I was born and raised in the state of Alabama. I have moved from city to city ever sice I was six years old. The first city that I lived in was called Slocomb; which is right outside from the Dothan area. Then I moved to Elba, Mobile, Pensacola, and finally Grand Bay. My major interests are reading (when I find time), cooking, keeping up with technology, spending time with my family, and writing.I happen to be attending USA because of when I moved from Pensacola, FL to Grand Bay, AL I had to transfer colleges. Something that might interest you about me is that during my high school career I commuted from Pensacola, FL all the way to Mobile, AL to go W.P. Davidson High School. My mother is the Family and Comsumer Science teacher (formally known as Home Economics), and it made sense to ride with her instead of transferring schools right after Freshman year; I graduated from Davidson on May 19, 2010. My father is the Senior Pastor at First United Methodist Church of Grand Bay since July of 2011. My brother is a Freshman this year at USA and is in the Jaguar Marching Band playing the tuba; he graduated from Davidson on May 24, 2012.I want to enter the field of education because of family members being educators and I adore being around children as well as teaching them manners, life skills, and how to read and write. My passion is playing my flute, piccolo, and alto saxophone; I find them to help me deal with stress along with patience. The thing that I like to do more than others is traveling down to New Orleans and going to the French Quarter to go to Cafe du Monde and ordering cafe au lait with beignets.
Randy Paush on Time Managment
In Dr. Paush's lecture on time management, he explained how we should set our goals, prioritize, and plan our time wisely. He also mentioned that we Americans are focused on doing things right adequately; meaning that we want to meet a need. One of his mentions from earlier in the video was planning, and that planning has to be done on multiple levels. After watching this video, I now know that to manage my time wisely I must set a goal, prioritize, and plan out the day/semester wisely.
