Background

I was born on May 27th 1989, and have lived in Quebec my whole life. I have also lived in the same house since the day I was born, and I live with my mom, dad and sister.

Interests, Activities & Plans

I am a full time student at Mcgill University. 
For the past 3 years I have worked as a cashier at a Metro grocery store.
When I am not in school or working I enjoy playing sports such as rugby and basketball.
I also like to play soccer with my group of friends.
Upon completion of my degree at Mcgill, I would like to work at Centennial Regional Highschool which is where I completed my highschool studies.

Other Interesting things

Apart from my love for sports, I am also interested in writing poetry. I have been writing poems since grade 6, and I have had only 1 of my poems published. Some day I hope to publish a book that will include all the works that I have written over the years. I also enjoy painting/drawing abstract art, although I do so only for entertainment purposes and I do not intend on making a career of this. Cooking is another one of my passions, and I would love to take cooking lessons once I have finished my physical education studies.

My Favourite Websites

I am on the internet a lot, and these are the sites that I visit most often:

www.facebook.com  -  This is a good way for me to keep in touch with the people I might not get to see a lot of. I'm NOT in to farmville or other games like that, but it is still a fun to be on.

http://postsecret.blogspot.com/ - If you haven't heard about post secret, it is basically a site full of annonymous secrets. What I mean by this is that people make postcards about their secrets and they send them in to PostSecrets. The people sending their secrets make sure to not put a return address or any names that could give their secret away, then PostSecrets picks postcards and posts then up on this site every sunday. The posts are fun to look at, but at the same time they can be moving and touching. It's definately worth checking out!

http://failblog.org/ - This site can be extremely funny because it shows pictures and videos about mistakes that people have made. It shows off human stupidity in a really funny way, and although it is difficult for me to describe this site justly, I know it is a must check out site!

http://mylifeisaverage.com/ - This site is also very funny, although it involves only reading because there are no pictures. Basically, people write in about the funny occurances that happenned throughout their day. These are not huge blogs about what happenned, they are usually shorter in nature. It is hard to explain, but check it out to find out more!

Although these sites might be difficult to describe they are very entertaining to be on, so check them out if you have some spare time!
