student, attending the College of St. Benedict/St. John's University in St. Joseph, MN. I'm majoring in English and currently minoring in History, though with the (hopeful!) arrival of a book arts minor, that will change. ************************************ I don't know much about the ways and workings of the world, but I'm slowly learning. Sometimes what I learn about people and society is upsetting, but I refuse to give up hope. I have faith that people are ultimately good, even if what we see is not always that way. ************************************ I've never blogged before, so this will be an interesting experience. Please bear with me.

I guess I could give a little more background on myself. As I've… Read full post »
