New feature..

This morning I added a new feature to my blog page. If you scroll down underneath all my links at the bottom is a player search from Hockey database. It's a wicked tool, which i use a lot for my scouting work. Any hockey player, major junior, NCAA, AHL, ECHL, UHL, NHL (ya get the idea)...you'll find their career stats on that site. I know some of you won't use it but it's a cool feature anyways. Hey if I ever mention some random hockey player I know on one of my posts, now you can look them up LOL.

This is to my girl

Hangovers suck! But the memories of the night before usually make it worth the headches and droziness. Last night I partied wit my girl Christina, it was her birthday. We spent way too long on the bus getting downtown but evenutally got to the Mercury. Drinking from 10pm to like after 3am, including two different bars you can bet i have some funny stories...Ryan and John..HAHAHA oh and I must mention to my girlz out there reading this that you missed out on Bodnarchuk Power!!! Christina and I have Andy power backing us up !!! =P Anyways this is my shout out to my girl Christina, her Justin and Kevin craziness, our calls to our boys at 1am and my insaness for Ben and J-F. HAHAHA
I'm out, love ya girl!

State of Happiness

It was 6:03pm, I had left work only 5 minutes earlier but already had forgotten anything that had happened there. At that moment i stepped into the Halifax Fourm. Pre-season was just under an hour away for my hometown Mooseheads and the smell of a new hockey season was in the air. There is love for the game and then there is what myself and about 20 others have. Of those 20 about a dozen of them are season ticket holders for the bottom of section 14 at the Metro Center. Yes, we have our own little group LOL. Last night was a reunion of sorts. After 3 months of summer and hockey break last night we all gathered at the old Fourm to cheer on the youngsters on the ice. Some of which won't in the end even make the team. For now all are Mooseheads though and recieve the same amount of support as a 4 year vet. We sat in the uncomfortable, too small seats and we acted as though it was a Game 7 in the final, yelling, cheering, getting upset at times when certain players *cough cough LOMANNO cough cough* had a bad shift. I'm pretty sure the ref (who knows me well and not in a good way) woke up this morning took some tylynol and starting sending out warning emails to the other refs in the league with pictures of myself and Nathan included with a headline reading 'NOOO THEY ARE BACK!!!' HAHA. I know I'm not the only one with a sore throat this morning but just can't wait til next tuesday for the next home game. Just a few days ago i was feeling insanely burnt out and thankfully hockey is back to help ease the load. Nothing relaxes me or makes me happy like a good game of hockey. I know not everyone understands that and honestly i can't even explain it. I'm lucky I have my 'group' at the rink, means i'm not alone in my craziness. Anyways must get ready for work everyone.
XOXO

oh and by the way the Herd won in a shootout 5-4.....Yeti! Yeti! Yeti!

Burn out at 21?

Is it possible at 21 to burn yourself out? I mean aren't we suppose to have endless energy and such? Working 2 jobs has never been so tiring. I've been pulling off this scouting at night and working (insert random min. wage job here) during the day for years. Lately it's been getting to me though. Trying to get in extra hours at the center (2pm-1am) and basicly working 2 different scouting services is turning out to be a tad bit harder then i orginally thought. I do apologize for the month long delay in updating here but ask anyone who lives in the house I'm either at work, working at home on the laptop or once in a while i even sleep. I love scouting, i do and i never want it to feel like a job but working til 5 or 6 in the morning and having to be at the center for 2 in the afternoon, doesnt help to make anything fun. I try not to act over tired and cranky but i'm sure some people have noticed (expect maybe the cute guy at work, and only cuz i instantly cheer up by talking to him LOL). Pre-season in the Q started tonight and the Mooseheads training camps starts on friday so I should fall into a better routine in the next couple of weeks. Sept 25th starts my day shift at the center so that'll be good. Mon-Fri 9-5. Everything will eventually fall in place, i hope anyways. Other then work theres been a lot of other things going on too. Everyone basicly knows about our 'maybe' moving, thats been a mix of feelings in general. then of course theres the usual money stuff, ya know the LACKING of it, but thats just a part of life. I'm not so comfortable talking my love life on here because well most who read this are family and honestly that's just uncomfortable. It's not so exciting anyways everytime I've met a good guy in the past couple of months or dated a guy, a certain blast from the past finds his way back into my life. Even the smallest part of involovment messes with my head. He's a hard habit to break and part of me doesn't even want to i guess. So yea that's whats been keeping me from updating i'm sorry guys, really i am. I'll try and update some more as work in both places starts to calm down.
