Introduction

  Hi my name is Nick Furlong and welcome to my blog!

  I grew up here in Newfoundland but moved around a lot as a child to places like Mount Pearl, Paradise, Torbay, and finally here in St. John's! The things I enjoy doing the most are hanging out with my friends, going out anywhere from just driving around to just enjoying a nice walk here and there, and I enjoy listening to most music from hip hop/ rap to a bit of country. I'm also a very big fan in sports, I have played Basketball ever since I could walk, even though I'm not the best it is still my favorite sport above all! I also used to play Soccer when I was a kid but those skills disappeared when I had quit at a young age. I picked up Rugby a couple years ago for fun and also volleyball last year with my friends for fun.

 All of my life as far back as I can remember I have always been surrounded by sports, and with playing sports there also comes the injuries. I have been around chiropractors, physiotherapists, etc. Last year I had both torn and flipped my meniscus which landed me in a lot of physio and finally surgery on my knee, along with even more physio. Being around all these appointments over the years and especially my most recent pretty much sparked my interest in pursuing my studies here at Memorial University. What I hope to accomplish is to get a bachelor in Kinesiology (co-op) and continue my studies so that I may pursue a career in Physiotherapy and specialize in sports injuries!

  Other than that, I'm pretty much an easy going guy always calm and relaxed but a bit shy at first. I hope this semester here and all the rest I plan on being in here at MUN go better than expected with all of its twists and turns.
