Well, for an introductory post, I suppose I ought to explain a little about me before I just dive right into posting.
Summary of how I got to be where I am: Grace. 
I am a girl, I'm 21 years old, currently a philosophy and theology double major.
I was baptized, confirmed, etc. into the Catholic Church as a child by rarely practicing Catholic parents. I grew up not knowing the slightest about God, and, though no one usually ever believes me, I did not know that Jesus was the Son of God until I actually began looking into Christianity (... I just thought he was some cool dude they always talked about at "church"--but again, I hardly ever even paid the slightest attention to what was going either).
In high school, I began going to church with a few Christian friends of mine, hoping to find a place in which I belonged. But my Catholic roots continued to plague me. The summer before my junior year of high school I set about to disprove Catholicism by reading any and all anti-Catholic websites, Catholic sites themselves, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and two Bibles: a Protestant one, and a Catholic one.
By the end of the summer I was asking my mom to take me Mass and telling my friends I was Catholic (even though I still did not understand much about the faith). My entire junior year of HS was spent trying to argue faith amongst my friends who were appalled at my Catholic decision. The summer before my senior year of high school I couldn't put it off any longer... I wanted to see God, to experience God, and to finally belong somewhere. I reconciled to the Catholic Church through a very long Sacramental Confession with my parish priest on July 1, 2002 when I was 17 years old. I've since made many new friends in my attempt to discover God who have been very helpful along the way. And as I look back now on things I can see the way in which God was slowly working in my life and in my relationships to draw me ever closer to Him.
God rocks.
