Who is Bored?
A quiet lurker who lives in the shawdows of CompSci.ca hiding the glory of his vast knowledge of the ins and outs of Turing. Bored is a member of CompSci.ca who like many members started out as an avid contributer, but slowly faded away from the site. But unlike the rest Bored returned to fade away again, only to return and fade away many more times. His knowledge of turing has grown over the short time he has undertaken it and the comfort he feels with it mixed in with the procrastination, the inability to complete project's and his plain distaste for effort and work has kept him from all but dipping his toe into any other languages. He is also a irregular member of the IRC Channel, and has a distaste for the Name-switching game as it's throws his mind into a state of confussion.
Why The Heck Bored?
Well you see curious compadre, there was a time when Bored loved to play Unreal Tournament online but back then he was not know as Bored but by a dull tastless name that has been lost with the sands of time. Then one day bored as usual he began to see the error of his ways and decided to better show himself to the online world. he began a quest for the ultimate name, and after failing due to the amount of effort it required he settled on naming himself after the way he felt at the moment. And thus Bored was introduced to the online world.
*Note: He is also know as Canadian Ehhh when he is dealing with matters relating to XBOX and Live as his gamertags are Canadian Ehhh and Canadian Ehhh2.
Education and Programming Experience
Bored is currently a grade 11 student attending Holy Cross Catholic Secondary School. He has been programming since his first semester in Grade 10 and has overall taken 2 programming courses. He has a vast knowledge of the programming language Turing, as that is what he learnt in school and has never but dipped his toe into the likes of other languages. even though he has only dipped his toe he has dipped it in many places including Python, QBASIC (eeeewwwwww....), C++, C, HTML, JavaScript, Java, Ruby and a few others. He is currently trying to learn Ruby due to the hype, the ease, and the desire to learn something new but has recently heard the first admitances of flaws within the language.
A Little About Bored
Bored is a real person who lives in a house somwhere, though I can name a few who would not beleive such nonsense. He enjoys many things about computers such as Computer science, gaming, and the internet, but also enjoys things outside his front door such as snowboarding, hockey, hiking, canoeing, cadets, etc. He likes long walks on the beach.....ummm....you never heard that. he also enjoys music, more specificly Punk, with some of his favouritest bands being NOFX, Pennywise, Bad Religion, The Matches, Death By Stereo, Millencolin, From First to Last, and many other that have slipped my mind. Oh yes he is lazy thus he is a Windows user and faces the critisism constantly.
