Hello September! 🧡⠀
These are my affirmations for this month. ⠀
•⠀
•⠀
Recently, I have been thinking about the life I want to live & also about my emotional sustainability. In order for me to create a fulfilled life, I constantly think of nourishment, pace & commitment. ⠀
•⠀
•⠀
I have been trying to settle into a new place of peace for the past few days. A lot of changes has been happening - good changes, uncomfortable changes plus exciting changes. Having gentleness with myself & even with others keeps coming to me. I really find it hard to take it easy on myself - I don’t know if it’s because we are programmed to be stronger than we are soft. ⠀
All week - I have let tenderness win; whilst intentionally enjoying moments of gentleness with myself. Acknowledging that I don’t have to constantly be on edge & resilient.⠀
•⠀
•⠀
As I shift and go through life - my goal isn’t always to get it right because I have never gotten it right initially and perhaps I won’t but I plan to live a life that’s intentional and gentle. ⠀
•⠀
•⠀
Finding the balance in the big stuff, softness in strength. 🧡⠀

People often believe that you need to be a Steve Harvey or Oprah Winfrey to have a superb personal brand. ⠀
⠀
The key to doing this is to craft and curate your personal brand consistently and you need to remember to be real! ⠀
⠀
Having integrity, being honest and transparent with authenticity are what will differentiate you from the rest. ⠀
⠀
Stay true to yourself in the process. Stay true to your brand! ⠀

From time to time I will get questions about what pushed or motivated me to do this (speak on immigrating to Canada through the school route) 🇨🇦⠀
⠀
These are the TOP 3 REASONS why I started doing it on YouTube, Instagram & Support Group.🔝 ⠀
⠀
If I can even assist one person with my guidance displayed on my platform, every ounce of the effort is worth it. 💛⠀

In Canada you may use your evaluation assessment for 5 reasons:⠀
⠀
* Employment ⠀
* Immigration ⠀
* Higher Education ⠀
* Licensing ⠀
* Apprenticeship Training ⠀
⠀
➡️ Which credentials should be assessed? ⠀
⠀
* The highest level of education received; in most cases. ⠀
* In order to get points for having 2 or more credentials an assessment would need to be done for each one. ⠀

Good News Anyone?? ⠀
⠀
Statistics Canada made it known that immigration is definitely one of the key driver to Canada’s population growth over the next 50 years. 🇨🇦 ⠀
It is estimated that the bulk of this growth will be in Ontario. ⠀
⠀
It is projected that in Ontario alone by 2043, population will be between 16.5 million and 20.4 million.⠀
⠀
It is seen where the Canadian population has grown substantially in recent years; from 30.7 million people in 2000 to 37.1 million in 2018.⠀
⠀
Ontario would remain the most populous province according to the projections. ⠀
⠀

📝 Long Caption Alert 📝⠀
⠀
I have been asked this question a lot of times … so here goes! ⠀
⠀
I have been in Canada 🇨🇦 for 6 months & I have learnt a lot. It isn’t an easy transition process & I am still going through that motion. ⠀
⠀
Even though I love my home country, Jamaica 🇯🇲, I had the immerse desire of moving to a different country, where I would not only be exploring but to be able to live an independent life with grand opportunities. ⠀
⠀
It all started in June 2018 when I was working in America 🇺🇸 on the J-1 Work & Travel Program. I took mental notes of differences between a first-world & a third-world country. ⠀
⠀
I then started doing my research of all possible immigrant friendly countries. With Canada, I was very impressed. The more I read about Canada, the more I became knowledgeable about the country - it was the more I wanted to move here. I had visited the country more than once, so I only knew of Canada through the lens of a visitor. ⠀
⠀
I decided to move to Canada as a student for varying academic reasons and also to give myself some time in learning more about the country; which would help me to see if I would actually like living here. ⠀
⠀
I am currently a student; doing a 2-year post graduate program at Fanshawe College & I landed here in December 2020. ⠀
⠀
This page (my personal space) is going to be about my experiences that I have here in Canada; work, school, home, family & life. You will see how I am slowly adjusting to an entire new culture & WEATHER.⠀
⠀
I will pass on everything that I know and have learnt throughout my experience with hopes that it will be helpful to you. ⠀
⠀
Please share in the comments below your reason of considering Canada your next home! ❤️⠀

“To love and to be loved is to feel the sun from both sides” - David Viscott ⠀
⠀
This picture with the sun kissing you is a perfect representation of our relationship - we light up each other lives. ⠀
⠀
At the moment - my light has been dimmed but not OFF and even then - you have been my strength & my rock! Even then you encourage me - support me! ⠀
Even when your shoulders are wet with my tears you still cradle me in your arms and you reassure me that everything will be fine. ⠀
⠀
How do manage to do that? That’s strength! I salute you! The world is better knowing you are right here in my corner. ⠀
⠀
I am so thankful God added you to my life! ⠀
I love you! ❤️ ⠀
⠀
Thank you for being here for me! ⠀
Thank you for your love & care! ⠀
Thank you for chasing away my fears & filling them with hopes! ⠀
⠀.. you & me until the wheels fall off baby! ❤️⠀

We are very grateful that you all have extended your assistance to us. These are some trying times and we are very appreciative. ⠀
⠀
We see the inbox messages, emails, mentions, shares and calls and we are very grateful for the outpouring of love. ⠀
⠀
To be honest - we didn’t expect this! We expected taunts, backlashes, negativity etc. But this just shows us that humanity is still alive and that the hearts of men is still filled with love and understanding.⠀
⠀
Thank you so much for doing a lot on your part to ensure that the message is spread across nations, countries and varying platforms. Words can’t express how thankful we are and it really warms our heart. ⠀
⠀
We haven’t been able to respond to you all as we are overwhelmed in despair. Please allow us some time to respond to each person individually. While you continue to help us by donating and sharing our situation please don’t forget to pray our strength! ⠀
⠀
With love, ⠀

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH‼️⠀
⠀
I stand with ALL WOMEN - ALL SURVIVORS, ALL VICTIMS of sexual abuse! ⠀
⠀
Why are women being executed when they are the ones being targeted??? ⠀
⠀
The unfortunate reality is the majority of (Jamaican) women have experienced violent encounters and life threatening interactions DAILY, in some way shape or form! ⠀
⠀
Life nuffi live suh! We are in dire need of reform in Jamaica land we love! ⠀
⠀
Stand with me! ⠀

LIFE IN JAMAICA | AS TOLD BY AMANDA

Heeeey guys! ♡

My name is Amanda and welcome to my internet home - "As Told By Amanda". It's about life here in the Caribbean islands of sweet sweet JAMAICA. I was born & raised here ... -- "Straight out of St. Andrew, Jamaica" --

My Youtube channel will be striking a balance while providing information from those who wishes to RELOCATE here, those who wants to VACAY here, those who just LOVE Jamaica to those who even LIVE here. All this is inspired by my home country.

So, in my internet home - you will find a combination of - Videos (All Things Jamaica), Vlogs, (Jamaica Inspired), Lifestyle & Tips.
