What better opportunity to introduce myself than in my introduction post? Well, my name is Christine and I'm a sophomore here at the University of Oklahoma. I'm pre-pharmacy and I'm taking this class along with Microbiology and Organic Chemistry II, both with lab. Science classes are, of course, the majority of my classes that I have and will be taking for the remainder of my academic career but I always like to balance the sciences out with another non-science class I know I would enjoy. I came across this class while making my schedule last spring and thought it would be a good fit for me! This leads me into one of my favorite hobbies: writing. I absolutely love writing and if I was doing a four-year degree here it would have definitely been my minor. I've loved reading and writing and how they both give are able to create and display worlds in which people could relate to and get lost in. Aside from becoming a Pharmacist, I aspire to someday write books and maybe even become an author! So, this is one reason I thought this class would be a good fit for me. It gives me the ability and push to write more everyday in order to both try to improve my writing and provide me with an outlet to express myself.

Besides class, I'm the youngest of four and I'm full Nigerian (my parents were both born there, I was born in OKC,OK). I've traveled to Nigeria once when I was younger and it was quite an experience! It was my first ever plane ride and we went through Tennessee and Amsterdam. I loved getting to see more of my extended family and learn more about myself, culturally. Speaking of, the culture there really is beautiful and everyone there seems so close. I really enjoyed the atmosphere. I also got to see part of the Niger river so that was cool too!
My family is also extremely important to me. I wouldn't be where, or who, I am without their unconditional love and support. They're always willing to help me out when I need it and they're definitely my rock. My sister, who's only a year and half older than me, is basically my best friend. I think us being so close in age has really helped us to become as close as we are now. She's always there to laugh and cry with me and I relate to her more than anyone else. She truly has helped to guide me in the right direction and she never fails to give me great advice.

Something else about myself is that I also enjoy watching movies and television shows (my favorite genres are comedy, drama, romance and fantasy). Two of my all time favorite TV shows are The Office (U.S.) and Parks and Recreation. I love these shows because I know I can always count on them to give me a good laugh at any time.
