Memories

Forever never seems to be around when it ends...

I'm so depressed today. Ugh! :'( Series is tied at 2 - 2. PBS really wants "The Team" to take it this year. We were just going over some names of people who may be leaving and stuff. Gawd, it's sad. It's sort of like Canadian Idol..well for me it is. I'm gonna admit, I never really paid much attention to the Giants last year and at the beginning of this year I didn't know much about them. I'm really glad PS brought me to all those games. I would have missed out on alot. To see each player fight for the win with all that determination is a sight to see on it's own. Not only did I get to watch some amazing games this year, but I got to watch them with PS. We followed Canadian Idol, the seasons over and it will never be the same. Hedley was our band, they will never be the same..ever. This year I've learned more about the Giants..more then I thought I would..and next year it'll be different. Yes we'll still have our Vancouver Giants but we're losing some unforgettable players. Savour these moments ladies...

One year passes and the years ahead can never contend.

Reason To Believe

Well well well..can a game get anymore exciting?! WOW..it was so intense. I was sooo nervous before the game and then I was a little down after the first but I sorta felt that if we gave up on them there was no chance so I didn't want to get to down. I tried to tell Post over and over that we were still in the game. I must say, they didn't put much pressure during the first but they came back and it was obvious who wanted it more in the end. It was an awesome comeback from 3 - 0 to a 4 - 3 win in game 3 over the Kelowna Rockets.

I'm so pumped for tonights game. Cutting out some of my "plans" just to come home and watch it..haha. I CAN'T WAIT! Less than and hour and a half to go..ahhhh! Better go eat and stuff before the game.

Motivation

I found some good quotes today so here are a few more. Let's call these quotes, along with the other one today, a motivational push.

The man who can drive himself further once the effort gets painful is the man who will win. - Roger Bannister

Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will. - Mahatma Gandhi

You can't hit a home run unless you step up to the plate. You can't catch fish unless you put your line in the water. You can't reach your goals if you don't try. - Kathy Seligman

Energy and persistence conquer all things. - Benjamin Franklin

Defeat is simply a signal to press onward. - Helen Keller

Game 3

Game 3 tonight. Can't wait. Sooooooo excited! I've got rugby in a couple hours and then PBS gets to go to the game. I can't believe I'm actually going though. I've waited so long to see a Kelowna and Giants game. The time has come and I really don't think it's hit me yet! Ahhh!! I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER! Bah!...goes the black sheep.

AHhhhhhhhhhhh!! :-D

"Having that trust in the guy you are sitting beside can take you a long way" - Chainy

Kllr's an ass.

Fight one more round. When your arms are so tired that you can hardly lift your hands to come on guard, fight one more round. When your nose is bleeding and your eyes are black and you are so tired that you wish your opponent would crack you one on the jaw and put you to sleep, fight one more round - remembering that the man who always fights one more round is never whipped. - James Corbett

Something To Be Proud About

I haven't posted in a really long time...minus that last short one. I'm going to forget about most of what has happened this month. I believe it is safe to say PBS has not had the greatest year. BS found some BS themselves when they begin losing respect for more people -03.16.05- ..repeat -2004-. PBS's team is keeping our spirits up. We've got tickets for Game 6 of Round 1 on April 2nd, but because the series may be over by then we're a little skeptical whether or not we'll get to see them play. Lucky Shit gets to go to Game 3 tomorrow night. Buttttt now PWam and I may be going depending on the seating situation. We want to get decent seats if we are going to go. I'm anxiously waiting here to get a call from Peanut. Meanwhile...I must say Kllr is quite something. I would say I'm afraid of dying but I have motives pushing me to believe that such a thing won't happen..ie. p..ch. Gwad, give me a break! All I have to say is typical guy with definite tempting connections. Post just called, we're going! Not the greatest seats but hey I don't really care. I want to go soooo bad! Section 24 Row 12 I believe? The series is tied and the games have been intense. We're gonna be on the edges of our seats the whole game. Ah I can't wait..but now I must ask Scriptum for a favour...can we catch a ride off you? I must say PBS is ending this month on a decent note.

After wandering through the entire Western Hockey League season searching for an identity as if it were a grail, the Giants experienced an epiphany on Easter weekend.
They discovered themselves.
They Giants can be a fierce team which matches its talent with effort, which can play with as much resolve and confidence as flaire.

"We showed character"
"It would be hard to say we're not disappointed, but we've come a long way. These last two games, we've come so far."
- G-Dawg

A leader is a dealer in hope.

PostScriptum: Post of PostScriptum, I've confirmed our ride. Thanks Scriptum.

GL - IB, Kllr, and the rest of "The Team".

The Team

They dominate the ice
Taking their opponents left and right
Checking, passing, shooting so precise
They won’t go down without a fight

At home hear the crowd roar
As the game becomes intense
Their screaming and shouting for more
Standing on their feet with emotion so immense

The radio blares
As the fans listen to the game
Wishing they were there
To see their team claim

Each player shows their passion
Each player plays their role
Each player works together with determination
They are a team, and they work as a whole




This is unfinished poem written for the team
...our team. Some of my thoughts after hearing PostScriptum may be able to go to Kelowna after all. I really hope you girls get to. This year is your year ladies..next year it's our year.

