Introduction to a Future Physician Assistant

Introduction to a Future Physician Assistant 

Hello everyone! My name is Roshni Suthar (pronounced like row-sh-knee). I am currently a junior at the University of Oklahoma. I am studying Psychology. I enjoy taking psychology courses because it’s so easy to apply what I learn in class to real life situations. Last semester, I took Social Psychology and learned a lot of interesting things like how and why people subconsciously judge others. My favorite class so far in my college career would have to be Abnormal Psychology. I have always been interested in psychological disorders and how they come about. It was really cool to be able to learn about several common disorders more in depth. After graduating, I hope to go to PA school. My long term goal is to become a pediatric PA. 

My parents are from India. They came to America before I was born, so I'm a first generation Indian-American. I feel like I am pretty in touch with my Indian culture and heritage. My parents are Hindus and I have been brought up following the Hindu faith. From a young age, I was told the stories of the Ramayana and Mahabharata. Because of my exposure to these epics, I decided to take this course. It's a good refresher on the things my parents taught me when I was younger. 

If there’s one thing to know about me, it’s that I love my sleep. I can literally fall asleep anywhere, at any time of the day. I don’t need a pillow or blanket or even a comfortable location. If I set my mind to it, I can sleep whenever I want. I also really love TV shows. My absolute favorite show is The Office. It’s been almost 3 years since the show ended, but I still watch it religiously. In any given situation, I could probably quote The Office. I love everything about The Office, even the theme song.

 I also love Netflix. I could watch a show for hours upon hours and not even realize how much time has passed. Currently, I’m re-watching Grey’s Anatomy and I also started Criminal Minds.

It’s hard for me to pick a favorite food because I love all kinds of foods. I guess if I had to choose, I would say my favorite foods fall under the Tex-Mex category. But I also really love Indian food because that’s what my mom always cooks at home. Oh, I also love pizza and ice cream. Yeah, I basically love all foods. I could go on and on.
