why I am at WSU

I chose Wright State University because I want to major in nursing. Wright State has a great nursing school. Also Wright State is close to home. I am really close to my family and I was scared to leave home. Going to Wright State I get to live at home still. Saving money is a big deal in my family and since I get to live at home I am saving a bunch of money. My sister is also a student at WSU so it makes it much easier for me to adapt to a new school while having my sister there. I have many jobs that I do during the school year such as coaching cheerleading, working at the community center, and baby-sitting and I would not be able to do these things if I did not go to a college where I could live at home. So far I am really enjoying myself at Wright State and commuting is working out and I am adapting to the change very well.

Forever Young

The well known song Forever Young produced by hip-hop artist Jay-z is a memorable song for me. Forever young is memorable because my whole senior year our quote was "Forever Young." My senior class was extremely close and always got along. Everyone was devastated to go off to college and leave each other and high school. We all wanted to stay "Forever Young."This song definitely brings back memories, because during my high school graduation while we processed out we walked out to Forever Young. Every time I hear the song on my ipod, a random Cd in my car, or the radio it makes me sad and want to cry. This song will always remind me of my senior year and bring back many great memories.

Cheerleading

I have been a cheerleader all my life. But now since i have begun college i have had to stop cheerleading. This is because i can not tumble and wright state requires tumbling and stunting for the cheer squad. I love to dance and cheer, so i was very upset when i was finished with my last season. I decided since i could not cheer at wright state that that was not going to stop me. So I am now helping out the Jv cheer squad at my high school. I get to make up their cheer and chant. I also get to make up their dance which I love doing and put their music together. Every Tuesday and Thursday I go to my high school and at 3:15 for practice which ends at 5:00. While at practice I teach them the dance i made up and also the cheer and chant. I also help them with chants that they do wrong and I perfect everything they do. I condition and do jumps and kicks with them. Every Saturday I go to their football games at 10:00 whether they are home or away. I really enjoy coaching the Jv cheer squad. I have been told that they all look up to me and are very happy that I am their coach and make up their dances, chants, and cheers and when I heard that it made my day!
