Okay, it's been awhile. Since I last updated, I have:

- Gone vegan.
- Started online school. Fell into slump. Climbing out of slump as you read this.
- Strengthened my childfree decision by watching Nanny 911 often. Goddamn.
- Started watching anime again, sorta. I'll watch an episode of BLEACH or Hellsing every now and then. Good fun.
- Got a new computer that makes The Sims 2 run even faster.
- Become an Everquest II nerd. Level 17 Ogre Bruiser lolz
- Nearly completed my dyke transformation. Thank you very much, previous boyfriends.
- Regained interest in writing my story "Cosea Beckons!"
- Started reading the Harry Potter series.
- Finished Xenosaga Episode II.
- Started playing Final Fantasy IV. Old skool lolz
- Still been waiting for Marie Antoinette to come to theatres. Come on, dammit, come on!

And that's about it.

So, it's finally 06/06/06. I must admit, I was getting a little woried after hearing about terrorists in Canada, but it doesn't seem like Satan has risen from the bowels of the underworld yet. But, it's still early! *touches wood*

I don't think anything significant will happen.

Now, I just wish I was in Hell, Michigan for the party.

Children still speak of us, from Cork to Belfast, from the River Shannon, to the bustling streets of Dublin. We still infest the Emerald Isle long after our passing. They call us The Crimson Viper and The Emerald Vulture. Our tactics have dubbed us so. My Viper, Lynelle Paddock, ensnares the minds of fools; I, the Vulture, Douglas Shaw, rids that very fool of his life and his riches.

My name is Katrina Leigh-Irene Trepanier Bain, though Trepanier (my mother's maiden name) is not on my birth certificate, I unofficially took it along with my father's last name as a means of thanks to my mother. With any luck, my name will one day be shortened to Katrina Townsend or Raetz, depending on what legal measures my future spouse -- AHEM -- will take regarding his last name. I turned sixteen years old as of Februarty 14th. Yup, I'm a Valentine's Day baby. I'm a middle-class inhabitant of Vancouver, a cesspool of filth that I love with all my heart. I live in a pink apartment. Seriously. It's pink. I'm currently attending Windermere Secondary School, and am in the process of attempting to pass the tenth grade. I am of Irish, French, Scottish, and English descent, primarily.

I live with my parents, Vince and Susan. My dad is a longshoreman. My mother used to be a hairstylist, but took a leave from her job to have me. There were several unexpected complications with the birth, so she did not return to work for quite some time. She went back when I was about 5 years old, but soon after quit and has shown little interest in returning to work since. She's a housewife, pretty much. I have no siblings, and I am very, very thankful for that.

My dad's side of the family lives around the area. My grandparents' names are Joan and Allan. Along with my father, they had two other children -- Lisa and Steve. Lisa is apparently an abusive woman who divorced her husband and had difficulties keeping her son, while Steve is a druggie who gave me his SNES while he was high. The genes are quite diverse. I have one cousin on this side, Maxwell, who I haven't seen or heard from in years.

My mom's side of the family, however, lives in Ontario. My grammy and grampy, Angela and George respectively, spend most of their time in Las Vegas nowadays. My aunt and uncles waste away their lives breeding as much offspring as possible. I only have four cousins from this side of the family thus far, but trust me, the women will be shooting out babies like they're sprinklers sooner or later.

It's hard to keep track of, but I'm around 5'7" or so. Could be taller, could be shorter, who knows? My weight, I honestly do not know, but it's whatever looks fat on a 5'7" girl. My love calls it "curvy." I am Caucasian, as pale as I could possibly get. I have green eyes. My hair is over 26 inches long, dirty-blonde in colour, and somewhat wavy. I don't intend to cut it anytime soon.

I am relatively healthy. I am overweight, but it does not affect my general health in any great way. I am active and enjoy going for long walks and playing Dance Dance Revolution. I do not smoke, drink, or do any street drugs.

Fashion. Yeah, I don't have any. I like to be comfortable. I really don't care what I wear, as long as it covers my skin and keeps me warm. I enjoy designing outlandish costumes though.

