Kathryn's Story
Life
After high school I went to Florida State for 2 years. I was there during the National Championship in '99. At FSU I saw Megan Ayers, Catherine Evanson, and Malissa Romero. I had a great time while I was there! I lived in Smith Hall for a year.
The summer of 2000 I went to Spain to study abroad. I wanted to speak fluent Spanish. I can speak the basics, but not fluently. I think you'd have to live in a country for 6 months to pick it up. I only went there for 6 weeks. I visited Madrid, Valencia, Pamplona, Ibiza, Barcelona, and Granada. Barcelona was my favorite! I got to see the running of the bulls, a bull fight, La Alahambra in Granada (one of the seven wonders of the world), and
partied in Ibiza and Amsterdamn.
In 2000, I transfered to the University of Central Florida because I missed my twin so much, Megan. I finished up my Management Information Systems degree there with a 3.4 GPA. Not too shabby for the hardest Business Major. I was President of MISA, and a member in Delta Sigma Pi, a co-ed business fraternity.
After I graduated, the IT market looked bleak. I interned at Oracle Corporation for 4 months, and turned down a Lockheed Martin Intenship for my House of Blues one (what was I thinking!!!) Well, I didn't know who Lockheed Martin was till after I'd been in Orlando for a year. I took a job at Florida Hospital Altamonte working in the ER as a Registration Representative. It was then I decided to go back to school for nursing.
I've been taking pre reqs at Valencia Community College and working. I took Microbiology, Psychology, Sociology, Anatomy and Psyology I. I'm taking A&P II and Intro Chemistry this semester. I will find out if I get into UCF's Accelerated RN program in March. Wish me luck, if I don't get in, I'm going to be a Science teacher and do Real Estate in the Summers.
I've been with my boyfriend Thomas Cotton for 10 months. We are living together. He has a 7 year old daughter Summer. Who knows what the future will hold for us. I love him very much.
I think about my friends and acquantes from SHS often. I hope everyone is still doing good in this bleak economy. I want to know where everyone lives & what everyone is doing with their lives. Who has kids, who is married, etc. Talk to you all soon!
College
Went to FSU, while attending Manatee in the Summer, and Tallahasse Community College (beautiful school!). Transferred to UCF, graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Management Information Systems. Now going to Valencia Community College to take my pre req's for the Nursing program at UCF. I use all my resources, but I have one question. Will I ever get o...Expand for more
