So I decided to redo this again. Mostly because I could. Here goes: Hi, I'm Jenny or Jen or Jennifer or Lariren. Take your pick, I answer to all of them. I'm 21 and a senior in college(when did that happen?) and have a tendency to leave fanfiction alone until I have finals coming up. Then I tend to stay on this site for hours. Because, come on, fanfiction is so much better than studying. Even though I've been called Hermione with all the things that implies. Anyway I'm a history and adolescent education major with an English literature minor. Its a long thing that means I have to go to grad school to do anything with my life. Thats mostly me. Since going to college, however, I've changed my life ambition from "high school history teacher" to "college professor who is an expert in English history and focuses on early modern England(yay Tudors!)". This was actually after having about three professors tell me "you know, have you ever considered becoming a professor". And why early modern England? I've always been fasinated by it. When we had to write a research paper in 7th grade I picked Elizabeth I and focused on her relationship with Mary, Queen of Scots. Yes, welcome to my nerddom. Do I also watch The Tudors? Yes, and get a little made fun of because of it. Do I also know every historical inaccuracy in it? Probably, though I'm not sure about the costumes(but I have an article I should read on them), but I also get the little things in there for those who know the time period.
