Deanna's Story

Life In 1997 I went back to school and on May 4, 2001 I graduated from FAU with a BS in Exercise Science and Health Promotion. In August, 2004 I finished Nursing school at Broward Community College. I finally found and married my prince (Bryan) on April 13,2002 and we live in East Hollywood. Life is good! School If only I had known how easy life was! Since I was convinced I would be an Artist for the rest of my life, I did not pay much attention to science and math, something I would later regret. I really enjoyed the time I spent in art and drama classes, my friendships with Tevis Jones and Tom Smith, the silly skits we did for prom. My big, black pick-up truck that I used to drive over curbs and sidewalks at school was stolen in 1987 from the Macy's parking lot! College After high school I entered Broward Community college and experienced total culture shock! Here were teachers who did not care if I showed up late or not at all! I managed to pull out some A's and B's in English and Art classes, but Algebra was my bitter enemy... After three half-hearted semesters I dropped out to embark on a 12 year quest for my "niche" in life. During that time I studied photography at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale and held various jobs in photo labs and customer service centers. In 1997 I had had enough of dead-end jobs and decided to return to college. I star...Expand for more
ted with Pre-Algebra and worked my way through to College Algebra and even Statistics! Determined not to give up this time, I graduated from Florida Atlantic University on May 4, 2001 with a BS in Exercise Physiology and Health Promotion. Although a Master's degree would be the next route for most people, I have decided to further my career in BCC's nursing program. I began in January 2003 and I expect to graduate with an Associate's degree in August 2004. I think I will make a good nurse because I love to tell people what to do! On another funny note, I have now been a BCC student for eighteen years! Workplace I am working as a registered nurse at a busy Emergency Department at North Broward Medical Center. I have seen a lot, but not EVERYTHING! You wouldn't believe what some people present in the ER. Based on my observations the best advice I can give is to motorcycle enthusiasts: WEAR YOUR HELMET!!! You may survive the wreck, but your brain will never be the same! Head injuries wear out the relatives of survivors... UPDATE!!! In 2007 I left the ER for a less chaotic job in home health care. I am still a nurse, but now I have a regular week-day job. My official title is Clinical Informatics Specialist, I am in charge of the electronic information that goes into our software system. It's all got to be accurate for Medicare and insurance reimbursement.
