How to be accepted into my dream university
It made me
so excited 
"Others had always doubted me, and that made me doubt myself, but I overcame that. And now, in September I am heading to York University, in Toronto, to get a degree in environmental studies, which is something that I am very passionate about."
How I did it: First of all, I started to work harder in school to bring up my average. Before my senior year, marks were never a big deal, I still did well in school, and I was on the honour roll, but I never cared that much. But senior year was different, and I came to school knowing that I had this big goal that I needed to accomplish, and I needed to work for it. That goal helped my stay motivated.
Lessons & tips:
- Keep goals, they will benefit you!
- Meet all required deadlines, don't procrastinate!
- Aim high
- Always love yourself, no matter what other people think.
- Think about what you want out of life, and find what you're passionate about, and then strive to do that!
