Bio

History says, Don't hope
On this side of the grave.
But then, once in a lifetime
The longed for tidal wave
Of justice can rise up,
And hope and history rhyme.

So hope for a great sea-change
On the far side of revenge.
Believe that a further shore
Is reachable from here.
Believe in miracles
And cures and healing wells.
~Seamus Heaney from "The Cure at Troy"

That's part of my favorite poem, by one of the greatest poets alive. :)

About me: I'm a senior at Indiana University Southeast, majoring in International Studies and Political Science, with my research concerning the Northern Ireland Troubles and the Irish Republican movement. I'm planning to go on Foreign Study to Dublin next spring, and then hopefully (fingers crossed) do my graduate study at Queen's University or at the University of Ulster at Magee.

I love Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Start Trek, Les Mis, and all sorts of musical theater and sci-fi.

I've finished my semester, and ended up with all A's and one B+ in my major. I'm quite happy about that.

Apparantly, according to all the quizzes, I'm a bit of a Hufflepuff, but I'm not sure that's so bad, even if everyone does think they're the wusses of Hogwarts. I don't see what's so wrong about being innocent and kind.

Anyway, enjoy my journal!

i'm in hufflepuff!
