Sports!!

Second blog in a month.  Not bad if I do say so myself!!

I've come to realize that my life has revolved quite heavily around physical activities.  Whether it be sports, physical labor, or just the gym.  I absolutely love doing all of the above and wouldn't mind trying something new that would involve some sort of strength.

But what happens when I can't do these things anymore?  What will happen to me when I am not physically able to do it?

This has just recently crossed my mind as I've been trying to battle my way to recovering from some lower back pains that I can't seem to shake.  I know there isn't a miracle pill that will get rid of all the pain (besides tylenol) for good.  It bothers me that someday I won't be able to play all the sports I'd like to play.  It bothers me that this could affect playing with my future children.

I've gone to Chiropractors, Physiotherapists, Massage therapists and it doesn't seem to be getting any better.  Had some conversations with my girlfriend who's currently trying to be a Chiropractors (GO SWTIE GO!) and from her studies and knowledge, she thinks my muscles are tight and I may have a nerve that is pinched.  Been trying to stretch as often as I can but so far, not much has changed.  I'll continue to keep stretching but I have a feeling that my extracurricular activities (mainly dodgeball) are contributing to this chronic pain.

I've never felt old before but this really makes me feel old.  I totally wish I was wolverine and could simply heal myself. 

Welcome back!

Every so often I stumble on someone else's blog and then I remember that I have a blog of my own and then feel the need to update it and do up a post!

This time I was on facebook and a friend's post showed up on my newsfeed and decided to see what she's been up to.  That led to me stumbling upon her blog which then sparked me to write this.

To be honest I never know what to write when I blog.  I feel as if there isn't much in my life that I experience that can illicit a blog post.  There are a few things that happen here and there with me but naturally everything is pretty much routine.  I've been drawn into a habit and a routine that is quite consistent and very rarely do I deviate from this.  Probably why i'm such a boring person to be around (at least in my opinion).

I think I will try and make an effort to be more sociable but its tough to do that when you don't have much to talk about!  But I guess you have to start somewhere!  It also matters the type of crowd that you're in as well.  The people you are around are vital to carrying on a good conversation.

Anyways... Onward to the blog!

I'm just looking back at my last post and it was pretty much a year ago.  I think almost every time I come back to this blog, I vow to be a more active blogger... As you can tell I very much fail at being consistent with blogs.

I never found the attraction to blogging.  I guess since i'm not much of a reader or writer, this doesn't really fit into my schedule as much.  Takes me a while to think of words to put down and it takes a while to explain situations on these things.  Also I guess there isn't much of a base of "customers" checking out the blog and providing feedback so doesn't make me want to continue on.

Ah well... I guess i'll just write down a quick coles notes of my life in the past year just to bring everything up to speed.

Since the last post on July 25th 2012, I honestly can't remember everything that has happened!! I've had the pleasure of being with my girlfriend for 2 years back in May, met a few new friends at work such as Ed and Ayinde whilst also meeting up with people who have worked with us before but went off to school or something.  Acquired a new job as an Operations Technician and actually will be moving to another job shortly titled Forensic Data Examiner.

A lot of friends that I know have moved out and bought their own places.  Makes me jealous that they have their own place but i'm still waiting for mine to be built.  Stupid thing ain't even a hole in the ground yet!  At least the first building of the whole project has been erected and it's now just waiting for mine to be built.  Expected completion date is April of 2015.  According to my calculations, that's about a year and a half but most likely it'll be 2 years.

Well anyways I think that's all I'll write for now.  Simply because I cannot remember everything that has happened in the last year and a half.
