Another sleepless night means writing another blog in the dark while laying in bed. It really seems to be how/where I write the most. The silence is so quiet I hear myself talking as I write. Not real talking just talking in my head...you know what I mean!
Most of you likely recall that I'm fundraising for the BC Cancer Agency for the month of February via Lose the Booze. At the start of day 1 I was in the lead for most dollars raised and now sit in 3rd shy of top spot by $110. I want to take back top spot for 2 reasons: 1) to keep raising money for the battle against cancer and 2) my competitive ego! At least I'm honest in saying I like to win!
I was contacted by Lose the Booze a couple weeks ago wondering if I'd be willing to share my story and how I've gone about raising funds. I feel honoured that they selected me and recognized the efforts I've put in to this campaign. It's never fun asking for donations but as you know I'm very passionate about giving back to the people who saved my life and help others every single day. I answered some questions and approved a draft that will be submitted to local media. Once it's published I'll be sure to let you know.
My school application process will be complete come month end. I've sent in transcripts, about to do a typing WPM test and attend an information session in March. I'm told come April I'll be made aware if accepted. It truly is a numbers game as there are only so many spots available, so fingers & toes are crossed! I think I'd be a fantastic Health Unit Coordinator and never would have selected this career had it not been for the ladies in this role at the Cancer Agency. Thanks for the inspiration ladies!
Merci beaucoup to all who've sponsored me thus far. From $10 to $100 it all makes a difference and donations are gladly welcomed until the 29th...leap year! Help my ego...help the battle. But let's start small and just say it's for the ego!
