Recent transfer student, Genise Green, is still settling into her first semester at UNT. The Integrative Studies major has a passion for helping others and plans to attend nursing school after graduating. I got a chance to have lunch with Genise and talk about how her semester is going so far.
So, how is your semester going? What have you been up to?
“I don’t know, I think it’s been going well. Being a transfer [student] is pretty hard, new campus, not knowing too many people…but there’s a lot to do in Denton so I’m managing.”
What do you do? What are some of your hobbies?
“I’m trying to start up a YouTube channel. I really like makeup and trying out new looks. And I’m pretty into hair too. Mhmm…hobbies….is binge-watching a TV-show a hobby?”
What is something you’re really proud of?
“I’m most proud of the little success that I’ve had. I’ve had a job since I was 16. I put myself through school and I haven’t had to ask anyone for help.”
So, what are your plans after graduation? Any big goals?
“Oh I’ve got big plans, man! I’m applying to a nursing program, going to get an apartment in Dallas…I’m going to develop better relationships with my family, especially my sister. I guess I really just want to be happy before anything else though. You can have all the money in the world, but if there’s no one around then what is it all for?”
