INTROduckTION

Hey everyone. I am Kathleen but you all know me as Mack. For those who don't know Mack comes from my middle name Mackenzie. I'm 21, this is my 2nd year at Huntington but my 4th year of college, I am a junior here credit-wise. 

The random facts
I have 3 younger brothers 19, 17, and 15 and a dog. My main passion is character design and illustration. I enjoy many cartoons but am partial to older cartoons more-so than newer ones which don't deliver as well as some classics. But don't get me wrong, there are newer cartoons I adore like Steven Universe and Gravity Falls. Some older cartoons I favor are Animaniacs and Ren & Stimpy.

I'm a huge fan of the TMNT, if you couldn't already tell. I like robots/androids, aliens, mutants, basically anything that isn't human 'cause humans suck haha but humans can be cool too I guess. Oh I like skeletons though I guess that sort of counts as human. I tend to like things that differ from the norm, weird things, grotesque things, acid-trip-y things, but I also like more "normal-esc" things that are stupidly funny like butts.

The up close and personal
I struggle with a few various mental illnesses like anxiety, dysthymia (which is a less severe but longer lasting form of depression), ADD, and borderline personality disorder. I also struggle with physical issues such as irritable bowel syndrome and a bad back/bad knees.

So if you hear me complaining about stomach/digestive things or my back or knees believe me I have a reason; they're probably hurting so bad or so discomforting that they're distracting me so I feel a need to vocalize my physical ailments. I apologize if this is distracting or upsetting to you it's just my way of coping with the pain and discomfort.

The "hope to see you all in class and stuff but I already know most of you so I'm already going to see you guys around so you probably already know I'm looking forward to seeing you so I shouldn't have to say it but I'm going to anyway because I need a way to end this and there are a few people I don't know so I need to say it to them" ending
Can't wait to see what all of y'all create and stuff. 


Oh and Leeper said "include an image that will give the rest of us a clue about some of the things you’re interested in" so I guess I'll put these two here because I couldn't decide which one to use
