About

Kathryn Michele Hettinger is my name, Pictionary is my game.
I currently reside in York, Pennsylvania, but intend on getting out of here and living in California as soon as I can.
I was born January 10, 1992, making me a 19 year old lady, but if I were to chose one word to describe myself, it would be "Musician". Music has been my life since as long as I can remember, and I fully intend on making a living as a musician. It sounds like one of those pathetic dreams of a 15 year old, but, I'm made for it, I know it, since music was a talent I was born with, not taught, and I intend on doing everything in my power to making it as a successful and admired musician.
I play multiple instruments. I am best at drums and guitar, but I also play bass, harmonica, saxophone, piano, ukulele, mandolin, bongos, and congas, all of which, except for the Saxophone, I am self taught at, and I intend on learning many, many more before I kick the bucket. I also sing, but haven't had any lessons, so it's nothing extraordinary.
I love to listen to all kinds of genres of good music, and my absolutely favorite band is, always was, and always will be Sublime. But, some of my other favorites are Bob Marley and The Wailers, The Clash, The Toasters, Bruno Mars, Elvis Presley, Elvis Costello, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Muddy Waters, (Older) Green Day, Pink Floyd, Stevie Ray Vaughn, B.B King, Operation Ivy, Boston, Rage Against The Machine, Frank Sinatra, Bunny Wailer, Tower of Power, Funkadelic, Steve Miller Band, The Flamingos, Michael Jackson, Jerry Lee Lewis, Cyprus Hill, The Roots, and a few more that I can't think of. I pretty much hate all of the mainstream music that is around today, and, as you can see, many of my favorite bands are either not even around today, or aren't heard on the radio, with the exception of Bruno Mars, who I absolutely love and respect as a musician and human.
I'm caring, kind, passionate, understanding, laid back, respectful of people until they show me a reason to be otherwise, and I don't judge. I don't have the same interests as most of the girls, or people my age really, causing me to get along best with guys and mature people, but really, I'll get along with anyone who gets along with me.
I've been called intelligent, I've been called an "old soul" and "too mature for my age", but most of all, I've been called "unique". I say there's no such things.
People say that I have an amazing sense of humor, but I just love to laugh. I have a trait that some people don't have, I can find the humor in almost anything, but also know when things just aren't meant to be laughed at.
I enjoy learning and studying, mostly about The Civil War, World Wars I and II, the Vietnam War, the Wild West, Dinosaurs, everything about all animals, guns (which I also love to shoot), literature, the Universe, and facts about people I admire. But, I REALLY love learning about outlaws and gangs of the Wild West, my favorite being Jesse James.
I am a huge movie buff, and love movies of all kinds, as long as they have good actors, good direction, and a good plot, but, my favorites are Westerns, comedies of all kinds, silent movies of all kinds, and old movies of all kinds (Which I consider to be anywhere from the late 1920s, to the early 1950s.)
I love to read, and have always had the kind of mind for it, if that makes sense to anyone else. With that reading, came a love of writing, and a unique style all my own.
I have many bad habits, but the worst would be my excessive smoking. A pack a day, to be not so exact.
I constantly break laws, as long as it won't hurt anyone, which means I don't drive drunk, or steal from anyone that will be effected by it, among other things such as that.
I hate most cops, though some are very good men and women.
I have an addictive personality, which I get from my Dad and has contributed to my 3 year struggle with a painkiller addiction. Luckily, my fear of death has kept me from overdosing or moving on to Heroin.
I am a "pothead", and have been for 7 years. It hasn't harmed me one bit. If anything, it has helped me open my mind and, at times, stay sane through the large struggles that have popped up at times in my life, none of which I will go into, since everyone has had struggles of their own, all of which are defeating in their own ways. I also love the occasional hit of LSD to refresh my mind and relax my body, but I only do it once a year when I need a break from reality.
And of course, I love to get in my occasional "party mode", as my friends call it, since when I go to a party, I turn into a full blown party animal, but not the obnoxious "girl who can't hold her liquor" kind. More the "out drink all the guys and still dance without falling over" kind. Let me tell you this, I can drink a 40 ounce bottle of Hurricane Malt Liquor before it gets cold, which earned my nickname of Hurricane Hettinger, as I'm called at every party.
I am an animal lover, and own a few animals of my own, including my 2 dogs (And best friends) George and Strummer Joe, my cats Zion and Dapheny, and my rat The Cisco Kid. I love them all very much, and feel that animals are much better than humans, for reasons I'm sure you can understand. My favorite animals are horses, Orca Whales, and dogs.
I love my family. My parents and siblings are my best friends. We get along great, and I have no reason to rebel. Everything I do, they know about, without going into much detail, of course. I know the consequences of my actions, and am smart about the decisions that I make, which is more than I can say about a lot of people my age.
I don't follow any religion, but I am not an Atheist. I guess if you had to label me, I'd be agnostic, because I keep my mind open and learn. Though, right now, I believe that religions such as the Christian religion were made up to scare people into behaving with the threat of going to Hell after death if you disobey any of the ridiculous rules. The Christian religion makes absolutely no sense to me.

Though I probably forgot a few unimportant things, I guess that's it. After reading this, you've learned pretty much all you can about me without actually knowing me. I did the best I could at making it short but still substantial, though it looks like I failed miserably.
I wouldn't be offended if you gave up a quarter of the way through, it was long and quite boring, so, If you want to know anything else, or if I've forgotten anything, don't hesitate to ask.