Most of my Giants pictures are posted here...

Life Over Money

Alright...so I haven't posted in...ahh 6 days! This shall be semi-long.

Actually because I can't remember anything that happened before Thurday I'm gonna start there. So Thursday at 4 we had our first rugby game/scrimmage with our new team. I admit I got really frustrated and I probably pissed alot of people off. I need to learn how to cool down and not yell cause everyone's (most people) are still learning how to play their position and they are still learning the rules. Ugherz...this team is gonna take some getting use to after the two years we had with the experienced players. I'm just gonna say that commitment is key. Oh, so we ended up getting our asses kicked by Centennial.

Friday...oh friday.

Alright so that's where my post ended 4 days ago..and I think it's about time I finish it.

So last Friday was fun. I had a ringette practice and Shit and I rushed home so we could make it to the Express game on time. We went and watch Thessien and Rutherford score their goals on Wyatt Russell. I like PWam's saying..."A former Giant..and a future Giant". The game went into double overtime and PBS cheered on Surrey til' the end...pissing Shirley off in the process. Good times listenin' to the Giants games and cheering..when nothing was going on in the game that we were at. Oh oh, did I mention I met Kurt Russell & Goldie Hawn? lol, just kidding. But we definitly did see them..Kurt was cheering like crazy for Wyatt and Goldie was dancing around with her hideous jacket. Ahh...so then we came to my house and ate food then we went skating with my "brownie" group. It was alright. Sooo that was a good night with PostScriptum and Shirley. Yah...had a ringette exhibition game and won..I think. Ugh, I can't remember anything. Monday, rugby...lotsa people showed up which was good. Tuesday, work...oh my...I have to make report cards this weekend. How am I suppose to fail little kids. Uggh! So..I believe it was Tuesday that I heard the good news relating to the Ex-Hedleyers...wait nope, PWam's posted it on Monday. Kevin G., Ryan, and Brandon created a new band and named themselves...Mister White. Um..yap, can't wait to hear their stuff...they've gotta start from scratch so it may be a while. I'm so happy their doing this! And now to Thursday...TODAY! Yaya I'm all caught up..almost. So this morning we had our first Provincial game for ringette against Burnaby. We we're tied with them til' a minute left in the 2nd and we lost it. Um...I have a rugby game soon. Not looking forward to it...I think I shall keep my thoughts in this time. And our second ringette game is at 7:15 tomorrow morning against Delta...which means I'll be leaving home around 5:15 am! Ugh! We have another game at 11:00 against Westside. OH OH, I got our playoff tickets for the Giants third game in round 1 on April 2nd...Can't wait! Haven't been to one in a very long time.

On another note. Sidney Who? has signed a contract with Rebok, if you have not heard. GRRR! That's all I can say. Oh welllll...he said..."Money's not going to change me/who I' am"...I don't remember the exact quote. But all I can say is that no, it's not going to change who he is but it will only increase his cockyness. This kid has not played ONE NHL game..and he's already a millionare!...And as Shit pointed out to me..he hasn't even played in a Top Prospects game. AHH!

Oh, thanks Peanut for adding the LiveStrong graphics to my stuff.

Losing a hand full of money..is not worth losing everything.

Pam's too cool.

PAMMM HERE! I HACKED ON TO HER ACCOUNT..nah just kidding.
Do you like it Bkins? If not I can easily change it back.
Not too sure that I like it being so plain white in the middle & bright on the outside..but I dunno, that's for you to decide. Maybe I can fix it wen I'm not so tired. & It was the only livestrong I could find.
WEAAAAAAAARRRRRR YELLOW!

A New Month

It's March first...and PBS was hoping we'd get out of the never ending shittiness. Well let's see...Peanut and I over exposed our Contact Sheets for photography...oh what only 4 times! We suck at this..maybe we should do our other subjects homework before we come to photography so we can try and pay attention. But yeah, we actually got our first prints done...they look amazing...2 of the maybe four that actaully worked..lol. Ahh...well today sucks thus far...sick like....like...I don't know but I just wanna go to sleep. I'm so freakin' busy today........school, make lesson plan for work (which I'm doing right now), go to work, ringette practice right after work, come home for 5 minutes and go curling. Curling should be fun...but I'm not running on much sleep. Well anyway...Peanut got a hold of the Province newpaper today, and there was a whole freakin page (big article) on Thessien...who woulda known this no goalie ordeal would turn out so great for him. He's definitly making up for some of his experiences with the Giants...lol... And yesh...picking up groceries Shit; Peanut was there when I was talking about my lesson plans and I mentioned I might play this game where they have to pick up groceries..so that's where that came from lol. Friday should be fun..looks like I can go to the game. Ooohhh, PWam...such an odd Peanut...weirdest dreams.......


It's your imagination that creates those dreams.

I hope this song starts a craze.
The kind of song that ignites the airwaves.

damn__Xlayouts' tommy gun doesnt believe you.
