Unpacking My Waterloo Life
that's a tough cookie to do. i've been back since Tuesday afternoon, & my room is still a mess. then again, i haven't really tried hard in unpacking the room. i haven't actually just devoted time to just unpacking my room. heck i could even be unpacking my room as i write this, but i just don't want to. i have a whole lifetime to unpack my room. a lifetime.
YES! Montreal just SCORED! yes, i'm watching Game One of the Carolina Hurricanes & Montreal Canadiens series. they just took a 2-1 lead in 16.17 of the 1st period! WOOT! GO HABS GO!
anyway. so, a couple quick opinions of things that have been happening in the NHL. first & foremost, for all you Toronto fans, i'm sure you've heard that Pat Quinn got fired. in my opinion, i think that was a bad move on the Leafs part. i think that John Ferguson Jr. should've been fired & here's my reasoning. Pat Quinn, i thought did an excellent job with the team he had, & the team he had wasn't a good one to start off with. even at the end of the season, they had to start using young players from the minors to win games 'cuz the old fogey's couldn't do jack. the Leafs did go on a run & make the chase for the final playoff spots interesting. just the 2 games against Montreal where they got pummelled was the turning point. that's where they lost their playoff spot.
anyway, Ferguson should've been the one that got the hook because he didn't do anything to help improve the team in the offseason (ok maybe he did with some signings). at the trade deadline, i didn't understand the moves he made. did he make a move for the sake of making a move? like, why did we trade for Luke Richardson? we will never know. in the offseason, Ferguson signed the likes of Jeff O'Neill (who's past his prime), Eric Lindros, & Jason Allison, both whom are walking glass men (one hit in the head, & they're done). Lindros actually missed a huge portion of the season with an injury to his wrist (at least he didn't bump his head). Allison did alright i suppose, but he's so SLOW! O'Neill was a HUGE disappointment.
i think for the future, the Leafs need to get younger, let the young guys play, maybe sign an established goaltender, & 1-2 elite forwards so that Sundin actually has someone decent to play with. but that's all pending if the Leafs have the money to spend.
then again, i don't really care about the Leafs. GO HABS! GO AVS!
COACH'S CORNER IS ON! break time.
ok lesson Don Cherry taught. if you're gonna block shots in hockey, your heart better be in it, or else don't do it! if you're gonna block shots, when you go down, TURN YOUR HEAD! you don't want the puck in your face do ya? :)
ok back to the entry. ok i already talked about Quinn. actually i think that's all i really wanted to say about that. hockey playoffs has started, & it's exciting already. 2 overtime games already (Wings/Oilers in 2OT, & Flames/Ducks). saw portions of these games over at Vince's last night.
so yeah, unpacking sucks asssssssss.
as a result of packing & unpacking, you tend to find things that you've forgotten you had. i found this piece of paper i complied back in 1st year that was suppose to go into the V1 N5 Yearbook. i'll put down some tidbits from it.
so anyway..i kinda lost my train of thought 'cuz i had to restart my computer & then i watched the rest of the Habs/Canes game. WOOT! Habs won 6-1!
well time to keep on unpacking my room, my life, my thoughts, my mind.
post seemed a little disoriented..at least to me anyway.

Here are some funny quotes I've come across:now i remember someone asking me about what kinda mutant i would be if i could be a mutant. well, this little piece of paper also answers that question. although i think i came up with a better one a couple years later. yes, i'm a dork.
"Success if like a fart - you can only stand your own." ~Anonymous
"If you take life too seriously you won't get to laugh along with everybody else when you fail." ~Anonymous
"There are no stupid questions, just stupid people asking questions." ~Anonymous
"People who don't think probably don't have brains; rather, they have grey fluff that's blown into their heads by mistake." ~Pooh's Little Instruction Book
"You know when you're young, you think your dad's Superman. Then you grow up and you realized he's just a regular guy who wears a cape." ~Dave Atell
"Love your enemies just in case your friends turn out to be a bunch of bastards." ~Anonymous
"Laugh alone and the world thinks you're an idiot." ~Anonymous
If I were a mutant, I would have these powers:in short, i would possess the powers of Wolverine, Professor X, & Gambit all into one. man that would be SICK! i wouldn't want to mess with me!
I would possess a pair of retractable claws that are found in my forearms. I would be able to release these razor sharp claws through my skin between the knuckles on each hand at will. These special adamantium clasws can penetrate anything. Moreover, I would also have an accelerated healing factor based on my physiology. These means that when most nomrla humans heal injuries over a long period fo time, I'm able to 10 times faster than the natural process. Thelepathy is another mustant power I would be able to control. THes power enables me to read minds, and project my thoughts into others' minds, and stun the minds of others with these 'mental bolts'. Lastly, I am also able to transform an object's potential engergy into kinetic energy through physical contat. I can then use the kinetically charged object as an exploding projectile.
so anyway..i kinda lost my train of thought 'cuz i had to restart my computer & then i watched the rest of the Habs/Canes game. WOOT! Habs won 6-1!
well time to keep on unpacking my room, my life, my thoughts, my mind.
