Iowa Hawkeyes

huge Cubs fan because both of my parents were. My favorite player is Addison Russell. I also love hockey because of my parents. My favorite team is the Blackhawks and my favorite player is Patrick Kane. I also became a huge Packers fan, my favorite player is either Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix on defense or Randall Cobb on offense. I am also an Iowa Hawkeye fan and follow their football. When I watch lacrosse I like to cheer for the North Carolina Tar Heels. I am very into technology and love to use it. My family owns five computers, six TV's, eight gaming consoles, seven phones, two kindles, an iPad and two iPods. You could say we love technology. When I'm older I would like to become a pro athlete, although because that is very unlikely to happen I would become a lawyer or doctor because they make good money. Another job that probably would not happen is to be a NHL gm as I love making my own teams. If that doesn't work then I could work at the Dubuque Medline because they do so many fun things at the job. In conclusion I very much love sports as they are kind of my life, my favorite teams being hockey(Blackhawks), lacrosse(UNC), football(Packers and Hawkeyes) and baseball(Cubs). I love technology and not only am I very good with but I own a lot of it. I love to hang out with my friends and play or just talk sports. I like to read and make up stories sometimes just for fun. I am excited for this year at ERMS and excited to come to this…

wrong and went straight to the floor. In that moment we knew we just won our bracket. We were all screaming while jumping up and down. Some of us girls actually started to cry we were so happy. After we went through the line to shake the other team’s hands, we screamed a little bit more. Once we all calmed down for a little bit, we had to take a few pictures. When we got done taking the pictures we went to our ‘camp’ and started to take all of our gear off. When we piled into the van to head…

I went on a job shadow with Sergeant Chuck Robinson of th Kossuth County Sheriffs Office. Chuck is the nighttime supervisor, which means he only works nights and is there to mostly help the other cops, if need be. The entire job shadow was a last minute ordeal as my original job shadow fell through because there was business and personal issues at Elbert Chevrolet that kept me from shadowing there and watching. But continued to make this shadow a valuable experience. As I stated above I did my…

able to conquer it. Another thing that I gained from the upperclassman interview is that agricultural business has great opportunities. I just have to make the best of my experience at Iowa State to full get what I need. Taking the academic policies and procedures, has made me aware of the many academic rules Iowa State has. I have learned how to search for them on the Iowa State website, and find an answer to almost any academic question I have. The academic policies quiz has definitely…

also address the problems of partnering with colleges and universities while being in a rural setting. Last I will address the idea of sharing personal histories helping student connect to each other through their similarities and differences. This week’s topic of community connections has been a difficult one for me. Growing up I never had roots to one place. I moved all over the state of Iowa never living anywhere more than five years, and never in an ‘urban’ area. As a teaching professional…

something that would be necessarily worth it to me. I would take being close to my family over warm weather any day. I would be ecstatic to be able to go to california, but I don’t think i 'll be going too far. Davenport, Iowa is far enough as it is. At this point it’s about time to choose whether to go to California, or stay closer to home and go to Iowa for my secondary school. California would be nice considering that there are many attractions, also everything what the school has to offer.…

My journey first began when I decided to attend The University of Iowa in the fall of 2013 after graduating from Urbandale High School. I attended Iowa for 2 years and then when it came time to choose where I would apply to nursing school at I was stuck between wanting to continue on at Iowa’s College of Nursing, pending on my acceptance, but also needing a change in my life. I decided to choose change and Mercy College of Health Sciences presented an opportunity for just that. There is a…
