Introduction to a Future Nurse
My name is Shivani Gandhi and I am a senior psychology major at the University of Oklahoma. The coolest thing about my major is that it can be utilized in pretty much any field out there. A person knowledgeable about psychology can assist anyone and some companies have a special position for people who have studied psychology. I love school and I will try my best to make any class fun and I think of classes as a stepping stone to where I need to be. I try to make them enjoyable by relating them to concepts I will have to face in the future and how these classes will help me get there. My favorite and best class from last semester was Human Sexuality with Professor Dennison because I loved the way he taught the subject. He was funny and made the topics not embarrassing to talk about on a daily basis. I also learned some pretty useful things in the class that will help me in the future. My biggest accomplishments last semester were completing and submitting my application for Nursing a...

ReplyDeleteShivani, I agree that Colorado Springs is a wonderful place. The entire state of Colorado is such a gorgeous place, in all honesty. When I was in grade school my parents and I went on a camping road trip and one of our stops was in Colorado of course. The mountains are just breathtaking and the people are very friendly and down to earth.
ReplyDeleteHi Shivani! The photo you shared of downtown Colorado Springs is absolutely gorgeous! A lot of my friends go to Colorado for skiing or snowboarding every single break but I sadly have never gotten to go. I do hope to be able to go one day though; it seems so fun and there are so many things that you can do there to keep you busy. How often do you go?
