I went through an interview process to get into Physical Therapy. My very first interview at 18 years old. Only 50 people were accepted per year into this program at the University of Manitoba and I had no backup plan for the year if I was not...

I dislike being told what to do.  I dislike being told what not to do.  I don’t think I'm alone in this.  As kids we are told what to do and what not to do quite a bit.  When we reach a certain age and we start to be...
