    My Life: Past, Present, Future

  • Starting School

    In September 2010, I start attending Chedoke Elementary School. My teacher is Mrs. Watson. This influenced me through putting the framework in that shaped my thinking for the rest of my life. This a social norm, as everyone is expected to attend school.
  • Start Highschool

    In 2020 I graduate from Bellmoore Elementary School, and start attending Saltfleet District Highschool. The main influence this event has had on me is the effects of COVID on my Learning. I built many bad habits during my first years of highschool. that I am still trying to break today. The term that fits with this event is "Role Strain". Highschool does cost me a lot of stress, and I do find myself struggling to meet expectations for highschool.
  • First Job

    In August 2021 I started my first job at Tim Hortons. This influenced me through helping me understand the relationship between time and money, and it influenced my financial decisions. I think of price as "how long?" instead of "how much?". This is a Role Set for me as a student, to hold a part-time job. I need money to prepare for the next stage of my life.
  • Music

    In September 2022, I started playing guitar. This has led me to learn the Piano, Saxophone, bass guitar, and Keytar if that counts as a separate thing. This has influenced me because it completely changed my goals and aspirations. I want to be a musician, and without music my life would be so boring. This is why I've been so bad for handing things in, its because I'm always practicing.
  • Band (expected)

    This year I would like to start a band. This leads into another event that is conditional on the success of the band. This will influence me because it will effect the time of my other life events. If I do this, I will probably have to put some other things on hold. This is Transition, as I am transitioning out of school and into life after school, and trying to completr some of my goals.
  • Secondary Education (expected)

    In September 2025, I hope to start higher education. I am going to take a year off to work, so it's 2025 instead of 2024. I want to study psychology, somewhere in Toronto. This will influence me because it will almost dictate what I do for the rest of my life. This is a transition from one life event to the next. It is a very standard next move for students and I am excited for it.
  • Touring (expected [conditional])

    In 2027, if my band has success, I want to start touring around the world, playing music for people who enjoy it. This will influence me because I will experience many different things, and seeing things from around the world and different cultures will change the way I think about things. This is apart of the trajectory of my goals of being a musician.
  • Married (hopefully)

    In 2035 I would like to be married. Realistically its not up to me, but this is what would be optimal for me. this will influence me because I will be basing my life with this person. I am excited for it. This a life event for most people.
  • Getting Old

    In 2060 I will be 54. I will have hopefully completed my goals. This stage of life is something I am excited for. I am excited for every stage of life. This will influence me because my body will get older, limiting me a little bit, but my mind will get wiser so it balances out.
