During my community college years, I have changed my major a few times. However, my interest has always been in the medical field. Finally, I decided to pursue my education in Biology. With a BS in Biology, I hope to reach my goal of becoming a professor.
My interest in the subject developed after visiting India for a few years. While I was there, I studied in the medical field with three main subjects which were physics, chemistry, and biology. Biology was a subject that I disliked but, to my surprise, I looked forward to this interesting class everyday and was excited to learn. I’ve always thought biology careers have to do with organisms and nature. Little did I know that the body systems, like endocrine, nervous, skeletal, and other body systems, are also a part of this subject. Being fascinated by the human body, I realized that biology is my desired major. Taking a biology class has helped me tremendously as I have learnt that it is a very diverse and wide field with many options.
Although I’d like to teach at the university level, I volunteer each week as a tutor for elementary to high school students. MEND is a volunteer organization to help children from low income families succeed in education. I assist the students in their homework or any other educational activity, like playing monopoly or guessing flashcards. Some of these students don’t study biology yet while others study environmental science. However, I enjoy helping every student with any subject. This work helps me gain teaching experience and allows me to teach at different grade levels.
I have not yet taken many biology courses in my current college. With many prerequisites to satisfy, I haven’t gotten the chance to take courses of my choice. However, I study biology books with much interest. I believe getting a bachelor’s degree is a great step towards a rewarding career.

When I go the sexual reproductive system section nothing is mentioned about homosexuality. Even the sections that cover the brain. I know that the body runs like one big system, still everything that the body does supports heterosexuality not homosexuality. Yet my few psychology books says a lot about homosexuality.
I know that some say that us Christians should drop the Bible and read up on science more, but when it comes to science and homosexuality it just confuses more and more. I don’t get it. If homosexuality is biological and not mental then why isn’t it reflected in medical or biology books.
Actually 2007, 2008, 2009.
My wallet says they are very new. Damn scientists trying to make a buck off of students.
