  Winter Break is almost here at South Alabama, and I couldn't be more excited! I cannot wait to finally be done with finals and head home to see my family for the holidays. I am also going to meet up with some of my friends from high school which will be super fun since I don't get to see them as often as I would like. Most importantly, though, I will be relaxing over this winter break. Finals week is always a little rough, and having some down time with nothing school-related to worry about is absolutely amazing. I hope you all enjoy your winter break and get to relax while spending the holiday season with people you love. 

Hello to all of you future jags! Today I want to tell you 5 things about my Nursing major here at South. 1) The nursing community here at South is so welcoming and uplifting. 2) There are so many great opportunities to make new friends. Because nursing is such a big program here at South, there are plenty of people to meet and become friends with! 3) The professors are extremely encouraging and make you feel like any goal you have is possible. 4) South uses amazing technology while conducting hands-on learning, helping students to better grasp the materiel and make sure they properly know how to do procedures the correct and most efficient way. 5) There are so many great job opportunities after graduating the nursing program and such a broad spectrum of things you can do within the nursing field which totally makes all the hard work worth it!
