After completing one university class already it's obvious that my high school life is over.
High school is different for everyone. Some hate it, while others love it. As for me, I loved high school. In high school I met my two very best friends. Seeing them every day was always a highlight. Now with one living very far away and one not going to university in fall, I won't be seeing them everyday. I remember in grade eleven, the grade twelves told me to savour every moment of grade twelve because it goes by incredibly fast. I didn't think that was true. As the year went on I noticed that my senior year was fading fast. Before I knew it, I was walking across the stage getting my diploma.
Near the middle of grade twelve I decided I wanted to be a Dental Hygienist. I didn't have enough time to take the math I needed along with the Chemistry I needed, so I have to take it in university. Because of that, it will take me much longer to complete everything in one year so I will take all my classes over 2 years. Dental Hygiene will take two years, so I'm hoping to be all done school in four years.
University can be quite pricey and my parents told me I need to get a job. I have never had a "real" job before therefore getting a job could be quite challenging because I don't have really anything to put on my resume. As a teenager I babysat all the time, I still do but it's not really enough to pay my way though university :) I also had been on set many times and even had the opportunity to be a stand in for six weeks. Being on set you are paid very well and it will pay for two years of my university. I still needed a "real" job so I won't have any student loans. Last Saturday I applied to nine places. As of today, three of the nine called me back for an interview. I took the first one that called and it's a bussing job at a local restaurant. I have had one training day and it was so tiring. I have another training day tomorrow and I'm really excited.
I am suspecting these next few weeks to be very busy but it's all worth it in the end.
