introductions..

Hey, I'm Courtney. I'm in my last year at Iowa State University majoring in journalism with a magazine emphasis and English minor. While I'm here, I keep busy with my part-time job on WOI radio announcing market updates and holding the managing editor position at ethos magazine. I try to save my remaining amounts of free time to spend with friends and family. Most of my family is back home in Iowa Falls, Iowa, so I try to make it up there as much as possible. I love watching my nephew grow up and eating dinner with my grandparents. I also enjoy falling asleep on the couch watching Saturday Night Live with my dad.

important stuff..

I'm really pretty easy to figure out, but sometimes I can get complicated. I like a lot of things, dislike a few things, and am always trying new things. It's only fair to give something a chance ... if I don't like it I will never do it again, and if I do it will probably become a new obsession.

The list of things I actually dislike is quite short, so I'll leave that off. I'm pretty easy-going and am usually content with whatever comes my way, so I try to make the most of everything. I'm always open to new ideas and especially love to discover new people and places.

school stuff..

I'm making this page for my English 313 class. Visit our class web site. I am taking this course, Writing for the World Wide Web, from Lee Honeycutt. We are learning how to build this web page using xHTML and cascading style sheets as well as the layout and page design. It's a learning process, but we'll be proud of our pages once we're finished. Other courses I am currently enrolled in are:

As you can see, I have a pretty full schedule lined up. Don't worry though, I work better under pressure.

resumé..

Another thing we're doing for 313 is posting an electronic resumé. This is where you can check out my qualifications!

in conclusion..

You've learned quite a bit about me yet you're just getting started. I thought I'd introduce you to a few of my favorite people! These are the ladies and gentlemen that I choose to surround myself with on a daily or at least frequent basis. They are my family♥ that I got to choose for myself. :) I don't know where I'd be without any of these people; each and every one holds a special place in my heart for their own reason. These are the people I can count on and who can always count on me. Through thick and thin, to the end..
