Well, hi there. Let's get this party started. I feel a bit obligated to talk all about me-- partially because this is kelseykeefe.net and my name is in the domain, but also because there might be some minuscule chance that we haven't already met. Oh, and also because I am a terrible narcissist, but I try to keep that under wraps.

So! I'm Kelsey. My mom calls me Kelsey Keefe, generally everyone does the full name thing. I don't think people can resist the alliteration. So tempting, so tempting.

I have a very general idea as to what I want to blog about- I'm not a writer, I generally write as I speak and that, in turn, involves a lot of word vomit. I think I registered kelseykeefe.blogspot in 2009-- I'm always registering for things, letting them incubate-- the idea of blogging is super appealing but I would hate to be one of those people who blogs a few times in quick succession, then slowly stops off-- eventually apologizing for never updating... uuugh. I'd be so sad, so sad.

I really like reading blogs though, it is my favourite hobby. So I thought I'd join in. #loveme.

I'm graduating college in December and think I might be inheriting a lot of spare time in addition to the crippling debt, so I might as well pick up a constructive hobby. I initially concentrated in Art History but added on Crafts/Weaving after I realized I had taken it four times... I did an intensive research project in Fall 2010 on Central Asian Ikat (Uzbek), it was historically based and at the end of it I just wanted to scoop out my eyes with some sort of rusted gardening tool. It occurred to me then that a career in museum studies was not up my alley.

1. I am horribly loud. Seriously, cannot control the volume of my own voice, VERY EXCITED TO MEET YOU HELLO I AM FRIENDLY.
2. I fell asleep in Harvard's Art Library every single week.
3. I am clumsy and break things. All of the things. I don't even have nice things anymore because every time I have something nice my heart swells with excitement and I say, "wow, look at this nice thing... I am gonna take such good care of it.." and then I ruin it. I am like a toddler who hasn't learned to "gentle pet" the kitty yet and squeezes its little head off.
