Heyhey! I’m Emily, and I’ll be a sophomore this fall. I’m a biology and athletic training major not only attending Millersville, but West Chester as well. I am SO excited for the launch of Her Campus Millersville. I am from Lancaster, born and raised, but the complete opposite part from Amber. I grew up right outside the city, and attended an urban high school that had a high rate of students/families living in poverty, as well as high teen pregnancy and drop out rates. However, despite these things, I am so thankful I went there- I was not only cultured, seeing that I, a caucasian female, was a minority, but I was taught so many life lessons, and saw numerous things that not everyone gets to see. I can honestly say high school prepared me for what the real world was going to throw at me. Enough with the blahblah boring…
Â
My guilty pleasures are… Sex and the City, Twitter, Nutella, Glee, naps.
I can’t leave my house/dorm without… Chapstick, bobbypins, phone.
My favorite place to eat on campus is… The Galley.
My career aspirations are… I would ultimately like to have a PhD and be a professor, but until then my realistic, more attainable option is to be an Athletic trainer in either the high school or college setting. I was always involved in some type of athletics growing up, but due to injuries, I had to give them up. Since I cannot play on the field, I might as well contribute while standing on the sideline.
I am… a giver, and a sucker for animals. I have 5 cats at home, and they all hold a precious place in my heart.
My biggest pet peeve is… people who chew gum really loud, butt crack exposure and people who are inconsiderate.
I am currently playing… Set Fire to The Rain- Adele
I am currently reading… Eat, Pray, Love (I am in love with this book, and I plan on traveling Europe after I graduate thanks to it).
If I could meet anyone it would be… Princess Diana, I have always admired her generosity and selflessness. Her time definitely came far too soon. OR. Audrey Hepburn, I’ve been a fan of hers since I was a wee little one.
I never get tired of… Disney movies. I am probably the biggest closet Disney freak ever.
One thing I miss from my childhood is… Recess.
One thing I love about being a college student is… freedom.
Can’t wait!
