Maybe this could be stuck at the top so all the new members can read and add to it??

If I am you, and you are me then who is he? Haha man I'm funny, actually my real name is Minh but I go by Mudd to my friends it's a long story..... anywho I'm went to university for mechanical engineering and I recently graduated last spring. Now I've decided to go back to school again to get a graduate degree in Industrial Management. Sounds fun eh? I live in Chatham Ontario, and enjoy snowboarding in the winter and boating and golfing in the summer. I'm a huge sports nut, football being my favourite. I play guitar, though not very good I still play anyways.
Hope that's good enough, later.

I hit Mammoth Mountain up usually once or twice a year. My dream is to head up to BC (British Columbia)...I heard they have a beautiful mountain up there you can spend days boarding on....

Sweet stuff trayte! Yeah, for sure. Whistler is awesome. I ended up boarding at a few of the other mountains more often. Blackcomb/whistler has some sweet riding, but they also charge ya an arm and a leg. I found other mountains (cypress, seymour, grouse...ect) had some nice riding, for a little cheaper. But one does need to experience whistler at least once...so make sure you do sometime!

hi Guys, My name is Rebecca, but no-one ever calls me that. It's either Bec, beccyboomstix, beca or becsta. I'm 23 years old, and work in Marketing. Went to uni for 2 years, but failed (little too much partying i think) so i quit. I love listening to music, hanging out with friends and shopping. I would love to learn how to surf, but am scared i'll look like a kook and make an ass of myself! but one day i will learn (this summer i hope!) Am also learning how to play the guitar, but am a bit shite at the moment, cause I'm still just learning chords. I have tried every sport possible (and I mean every sport) and am pretty crap at most, but still have fun- and that's the main thing right?? Would love to travel one day- was panning it a while ago, but didn't have the money- and now work is going good, so I can't really up and leave just yet. Am not however a big fan of beer- but am a big bourbon drinker! ;D (you're right Kyle, this does feel a little like AA!!)

I was a little hesitant to post amongst all you gods and godesses, but here goes. My name is Mary Anne. I am from Toronto, Ontario and I am 25. I just finished a 3 year college diploma in Sport Injury Management after doing a 4 year uni degree in Kinesiology. Yes, i know 7 years of school, i am crazy!! I am working right now at an injury clinic dealing mostly with people that were in motor vehicle accidents. It's good for right now, but eventually I want to get back to working with athletes. By January I should be able to call myself a certified athletic therapist, but I still have one exam to finish up in December. I love every sport, never played competitively but am always up for a game of anything. Loving music I think is a give in. I wish I was talented enough to play but no luck! Bye Guys, keep smilin'.....
