More about Katie:"I believe in karma. I believe people really are good, I believe the way things are isnt necessarily how they should be, I believe there is something magical about summer, I believe in being friends first, I believe all these set religions are great but not for me, I believe I decide what I believe c:, I believe everything does happen for a reason and intend to find out as many as possible, I believe in other life forms, I believe in instinct, I believe in self discovery and self expression, I believe in 'ghosts' of some form, But most importantly, I believe until proven otherwise.".
