Social Networking

I think everyone in the world at this point is always using social networking websites, for example Facebook and/or Twitter. When something happens in anyones life or around their own life everyone in society seems to always put it on one of the social networking devices instead of telling someone with a phone call.

I use Facebook myself and always use to be on it when it first had been established, now I go on about two times a week and normally only check when my friends and family have been up to and then maybe update my status sometimes.

My Career Choice

Ever since I was little I have had a love for animals, I always loved taking care of them and making sure they are healthy.  I grew up with two dogs which were medium sized, one named Mayo and the other named Diablo meaning devil because he would always get into trouble, then one cat named Flosi  and one hamster named Nanook. I would always exercise all of them and make sure they all got their breakfast and supper.

I made my choice of going into the Vet tech program when I got into my freshman year of high school all I had to then think about is what college to attend to.  I looked through multiple colleges and then chose Rochester community and Technical College to attend because it is right in Rochester and then I can continue with the job that I had.

I would like to then further my education after getting my degree for Vet tech into a full veterinarian. This would be a total of eight or more years to complete but I know that I would have the strive to accomplish it. I can’t wait until I graduate because then I will be doing something every day that I love doing.

My Great Grandma Flo

My Great Grandma Flo is 99 years old and is in a nursing home now because of breaking her hip falling down in her home.  I always remember going over to her house when I was little going over to her home and I was step in and immediately smell chocolate chip cookies that would just melt in my mouth as soon as I took a bite. When I first step into her home I would always notice a wooden owl clock on her wall that would always go off to the hour and make a “who who” sound. Her going into the nursing home made me really sad the day that I found out, I went in there right away and noticed the smell of the nursing home of everything being sterile and clean.

We would always go for a walk when I would be in town. The paths that we took would amaze me with the views of the lake Pepin with all the boats the size of buildings on it. The sidewalks would have old cracks in them indicating how long that path way had been there. The sun would shine down onto the lake and just shimmer across it, it was such an amazing sight.

My uncle managed a restraunt that was called The Port Of Call, we would end our day there with a slushie for myself and then a glass of wine for her. Everyone there would welcome us when we walked in saying hi and sometimes even giving hugs, it put the biggest smile on my face.
