Acceptance

Heyo everyone, this weeks blog is about success and it’s consequences. 

One of the things that I’ve been working towards is the upcoming days of college and the approaching life of adulthood. One of the big things of this was working to obtain acceptance to college. I had only applied to one, so my chances now were fairly slim. However, on Friday, I received my acceptance letter to Lethbridge College. I have strongly mixed feelings about it. On one hand, I’m happy about the success. I made it, I was able to get through. This could set me up for the rest of my life. However, I’m also anxious. Lethbridge is 6 hours away. That separates me from almost everything I have at home. Life is going to be undergoing some huge changes.

I think that when you look at opportunities in life, you have to weigh in the positive and negative outcomes. Life’s about taking risks and taking chances. Sometimes you have to sacrifice something for a larger outcome. 

Update

Heyo everyone, this weeks blog doesn’t have a theme. Life’s been really busy but at this point it sounds like all my life lessons are being reiterated and rewrote every week and I’m saying the same thing in different words. It’s gotten rather difficult to blog based on this, so this weeks blog is going to be a post saying life is going alright. Stress is ever present but I’m keeping my chin up 

Rainbows

Heyo everyone, this weeks blog is going to be about overwhelming amounts of work and looking at the rainbow past the rain

There is like, less then 15 school days till I start writing my diplomas. In the timespan of a few weeks, I have to write 7 different exams, including 4 papers and 3 tests. The pressure is starting to kick in, and anxiety is really beginning to build. Ill be the first to admit that my attention span isn’t really that great, so spending 6.5 hours a day for two days in a row writing straight essays is going to be a two very tough days. I struggle getting through the 84 minutes of class time I get to write, so getting through the 780 minutes isn’t going to be an easy go. And to make that better, my three exams are back to back to back, so I’ll have no rest or study time between them. 

I’m a tad worried about it all. It’s a lot to take all at once, but I’m also anticipating the following semester. It’ll be a lot of fun, because I’ll have my two favourite core subjects, phys ed, and a spare. Plus, once that’s done with, my summer is already starting to look like a fun time. I’m ready for next little bit to unfold, but for now, I’m going to live in the present.

A Small Thank You

Heyo everyone, this weeks blog is going to be about progress, and a short one.

When I look back to my first year of the IHC, I was a blue belt, and far, far from the person I am today. Over the years a lot has happened; I've overcome obstacles, I've fought fights I didn't know I could, I found a home away from home, with a family to go along with it. Every decision I have made has led me a little bit further down this path I walk on, and I don't regret any of them. The distance I've come is more then I ever could have thought I'd be able to. Overall, the progress that has been made has been good, both in general and to me personally. I'm grateful for everything and everyone who has influenced my progress and decisions and to everyone who supports me no matter what happens. Thank you everyone.
