Examples of Future Applications Of the skills learned from moving to Toronto ➔ I have experienced adapting to new environments, and keeping my possessions organized, which I can apply to moving out of my parent’s house ➔ Open-mind enables me to learn more about new places when I travel ➔ Learning to interact with entirely new people can be used when I start working in a new environment ➔ Becoming more confident helped me lose my shyness
Graduating to High School ➔ Graduating taught me that I can accomplish anything, even if it takes ten years (it did) ➔ It taught me not to be afraid of minor things, like that one test I didn’t do well on, because in the end it’s so insignificant ➔ I started trying and taking interest in new things, expanding my future career options Collect one LIFE tile I also got my first part-time job.

Trying Out For Badminton ➔ Learned how to work as a team and communicate using reflexes ➔ Taught me that failing is motivation for doing better next time ➔ I saw that I could practice to improve, and that nobody is perfect without putting in effort and trying ➔ Showed me that when I lose, it’s because the other team has put in more time, not that I’m bad at the sport Collect one LIFE tile 2016 Proceed to next turn!
