A little bit about me

I am 18 years old, I’m a senior at Snider High School. My school days are half days, I go into school around 8am and get out around 10am. Anything after 10 would be greatly appreciated. I love kids as well as creating a bond with them. I have at least 10 cousins under the age of 12 that I have strong bonds with. My plan when I get out of school is to proceed my career choice of becoming an RN ( Registered Nurse) at IU ( Indiana University). My second option of a career is to become a pediatric nurse.
