My name is Keri Garel, and I'm a member of the class of 2010. (Yeah. I'm new here. Let's hear it for built-in excuses for not knowing what's going on!) I was born in Jamaica, but I moved to the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area in Florida at age seven. (Kellas '10 from England, who lives a floor above me, says this makes me half an international student. I don't agree. Yet.) Notice the aforementioned locations. Jamaica. Florida - and the very tip of it at that. I'm still struggling to understand this concept of it being cold (whaaaaaaat?!); I've never even
seen snow, so it's a sure bet that I'll be the girl running around in the courtyard screaming at the first sign of flakes. Yes, I'll do it even if there are only maybe three and a half of them and they melt before they even reach the ground. It's the principle of the thing.
I live in
Senior Haus, which is awesome. We host
Steer Roast every year. We have a tire swing. Enough said.
I like theater. I do a lot of it, especially behind the scenes. Power tools are my friends. They should be yours, too.
I have a general idea of what I want to do with my life, also known as a double major in Courses 9 (Brain and Cognitive Sciences) and 5 (Chemistry). Then again, a million people come here with a set plan in mind and they end up changing their minds entirely, so who knows? This will give me the necessary background to go into cancer research and become a lab monkey, making me quite possibly the only frosh in course 9 who doesn't want to go to med school.
Everyone else has done one of those "let's give you a random fact or twelve about me" things, and now that it's my turn, I've blanked almost entirely. I do, however, like pie.
