Hello classmates,
I am Jesa Colliness, I have always had a love for children and helping them learn. I have also always loved playing hockey and riding horses. I have continued to play hockey and ride horses. I play on a rec hockey team here in Regina called the No Regretzkies. The team has become like a family to me, I spend a lot of time with them in the rink. I am also Miss Rodeo Estevan. I had the opportunity to compete against two amazing girls. Being Miss Rodeo Estevan means a lot to me, I have always tried to be a part of my community and inspire girls chase their dreams. Winning rodeo queen is much more than just winning a crown, it is being a person in the community who upholds the utmost respect for myself and being a happy face people can be have friendly conversations with.

I have used my blog for a couple of semesters now. At first I was having a hard time navigating the website and all of the helpful functions, but as the semesters pushed on I started to get the hang of it. I don’t think I would say I am a pro by any means, but I know enough that I offered to help a friend in the class start up her blog. In the begin of my blog journey I was not the biggest fan. Then idea sharing my words with my class gave me a bit of anxiety, but I found that all of my classmates were kind and helpful. Now I feel no anxiety posting my words for all to see. I welcomed the idea of it this time, I knowing that I had the tools to post with confidence.
Hi Jesa! I enjoyed reading your blog and getting to know more about you. As someone who adores horses, but does not ride anymore… I think your achievement as “Miss Rodeo Estevan” is super cool! I also appreciated the link you provided, as it is easier to get to know more about a topic/person when links are accessible. I hope you have a good semester, I am excited to see what more you have to post.
Hey Jesa,
Thanks for sharing a bit about yourself! I think it’s great that we have these blogs to get to know each other, especially with this class being online. You have some impressive hobbies that require a lot of hard work. I love riding horses as well, but I don’t get to do it very often. My favourite memory of horseback riding was when I went to Mexico, and our trail went onto the beach.
I may need to get some assistance with the Edusites blogs. I tried using it last semester to make my ePortfolio but ended up giving up and switching to Google Sites.
Looking forward to reading your blogs this semester!
Hello Ashley,
It was so nice to hear from you and hear that you to ride horses. Riding horses is just such a wonderful experience and love meeting new people who share my love.
I would love to give you a hand with the Edusites blog. I had to get my roommate to show me the ropes last year.
Have a great rest of your day!
