UFV

*picture from google.
I chose to go to UFV because I am considering going there, it's inexpensive and really close to home. You need to have graduated with your portfolio to attend there and to have certain classes for certain programs.
I'm not sure what I want to take for sure, but the program I was thinking about would take around 4 years for the bachelors degree, and maybe a couple more added if I wanted to get my masters. I would recieve my degree in kinesiology. There are a few jobs that I could get with that degree, although the only one i'm interested in is a personal trainer. Job prospects are pretty good, its hard if you just take a personal training course, but if you go and get your degree more people will hire you. It will cost a couple thousand a year, depending on how many courses I take. For a scholorship I would need to get good grades and apply. There is other opportunities like bursaries. What surprised me most about the school was how small the classrooms were, some reminded me of highschool classes.
Their website is www.ufv.ca/home.htm. The most useful part of the day was walking around and seeing what UFV was like. There was a Tim Hortons there, and the campus was nice and newer looking, it was interesting!

Remembrance Day

.
I'm actually not sure how I will observe Remembrance Day. I hope I think about it more then just a day of school off, because that's how I usually thought of it when I was younger. This time I'm going to think harder about the people who died for our country, because it takes selflessness to go to war. Somebody else's dad or mom or brother or sister etc. is putting their life at risk for us and our country.



This is Captain Nichola Kathleen Sarah Goddard. She died only at the age of 26. She was from Calgary Alberta, and died May 17th 2006. Her unit was 1st Royal Canadian Horse Artillery. The Captain was killed on a ground offensive, which is like a miltary action launced on land, by ground troops.
