unschooling teens out there?
Kitty
Hello there! I'm Kitty Allie, aged 15 (16 tomorrow!) unschooler, and
I'm looking for similar minded and aged unschoolers to correspond with.
I'm a native of US (New York state!). I am a very artistic type of
person (opposed to other types), I love to draw, inks, pencil,
watercolour, oil, collage and charcoal are my favorite mediums. I also
love to look at art, contemporary and Renaissance are my favourite
periods, but I love it all! I'm a writer of poetry, plays, and short
stories. I would love to hear from someone who likes to write (though
I'd love to hear from everyone else too!), I like to discuss and share
writings. I also enjoy fashion, following contemporary through it's
crazy stages, and also historical fashion (particularly the 20th
century). I have a growing wardrobe of historical costume, mainly of
the 20s, my favourite decade. I am a very comical person but I enjoy
having a good debate on political, religious, governmental, the media
(better watch out on that subject, you'll get me going ; ), anything!
When I have a chance I get in as much reading as possible, all kinds of
subjects. I love modern American history, short stories, poetry,
realistic-fiction, non fiction, whatever that come along my way that I
have an interest in. On my reading table now is: (along with my
journal) `An American Tragedy' by Dreiser and the `Beak of the Finch'-
that new book on evolution. Very good books I must say! I am also a
very outdoorsy person: skiing, biking, hiking, windsurfing, canoeing,
swimming I do in season (and sometimes out). I'm big on traveling,
though I don't get nearly enough of it. (My most recent love is Paris.
Sigh.) I enjoy theater a lot, though I don't get to perform in it much,
I am wild about seeing it, I prefer it to movies. In my opinion there
are better points and cultural comics made in the theater form. In the
media (general TV and film) it is for a broader range, and are more set
on raking in the cash than making something worth viewing. I live on
music (and laughter), my favorite bands being Guster, Our Lady Peace,
and the Beatles... the list goes on, though I like all different kids
of music including hand drumming and piano (Keith Jarett is great!). If
you have a good sense of humor and anything in common with me- or if
you just want to say hi- write me at nord.sky@.... Love ya
all, Kitty
