Name, Rank, and Serial Number

just who the heck is this katster person anyway?

katster, in blue and gold So...you want to know something about me. Eeek.

So, lesse, what is there to tell? My name is Katrina A. "Kat" Templeton. I often go by katster on the net, as that's been my online nickname for nearly eight years now. I was born November 21, 1978 in Redding, California, and grew up in the nearby small hamlet of Anderson. I graduated from Anderson Union High School (home of the Cubs!) in 1996.

While I had the chance to leave high school and go straight to the University of Southern California after my junior year, I chose instead to stay in high school the extra year and see what opportunities I would have. I ended up being offered a Chancellor's Scholarship to attend the University of California at Berkeley, and started my undergraduate career there in August 1996.

The four years at Berkeley were among the most demanding of my life, and it was not helped by many problems in my personal life, the biggest one being the diagnosis of bipolar disorder in the fall semester of my sophomore year. However, I managed to graduate in four and a half years (and was in striking distance of doing it in four if I hadn't had a rough senior year). However, I have a diploma from Berkeley which states that I have a BA in History, and the fact I am most proud of is that I managed to graduate with a 3.2 GPA.
