The Story of My Life

I saw the tunnel of light on March the second, 1992. The name they stamped on my birth certificate is Alissa Janna Cunningham. If you were wondering, I was named off of the Price is Right. My mom was in the hospital for eleven days until I finally decided I was ready to be a part of the world. Needless to say I was a bit stubborn and not much has changed in my eighteen years. I do not like being bossed around, I like to be the one doing the bossing. I think the reason for that is because I have three brothers. They are twenty-four, twelve, and fifteen. My oldest brother has a three year old son and another one on the way. I am very family oriented and would do anything I possibly could for them. On a typical day you will find me hunting, fishing, playing sports, hanging out with my family or working. Had to save the best for last! Actually, I can not stand my job so I can not wait until I get out of school so I can start my real job. My goal in life has always been to help people in some way or another, that is why I chose to be a nurse. I do not want to just have the broad term as an RN, I want to specialize in labor and delivery. This past May, I job shadowed at Barnes Hospital and it was amazing! During the process of job shadowing, I was able to assist three mothers by delivering their babies. Most people would be completely disgusted by this but it was completely fascinating to me.
