Bio


Hello everybody! My name is Amanda Fernandez and this is my second semester at TWU, I transferred from North Lake College.  I'm pursing a degree in General Studies and my concentration areas are Health Studies and Business. I'm a junior and I hope to graduate next spring. I'm pursing health studies because I think it's fascinating and I'm pretty excited about taking this course. I hope to learn to take care of myself and be better informed when it comes to my health. I also plan to pass on any new information I learn to my family to help them be aware and make wiser decisions too when it comes to their health.
            Other than classes I spend much of my time with my family. I live at home with my parents and have two younger sisters and we're really close, they're my best friends. I am also engaged and we are hoping to have our wedding next fall, I'm super pumped and can’t wait! I also have four dogs; two Chihuahuas, one maltipoo and one Dachshund beagle mix. They are all super spoiled babies. Besides my love for animals I love to watch old movies. I almost made it through all the Cary Grant movies on Netflix over winter break!
Something unique about me but I think is weird, is that I am terrified, and purely petrified of sharks yet in awe them. I DVR every episode of shark week and if shown a picture of a shark I could probably identify it. For example did you know that there’s a species of shark that can swim up rivers?! It’s called the Bull Shark and the most aggressive type of shark there is and is responsible for more three times as many attacks on humans than Great Whites! A bull shark has even been caught 2,000 miles up the Mississippi River!

Anyways that's a little bit about me; I hope everyone has a great semester and good luck! :)

  2. Hello Mandy!

    First off, congratulations on getting engaged!! That is so exciting! Hope you have an amazing wedding!!

    Your dogs all sound so cute! I have one dog and he is definitely spoiled as well. I am also terrified of sharks, but I LOVE Shark Week. Sharks are so interesting to look at! I didn't know that fact about Bull Sharks so that is something new and really interesting to learn!

  3. Hey Amanda!
    Congrats on your recent engagement!
    I dont quite have 4 dogs but I do have one Chihuahua and two collies! If I could afford to have more dogs i would totally have more. I love shark week as well! It's the best week in television of the year! I've actually gone swimming with some sharks in mexico a few years ago. It was one of the most fun I've ever had.
