Aidez-moi !

This past Sunday, I celebrated my 19th birthday, and I was trying to think of some worldly words of wisdom to share on my blog; something about growing up, or becoming an adult or responsibility. As if I know anything about. This "adult" slept for 12 hours last night after taking two naps. However in my vast 19 years of life I have learned a little about life. Emphasis on the "a little."

Une Journée Pistoloise!

Le couche-soleil au Trois-Pistoles!

J'étais ici en Trois-Pistoles pour trois jours et j'ai la déjà aime! C'est une experience magnifique! Je me sens que mon français a déjà amelioré et il va continuer de devenir mieux! Pour cette "blog-post" je vais vous dire qu'est-ce que j'ai fait hier, pour démontrer un jour typique et normal au le programme!

The Journey Starts!

This (short and sweet) post is coming to you from the Via Rail train #44, Toronto-Ottawa! I'm currently on my way to Trois-Pistoles, Quebec for the spring session of the Explore program, which is the government funded program that allows young Canadians to immerse themselves in the second of their official languages. (i.e. Anglophones learning French, Francophones learning English).

I'll be blogging throughout my five weeks during the program so if you guys decide to participate in this program next year, you guys will know a little bit of what to expect!

So I know this is a short post but I still have 13 hours till I'm estimated to arrive, so I'm going to get some shut eye! :)

Summertime, and the living is easy

Now that the school year is done, the big question for university students is what are you going to do this summer? Some are doing summer courses, some are doing exchanges, some are working.

Summers in university are, for many students, about how you can use your time effectively; are you going to earn money? Get more credits and fast track your degree? Volunteer and get a new experience?

Take On The Challenge

I had my last meeting yesterday. I had my last exam yesterday. I'm doing my last shift at the GCSU office. I'm all packed up. First year is done.

I was trying to think of a defining word or theme for this "end-of-first-year" post. All I could think was how challenging it was. Your first year of university is challenge. However, something being a challenge doesn't always have to be a bad thing.
