Make The World More Beautiful

Lately I have put out statements of interest for the programs that I have applied for. I wanted to catch the reviewer's attention and to show them who I am. So I spoke about the Lupine Lady.

TidBit of the Day: From the book Miss Rhumphius - "When I grow up,"I tell her, "I too will go to faraway places and come home to live by the sea.""That is all very well, little Alice," says my aunt, "but there is a third thing you must do.""What is that?" I ask."You must do something to make the world more beautiful."

What I'm Rockin' Out To: Sarah Harmer - Trouble In The Fields

I remember when I was a little girl one of my favorite books was a story entitled Miss Rumphius and on my first day of YLCC it was our bedtime story. I wanted to be like her. To visit faraway places and then to come back home to live by the sea. But as Miss Rhumphius reminds her great niece "You must do something to make the world more beautiful." That is a big demand you may think, but really its not. Miss Rumphius did her part by spreading lupines throughout the hillside to make it more beautiful. I always wondered, "How can I do that?" I know I have a lot more time to do a lot more, but I think that keeping a positive focus and caring about not only your close friends, but for all people would be a great way to start.

Here We Go This Way, Here We Go That Way

Life shifts. When you think you have everything planned out you are wrong.

TidBit of the Day: Life Mapping is not following the pathways in your body like following the food down your esophagus such as you would drive your car up the highway. Life Mapping is a unique personal empowerment technique designed to help you identify your life purpose and be the most amazing you that you can be. You lay it all out there and set some goals.

What I'm Rocking Out To: KT Tunstall - Suddenly I See

So I was all ready to go to Cape Breton this Saturday. Now it is all changing once again. Instead of Education at Cape Breton I am going to be going to MUN. Just in case ya wanna know here's the new schedule (my life map). Summer 2006 - going to Saskatchewan for Native Law Summer Program (may 23-july 14th), then white water rafting with Charlene on the Ottawa River, then to YLCC?? Fall 2006 - MUN Education Term 1. Winter 2007 - Teaching Internship. Summer 2007 - MUN Education Term 2. Fall 2007 - University of Saskatchewan Law School... three years of that! haha. So that's the map if I connect the dots. But as I've found it all could change once again.
