Anthony Franklin - Introduction

Hello,

Well lets start with something basic. I am 18 living on my own and I moved here from Kansas City. While in high school I was highly involved with extra curricular activities mostly involving sports. The sports that I was involved in were football, golf, track, baseball,wrestling, and cross-country. I have been to state for multiple reasons and have been successful in all. My state awards include entomology 2nd place, cross-country 3rd place and 9th in my weight class for wrestling. I plan on becoming a RN in the next two years. That is just a rung in the ladder for me. The pinnacle I plan to reach is far superior.

In consummation of school I would like to be a neurosurgeon. I first fell in love with the med field when my father went to OTC to get his RN when I was around the age of seven. He would bring me text books at the end of the semester for me to read over. The one I found the most interesting was his anatomy book. One can assume I was more inclined to read that book because of the pictures. You would not erroneous It did grasp my attention what aided in the study of the pictures was my love for reading. When i was a child it engrossed my life and till this day it still consumes a lot of my day. I studied that book , but the nervous system captured my attention the greater than the rest.

When I was young I pondered many questions I still have about society and it's mannerisms. I pondered many of the questions psychologist ask now. I also love working with my hands, so I put my loves together and neurosurgery is really what i am passionate about. I used my job to my advantage to help further my interest in the med field. I have befriended a retired neurosurgeon who bequeath his neuro-anatomy books and others to me. I hope to learn a lot in this class and it is indubitable that I will. :)
