The Intro - What's Really Going On Here

When I was little and people asked what I wanted to bee when I got older and my answer would be "a cartoon character". When I got older, and was finally able to differentiate fiction form reality and know that anime was not real I realized I wanted to create it. To share the joy it brought me, that blissful emotional escape, with others.

I realized this when I started high school and since then started planning to make my dreams a reality, but like any good adventure story there were always some struggles along the way.

Some where mid way through high school I realized that I'm not really that artistic. Okie, I can draw kick-ass backgrounds and landscape, and design in general is soo my thing, but when it comes to the actual characters, I know what I want but just can't draw it. *deep longing sigh*

It was around this time that I realized I was so much better in the story department. Not to brag, but my imagination far surpasses even the most unimaginable. Angels and dragons, fairies and demons, memoos and bopbops, and a world so far removed from anything seen that simply and completely radiates peace and joy. Your welcome to join me if you want.

Well back to the original train of thought.

So when I was younger and finishing high school I decided that I wanted to go to university. To me, it seems pretty important to be qualified for something...right? But more importantly learning more about myself and what I want to do.

After seeing my parents pay for my brothers and sister to go to school I really didn't want to be that much of a bother. Lucky for my as the heroine of this story, a mystical wizard called the government gave all the nationals of the country the gift of free tertiary education. So off to the University of the West Indies I went.

Having the strong desire to travel and experience life I applied for an international exchange to York University in Toronto, Canada. It was one of the single most amazing experiences in my life. Being on my own for a year and doing everything a big city like Toronto had to offer was a great growing experience.

I met and made friends with people from all around the world which is great considering I want to continue traveling.The next stop on the list is Barbados.

After reading some fine print and having some excellent lobbyists in the international office who were there for my behalf, I applied to and was accepted as an inter-campus exchange student to the Cave Hill campus of UWI.

That's pretty much where the next part of my story starts.

Two weeks to go and then I'll be off another adventure. I hope it will be just as awesome as all previous excursions.

Here's to life, and a life worth living.
