This is my second time writing a UBC blog, so hopefully I will get back into the hang of it! \u00a0I go by the name of Anna. I am a 5th &#8230; (?) year student at UBC.\u00a0I am a first generation immigrant. My parents decided to leave <a title=\"Ukraine, Lviv\" href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2013\/09\/11\/lviv_n_3906920.html\">Ukraine<\/a> and come to Vancouver, out of all wonderful places, to give me and my younger brother a better quality of life. (Thanks guys!)<\/p>\n<p>My interest lie from all over the place. Somewhere starting at graphic design, psychology, french fries, history, glitter, <a title=\"Reddit\" href=\"http:\/\/www.reddit.com\/\">reddit<\/a> , and maybe finishing off at my obsession with Spider man. My hobbies include drawing, inking, playing sports, being active, comic books, x-men, dance, and spending lots of time on the computer, internet, and Photoshop.<\/p>\n<p>This is not my first time taking an online course. In fact, I much rather prefer the hands on involvement and responsibility that comes with attending an online course. Sure you don&#8217;t have to attend class and you can do assignments in the comfort of your PJ&#8217;s. But the level of engagement and self-study that a student does is really a reflection of how the rest of the world works. What you put in is what you get out!<\/p>\n<p>I am very excited to learn more about the impact that the aboriginals had on our Canadian culture, as well as the impact (both negative and positive) that Canadian society has had on them. I am eager to hear an unbiased opinion in the native perspective of our country. I&#8217;ve never taken what I have received for granted. Whether it was moving to Canada, or living in one of the top cities in the world. So in that light, I am eager to appreciate and be thankful for the struggles that the nations before us had to endure for us to be where we are today.<\/p>\n<p>References:<\/p>\n<p>Reddit Website. 07\u00a0Jan. 2014.
