Hey, this is my all about me.
- 00:07 - 00:09
Um See
- 00:10 - 00:14
My name is Alana, I was born in picayune, Mississippi.
- 00:14 - 00:19
Most people might not know where that is because there's a very small town.
- 00:19 - 00:25
It's nothing but like 1000 people that lived there and
- 00:26 - 00:28
it's in between Hattiesburg and
- 00:29 - 00:32
Louisiana as you can see on the map and
- 00:32 - 00:37
The coast in Jackson were like two hours away from Jackson and
- 00:38 - 00:40
we're like an hour away from Hattiesburg.
- 00:49 - 00:53
These are my parents to Caroline and Antonio smith.
- 00:53 - 00:57
Most people say I look like my dad, but sometimes I have my attitude like my mom.
- 00:58 - 01:03
Um I am the sibling of four. I am the third sibling of four.
- 01:03 - 01:06
Um My oldest brother's chance,
- 01:07 - 01:08
this is him,
- 01:08 - 01:11
this is my older sister, Selma
- 01:12 - 01:18
and my best friend and my younger brother Lawrence um
- 01:19 - 01:21
before I got to Delta State.
- 01:22 - 01:27
I were, I went to school at a community college, the Pearl River,
- 01:27 - 01:28
Pearl River Community college.
- 01:28 - 01:33
I played basketball there and I loved it like I loved how
- 01:33 - 01:39
supportive it was and how in touch we were with the community.
- 01:39 - 01:40
Um
- 01:41 - 01:45
I played there my freshman and sophomore year
- 01:45 - 01:47
and then I transfer here at Delta State,
- 01:48 - 01:50
my junior year.
- 01:50 - 01:55
So I now play basketball here for Delta State and I am
- 01:55 - 01:58
the point guard because I'm too short to play anything else.
- 01:58 - 01:59
So
- 02:01 - 02:02
let me see,
- 02:04 - 02:11
I recently graduated from here and I got my exercise science degree and undergrad.
- 02:11 - 02:17
It was very fun and as you can see the people in this picture, we loved it.
- 02:17 - 02:20
But we also hated it because it was just a long process
- 02:20 - 02:22
and we were just ready to graduate.
- 02:22 - 02:29
But I enjoyed every bit of it and I came back to get my masters and human performances,
- 02:29 - 02:31
fun fact about me.
- 02:31 - 02:36
I am left handed and I am the only left handed person in my family.
- 02:36 - 02:36
Yes,
- 02:36 - 02:43
it is very frustrating sometimes and I get upset because I have to do everything
- 02:43 - 02:47
backwards that my mom or my brother does and they just do it with E.
- 02:47 - 02:49
So I had to learn how to do stuff
- 02:49 - 02:56
with my right hand or like maneuver around it with my left hand and back in community
- 02:56 - 03:03
cause they used to call me lefty because I was so dominantly strong on my left hand.
- 03:03 - 03:09
Another fun fact about me, I also like doing hair anything with hair.
- 03:09 - 03:13
I love, I did my own hair as you can see these and pedals.
- 03:13 - 03:16
Um, I like to re twist dreads.
- 03:16 - 03:21
I like to do braids, I like to do twist,
- 03:21 - 03:23
I like to do anything that just involves hair like hair
- 03:23 - 03:27
is very fascinating with me and is very therapeutic for me.
- 03:27 - 03:29
Um I learned how to do hair.
- 03:29 - 03:35
My, I want to say my sophomore year of high school because my mom was like,
- 03:35 - 03:38
you're not gonna be coming home to come get your hair done all the time.
- 03:38 - 03:42
So I had to learn how to do it on my own which was,
- 03:42 - 03:45
it was pretty funny and it was pretty amazing because I
- 03:45 - 03:47
used to do all types of crazy stuff in my hair.
- 03:47 - 03:53
So um I don't really have much to say and that's really it.
- 03:53 - 03:56
Um I just thank you for taking the time out to watch
- 03:56 - 04:01
this video and I am excited for this class this semester.
- 04:01 - 04:02
