Hey, future jags! This week, I'm letting you know a little about myself. So, here's 5 facts about me:

 1.) I'm from Louisiana. Only a few hours from home, South is the place for me. I can go home for some of my favorite Louisiana foods, including gumbo, jambalaya, and beignets, and still have fun at school in Mobile. I'm excited to see how a Mobile Mardi Gras will compare to how we "let the good times roll" at home. We'll have to see who the winner is for best Mardi Gras!
2.)  I love Mexican food. Who doesn't??? It is THE BEST. Queso, enchiladas, tacos, burritos, chimichangas...you can't go wrong! You can often find me in a Mexican restaurant having my own little fiesta with friends.
3.) I'm Pre-Medicine. One of my main career goals is to become a physician. I have always had a passion for medicine and helping people, and I'm really excited to start my journey in combining these passions into my career as a doctor. One day, I hope to change people's lives by promoting their health and helping them feel better and stronger.
4.) I'm learning French. One of the coolest things, in my opinion, is the ability to speak multiple languages. I've been learning French since junior high school, and in a year or two, I hope to test my skills and learn some more when I study abroad in France. I am so excited to visit a country with such a rich history and wonderful people and food.
5.) I love exercising. Although I would not consider myself a pro at working out, I do enjoy it! I enjoy CrossFit and going to the gym, especially with a motivating workout buddy. I especially love the variety of workout classes here at South. I can choose to do whatever I like!

What I've Learned Since I've Become a Jag

-

Just this past fall, I joined the Jag family! Since then, I've had learned so much about myself and about what I have studied here at USA. Being a freshman and moving away from home, I learned how to be independent. Throughout the year, I have worked on better managing my time to do all of the fun things South offers while staying on top of my school work. When I had bad days, I learned how to pick myself up and keep going, like all of us jags do. Most of all, I learned that South Alabama's Jaguar Family really is a family. The people that I met here welcomed me, and I have made so many lasting connections and friendships here. South Alabama has definitely become a home for me and has given me so many new friends! I'm so excited to continue to grow as a Jag and learn more with each year that I am here at South. I hope each of you enjoy your time here, and go Jags!

Hey, future Jags! Here are my 5 tips for preparing to come to South Alabama: 1. Register for orientation: As soon as you get accepted to South, sign up for an orientation session that works for you! We have many summer sessions to choose from, and you can register on our website at https://www.southalabama.edu/departments/orientation/ . Attending orientation will help you become more familiar with campus and some new students before officially becoming a Jag in the fall! 2. Sign up for housing: Apply to housing to secure your spot on campus at South Alabama! Living on campus is close to everything and helps you make connections. Once you're admitted, I would recommend signing up for housing at https://www.southalabama.edu/departments/housing/ . There are many options of residence halls to choose from, and we even have a roommate matching system. 3. Hang out with hometown family and friends: If you're moving far away from home, I recommend spending some quality time with your

      It's springtime here in Mobile! As the end of the semester draws near, it always cheers me up to walk outside into some nice, spring weather. It's even better that there are plenty of places to have fun in the sun near South's campus! There are many beaches not too far from and some pretty parks and outdoor spaces near USA.       One of my favorite places is Langan Park. It is super close to campus and is perfect for biking, eno-ing, jogging, picnic-ing, and more! I like to go here with friends to take my mind off of school and stress and to focus on enjoying Mobile's nice weather and outdoor space in the spring.  Even if you have to do some school work, it is an awesome space to get some fresh air and experience springtime while doing so. I think that it is a great place to relax and unwind as spring semester begins to come to a close. Happy Spring!!
