Well, my name is Karen (big surprise there) and I'm a 20
year old computer science major, just finishing my 3rd
year at Michigan Technological University, and president
of this college's anime club. I use my real name here
because I'm tired of keeping all my nicknames straight,
although I'm often called the following nicknames in real
life: java goddess ^_^; (long story), computer karen, ck, cs, k, lord of nightmares(longer story), chaos incarnate
(see previous), bringer of the apocolypse (even longer story
involving a small AI I wrote when bored), Xellas, 
anime-karen, anime girl, kawaii-chan(i wish this didn't
stick). I've also been called crazy, insane, among other
things. 

I really got into anime when I was in 10th grade or so, and
started out on Sailormoon fansubs, and ranma, followed soon
after by Tenchi Muyu, then Slayers(My all time fav ^_-)

I collect mostly Slayers cels, mostly to keep down spending.
I started following this group last August or so, but didn't
post until November. I bought my first cel Nov 3, 1999, on
my 20th b-day ;) The only reason I waited so long is that I
wanted my 1st cel to be of Xelloss (mazoku rule).

I used to collect *any* type of anime merchandise, but I
now pretty much only collect cels, mostly because they are
much nicer than items like Sailor Moon spatulas, and take
up much less room to store than most items.

I've managed over the years to incorporate anime into my
life in so many ways. I managed to write a term paper in
my classic lit class relating gulliver's travels to
laputa: an island in the sky. Xelloss was the model I chose
for my 3-d graphical programming class. (Xelloss can also
be found as easter eggs in most of my projects ^_^;)I also
made various anime items in my sculpting class.

Unfortunately, my school has only 8000 students, and is
surrounded by nothing but woods and water, so there isn't
any cool anime shops or anything. Thank goodness for the
internet, eh? 

Well, I think I've babbled on long enough about myself. Hope
that I didn't frighten too many people away ^_-

Karen
