Introduction To Me

If it is not obvious enough already, my name is Cody Millian. I am an academic student, athlete, musician, and a cook. In school I spend most of my time being annoyed with the fact that I have to be there. Fortunately, this semester I have English, which is my favourite subject in school. English is one of the very few classes I actually enjoy. In the past I have gotten good marks in English, but I know it is going to be much harder to do so in ENG3U. 

My hobbies consist of many sports and activities. I mainly play volleyball, baseball, and basketball. I work out at East End gym in Goderich every day, and have done so for 2 years now. I have just started boxing four days a week with the Lakeview Boxing Club underneath the East End gym. In the summer, when I'm not playing baseball, I ride my dirt bikes very often. Dirt biking is another one of my favourite hobbies. I am also very interested in music, so I have started learning to play the guitar. 

Besides English, I have a large interest in Biology and Law - two very different things, I know. These are the two fields of work I am most interested in for my future. I have narrowed my interests down to these two, but haven't been able to decide what exactly I want to do with my life. I will always workout and have a planned diet, because I have dedicated myself to my health, but I can't decide which career I want to pursue. 

I live on a farm near Carlow, where we have around 300 sheep. Our home farm is 280 acres, but we farm nearly 1800 acres across Colborne and Ashfield Township. Farming provides some work for me, but not enough to provide me with a consistent cash flow. The solution to this was to get a job outside of the farm. I have worked for the Goderich Grill and Bar since October 16th, 2011 (yes, for some odd reason I remember that). I work there as a line cook, making minimum wage, but mainly just learning how to be a good cook. Someday when I'm living on my own, all that cooking might pay off. 

That's just a little bit of information about me, hopefully I am no longer a stranger.
