Sorry

I know that you guys have all been anxiously checking my page everyday hoping for a blog update. However I have really sucked it up lately with posting regularly.

The best thing that has happened lately is that The Office started again, now you may read this and think "Man Ryan you must have a pretty horrible life", however that is not true I just really love The Office and my life is still pretty good, I just missed it that much. Also I had my coaching debut today, and it was alright, can't complain to much I mean first tournament of the year, and there is room for improvement of course, but I am very excited for what this team can do. I was very impressed, there were huge strides take throughout the tournament.

I completed my first university assignment tonight even though it is not due until Monday, ya that's right two days before it is due I am done already. I am pretty pumped about that. Also tonight I am going to play bingo again, hopefully there will be some good luck tonight.

There was something else that I meant to write about but completely forget and it was the main reason I was posting, that is too bad you are all missing out on the most groundbreaking news probably, oh well hopefully for you I will remember for next time.

People

So as some of you may know I am a big fan of people watching, and the university seems to be a good place to see a large variety of people. So lately I have been gathering information about different types of people. I do not mean to judge or stereotype these people, just these are the things I observed and the several different by not limited to types of people you can meet in university.

The Keener - Fairly self-explanatory, first one into class and last one out, sits in the front row, generally a nice person overall.

Question Guy - Self-explanatory again, always has a question about everything the teacher says. No matter how simple the statement he has a question about it. You may find yourself looking around after he asks that thinking to your self, "you have to be kidding me."

Comment Guy - Similar to question guy, but just has a comment, not a small snicker to a friend though, this is always a comment for the whole class.

Tim Horton's Guy - Always walks into class late, and you will rarely if ever see him without that large double-double in his hand. Also uses the coffee as an excuse for having too much energy. Using phrases like "Shouldn't have had coffee this morning." YOU HAVE COFFEE EVERY MORNING!

Talking Friends - This is a new generation of people for me that I need a new name for, they come into class a little early always sitting next to each other, they are the only ones that know each other, thus they are the only ones talking. Often making comments "Why is it so quiet that is so awkward." They are very proud of having someone to talk to. I am going to take a stab and say chances are they were not very popular in high school and enjoy everyone listening to them speak.

Will do anything for a Girlfriend Guy - This guy attempts to make small talk with every single girl in the class. Finally when a girl shows interest he clings to her like white on rice. Eventually he hears he has a boyfriend and he is left looking again.

Jack Black Guy - I can't think of any other way to describe him, a little bit chubby but still wears tight shirts and tight pants. Has long hair and gives off the impression that he is going to stick it to the man. Does not care much about what other people think. Mad Props.

Club Girl - Was at every club every night, at least you would think so. Always has stories after the weekend about how boring the club was so she just needed another drink, but then she left to another club, it was also boring so she just needed a drink, but then she left... You can see the cycle. Somehow after all her weekend adventures she still loves her boyfriend, and that is the only other thing you will hear her talk about.

The Legend - Now this guy is a cool guy, he is similar to Jack Black Guy in the sense that he does not care about what other people think. But he is a cool guy still, he can get along with anyone, will sit down at your table and talk and you will feel like you have known him forever. Most people have there is a chance he has been in university for several years now just taking a course at a time. None the less still a good guy.

The People Watcher - This guy is usually trying to blend in with the crowd, you may find him sitting on a bench with a Notebook taking notes on people. He seldom approaches other people and he will eventually use these notes to post them on his blog so other people can know his findings. Often looks quite creepy, sometimes mistaken for a pervert however he is not.


Ooppps that last one was me... Anyways I don't mean to be offensive, I just needed something to blog about.

Moving and things

So I am moving to a new house on October the 27'th. And before you say again! Like everyone else who has said that, I just felt to let you know that I had the same reaction. So that means it is time to clean up like mad. Seriously so much cleaning all the time, kind of boring. Just like school, the other day I was sitting in class, and the though actually crossed my mind "What am I doing here?". I am still not really sure what I am going into, or what good all these classes are going to do for me. The only useful one so far seems to be Principles of Coaching, and that is because I am actually coaching a team, and even though everything we talk about seems to be absolutely obvious, I think that eventually there will be useful stuff.
Math is pretty hard, and the prof has completely ruined Math for me, seriously an hour and a bit of notes everyday, the other day I finally broke down and bought some more text books. So expensive, now I just need to actually use them, maybe that is what I will do tonight.
In the mean time, I am just going to focus on getting rid of this terrible cold that is bogging me down.

Wow

So every time that I want to blog something it is when I am at school, and for some reason this site is blocked and I am unable to do so. So I have actually wanted to blog a lot more then I have been able to.

I recently read a blog, where someone said they did not want to start another boring blog where people just write about their life and waste space on the internet. I hope that is not what I am doing, because I would like to think that my life is not a waste therefore writing about it and putting it out there for other people would not be a waste. I am not really upset by that statement, just putting it out there.

Life has been busy between school, coaching volleyball (which has yet to start), church, and Bingo! Ya that's right I went to the casino to play bingo, and before anyone that would like to say "Ryan that is gambling and that's wrong." I would just like to state that I disagree, I don't really view it as gambling I think it is a fun social activity, and it is also quite cheap, $5 for two hours of Bingo fun, and you aren't just sitting there watching something, you are actually socializing with other people. Anyways that's what I think, so cheap, fun and social, not like watching a movie, which is fun, but do you really get to know someone if you go see a movie in the theater with them. I think not.

So today I go off to the first volleyball tryout I will coach for a team, and hopefully not the last. There you go everyone, sorry Internet hopefully I didn't waste your space again.

As Promised

So I told my uncle I would put a little link in here for him.

For those of you that know which I hope is all of you, Hockey Night In Canada is looking for a new theme song, and my uncle has a few entries go give them a listen. Also the top listened to song right now is the worst piece of music I have ever heard, so do not allow that one to win.

Here is the link,

Blades Of Fire

You can go to his profile to hear the other songs.

New

So it seems new is the new new. Ya thats right take that and chew on it for a while. Today I am blogging on my brand new lap top. And the other day I finally got the newest Relient K CD, which was something I had been anticipating, on another note while thinking about all my other RK CDs I realized that they all seem to missing all over the place, most of which are stuck in an old CD player that is stuck shut, so I am in the process of taking it apart to get them out. So if you own the RK Cd's and would care to burn me copies of all of them that would be helpful, because I did buy them so I have supported the band, just am too poor to buy the same thing to support them more if I had the money I would definitely do that.
Anyways song of the day is

Scene and Herd - Relient K
