Introduction to a Soon-to-be Graduate

My name is Jennifer Ligon. I am a senior and will be graduating in May with my degree in Psychology. I love my major because I get to learn more about people. I think it is really interesting to learn why people act certain ways. My favorite class that I took last semester was Research Methods II. It is a difficult class but I loved the challenge. After graduation, I will hopefully be attended nursing school in June at OCCC for my Associate's degree in nursing and then finish my Bachelor's degree in nursing online. Eventually, I would like to go back to school to become a Nurse Practitioner. That is my end career goal. I am most pleased to know that I made it through the fall semester even though I took 22 hours! I didn't get to do much over break because I took 6 hours but I did go skiing for the first time! For my last semester, I wanted to be able to enjoy my time a little more so I decided to double up the last few semesters in order to lighten my load. One of my favorite movies is The Notebook (I know, sappy). I don't really have a favorite kind of music; I love all genres of music. I love all kinds of food especially pasta and dessert (It's a problem). I played softball for 15 years growing up so I still like to play softball for fun sometimes. When I am not working on school, I like to spend most of my time with my wonderful boyfriend. We have been together for over 4 years now and he has definitely helped me making it through college without losing my mind. I also enjoy spending time with my friends and family either watching movies or just cruisin' around town.
