If you take a good look, you’ll see that my primary color is orange. That says that I’m an impulsive person who likes to have a lot of fun. I can’t stay in place and do nothing. I need to move and be in interaction with people around me. I really don’t like rules and I don’t want power at all on the other. I think I will learn so much better if in class we can do some physical activities in English. I completely agree with my colors and I thinks it really represent me.

A Little Bit About Me

Hey guys! My name is Jeremie Barrette and I'm 17 years old. I was born in Montreal but I moved in the Témiscamingue when I was 6 years old. I love hunting and fishing and be in the nature; I hate big city. When I am more than three days in a huge city i feel bad; I really don't like cities. I have a passion and it's rock climbing. I love so much to be in the bush with some friends and climb a big mountain. I love the fact that I am extremely close to death. I need adrenaline in my life because if i don't have some, i feel very bored and useless. Many people thinks that i am immature and not enough serious, but in my opinion, more you are immature, more you have fun! So, it's not me who is not enough serious, it's the other who are too much serious. I HATE RULES. Now you know a little bit more about me, but anyway, I don't care. 

Travel is The Real School

The school is the centre of the education in Canada, but do you think it’s the better way to acquire knowledge? For many reasons, I think travelling is better than school. First of all, travelling help to known other culture in other countries by talking with different people and help you to open your eyes to see the real world. On the other hand, we have the school who try to explain culture they don’t really know with boring books and Oriental ideas. In second, travelling give you a chance to learn in a complete unknown area and also have a lot of fun. I think it’s the best way to learn. Otherwise, school tries to get your head full of unnecessary things with boring programs and activities. In conclusion, I think travelling is the real school; the school of life!

Face to Face With Death

Have you ever had the feeling being close to death? I have had. I had a huge car accident in a snowstorm and I felt many incredible feelings. First, I was in a snowstorm and suddenly, I had no more control of my wheel! I  felt so afraid that I just closed my eyes and waited for the impact. I was scared of getting hurt. After that, when I opened my eyes, I saw my legs stuck and the car started burning. A big wave of sadness entered my body. I was no longer afraid, I was sad because I thought I would die there. When I finally saw the light of the ambulance in the storm, I was so happy and so relieved that I almost fell asleep. For example, when they got me out of the car, I was so tired that I was not able to walk on my own. As shown, I had many different feelings that made that day the most incredible day of my life.
