Well This is the Part where I get to brag about the Beautiful
Sunshine State that I live in. I'll tell you a little about what
I do in Florida and what my dreams are for the future.
Florida: This state is beautiful,
especially the further south you go. This is the state with beautiful beaches, palm trees, tropical see breezes
and plenty of places to visit and to site see. We have Disney World, Busch Gardens,
Leu Gardens, Sea World, Cypress Gardens, Fairchild Tropical Gardens, Jacksonville
Jaguars, Miami Dolphins, Tampa Bay Buccaneers NFL football teams, and of Course the
University of Florida's Home of the Gators and Florida States home of the Seminoles!!!
So there is plenty to see in Florida. If you just want to cruise up and down
Florida that can be fun too. Sometimes I just enjoy the cruising and looking at all the lovely
sites that can be seen.
I'm a recent Lake City Community College
graduate. On May 2, 1997, I graduated from the Lake City Community
College with an Associate of Science Degree in Landscape Technology.
I am currently working on my Associate of Arts degree. My estimated time
of graduation is sometime next year. My plans are to earn a Masters Degree
in Horticulture from the University of Florida's Horticulture program.
RA..RA.. Go Gators!!!!!!!!
I was Secretary to the Student Government
Association. I recently earned two scholarships, one from the Lake
City Community College Landscape Club and a scholarship from the Lake City
Garden Club. My future dreams are to become an instructor at a Community
College level teaching what I love to talk the most about. PLANTS!!
I also would enjoy working for a county extension office or for a parks
and recreation department or just managing my own greenhouses. Who
knows exactly where my dreams and future will lead me.
My belief is that the more plants that
we have growing on our planet, the more it will help with our environment.
I believe in using plants just not for our exterior environment, but also
in our interior environment. Most are not aware of the different types
of interior plants that actually clean the air we breath everyday inside
the buildings that we either work in or live in. There has been a lot of
testing at the NASA facility concerning what plants clean our internal
air and which ones clean out what type of gases that we breath. It has
been noted that there is at least 45 plants up to date now that has been
tested and shown to clean particular toxic gases from our air. The common
Spider plant rates number one on that list. I will be adding more about
plants and what they do on my Hobbies page. I hope you will enjoy
the information I give you about plants.
