That smartass everyone loves--

Hello everyone, the name's Dutch. I should probably start where the comes from shouldn't I? Well, I am four nationalities: German, Irish, Polish, and finally Dutch. On that side, there is royalty down the line, which I think is really interesting. So, I use Dutch as a nickname because...I really don't have a reason do I? I'm a high school student located in the general-Chicago area.

Something very important to know about me is that I am a total nerd. Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Star Trek, Assassin's Creed, Pokemon, and just about anythign else you can think of, I'm into it. If you are a fan of any of these, I can talk for endless hours about them, so watch out. I am a fangirl of just about everything. The earliest is Harry Potter (I'm a Hufflepuff, if you were wondeirng.) because my dad read them to me when I was six and the latest is Assassin's Creed because I found the games are awesome with interesting historical locations.

Another thing, I love history. Especially the Revolutionary Era, Chinese history, and Renissance Italy are my favorite topics. I was surprised this year when I fell in love with history and I think I have to thank my troll of a teacher. Mr. K is the best, especially when he spends over ten minutes explaining the kangaroo soldiers of Australia only to go 'TROLOLOLO. I like saying nonsense things to see what teenagers will believe.' He does this at least twice a week.

I am also a swimmer. I am dedicated to my sport and I can spend over twelve hours at week in the pool during the height of my varsity season. It consumes my life and is frustrating because I have knee problems and I am constantly in pain but I am addicted and can't quit. xD

Finally, I've been a Warriors fan since I was eleven. I started reading the books because they were sitting on the shelves of my library. I am also guilty of still reading the books despite the monotony of the current series. I'm not a fan of the fact that Firestar and some of the older characters are still alive. Seriously, they are no longer needed. We are focusing on the new generation and ThunderClan needs a new leader. Gawd. >C My favorite characters are probably Tigerstar and Cinderpelt from the original series, Feathertail and Hawkfrost from TNP, Lionblaze and evil!Hollyleaf from POT, and finally Tigerheart and Ivypaw from OOTS. I have a soft spot for villains.

I think we might get along,you and I. I love history as well, and I find it fascinating. You never know when a little history can come in handy if you're planning on possibly becoming a lawyer one day. Anyway, you sound like you have an awesome heritage. My grandpa was Irish, and most of my family on my mom's side who has light hair often find it darken to a red color as they get older (like me).

Villains are win. I can't imagine a story without an evil character.
