Introduction: About Me

Hi, my name is Kristen Ritchie.  I’m twenty two years old and a senior English-writing major at OU.  I’m am from a small town in southern Oklahoma and come from a big Italian family.  I have two sisters (I’m the middle child) and a niece who turns seven next month.  Since I did grow up with her, our relationship is more like sisters and I’m waiting for the day she grows tall enough to be taken to Six Flags.  I love playing video games, which is what I enjoyed most over the break because I find no time for it during the semester.  To be honest, I would rather get more sleep than play games. 

I love television.  Some of my favorite shows are RuPaul’s Drag Race, Taboo, River Monsters, The Golden Girls, Bridezillas and basically any show that involves graphic surgery.  A few kids’ shows that I only grew to love because my niece forced me to watch them a thousand times are Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse and Monster High.  Other than television, I watch YouTube daily.  One of my favorite YouTube personalities is the AngryJoeShow.  I definitely recommend him if you are into video games.  I also love movies.  Some of my favorite movies are the Jurassic Park franchise, Lawrence of Arabia, The Bridge on the River Kwai, and WALL-E

This past winter break was pretty hectic for me.  I went on vacation to Mexico before Christmas and arrived back home on Christmas Eve.  I also went to a few Christmas parties before my trip, which was not a good idea because now I feel like I never got any rest over the break.  On top of being social, my neighbor’s house got robbed while I was home which was pretty scary and my mom got sick on top of all that.  My break was up and down.  Now, I’m just looking forward to Spring Break.


I’m excited to get this semester into gear because I graduate in May.
