I am Kristine Kruszelnicki, aka throughout cyberspace as “Kruszer”, a name born out of my camp counseling days, and obviously derived from my Polish family name. It used to be that a google search for "Kruszer" would bring up nothing but the many discussion and debate groups I haunt, but alas, in recent years my name has been hijacked here and there. Do not be misled. There is but one true Kruszer and behold, I am she.
I was born on the 3rd day of the 11th month of the year 1978 A.D. Which means, in case you’re bad at math, that I’m officially old. Not that anyone would buy that. I play for a living, and my favourite artists include a singing cucumber. It's been well said that “growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional.”

QUICK OVERVIEW OF KRUSZER
If I had to summarize myself in only a few words I would describe myself as:
- Lover of all that is art and self expression (dance, music & songwriting, writing, poetry, painting/crafting, photography, theatre and dramatic play.
- Humanitarian to the core; constantly seeking to end the suffering and mistreatment of living beings wherever it exists. (Dream job: full-time volunteer...now if I can only I find a way to make it paid the bills...)
- Passionate lover of people, especially little people. My life consists largely of volunteering and advocating on behalf of children (born and unborn), and their moms.
- Childcare provider/ Early Childhood Educator/ mother-at-heart
- “Health nut”/environmentalist/vegetarian (for compassion reasons)/ hippie-style “run- with-the-wind, barefoot-in-the-pesticide-free-grass, with-flowers-in-her-long-flowing-hair” type of girl
- At times the clown/actress/comedian/goofy children’s entertainer type of girl - At other times a “let’s dress up and look like a glamour queen/dazzling princess” kind of girl.
- Avid debater/studier of all that pertains to theology, moral relativism, and moral issues.
- Pro-life Feminist, pro female-preachers.
- Challenger of status quo within every movement or circle I run in. Activist for change and betterment. (I fit in no-one’s “box”, I always create my own).
- Extroverted introvert
- Chatterbox... and unable to restrict a self-description to a mere “few words” :P

THE BEST IS YET TO COME
This site is (always) undergoing renovation. It’s one of my life’s goals to someday have a completed web-site featuring all my articles, opinion papers, pictures etc etc.
In the meantime, feel free to check out my blog: http://kruszer.livejournal.com (you’ll need to contact me with a live journal account name if you want to be able to read anything beyond my public access posts).
When my computer is functioning, I usually live online 24/7, (even if only as an “away message”) I love to chat with anyone with an interesting opinion about something/anything - especially if it’s something we don’t quite agree on. Challenge me! I’ll try to return the favour.
