Alexandra Bowen is
a sophomore at Frostburg State University.
She is perusing the path to become a high school English teacher. This is a good choice for Alex considering
her favorite subject is English. Alex
transferred to Frostburg from College of Southern Maryland with a major of
general studies. When asked why she
chose Frostburg Alex replied, “My best friend goes here and he said it was a
good school.” That was a good enough reason for Alex to pack her things and
come to Frostburg. Alex enjoys attending
Frostburg and currently resides in the dorms with her roommate Jasmine. “I like her I just don’t like her stuff”
Alex laughingly says to describe her living arrangements. Alex wants to teach seniors English
because of the personal accomplishment of seeing students you have personally taught
graduate. A bachelor’s degree just will not do for Alex she is planning to
receive her masters in English and to teach in Maryland. Alex is a happy person that seems to have the
right attitude to become a teacher.
Alex
is the oldest of three children. She explained that her younger brother who is
18 graduated high school a year early. Upon graduation, his father encouraged
him to join the military, which he did, and gained much needed discipline and
maturity. After he graduated, he joined the military to guide him in a
successful path. Her brother is
stationed in Georgia, at Fort Stewart that is three miles east of the
Mississippi River. The youngest of
Alex’s siblings is her 16-year-old sister.
She is currently still in high school.
Alex’s Dad lives in Florida where he is retired. Alex stays with her dad over the summer and
works at the Abercrombie&Fitch. (http://www.abercrombie.com)
When in Florida she rides around in her car, which is a mustang. Alex
told to me that on one of most tragic days in America that she lost her mother. She was in the Pentagon the day the plane
struck on September 11, 2001.
When
Alex is not attending class or studying she is engaged in her favorite hobby,
reading. Alex says she enjoys reading
books that deal with crime because of the suspense of the story. When asked what was her favorite book was and
why she replied, “Twilight, I like vampires I think they are cool.”
