M.E.A.T.


No no no I'm not talking about poultry or deli or anything like that. I'm talking about Melanie Elizabeth Anne Terry, my sister. I have never blogged about my sister, but I think it's time I devoted a blog just to her.
My sister is 2 years and 12 days younger than me. We used to get along really well when we were kids (like most brothers and sisters do), and then once we moved to Oshawa, things went downhill.
When we were in high school, my sister was very embarrassed of me, I think it's because I was not part of that "cool" crowd, and that I had my own little clique. She always said things to her friends about me, and they kinda always giggled after I walked by, or said something under their breath. Things have gotten better through the years, not much, but enough that we can at least have somewhat of a half-assed conversation with each other. But it's not what I want. I want to be able to have a close relationship with my sister, I always have.
I want to be that brother who you can talk to when something isn't going right, when you need someone to talk to. I want to be that brother that you are close with, that brother that you tell people about who is always there for you.
Even though I highly doubt you will read this, I want you to know, I am always here for you no matter what. I love you Melanie, like a brother should love his sister.
I want you to know this, like I said, even though you will probably never read this.

COMPLETED!!!!


FINALLY!!!! I have overcome Satan in the essay writing. Holy hell! (no pun intended....actually). I have finished my rough draft and it has gone through two edits, and then all I have to do is get daddy to edit it, then I should be good to print it off :)
SO excited :) I hope all this work pays off in the end, my DVD, my script, AND an essay, it better pay off, I think when it's done I might post it here and see if you guys like it or not, then take it down so no one else can steal it, because I put A LOT of work into this essay and application.
So thanks to Melissa and Kristen for editing it :)

Essays...


Oh boy, I realized now why I never did so good in English class.... I fucking hate essays. I can't be creative, it's a very structured piece of thing, and I hate it! I have to write a short essay for Centennial college explaining why I should be in this program and yadda yadda yadda.
Did I mention I hate essays?

I guess I better get back to work -_-

Acceptance :D


So I got a letter in the mail today saying that I got accepted to Sheridan College in Oakville. Not my preferred college, but hey acceptance is acceptance! I also got a letter in the mail today from Centennial College (the one that I REALLY want to get into) saying all they need now is a short essay explaining why I am meant to be in this program (which I am currently stumped on, because I haven't written an essay in a couple years, guess I better get used to it :P ) and I also, for a portfolio, need a DVD (which I don't know which one to use, I have the Sweeney DVD or the Lost and Profound....then again I am also working on a music video.... so many choices!) and something else, I think I will probably write a script, a short script... yeah that sounds good :)

I really hope some good comes out of this....wish me luck!
