Hello World: A Little Taste of Kim





Hello world, or rather, to anyone who wishes to know a bit more about myself,
Kim Knox.
To start with the basics, I am eighteen years old and am from Georgetown, Ontario, a small town that many people have not heard about. However, don`t think that this small town girl is a cow hugger and quiet, I have my quirks and am very outgoing. I have brown hair and brown eyes and my favourite colour is red. I am a pretty positive and energetic person, and I`m almost always wearing a smile on my face, if not than you will know that I have some sort of major assignment rattling my brain.
Somethings that I enjoy doing are taking part in physical activities such as soccer, rollerblading and skating. As with any teenage girl, I LOVE to shop and over the years I have developed an obsession for shoes. Music is a big part of my life. No matter how I may be feeling ,music is always able to cheer me up. I do not have a favourite genre, however, I really enjoy Michael Buble at the moment (I know, not your typical teen artist). I also enjoy Jack Johnson and Matt Costa.
I have just started my first year of university here at McMaster. September 1st, the day it all started seems so far behind me already, however, I am still always surprised to see my roommate each morning when I wake up. So far this year has been an eventful one. With welcome week, faculty day and the beginning of classes I have been keeping busy and meeting many new people.
I am pursuing history as my major because I enjoy learning about all the historical events that have happened and their significance in shaping the world and how it is today. My favourite class so far this semester is Classics, but perhaps by the end of semester I may change my mind. I have never taken a communications course before and I am looking forward to learning what exactly communications is about and the skills I`ll develop as the term goes on.
With a whole year ahead of me and many assignments, essays and exams to go, I admit that I am nervous. My university experience, although challenging so far, will be one that I am sure I`ll look back on and remember as some of the best years of my life.
Right now though, I`m just taking it one day at a time.
