100 Things

My friend Kirsi used to have a blog before people called them blogs. I think it was called an online journal or Web journal or something like that.

Anyhow, now she has a young child and isn’t writing on the Web a whole lot.

At one point she had a post called 100 things and it was 100 things about her. I always liked that so I’ve decided to do my own 100 things over the next year or so and I’m going to break it up into two categories: 100 Things for people who know me and 100 Things for people who don’t know me that well. I’ll divide the posts into 10 things at a time.

This will give me lots of editorial content for those weeks when I’m lacking for content.

So – Part 1. 100 Things (for people who don’t know me that well).

  • I love love love chocolate milk
  • I grew up in Scarborough, Canada and truly love it here
  • If I won $1 million dollars I would invest it in real estate and keep my awesome job
  • If I won $5 million dollars I would invest it in real estate and keep my awesome job and put in place my five year exit strategy for retirement
  • I got kicked out of my house when I was 20 and in college (my parents and I get along really well now)
  • I have never taken a controlled substance – not even pot
  • Self-control plays a big part in me not stopping for every Dairy Queen (for a blizzard), Wendy’s (for a Baconator … did you know for $.30 you can get extra bacon?) or any convenience store for a butter tart
  • One of my best friends I have known since grade three
  • I’ve traveled through Scotland, England, France and Ireland on my own
  • My first car was a 2001 Hyundai Tiburon that I miss very much despite it only having 140 horsepower

Okay, so there you have Part 1 for those of you who don’t know me that well. Tomorrow I’ll post Part 1 for those who do know me really well.

About Mathieu

The problem is I have a few too many interests. Yeah I love tech stuff, but I also love driving cars and then there's the woodworking and not the least of which is the learning thing. So for now I'm collecting them all in one place and this is that place.
