hey everybody...

Greetings to the world with another trickling of words. The New Improved Homepage of Elizabeth Hadley Amadea Nickrenz. I had this all written down somewhere...Cut.

Hi. Welcome to Navel-Gazing Central. Oh, excuse me, I mean my web page. Cut.

Hello, and welcome to All About Me, the infinitesimal square of cyberspace devoted to me talking about myself, because after all one should talk about what one knows, and what are you going to know better than yourself, I mean myself, I mean what am I going to know about...Cut.

Okay. Sorry about that. Hi. I'm Elizabeth. I'm a sophmore at Swarthmore College, and an English major. I am nineteen years old. I have red hair and blue eyes. I wear a lot of black. My favorite authour is Proust, and my favorite color is blue. This is boring. Cut.

Okay, discussion question for the day--what's so great about art? I mean, if someone's a brilliant writer or painter but has extremely poor personal hygiene and no social skills, are they still worth spending time with or do you just buy the Penguin Edition when they become famous? If you have any thoughts on this, please e-mail me.

Is this all there is? Merely doubt and uncertainty?

No, just kidding. I actually have a lot of stuff written, personal stats and life history and stuff, it's just that I wrote it all last year and it's really outdated. (Time moves fast when you're young and silly, donnit?). So I thought I needed a new index page to indicate that I am no longer a freshman, I have a new living space and a new roomate and quite possibly a new voice of some kind, or at least a slightly different one than I used to have. But what stuff should I scavenge off my old site? Well, let's see. For a taste of first-year disorientation click on the appropriate blue stuff. To read some stuff I've written, click on the appropriate blue stuff. To check out what was going on in my head during various points, click the appropriate blue stuff. I think that's really it.

Maybe at some point I'll put up lots of links to other people and other sites... but I don't actually websurf that much except to check out the pages of people I know, and I'm shy about linking to people who actually might read my page i.e. friends of mine, so if you want cool unrelated places to go from here you'll have to find them yourself... I often use Yahoo, if that's any help.

Okay, that's it for the Index Page. I'll put up some more stuff later, now that I'm sort of getting back into this Web Publishing thing. Sooner or later I am going to have a picture or two up here. In the meantime, do drop me a line if you've read this. I'm curious to know.
