about shabbs

where did it all start? well, i suspect it all begain at carleton university. i was doing my undergraduate degree in civil engineering and at the time, my favourite phrase was "not too shabby". everything was "not too shabby" and people just started calling me shabby. eventually it transformed into shabbs, and that has stuck ever since. i think some people don't even know my real name since i'm always introduced as 'shabby' or 'shabbs'.

i'm now living in toronto and loving it. i've been here almost 3 years. toronto is a huge city and it has a ton of stuff to offer. it also has a ton of traffic and everything is a little more expensive. i used to live in ottawa so that was quite a change of scene.

some vital statistics: favourite colour: blue; favourite number: 5; favourite food: steak; favourite drink: beer; favourite wine: cabernet franc or a shiraz; three tattoo's; two piercings; a geek on the inside, a rugby player on the outside.

not too shabby eh?


definition?

what is a shabbs? by definition, the term shabby means "showing signs of wear and tear". i guess that could be said about me, especially after 13 years of rugby, 2 broken noses, one broken collar bone, one sprained mcl and many many many nicks, cuts, bruises, muscle pulls...