I consider myself relatively intelligent. I love to learn and enjoy challenging my mind. The dictionary is my friend; my encyclopedia collection is great for group orgies. Yeah, I'm a nerd.

I was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder quite awhile ago. I've missed a lot of school over it and have had many struggles, but I also have a lot of support. Since being diagnosed, I have taken Wellbutrin, Rispiridol, and Valium. I am currently taking Valium and hoping it will work. I have yet to see any effects of the medication.

My short-term goal right now is to pass as many grade 10 courses as I can. It'll be hard, but at this point in time, I still have a chance, and I'm going to take it. My long-term goals include visiting Quebec, travelling around Europe, becoming a marine biologist, donating large amounts of money to certain charitable organizations, publishing a couple novels, and getting sterilized, hopefully by a qualified doctor.

I am very interested in politics. I even considered eventually working in politics, but to get anywhere you need money, children, and connections. I doubt I'll have any. I am a Liberal, and almost always lean towards the left side with issues. I'm a feminist. No, I'm not a lesbian.

I support, in the most basic of terms, gay rights, same-sex marriage, religious diversity, abortion, legalized marijuana, comprehensive sexual education, easy-access birth control and sterilization, medical animal testing, meat and animal product consumption, evolution, and voluntary human extinction.

I'm a big advocate of reproductive rights. Yes, I have a uterus, and anything that remains in there without my consent is trespassing and will be promptly removed. Yes, I'm Pro-Choice. Bring on the bombs, Pro-Lifers. I will avoid pregnancy at all costs. I plan to use a combined method of the IUD and the male condom, though much trial and error may be needed to find out which methods are right for me. I plan to get sterilized via Essure as soon as I can find a doctor who will perform the procedure, and I am able to pay for it.

I am a member of VHEMT, the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement. I know what you're thinking, I'm some enviromentalist, tree-hugging hippie nutcase. You are correct, my friend. With the massive overpopulation we are experiencing, we are destroying both the planet and ourselves. Other animals use this planet, you know, and boy are they PISSED. Still think I'm crazy? Well, open your mind before your legs, okay?

Obviously, I'm childfree. I don't like children, I don't want children, I never intend to have children. I'm not going to go around snapping their necks in half, but I really could do without them. They're annoying little blobs of fat who puke and cry and want want want but are never grateful. Like we need another of ME going around!


So, religion. I don't have one, really. I more or less follow the teachings of Buddha, but reincarnation and Nirvana all sound like a load of bull to me. I would consider myself an Atheist. I don't believe in any Christian God or Jewish God or Islamic God or anything. Science, reason, and logic are my Gods, plain and simple.

So, if I haven't offended you and you're still reading this, power to you! I enjoy writing, and would like to publish some novels some day. My genres range from fantasy to adventure to realistic to romance to, well, anything, really. I love exploring my many options for writing. A couple projects I've been working on include "Freiaa von Donoghan," "L'amour Interdite," "Lucia the Ever-Living," "Fleet 33," "My Fading Sentinel," and "Trigger Happy." Needless to say, I'm nowhere near finishing any of this stuff. I take on way too much at once.

I enjoy art, though my interest has fluctuated. While I used to do tons of art on paper with a pencil, I primarily do pixel dolls now in MS Paint. I've been doing so for about three or four years now, and I'm generally happy with my work.

I like tons of different music. Celtic, orchestral, pop, rock, soft rock, classical, lots of stuff. I'm currently obsessed with Queen, KISS, and Eurythmics. I'm stuck in the past.

I love Disney movies. Shut up, they're awesome. My favourites are Pocahontas, Mulan, Lion King, and Aladdin. I much more prefer the movies from the 90's than the ones from today. Besides Disney movies, I also like watching Titanic and The Lost Boys.

I love playing video games. I own a PS2, a Gamecube, a SNES, an N64, and a Gameboy Colour. My favourite games are Xenosaga, Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy IX, and Final Fantasy IV. I'm a big fan of the Mario Party series as well. The only MMORPG I play right now is World of Warcraft. I have a level 55 gnome warrior, but I've currently turned my attention to an RP server and have started anew.

And that's me, basically.
