Hi....my name is Braydon.
Now that the pleasantries are out of the way... This is my first ever blog on this website and I have no idea what it is that am going to do with this small piece of land on the information superweb. Whatever comes of this I think that the first post should be a bit about me and then I guess we will just take it from there.
The first impression most people have of me...I'm tall. But not THAT tall, I'm only like 6'6. Sometimes people think I'm angry, I'm not that angry. I'm probably the most easy going guy in the world. I do like to rant about stuff though and I'm sure I will use this space to rant about things in life that puzzle me (just wait for my upcoming 3000 word essay about how much I hate the word "staycation").
I have lived in Lethbridge, AB, Canada for all but 4 months of my life. During these four months I moved to Edmonton and came to realize that for as much as I wanted to get out of Lethbridge, it's home and it makes me happy. So after a failed move, I came back to Lethbridge, where I currently reside.
I am a sports nut...I live and die with the New England Patriots and Calgary Flames. I'm currently pursuing a career in sports management or sports marketing but am finding it to be a tough industry to crack and everyone wants someone with experience. To get this experience, I work part time with the University of Lethbridge Pronghorns Athletic Department. Great job..but it's tough to pay back $20,000 in student loans when you work 16 hours a week for 4 months a year. So my main source of income right now is working at a sporting goods store. Good guys, good laughs but man is it ever feel like you're working a dead end job (it is..trust me).
So that is all I want to get into right now and I guess the last thing I want to cover is "why?" Well I guess the main reason is that I like to write and in my current state of employment I don't get to just put my head down and hammer out a thought or two. Maybe I'll find a groove and this thing will be really enjoyable for the 8 of you out there for you to read or maybe (and most likely) I do one or two posts and then put this thing to bed forever.
So there it is, my first entry. One of these days I'll actually think of something to riff about and we can get this going properly.
Until then....
