Ivy's Story
I lived in North York, aka, Downsview, while attending Jane Junior High School and Westview Centenniel Secondary School. I skipped a lot of classes and missed out on a lot and ended up dropping out. I experienced bullying quite a bit and had to learn how do deal with it......that was not a good experience but I learned a lot from it. However, I eventually got my High School Diploma from Marc Garneau Collegiate Institute. I went on to get a Word Processing Secretarial Diploma from Toronto School of Business while working full-time. I then lived in Barbados for a short period and on return joined the Canadian Forces (Regular & Reserve Force). During my time in the Reserves I put myself through nursing school and graduated from Georgian Colleg...Expand for more
e in 1997 with an Honors Diploma. I then went on to get my BSc in Nursing from the University of Western Ontario in 1999. I left the Forces in December 1999 and have worked in California and the State of Washington, but mostly BC. In February 2007 I got my certificate in the Emergency Nursing Specialty, although I completed the course in July 2006, and have been working as n ER Nurse and love it.
I met my husband in 1993, we married in 1998 in CFB Borden and I had my dream wedding. My husband is now retired from the Air Force and I continue to work more than full-time, taking time off to travel or try new experiences.
I would love to touch base with people from school. My motto is " let your past experiences make you better, not bitter".
