Well yeah, that's sort of what I was getting at, aside from the fact that most people just don't bother.

Hi Kathy, welcome here. If ever you ever need any games, I probably might have a way to get them to you even if it's too big to download. ;)

Though quite a bit of you people know me, I suppose I might as well re-introduce myself, as I feel I have changed quite a bit since I last posted an introduction.
Well, 3 years will change a person, that's for sure.

My name's Sasha, I live in Canada.
I like computers, and computer games, but I'm not much of a gamer as it is...
I spend most of my time having a hectic life. School, outings, homework, music...It's crazy.
I spend my free time reading, chatting on the internet, taking artistic photos, hanging out with my friends, watching movies, listening to music...In the summer time, I like to go biking, rollerblading, skateboarding, and playing sports.
I have a dog and a cat, and they're sweet.
I've been playing the violin for nearly 10 years. Yeah, I'm still at it.
However, I'm not going to be taking lessons next year because I need more free time, more money, and less stress. I plan on replacing my lessons with a job.
I'm currently in grade 11 at my highschool, though the year is almost over. I'm going to be graduating with (roughly calculated) 39 credits. I will be receiving a performing and visual arts certificate, and a french diploma. Hoping that all my courses are placed into my timetable. (I hate the administration for screwing it up all the time.)
I'm currently part of my school's Major Production of the musical "Once Upon A Mattress" Which is a parody of the story of the Princess and the pea. Google it if you don't know what I'm talking about.
The story is actually pretty funny. My part is of a cameo named Lady Rowena. In a nut shell I get about 9 lines, I'm the "token-girl", and I'm the leader of the ladies in waiting. Woo (Sarcasm)
I do believe that that's enough, I don't feel like typing up anymore, and there's plenty already.
Have a good one peeps.

Check-Mate, you sound almost like a female version of me...... Almost.

Minus the music knowledge thing [I'm very music illiterate], the french diploma [though I know it well enough on my own], and replace grade 11 with grade 12, you almost got me!

Only instead of "Once Upon a Mattress" I'm in Wit. I also have about 9-12 lines.

Most common line as the technician: "Name."

At least it's easy. XD

Also: I haven't said this before, but your avatar freakin' rocks. *thumbs up*

I'm a smalltown guy!

Or, no, wait.... More of a Countryboy Computer nerd.

Though, don't expect much. Red Deer is smaller than St. Johns [I'm sure] so don't worry much about it, really, it's not like it's scary or anything! Edmonton is a little moreso, since it's a fast-moving town [agressive drivers]

Most of what I know on a detailed basis beyond National Geo comes from a fine PBS program called "Wings Over Canada". They fly small planes all over the country side checkin' the cool spots where the wonderful little resorts are. A bit geeky due to the aircraft but I always wanted to fly in more ultralights. (Closest thing to real wings.) Lotsa info on where to live or play cheep and away from the beaten track. At least in summer, looks very fun. :thumbsup:

Yes, if you know where to go, Canada has more attractions than you can shake a mech at.

I'm guilty: Maybe there should be a recommended Canada link so the intros won't get swamped out? B)

(Sorry to be obtuse: Since this is supposed to be the intro section, maybe we should note a better place for a Canada discussion as others have noted a tendency to drift off topic. And I'm guilty as any of the offense.)
