so i am in canada for the week attending school for the digital projectors that we are installing in our theaters. It feels good to be learning again. So there are 6 other people in the class with me. 4 of them are from Pittsburg (sucks for them with the loss last night), 1 is from chicago and the other is from Real-D in colorado. Tosay we were learning how not to hurt our selfs with the projector, how they are powered and about the encription of the movie. Tomorrw we are going to cover complete dissassembly and reassembly of the 230 which is the big boy in the christie lineup.
The drive to Kitchner was uneventful even with the snow and my rental car. I guess a rwd car and snow wasnt the best choise but this thing is deffintly a dougnut machine. I made the parking lot my play place last night. I could get used to this.
Canada is a fun place, Curling seems to be on tv every night.

Powder Days
This type of weather is what people who love winter dream about. Here in vermont we have been getting hit hard all day with nice dry soft powder. This winter has been declared my come back and the snow is starting to play along with my plans. This weekend my cousin and sister are coing up to learn how to ski at smuggs with me, The conditions are going to be great for learning.
Im hoping to get out to catamount tomorrow to hit up some fresh groomed cords, my goal is to get 15k in. I dont think I am up for the biathlon like I was hoping to, so Ill save that goal for next winter. I am using this as a warm up for the mountain bike season. I think I have convinced my self that I would l;ike a new bike for this season. My buddy ry who works at jamis bikes is going to hook me up with a deal on a new xtc4 and I will have one of the hottest rigs out on the trails. Im looking foward to getting back into riding. Ever since my dad died Ive had a hard time getting back on the bike but I think the time has come and I need to get back in the saddle. I dont think I want to race but I would like to figure out some sort of east coast epic ride and get some people to come along for the adventure. I would also like to get a few century rides under my belt this year.

Welcome to Twenty Eleven and a new begining
One of the things I wanted to do for this year was to keep a record of what I did. It seems like it happens more often than not that I dont remember what I actually do. Days seem to get lost in river of life, and I would like to have a way to remember what goes on. Alot of things have happened in my life both bad and good and alot of then should never be forgotten.
Purpose: This will be a spot where my life is recorded for the world to see. The opinions that will be expressed are solely mine and in no way are meant to offend any one. You can take what I write with a grain of salt and truthfully I dont care what most people think. Hate me or love me, I am who I am and I have no intention to change who I am to make some one view me differently. I want to use this space not only as a space to get out frustration but also share events, meal ideas, travel plans and pictures with every one to see. So if you think you want to know what it is like to live in my world then feel free to come along for the ride.
Info on the Author: I am 25 years old, male. Currently I live in Westford,VT with my girlfriend Jerris and her parents. We have a 15month old puppy named Isabella and the house also has 6 cats at the moment. When people ask me about my living situation the only way I can describe it is that it is like living in a sitcom. There is never a dull moment at the house. I am a recent transplant to Vermont moving from the Hudson valley of New York. I grew up in an area that we considered rural but since moving to Vermont I have realized that we were far from rural growing up. I have lived a very fortunate life, my parents were always able to support me and always encouraged me to do what ever would make me happy. I have nothing but absolute respect for my parents and I love them more than I could ever truly explain in words. I lost my father not to long ago after he had been fighting brain cancer for 13 years. There isnt a day that I dont miss him and think about him.
I am a college graduate from RIT and unfortunately I graduated at the worst time possible and finding a job was tough because not only was I interviewing with other college grads but also with people who had years of experience. SO I still havent found a job that would be in the conventional career path of a engineering grad but because of my girlfriend I was able to get a job working for her parents movie theater company. I am extremely happy with what I am doing because I came into the field during a major transitional period from film to digital. I am extremely grateful to her parents for giving me a chance. So here I am and this is me in a nut shell. As the year progresses you will find out more about me as I find out more about my self.
I am using 2011 as a stepping stone for the rest of my life. It is a rebirth of who I want to be mixed with some bits of being an adult mixed in along the way.
I hope who ever reads this enjoys. Thanks
Matt
