All About Me

Hey my name is Amina Melendez-Mayfield. I am from the suburbs of Gurnee Illinois, most people know it by being the place where the amusement park Six Flags is, which is about six hours and thirty minutes away from here. This is my first year of attending college at Northern Michigan University. The reason behind me coming all this way to attend NMU is simply because of their nursing program. My intended major is nursing but I’m still stuck between becoming a Physician Assistant or a Radiologist. Hopefully soon I can begin job shadowing so I can finalize my decision on my major .I will also be minoring in business. Clearly business really has nothing to do with the medical field but the reason behind me choosing to minor in business is because I plan on opening a bakery with my grandma’s recipes in my home town. Her pastry are honestly life, hopefully she sends some soon and I’ll for sure share with you all .But my dream working environment is a children’s hospital. In my home town I’ve already completed Medical Assistant courses and Certified Nursing Assisting program. The only thing is that I didn’t get my CNA certificated because I refused to change elderly diapers but I am certified in CPR so if anyone decides to have a Mild Cardio Infarction (heart attack) or possibly an Airway Obstruction (choke on something) I can save your life …. Well maybe, just try not to do either of those things though lol. My free time usually consist of watching t.v , listening to music ,  golfing , playing games , such as card games or board games , so if anyone wants to play I’ll always be up for it , and making up raps that usually never make sense . I have a mild obsession with elephants and Bob Marley so my blog just might consist of interesting facts about them and the different kinds of elephants out there and facts about Bobby. I am looking forward to seeing what my first year of college brings and meeting new people and hope everything goes well this year .
