Hello all. My name is Erin, I'm 16, and I live in Germany. I'm American, though, my parents are just in the Air Force.

I'm currently at Yale University, attending a summer program ran by the largest student-run organization in America. I'm having a blast even though it involves 3 hours of "Public Speaking and the Law" class, 3 hours of "Constitutional Law" class, and 2 hours of "Congressional Workshop" -- a unique form of debate, every day. Actually, I just finished my term paper which was written from the angle of a Supreme Court justice, upholding the ruling found in Virginia v. Black.

I guess from reading all of that you can gather that I'm kind of a political dork. During the school year I participate in various Model United Nations, including the largest one in the world.

I like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, falafel, and my baby brother.

Let's be friends.
