Hi!


My name is Justine. I am currently pursuing a double major at Brock University in English, Language and Literature, and Labour Studies. I am hoping to be finished school in December 2011, instead of April 2012, and that is why I am taking two full and one half summer courses. I hope to one day work for the government somewhere; Ideally, I hope to acquire a career with Boarder Services.

Personal Life
I was born in Niagara Falls, Ontario, only because the town I grew up in did not have a hospital. The town I was raised in is called Chippawa, Ontario and I think that it is the best kept secret in all of Canada. Chippawa is a community located within the limits of Niagara Falls. It has 1 stoplight, 7 bars, and 5 baseball diamonds. Chippawa is one of those towns where everyone knows your name; a very close knit community. It was in Chippawa where I first started my dance career. I danced for 18 years, and taught for 6. I travelled all over the United States for competitions and dance workshops. I took Checcetti Ballet Exams and had the opportunity to work with amazing choreographers.

My parents are both hardworking immigrants. They own 2 of the 7 bars in the town and are not alcoholics- I swear. They both coincidently came from England when they were 12 years old and met when they were in high school. This would make me first generation Canadian. I have a big family, with 6 bothers and sisters. The following list is names in order from youngest to oldest:


 * 1) Daniel
 * 2) Jenna
 * 3) Andrew
 * 4) Justine
 * TJ
 * 1) Amy
 * 2) Amanada

Education and Academic Career
Well if you asked any of my family and friends what I wanted to be when I grow up, they would say “a career student!” Even though it might be looking that way, I do have other aspirations. At first when I was accepted into Brock in 2006, I wanted to become a teacher. My guidance councilor from high school advised me to take English in university because I did very well in that subject. Turns out, English in university is way harder than English in high school, especially when a student is more concerned about her social life than school. Long story short, first semester Univeristy did not go so well and 4.5 years later I have a degree in Enlgish.

It was somewhere in those 4.5 years when I decided I did not want to teach anymore, so what the heck was I to do with a degree in English? I took some electives in Labour studies and did very well in them so I decided I was going to take an extra 2 years and get a second degree; cha-ching!
