How things begin
Today was my last year of school. I was working so hard to finish high school and I finally finish. Now it's off to college, but before college I have to find me a job and I'm working at Tosaka. To earn all the money for college. My parents aren't going to support me. The only person who is always going to support me is my grandmother. I love her to death, she'll help me with anything. She wants to make a differences, she wants me to go to college and have a wonderful future. I got into Appalachian, so i'm majoring in nursing. Nursing is a big deal for me. While going to school and majoring in nursing, I joined in volleyball club. It was a great time for me to be in shaped and get my skill back for volleyball. College is very adversity but I can get through it. All this studying is making it easier and easier for me to learn them better. Time flew by so fast, it was already the exam for my nursing class. For me to get the nursing degree, I need to pass this class. I studied so hard the night before. Today is the big day, the day where I need to pass the exam. I got my degree for nursing and I would like to thank my grandmother for helping and supporting me through out my whole life.
After getting my nursing degree I went straight to a hospital to start my new nursing skill. I love where I work. I work at Catawba Valley Medical Center. Working as an ultrasound is the best job I could have. I just love knowing if these family are going to have a boy or a girl. And I get to experience new things while I'm an ultrasound. I get paid good money. And I also love the people I work with and the patient.
