BioSilly 26 year old chemist equestrian who graduated Vanderbilt '05 and now at Penn State for a doctorate in chemistry. Loves nerds, ChemDraw, and an inverted microscope equipped with a 60x oil immersion lens.
A few weird facts about me:
-I like the smell of gasoline.
-My fingers and toes are double-jointed.
-I have perfect pitch. Wikipedia reports that this is found in only 1 in 10,000 people.
-My eyes are so light blue that they're almost colorless. As a result, I'm kind of photosensitive.
-I can do a handstand against a wall.
-My favorite flowers are stargazer lilies.
-I speak good French, okay Russian and Japanese, and not-so-fluent colloquial Slovak.
-I have never gotten an ice-cream headache. If you people slowed down and savored the ice cream, maybe you wouldn't get them, either.
-One day, I would love to be a wine connoisseur.
-I am an incorrigible early riser.
-I love nerdy boys. Nerds are the way to go.
-I am fiercely loyal to driving stickshift cars. If it ain't got a manual transmission, I don't want to drive it.
-If you call me Kristin and you're a Vandy or Penn State person, I will think you're mad at me or trying to be very serious, because pretty much no one at Vandy or PSU calls me Kristin. It's Quis, the college nickname that will never die.
-My eyebrows have always been and will remain untouched by tweezers.
-When I was a little kid, I rode horseback western and bareback. In college, at the behest of my roommate and fellow chemgal Boo, I started to ride hunter/jumper. In 2 years of riding, I've managed to jack the jumps up to 2'6" and still stay on.
-I still rock a 4 year old iRiver iHP-120 20 GB mp3 player, because iPods are for sheep. Hopefully it will see me through grad school.
-I am a faithful blood donor, type O positive. I give every 8 weeks. I have given 16 times so far.
...More to come....
