Blog Assingment #1

        My name is Crystal Raper I am considered a junior, but this is actually my first semester here at University of South Alabama.  I spent my first two and a half years of school at Faulkner University, and graduated with my associates degree in science.  So, I heard South Alabama was a great school, and here I am. I was born and raised a Mobile native, and like my parents I am a huge Alabama fan. 
        When I am not in school or studying I spend a lot of my time with my family and friends.  Neither one of parents went to college, so they are very excited that I decided to go to school.  We are a very close family, mainly because three years ago my oldest sister, Patricia was in a serious car accident which left her paralyzed from the neck down. 
         Being in the education field has been one of my passion for the longest time, since about the second grade to be exact. I just love the thought of helping students learn, and open their minds to new ideas and things.  It is not really a passion, but I truly enjoy my job and work place. I have been a server and Felix's seafood resturant for a little over a year, and I love it their.  The people, food, and atmosphere are all very enjoyabe.
