Me!!!

My name is Beth Goodsell - I am 19 years old and am currently attending the University of California at Santa Cruz. I am a Language Major here at UCSC, my primary being Spanish and secondary French.  The major also has a large concentration in linguistics which will have me taking everything from phonology to syntax to Modern English Grammar (one of my current classes).

I started this website a couple years ago when I became involved in the anti-war movement. It has stagnated a bit in the last months but I'm confident I can bring it back. The election has definitely revived some interest in blogging.

Here is some info about me:

Social Interests:
Feminism - that means equality between men and women!
Peace Movement
Indigenous Rights Movement
Environmentalism
Universal Equality

Current Involvements:
Shotokan Karate - I'm currently a first level blue belt.
Looking into a number of volunteer activities including mentoring and serving food.

Favorite Books:
Ecotopia & Ecotopia Emerging - Ernest Callenbach
Stupid White Men - Michael Moore
Knight of a Trillion Stars - Dara Joy
The Martian Chronicles - Ray Bradbury

Hobbies:
Hanging out with my boyfriend - Jeremy
Reading - anything interesting...
Cooking yummy meals - ex. Pasta Shells with broccoli and feta cheese in a portobello mushroom sauce.
Learning and applying my knowledge is really important to me, hence the site.
