12. WHY?????
 Ever since I was young I played with my dolls and
acted as if I worked in a doctor office and I had to take
care of my patients. Also, I always was captivated by
my Aunt being a nurse. I loved how she interacted
with people. How she was their comfort and emotional
support system. I feel as when I become a nurse it
would not be as if I am coming to work but just doing
something I love instead.
