First Day of Kindergarten
The 4th of September 2002, I attended my first day of Kindergarten at Montessori, and my first official day of schooling. This was a milestone because it was my official integration into the educational system, and was the first taste I had as a young student of the hardships I would experience during schooling. -
First Day of first Elementary School
As my first day of Elementary School, this was my advancement into further education. At my first Elementary School, St. Benedict Catholic School, I continued furthering life skills, such as communicating with peers, as well as educational knowledge, like the concept of homework and tests. At the end of the experience, I ended up a more well-rounded individual. -
First Day of second Elementary School
Because my family moved into a new home, I had changed elementary schools. Naturally, this meant that I was forced to abandon the environment I had grown comfortable with and had to adapt quickly in my new conditions in order to survive. This event has therefore been essential in the development of vital life skills, such as learning to adapt to change, which, in the modern world, is usually frequent and unexpected. -
First day of Gifted Program at second Elementary School
In the fourth grade, I took the Gifted test as my teacher had seen potential in me. I passed, and in the year of 2007, I began my first year in the Gifted Program. The Program provides specialized education for higher proficiency learners, and brought me both advanced knowledge ahead of schedule and also a different outlook on life, being identified as a Gifted child. -
Career Seminar
On this date, several parents of fellow classmates were invited into the class to speak to the students about the types of careers that they performed. This included information such as all the responsibilities the job encompasses, pros and cons of the job, how the experience is, and details such as the salary and such. This was a memorable experience because it made me rethink what criteria I want to judge any future potential careers based on. -
Beginning of Cadet Program
This was the date I began my training in the Cadet Program. Cadets form a national organization whose purpose is to develop in youth the attributes of leadership, engaged and active citizenship and physical fitness, all within a safe environment that stimulates an interest in the Canadian Forces. The inclusion of this extracurricular in resumes gives me a reputation of having excellent character traits as well as communication skills. -
Volunteering - Day Camp
On the first week of July, I began my first volunteering job at a Day Camp at a church in Bamburgh Circle. This volunteering job was fundamental in my growth as a person, because it taught me many important life skills, such as the responsibility needed in fulfilling your duties as a worker, or the importance of giving back to the community in general. -
First Day of High School
This date was the first day of High School. High School is the last phase of preparation for University, which is a vital factor of which career you pursue in the future. High School is also a more social environment for students to learn in, which results in connections, networking, and the gathering of allies, which is all part of the Ally Principle of life, and I have met many new people at this school so far. -
Volunteering - School
For experience, I was invited to volunteer at my Elementary School over the October Break. Naturally, this meant that I would handle responsibilities throughout the entire day as somewhat of a second teacher doing all kinds of jobs, ranging from marking assignments to creating lesson plans. Again, this experience developed traits required in a worker, such as responsiblity and diligence, and also gave me a taste of the dedication one must forfeit to their careers. -
DECA Provincial Competition
Having succeeded in the Regionals and being admitted to the Provincial DECA Competition, I spent three days and two nights in downtown Toronto at a Sheraton Hotel, where I learned many things about business that were required to excel in the competition. Many bits of information such as business terms, marketing strategies and etc. all came together and allowed me to realize I enjoyed the subject and concept of Business. It gave me another choice for potential careers for the future. -
BSC Cadet Camp
July 9th of 2012 was the start of the Basic Survival Course at Cadet Camp. This experience incorporated a large amount of self-discipline, where one takes care of what one does, and takes full responsibility. This experience has actually made me realize that I rather like this style of living, and therefore this experience has made an impact on what kind of career I may be looking to choosing in the future. -
Queens ESU
On the week of the 12th to 17th, I participated in the ESU program at Queens University. This program involved living like a student on residence, taking regular classes with other students from 9 until 3, learning about certain strands of certain subjects. I in particular took a Biology and Physics course, which involved much of both hands-on and theoretical content, and was an excellent experience for both short and long-term satisfaction. -
Goal - 350 Volunteering Hours
By this date, I will aspire to have volunteered enough to have 350 hours completed. The reason for this goal is that volunteering grants people vital life skills, such as communication / people skills, as well as earning more allies to give you a positive reputation through things like letters of recommendation, as well as just memorable experiences that one should have many of on the journey to life, and opportunities to move forward. -
Goal - Graduation
At this point of my life, I would, hopefully, have decided what I want to pursue as my career in the future. This date marks the official transition from high school into university, which is a key player in how your life ends up. Depending on how well you do, your future could be affected. -
Goal - First day of University
By this point I will have decided what I want to pursue as my career, and will be working to develop my knowledge of the field in an effort to become the best worker I can be for that field. This goal is for me to aspire to succeed in University, in order to build a good reputation to be utilized in job interviews.
