In high school I took emergency preparedness class and an EMT class through WS and did ride alongs with the EMS here in my county. Ever since the rides that's all I want to do. Helping people in every way I can is all I want to do, I've been a caring person since I was a kid.

I started college thinking I wanted to teach without a doubt. Things have kinda changed. I am still getting my teaching degree, but there is a possibility I won't be using it. I have become very interested in doing Young Life staff. Luckily, they just require a degree. It doesn't matter what you major in. I also think I will be adding on ESL after I graduate from MTSU.

I have always wanted to be in the medical field however I was not sure what area was most interesting to me. After shadowing in multiple areas and speaking to people about different professions, I decided radiology was the best area for me. I have shadowed in the radiology department at three different hospitals and I loved the atmosphere and I think I have the qualities needed to do well in the job.

I am actually a couple weeks away from completely my career at Walters State.  My current degree is General Studies, but I have recently decided that upon transferring to ETSU, I will declare my major as Business Administration.  This is the best fit for me because I love leadership positions.  I have worked as a bookkeeper for a couple years, so I am very experienced with money-management and data-entry.  Therefore, if I had it to do over again, I would have taken the Business Administration Pathway route.

I would like to finish my two years and transfer over to UT then receive a business degree in marketing, and become a pharmaceutical sales rep. The reason for this decision is i love to travel and helping people with whatever their needs must be sound like a great job for me.

# data[].attributes.body
First off, this is what I actually did. Furthermore, even though I am interested in game design and similar fields, I am not entirely sure what I want to do. This way I at least have most general classes finished to transfer to ETSU.

reason i chose business management is too allow myself to build my own opportunities and my own success. attempt it anyway. theirs nothing else better than being able to run your own business, be able to supervise a big company, or even buy in on a business/ company. the best thing about running your own business or supervising a big plant job, perhaps (bush's Beans) , you will be able too call the shots unlike the people that will be a regular ole worker. ill have more stability than a regular ole worker, because ill have a higher education along with a higher IQ and that is what a big company looks for.

I chose this degree because it is something I have been passionate about for a long time. I have changed my mind countless times on what I wanted to pursue in life and I have always fallen back on Animal Science. When I started this semester I was able to take it one step further and decided that I wanted to work with large animals, specializing in Equine. I grew up on a small farm and had horses so I feel this is the best fit for me with my experience. It will take a long time to get there, but I truly feel that I will do great in this field.

It was really tough deciding what career path i was going to follow. When i was in high school i took all the Cosmetology classes thinking that was what i wanted to do after i graduated. However, graduation came and then i wasn't really sure Cosmetology was what i actually wanted to do and then I thought about being a nurse. I told myself why not, it has always grabbed my attention watching nurses do their job. I think my personality will suite being a nurse, i like people being around people and seeing and learning new things, and helping others. So here i am now at Walters State following that career path.

This first semester of taking the general studies has made me want to learn more about the body more than ever. I believe that me becoming a nurse will be a great helpful tool to always allowing people to always have a say in what they have to do to attain staying healthy. Throughout having multiple surgeries and being in the position of having a chronic infection, I was scared of what the future would hold. Now knowing that the outcome was not as terrible as believed, I want to help those who go through the same struggle or worse than what I did.
