Just a little bit of method behind the madness...

I am a nineteen-year-old college student (read slave) at the College of William & Mary. Some of my obsessions include history, Jane Austen, The Lord of the Rings, period films like Elizabeth and Master and Commander, Harry Potter, and Moulin Rouge. I am a confirmed anglophile and history buff, and hope to study History and English for my major(s?). For my complete buying history, plus some of my opinionated reviews, visit my Amazon.com page.

Random information:

• My favourite word is colloquial.
  
• I worship E.M. Forster (god of prose) and T.S. Eliot (god of poetry).
  
• I love learning about and using correct grammar (that doesn't mean I'm always right, but I like to be!).
  
• The first CD I ever bought was the soundtrack to Baz Luhrman's Romeo + Juliet.
  
• I am an obsessed Éowyn/Faramir shipper (shipper means I support their relationship).
  
• I founded the Jane Austen Club at my high school.
  
• My real name is Margaret, which means pearl.
  
• When I doodle, I often construct royal family trees.
  
• My biggest fear is sea monsters.

• My favourite season is fall and my favourite holiday is Halloween.
  
• The first book I ever read was Hop on Pop by Dr. Seuss.
  
• I am the cashier (box office girl) at a Regal Cinema.
  
• When I was young I used to draw maps of my yard and give places names from the Narnia and Redwall series.
  
• My mom knit me my very own Gryffindor scarf. Jealous?
  
• I've dyed my hair blonde and dark brown. The truth is somewhere in between.
  
• I read three books at least once every year: Pride & Prejudice, A Tale of Two Cities and A Room with a View
  
• When I was eight years old I broke my left arm while trying to skate on some ice in our yard in dress shoes.
  
• I have been learning and speaking French for 4 and 1/2 years and I was the president of the French Honour Society at my school.
