"All About Me"

Hello!

My name is Amanda Nelson and I am twenty years old. I am from Windsor, Virginia...and yes I'm from the south...and yes the north and south are very different! I decided to go to Unity College in the lovely state of Maine because I want to help make a difference in the world. I am currently a first semester junior. I plan to major in Wildlife Conservation and Ecology in may 2011. I am currently a Resident Advisor in Cainchette Gold which is an upper-class man residence hall. I also work off campus at Rite-Aid Pharmacy and complete work-study hours with Advisor/professor Aimee Phillippi. I do get really stressed at times but I try and remember that... "If you keep doing what your doing, you'll keep get getting what you've got," and I push on. I have always been inspired by people that care for wildlife and every since I was a little girl I have wanted to have a career in wildlife. I don't know what it is about animals but I have always been more willing to work with animals than people. I'm an extremely open person about my opinion on almost everything...which can be good or bad. Many of my hobbies and interests include playing tennis and Ultimate Frisbee, when its not snowing. I want to learn how to snowboard, fish, hunt, and snowmobile...hopefully before I graduate I can do them all. Also as my way of escape from the world I read, paint paint-by-numbers, and clean. I know that my hobbies are weird things to do to distress but it works for me.

Well...that's me
