I’d Like to Change The World The world today is chaotic, and worrisome. I do not like the current state of affairs, many nations are violent, and too many people lose their lives to war, famine, and neglect from their government. I fear, that if the nations of earth keep refusing to cooperate, people will never eradicate poverty, poor living conditions, and famine.

I Would Change the World! If I could, I would change the world by: Getting nations to help each other Eliminating racism, and stopping division between people

The Unforgettable Moments in My Life An unforgettable moment In my life was when I first came to Vanier in grade 7. I came from a different elementary school than everybody else, so I knew no one. At first I was a little nervous and scared, but I became used to it. Everyone was nice to me, and helped me out. It was at Vanier that I met most of my friends I have today. All of whom I am most happy I got the chance to meet! I am proud of my school, and enjoy attending it!

The Unforgettable Moments in My Life Another unforgettable moment in my life was the day my sister left for university. She left four years ago, and that impacted my life greatly. I have more privacy, and time alone. It seems almost eerie how much more quiet it is around my house. My sister and I were good friends, and I miss her company, at times. This signals to me that I am growing up, and I felt a lot older when she left. Soon I will be leaving my house, which will be a grand old adventure, and I can’t wait.

The Unforgettable Places In my Life A place I can never forget, even if I wanted to, is Vanier Catholic Secondary School. It is the place I spend most of my time at. It is more than a school to me, it is like a community where everyone is welcome. Students, teachers alike, are friendly and there to help. At Vanier you don’t have to worry about violence, it is a safe place. You come to learn and feel welcome. Not only is Vanier academically superior, their sports teams are known to be deadly!!

The Unforgettable Places in My Life Another Place I love is my house. It has always been there for me, big and full. I moved into my house on my fourth birthday, and I can still remember that day. I have spend many happy days at my house, with my family, friends, and by myself too. I always have felt loved and safe at home, I have made many happy memories here, and I hope to make a few more!

I Wonder What I will Do When I Grow Up When I graduate, I hope to continue onto post secondary education. I would ultimately like to go to Acadia University, but if the tuition keeps rising, I won’t he able to afford it! As a second choice, I would go to University of Victoria. I have also considered going to a specialized college for computer animation. I am not 100% sure of what I want to do later on in life yet.

I Wonder What I will Do When I Grow Up For a job, I think I want to work as a computer animator for Pixar, making movies such as ‘Finding Nemo’ or ‘Shrek’ I am not sure if I will sick to that plan though, as I grow older and develop new interests, there are other jobs I like too.

Journey’s Ended; Journey’s Just Begun Life is like one big train ride, between two cities, Youth and Old Age. Youth is where everyone starts. We grow and learn, making friends along the way. In my trip, I am just leaving the city limits of Youth. Starting to grow up, being more independent, making choices that effect the rest of my life.

Journey’s Ended; Journey’s Just Begun I am happy with how my journey has gone so far. At times I feel sad to leave Youth behind me, but I know that we all get older. I look forward to seeing what Old Age will bring. What my future will be, is partly up to me. My actions and attitudes today will affect me tomorrow, and the rest of my life. By making responsible, smart choices now, I will grow up without regrets.
