september  09, 2020    About me  Hi, My name is Jacinthe Glenfield. I'm an 18 years old girl and I was born in Laval. I study in the Science program at Montmorency College since fall of 2019. I decided to do DEC in two and a half years to help me get better grades. I have three semesters left. My program is partially a lot of chemistry, biology, maths, and physics. I also need to do my general subjects. This program is for people who really likes how the world around is made or for people who love doing research and find a solution to many problems that we need to solve. This program is hard but with a lot of perseverance everyone can do it. In this blog, you will find the reasons why I love science so much and I will try to convince you why it is so interesting. I invite you to follow me in my blog adventure!     About this Blog  The reason why am I writing this blog... It will help me to practice my writing and it will help me with the way that I com...
