oh canada
I miss going down Yonge street with a large french vanilla from Tim Hortons.
I wanna go back already.
Maybe soon?
Maybe after the canucks come over?
Didnt i say? Canadians are coming to see me!!
/yay!
the passion that unites us all
Im obsessed. With hockey.
To the point that i dream about hockey and wanted to postpone my holidays for one extra day on the ice and maybe shorten them for another extra day, although its finally not gonna happen and im leaving tomorrow till sunday.
I watch games online and check scores and standings constantly on the NHL site and try on gloves and elbow pads and shoulder pads over and over again, and i visit online hockey stores looking for good deals on protections and bags, and i have plans to go to Barcelona next week to go to a hockey store. And Im always thinking about skating and i love my skates, and love my stick, and my shin guards and my maple leafs jersey, which i actually already loved.
The thing is that I love this. This new addiction of mine and all this passion i have for a sport that ive just started and im not even a little bit good at. I just dont mind. I'll eventually learn to skate well and play well, and it'll be more fun, if that's even possible.
But untill then, I'll keep practicing and enjoying every fall, without losing the motivation, cause its worth it.
Its making me happy.
pictures for journal
Some people asked me to write about what i did, what i saw and where i went during my stay in Canada, and so i started doing, but i lost the papers where i had written everything on and im too lazy to re wrtite it all over again.
So in compensation for this i, finally, uploaded pictures of the trip.
Not without buying a flickr pro account first cause apparently you can only have a limited number of pictures on the free account and i had exceeded it. Natural.
My apologies to those who wanted details of the trip and because of being too far away wont be able to get bored of my stories over a cup of coffee.
hockey
I started hockey last friday.
One thing i can tell you: i loved it.
One other thing i can tell you: i suck at it. I cant even skate good enough. But it was my first time ever with a stick and my first time on ice for years, so what could you expect.
Im happy. And im gonna learn.
More tomorrow.
(Big thank you to Al for letting me borrow his ice pants and helmet)
home is not where school is
Lately ive been spending more time at school than at home. 22 hours so far this week and its only Tuesday. It's tiring, but the effort will pay off. I hope.
And i've met more people and laughed more than the strictly necessary to make it out alive of classes like fundamentals of electronics and maths II, in this last one basically thanx to the quote:
- no, no nos hemos equivocado. te has equivocado tu! que los profesores son muy dados a decir: "NOS HEMOS equivocado" y "lo HE HECHO bien".
Anyway, im off to bed, see if i can get more than 5 hours of sleep tonight.
