Flying friends and family

While my life in the world in aviation is only beginning, I can safely say that one of the most joyous and heartfelt experiences is taking friends and family flying. Sharing the gift of flight is a remarkable feeling, and never grows old. Every flight is different and unique in its own way. The best part is that is is ALWAYS fun to do. Letting someone fly for a bit, to even doing a few "exciting" aerial manoeuvres keeps the heart, as well as human spirit going at a fast pace. In a way, this is also how my story in aviation took off. Flights bought by my parents and those given to me through Air Cadets brought me the goal to pursue my pilots licence, and that I did. I learned that if you want something, go for it. Dream big, you deserve it! And this experience through flight, I can share, and prove to others that anything is possible.

19

For many days now, I have passed another birthday on my journey of life. While it felt like any normal year, it somehow felt different in my heart. While I still had a few friends over like every other year, this is my last birthday before post-secondary education. This is a big step in my life, for the next chapter in my life is here. While it is also the first birthday I spent at home (been with cadets every other year) and this is my first year that I can now legally drink, I still feel somewhat confused and disoriented. Such feeling are to be expected, due to the nature of the changes that are happening and will happen in a short time. Growing up, I now have to budget my time. Friends here, a LOT of work there, school, workout, shooting films, flying, traveling, etc... The list goes on.

While I may have mixed feelings about my future right now, I know I must move on from the past filled with good times, bad times, broken hearts and adventures had. Time to continue moving down the road we call life.

The human heart is very confusing (Part 2 of 2) closure

It feels nice to have closure, 
to have been able to talk to you,
for us to be able to both share our feelings,
on a wonderful walk with me and you.

Both of us spoke many words and stories,
no tears shed, just honest opinions and thoughts on relationships and life,
too much going on then and needed rest,
fine a while ago but now off to university and life and the known of the unknown.

No more thinking what-ifs,
I can move on and let you live you life,
find my own path,
you go to the sun.

Thank you for being an amazing friend,
we will always be,
see you around,
My feelings can now go as I move on with closure, to the dawn of tomorrow.

Done Highschool forever! AGAIN!

Well, the victory lap is finally over. While the first half was for Physics and Comm tech courses, the second semester was an easy Leadership and Writers Craft kind of time. While I may not miss the courses themselves, I will miss the regular outings with friends and what not. Haha, I guess I will be seeing them more often over the summer, though! :^D

It was worth it taking a victory lap, ESCECIALLY meeting some awesome people and making some good memories. Although I have to say, I am finally glad that school is done once again. Time to move onto greater things. Good bye, Innisdale... Again!

Leap of Faith

Sometimes, there comes an event in our lives that we just have to leap into and have trust in yourself. A very large aspect of this "leap of faith" philosophy right now in my life is asking a special girl out. I'm not going to go into any detail due to respect of privacy, (and common sense) but I just want to say that I have learned in the past to always follow your heart and at least TRY, or else you will be plagued with regret and the "what-ifs". If it will be a yes or a no, I am unsure, but never being in a relationship before, either way it is going to be a "learning curve" and a fun experience. At this point in time, I really don't mind if it a yes or no. I just want to know the answer so I can move on with my life. Honesty is key. She is a smart, beautiful, fun and mature woman, and I know we will be great friends either way, so as one famous doctor once said... "Allons-y!"

The Glass


I dropped a fragile glass, that has shattered into a million pieces.

I feel injured from it, both from the pain of such a beautiful glass being destroyed, as well as the shards scarring my foot.

Did I take the glass for granted, or was this the way that things are suppose to be? Am worthy of such a glass being in my hands in the first place?

I may never know, for the glass lays cold, and broken on the ground. My heart shattered into a million million pieces.

The human heart is very confusing (Part 1 of 2) Before

I see you with my eyes, yet feel you with my heart,
The emotions that describe you cannot become words,
for if they did, they would not be able to describe you,
because there are no words to describe how brilliant you truly are.

I first met you a while back, shy and new in my life,
A flame newly lit,
yet still burning,
Was this love? Then, I just never knew.

Over time, the sands eroded the confusion and showed the truth,
I fell in love with you,
all of you,
the good of all that was and remains to be you.

There you were in my life every day,
the reason I went to events was to be with you even it was for a few seconds,
it was worth every second,
I love you.

The question remained though,
do you love me too?
We've spent so much time together telling stories and I have gotten to know you,
and you gotten to know me.

Do you share the same feelings?
I really cannot tell,
Are these hangouts and smiles genuine,
Or are you with another one of the guys?

I work so hard, yet none at all,
I should reveal my feelings,
yet past mistakes raise the stakes,
the grueling feeling of failure.

I want to ask you out so much,
yet will thou say yea or neh?
My friends and yours support me,
but is there another player in the Frey?

I don't want to hurt you,
did I ever before? 
I want this friendship to last forever,
so could it be more?

Only honesty will tell, let the game come to the end,
I want to say what I have to say, and  let you listen like you always do,
so let us go for a walk,
the human heart is confusing.
