I'm free to be who I want to be

My Autobiography


When freshman Brandy Norman isn’t singing, she is dedicating her time to school and her cheerleading squad at the University of the Cumberlands.
Brandy is a communication major and plans on getting a minor in journalism. After obtaining her degree, Brandy may go to a graduate school to further her education.
Although she dreams, Brandy has not determined where she wants to be in ten years in any aspect of her life. She hopes to become a news reporter for one of the news stations in Lexington, Ky.
Brandy works in the Admissions office for her work-study position. Her part time job is being a waitress at Jerry’s Family Restaurant where she serves food.
The Lexington Herald Leader, article “Kings Island hopes towering swing ride will draw the crowds” relates to Brandy’s childhood because she always loved going to Kings Island with her family as a child.
            Lately, Brandy has watched “Easy A” and “500 Days of Summer." She loves to analyze movies in her spare time and both movies were interesting to her in that aspect.
 Brandy thoroughly enjoys music. “I don’t want to be” by Gavin DeGraw, “Unbeautiful” by Lesley Roy, and “Back to Good” by Matchbox Twenty are her most recent downloads. She relies on music to express her feelings.
The most memorable books Brandy has read are “She Said Yes” by Misty Burnall and “The Jungle” by Upton Sinclair. “She Said Yes” interests her because of the Columbine shooting. “The Jungle” is only memorable to her because she was forced to read it and hated it. She also enjoys reading Cosmopolitan because it lets her escape from reality, and slip into something out of her control.
“I love being able to write my feelings on paper knowing that the paper can’t respond.” she said.
