Woodstock General Hospital.
Woodstock General Hospital. Carly is my only sister and she has always been my best friend.
When my mom was running on the treadmill, I got my hands stuck under the track until my mom noticed me. I had third degree burns on my right hand and almost lost it. I had plastic surgery and I was never supposed to get the nerves back. The surgeries were successful and I was a poster child for my doctor.
I started school in JK at Trinity Private School in Woodstock. Trinity played a huge role in my life and teaching me kindness, integrity and honesty.
I started dance at Woodstock Dance Academy where I danced for 2 years before I quit. I then started again in 2006 at On Your Toes for 1 year, then I switched to Elite for 2 years, then back to On Your Toes for the competitive team until 2013, and 2014 was my last year of dancing.
I went to Muskoka Woods the first year that I could for 1 week. I went with my best friends Brianne and Abby and I have returned every year for multiple weeks with Brianne every year since. This year her and I are going there for a leadership programe for 5 weeks.
My family was affected by the stock market crash of 2008. My dad is a financial planner so the economy and stock markets play a huge role in his work. When the stock market crashed it caused a lot of pressure and stress on my family and that year we were on a spending freeze, which didn't affect me too badly because I was young, but I couldn't go to camp that year.
I changed schools to Algonquin in 2010 because I didn't have many friends at Trinity because it was so small. This was a big change from a school of 100 kids to 600+. I also had to redo grade 6, because I skipped a grade at Trinity and I wasn't allowed to in the public system.
I went on a mission trip to Nicaragua with my church. It was a life changing trip to see and work with the people in need there and I hope I can go back next year.
I started high school at Huron Park.
