I got robbed last night...
Some shit head wedged opent he bottom of my locked locker at hockey and took $10, my citicard and my bank card... i already cancelled everything, but man what a pain in the ass....
I've been working really hard at hockey lately. I've made it ym goal to join the Div. III hockey team next year here at fredonia. I'm not sure ill make it, after all my experience in net on ice is almost laughable. The thing is it's getting to a point now in practice that I don't give up goals. If I do they are perfect deflections or great moves on break-a-ways, but i rarely let people score on those. I get better and better and better every single time I play.
The one thing I fear is that I'm in over my head, and the only reason i'd think that is because of the people around me. It's not everyday that someone like me, a very average roller hockey goalie and a green (inexperienced) ice goalie, makes such a bold statement. It makes me wonder if I can do it, simply because there are so many people I can think of that never made it to that level who have always been better then me. It's intimmidating to know that if I do make the team, I will be playing at a level higher then Dave Chrostowski, higher then Steve, and higher then some of my former teammate on roller (ie Gettings). Steve of course got there, and got screwed which pains me to know seeing he's the best all around hockey player I've ever been face to face with. Honestly he'd be the only person in the entire world I'd fear on a break away... anyone else can go directly to hell because as far as I'm concerned anyone else can't score on me lol. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm affraid that people like Steve will think I'm in over my head and think I have no chance. I really believe I do have a chance, and by the time next fall comes around, I do believe I will be suprising a lot of people. Hey, I wouldn't be looking at new equipment that costs a total of around $1300 if I wasn't serious. ALl I can tell anyone is if you've ever seen me play roller or floor hockey, but never seen me play ice, then you ahe no clue as to how absolutely different I am on ice, and how much better I actually play.
Aside from the hockey stuff... i be chillin lately. I really really hate school... not dorming, just classes. I'm so sick of this bs. I have a lot of trouble taking more then 12 credit hours for some reason, i get lost in the shit i have to do and stuff gets left behind. I've been thinking about dropping another class as aresult, which slows me down but helps me out. I've been having a lot of fun too. I lost 20 pounds, and have gained a lot of muscle, and as a result girls seem to be pciking there heads up toward me which is a great feeling and a huge esteem booster.
Renee and I are doing well.. she got rejected from Spaulding, which means she won't nesseccarily be leaving me for 5 years now. She has to take a year off of school to do more research on graduate schools, whhc is good seeing everything was so rushed in the fall and I don't think she got to investigate her options as much as she really wanted to. So overall this is a positive thing, just a bump in the road. Her parents are seriously talkng about moving to Florida, whihc is fine seeing I'm looking to be there eventually anyway, but if that happens is yet to be seen. Chances are she wopuld go with them, but that's a while away in all likely hood, so i'll worry about that later.
one final note i had my first report on the radio i fredonia the other day. I did a 6 minute spot on the Buffalo Autoshow, reported on some cars, gave some advice, i thought it went over well. It took me forever to mix it and edit it though, as i spend tuesday nigth, wednesday night, and thurday morning and afternoon in the studio. It's fun though, I enjoy it.
