Get Ready, Get Set, Don't Go...

Hello!
So to kick start this whole blog thing I've decided to do, I am going to share with you a bit about myself.
My name is Jesse, I am 17 years old and live in Kingston Ontario...for now, in about 2 and a half weeks I am moving to Cornwall Ontario, which is 2 and a half hours from where I live now.
But I'll get to that in a bit, I'll start from the beginning...

When I was 6 years old, I started going to a babysitters house with my younger sister, her name is Velda and she is like a second mom to me, she babysat my sister and I before and after school everyday for 4 years, I wish I had more time to go and see her but I am so busy lately...
When I was 10 years old my family was posted to Hawaii, so off we went, leaving my home behind for 3 years, or so I thought, we extended a year, so we were on the beautiful island called Oahu for 4 years, where I met so many incredible people, don't get me wrong, I met my fair share of bully's along the way, but I was raised strong, so I dealt with them appropriately, I ignored them, never let their drama get to me, plus I had a great group of friends to count on!
When I was 14, we moved back home to Kingston where I began grade 10 and reconnected with some of my friends from before I moved to Hawaii, as well as making a ton of new friends! 
So grade 10 passed, then grade 11...then grade 12 came...my final year of high school, I began dating Billy, who I have been with now for 15 months as of today, I don't know where I'd be without him, he makes me beyond happy (and sometimes straight up pissed) but I love him completely, grade 12 didn't faze me in the beginning but as soon as semester 2 creeped up on me, I started to get nervous about finishing high school, because your life really doesn't start until you are done with high school and off to college.
So I applied to St. Lawrence for Journalism, but of course the St. Lawrence where I live doesn't offer Journalism, so I had to apply to the one in Cornwall, 2 and a half hours from home...I got accepted.
You can say I've been kind of spoiled, I have had only one job and it didn't work out. So my parent's have bought me pretty much everything I own, and I'm leaving, I can't rely on them any more, I have to do everything for myself, which I'm fine with, just nervous...

So here I am today, preparing for college and the journeys it brings. I am thankful that I know my dorm-mate, Melina, she is also taking Journalism and is going into her second year of college, so she can show me the ropes, help me out and all that.
I am going to share with you my experience through college, all the ups and downs, I also tweet frequently and upload youtube videos , so if you don't like to read much, you can always just check those out if you want to keep up with me :3

I hope you enjoy reading these blogs, because for me it will be like a public diary, which sounds kind of intimidating xS I'll be sharing with you my ups and downs, the good and bad...
