Who do I admire?

The person that I admire in my life is my mother, a woman who is extremely strong and who has given to me the support and love that I need to go through in a long journey of my life. She is the one that is always there if I need her, we have been always more than a mother and daughter, we are real good friends. My mom had me when she was seventeen, and today is her 37th anniversary. Although, I admire her I would never see me living the same life that she had, she got married when she was seventeen and I believe that when she was my age 36 years old she already had four children, she took care of us at home until I were 12 years old and than she started working at a health care facility, so she could help my dad financially at home. She went through a lot of difficulties, but always believing that better days would come, consequently my brothers started to work also when they were fourteen years old so they could help at home at least with a little thing like paying for the PGE. When we were young she always divided the house chores such as cleaning the stove or dishes or even cooking. According, to her it would make us become a good householder in case she wasn't there to do things for ourselves and if we didn't have the money to pay people to clean. She always helped us doing our homework, I remember that we had to memorize the math tables in our bedroom and we shouldn't leave there until we knew it. Consequently, I believe that she reached her goal which was to make us honest people knowing that if we wanted to be successful we had to study and work as hard as we could and she always should say "honor your color."

Tiger

Tiger is the chinese zodiac sign that I was born with, and it says that it symbolizes such character traits as bravery, competitiveness, and unpredictability. Also, tigers love to be challenged and will accept any challenge if it means protecting a loved one. In addition, they say that we are stubborn if we realize we are not in charge of something, consequently we have a slight tendency to be selfish, but after all we are extremely generous. Although, I agree with 90% of what I read I don't think that when they say "Don't let their calm appearance fool you though," I don't think that I am a calm person, I have a lot of energy and I am most of the time loud and I am trying to develop a more balanced approach to life, so I can utilize my energy more efficiently. I am brave and I think that competitiveness is part of a woman's life, and yes most Brazilian's are unpredictable people since we do most of what we feel like; for example: we don't make plans for the future we live now, like if we want to go to dance, or a movie theater, or even have lunch with a friend we just called to ask if that friend is available. But in the USA we always make plans and we try to make it work on time. Protecting who I love is in my nature since I am an older sister of three other siblings. I would die for my family. In conclusion, most of the time I trust on my instincts to continue watching myself to become a better person.

What an amazing College!!

Canada College is an amazing college which I just finished an interior design program last year. And now I am taking ESL classes and seeking to take the Kitchen and Bath Design Program as an AA Degree Certificate. The learning process is awesome; moreover, the library is very organized and the lighting there is well planned especially with the natural and artificial lighting, also the learning center will make you feel so welcome there. While you are at the learning center you can use the computers to access the internet to do research, take advantage of the tutoring, and do home work. In addition, if you ever get tired of all that studying you can enjoy the beautiful seating at the armchairs facing the outside - it's wonderful.
