Giving the very fucked up priorities I have, I headed out to the RIT hockey game around 5:15 with about 100 words of my paper written(I had my sources sorted, at least).
The game: Hello totally nerve-wracking hockey game. I kind of expected you, given our history with AIC, but damn. They scored first, we responded on a PP goal a little later. We ended the period with another goal, so we were feeling good with the 2-1 lead. We were playing all kinds of shitastic though. Into the second, AIC tied the score about 7 minutes in. The rest of the period remains scoreless. Onto the 3rd. Oh, the third. AIC scores at 4:04, making the Corner Crew not very happy at all. Cue 12 minutes of suck, until we finally get a goal at 16:17 on the powerplay. We get another power play with around 2 minutes to go, and Brenner made a BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL goal <3 Of course AIC pulls their goalie, and we get an empty netter to end with a win at 5-3. The score is definitely not reflective of the heart attack the Tigers gave me tonight. By all accounts AIC probably should have won, they were looking pretty good and we were passing and skating like shit. It's our 8th win in a row however, and placed us in a tie with Air Force. They were playing Canisius at home in Colorado, so we wouldn't know the results of that game til later.
Ran back home to finish up my paper around 9:30. Paaainful. I ended up throwing on the Air Force game for background noise as I typed. When I tuned in it was the end of the 1st, and Air Force was leading 2-0. *sigh* so I turned it down if favor of some good writing music. When I checked back it was the end of the 2nd, and the score was 3-2 Air Force. Now I hate Canisius more than anything in the world[I'd go so far to say even more than Gwack XD], but if they came out with the win, that means we get to keep our tie with Air Force for 1st. So I grudgingly started cheering for those evil bastards. More writing, and then the 3rd period. Air Force gets another goal, making it 4-2. The rest of the third was interesting. To illustrate my feelings, here is my conversation with Katie[who doesn't care about hockey, lulz]:
(11:13:47 PM) Me: yess penalty
(11:13:53 PM) Me: score canisius, SCORE
(11:13:55 PM) Me: >:O
(11:14:14 PM) Me: if RIT can come from behind, you can too. Even though Air Force owns your soul. And you suck really bad. and I hate you.
(11:14:57 PM) Katie: whatever
(11:15:26 PM) Me: lol they're on the power play and Air Force is out shooting them. depressing.
(11:15:35 PM) Me: GOAL
(11:15:36 PM) Me: YESS.
(11:15:45 PM) Me: one moar plz
(11:17:10 PM) Me: TIED 4-4
(11:17:12 PM) Me: FUCK YES
(11:17:23 PM) Me: HOLY CRAP
(11:17:24 PM) Me: YESSS
(11:17:47 PM) Me: so.
(11:17:49 PM) Me: I love you.
(11:18:25 PM) Me: 5-4 LEAD
(11:18:47 PM) Katie: um.
(11:18:51 PM) Katie: i love you, too?
(11:20:22 PM) Me: Canisius just scored 3 goals in 1:07.
(11:20:31 PM) Me: :D :D :D
(11:24:39 PM) Me: YESSSSS
(11:24:43 PM) Me: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The last two were after the win :P Oh how the mighty have fallen. They went from a 14-game winning streak to losing 5 of their last 8 games[and tying one] Suck it, Air Force! Of course we're two games ahead of them, but if Canisius can at least snag one point off the Falcons tomorrow with a tie and RIT can pull out the win, we will be in a very good position. Hee!
So yeah, my paper. Umm it went alright? I was about 300 words off the total I was supposed to have. OH WELL, DON'T CARE. My apathy towards my schoolwork has become ridiculously bad this year. I can has graduation nao plz?
