My life in Canada was not what I expected. After I got accepted into college and I had to moved to Canada, I was overcome with joy wanting more out of life, because it was an opportunity of a lifetime to study in another country.When I came to Canada my struggle began and my world was falling apart.My life in Canada without my family was a kick in the stomach everytime I think about it. Because I have no job and I had so much to do when I was in school at the end of the day when I return home to my apartment I was lonely because my family was not with me.When I came to think about it, life where I came from was wonderful in every way I can think about.I was a grade 4 teacher with dreams and hopes of go to Teachers Training College and I was planning to get married in Winter 2009.My life in Canada became even more hard when I had finally gotten a job after 4 months.Because I had to work atleast 30 hours a week and do 6 classes every week with the addition of assignments and home work to submitted almost everyday.Sometimes, I would fall asleep in class or forgot what I had to do or when I had a test. Many of my teachers were understanding and encouraging. But I had to start picking up my weight with my school work because I pay 4 times what a domestic student would pay to go to school. After my second semester I was doing well and I had a lot more awarness of my surroundings and what I had to do to stay ahead of all the loneliness and negatives from others.However,I am in my final semester and I am feeling tired,confused and myself esteem is very low. Because I am putting down myself and I feel I do not have what it takes to reach the end. I have 11 more weeks to go ........do I have what it takes or not..........will I achieve it or .......?

Of course you have what it takes. Good things happen to good people, or so they say, and I know you're a good person. Just start looking for the positives in every negative situation, and keep doing the best you can; you'll be rewarded soon enough :)
