@Scribartz: Lmao. You gotta work for foreign service if you want to XD
Uptown Toronto is pretty quiet. I assume most of the night life is in downtown XD
I like living in the quiet part tho. The only time it got noisy was when the Raptors won lol

@Ixora: you: you have to be in this.
Me: *googles how to get into it* Challenge accepted.

Lol. But in all seriousness, It's good to hear about that place from someone who actually went there. Realistically my college i want to go to is in the scarborough area so it's not directly in toronto. So I have high hopes that I'll have the best of both worlds. City life and quiet studious life.

@koneko: Thank you, Koneko! I will keep all of this in mind. I'm the same, I can be a huge cry baby, but I also know I ca wallow so I try to like, give myself a time where I can cry. [usually in the shower] and then it's me being happy pappy when i get out. But yeah.


@Hachi: I am. I failed going to college once, then took a CNA course and proved I could be good at school. And now I finally am trying again at like, a university. So for me, This is me giving myself one more shot. If it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. ^^; and that's just it. That's why I'm so determined to try and give myself my best chance with any advice, tips, tricks, and routines I can.

@koneko: We call ourselves bottlers. xD I've been told before I'm so whiny, or too negative, etc. So for me it's easier to just chole it all down than say anything. =\ This habit isn't natural, it's learned. That's the saddest part about it.


@Ixora: That's the one!
And i will for sure! It'll be a while before I can even visit to see the college at this point. xD But
hey, I'll for sure let you know if I ever am. =3

@Scribartz: Any reason why Centennial? There's a bunch of other places that offer it too? O:
I guess so. I'm completing my application to Seneca as we speak. But I wanna put int 2nd and 3rd choices to programs, y'know... just to be sure.
And I'm still looking up what those 2nd and 3rd choices are gonna be.

@Ixora: Just liked how it looked and what it offered a lot better than others I saw. There are a lot of colleges there that do it, but i don't really like the sound of them. ^^;
Heyyyy! Get that acceptance letter yuuuuuuuup!

@Scribartz: I've actually never seen Centennial (but the street it's on sounds hella cool). It's pretty far to the place I go to in Scarborough.

@Ixora: I did a digital tour. They apparently had a feng shui expert come in to set up their dorms and stuff. And it's just.... ugh... Seems perfect. Along with designated community study areas. I'm hoping... lol. One day.
Still! GETTTT ITTT~!

@Ixora: xD Same. Plus the way they have some dorm rooms set up make me actually like, want to be there. There's one set up where i believe there is a partition wall in the dorm room to cut off the sides, but it stops and has and opening and there's like a tbale in the middle and it's like, okay, some privacy? But maybe a study area? Idk what it is all about but it was weird enough that I liked it.

Idk why they'd make it like that but I just... ugh. I can't wait to get past this 4 year and gooooo.

@Scribartz: Oh wow the floor plans are really good! Seems much much bigger than Seneca King's! I'm jelly lol.

Why'd you take 4 year tho instead of going straight to the 2 year?

@Ixora: doubtful that it is. Lol. But I can't wait!!! EEEE!
And those don't look bad though! You get a double bed, which is bigger than standard dorms which usually have a twin long. It's cute! But with privacy and lets be real, doubles are great for when S/Os visit. =P

Because I didn't have a traditional education and there's a crap ton of holes in my education. Plus, I don't have all the tools in my belt for doing artwork. And I wanted to take studio art and gain those skills and tools I need. Plus there's pre requisits where I have to be familiar with more than one kind of program for x, y, and z reason, an art portfolio, etc. And I'm guessing they aren't short on applicants for this particular area. Besides, gives me the chance to duel major and get another 4 year degree on top of my art [they share same credits for a lot of classes] and be able to work a decent paying job whilst getting what I want. And besides, who knows if my interests will change? And plus, I can't afford to go to ontario rn.
