My name is Bradlee
and I am a junior at OU. My major is public relations and my minor is Spanish.
Some of my favorite classes that I have taken so far throughout my college
career have been my Spanish classes. This upcoming summer I am hoping to be
able to study abroad in Barcelona, Spain and become completely fluent in
Spanish. In my opinion, learning a second language is so important because not
only do you get to further understand another culture, you also get to know
people that you would never have been able to meet before. This summer I
traveled to New York City, my favorite city in the entire world. There are so
many fun and active things to do in New York and I especially enjoy seeing
Broadway shows and eating at cool restaurants. I would love to be able to
work in New York after I graduate from college. I also had the opportunity to travel
to Beaver Creek, Colorado this summer. I have been going to Beaver Creek with
my family for about 16 years now. One of my favorite things to do during the
colder months is ski with my friends and family. In the summer, however, there
are so many different things to do. I hiked, mountain biked, white water
rafted, and zip lined. Although I love the city, I also feel at home in the mountains.
There’s just something about the smell of a fire and roasting marshmallows
under the stars. Some other hobbies that I have include drawing, listening to
music, and taking pictures. I am artistic and I enjoy things that involve creativity
and thinking outside of the box. Being able to express yourself is very
important and I like how that is accepted and preached in both Colorado and New
York.
