Reborn

So... I went to an Oilers game tonight. It was a blast! I haven't been to one since the lockout and tonight was the first time for me seeing the shootout live since it got put into the new NHL. I must say that the Oilers are going to be epic this year. Who cares if it is only preseason right now, you can still feel the hype and intensity from these players fighting for a roster spot (even though only Schremp or Brule is gonna get it). You can tell these prospects are definitely trying to make it hard for MacT and company to send them down to Springfield, and I'm glad they're making their presence known. Gagner, where do I even start with him. This guy, is ONE year older than I am and he will make more money this year than I will for the next 20 years. He is honestly incredible for one 19 year old kid. Soon, he's going to take over our team, take over Horcoff, take over the captain position. I also really like Nilsson. He's definitely becoming who he should've been with the Islanders.

Okay, outside of how good the Oilers are going to do this year, it was my first game in a long time. Even though just a preseason game, I had lots of fun and we(me and brother) had great seats. Gagner alone tonight may have made my day. Brule also impressed me with his grit and Smiders for his passion. You've gotta love that guy. It's just too bad I didn't get to see Souray's shot, Lubo, and the top line. But I'll get to see them on TV during the regular season! So this was definitely a renewed experience for me to be able to watch hockey live again. Imagine Rexall during playoffs, haha.

A little off topic, I think the next few weeks, more specifically Octover, will be a very interesting month for me. From where I stand now, I can just see my schedule pile up with exams and stuff like that. Outside of just school, there's some other things that cannot be mentioned here that may also be influential to me and my life. It's amazing at how little worry I seem to have towards all this. Here I go again praising God, but it's a good thing. For anyone, especially in uni, that feel pressured or stressed about exams and stuff, try looking at it this way: I feel that it is a blessing from God that I am able to see these challenges ahead of me and to know that He is with me throughout the entire way. Which means that there's no need to worry our lives away. God makes life so much easier just by acknowledging his prescence in our lives and putting any sort of faith in Him. Kind of like seeing Gagner bring the Oilers to life this year. Honestly, I think at this point of my life, God has such a big affect on me that it bleeds out of me and ends up in places like my blogs and whatever else comes up. This is why you kind of see me mentioning something about Him in all my blog entries; I just can't keep it inside, you know (=

So um, kind of late now, and tired from the hockey game. If I don't write within the next couple weeks, it will likely be because a miracle happened and that I actually put myself to studying for exams and doing homework.

Here's to an awesome year for our Edmonton Oilers =D

Oh, did I mention how good Gagner is?
