Long Time No Post

OH MY GOSH!
I feel terrible that I haven't been posting as recently as I did in the summer! I'm in the middle of midterms right now so I don't really have much time to update this thing!!
Stats and Orgo: 6; sleep: 1
I am so sleep deprived it isn't even funny.
Anyways back to my point
Since my last midterm is October 30th (yeah what fuckers decided to put my chem midterm on a Saturday?) so I probably won't be updating this until Sunday.
I PROMISE to come out with a SUPERDUPERFANTASTIC post!!!
much love everyone!! and again i'm sorry!! :( here's something that hopefully will make up for it:

Just look at those eyes....oh man

a win at home

PENS WON IN OVERTIME. not the win i WANTED (c'mon those two goals shouldn't have happened...plus letang SHOUD NOT have been kicked out!!!!!) but still a win at home, i suppose.
since they FINALLY won at home, i think I should share this beauty with all of you:

i'm really digging his sweater. oh, and his facial expression is just priceless.
well done, sid. well done.

more to come

em-bear-ass-ing

ugh.
it is so unfortunate that the Penguins have not won a single regulation home game. I'm hoping they get use to the Consol Centre (which, might I add, has an AMAZING PLAYER'S LOUNGE omfg) as soon as possible. because, my friends, I will not write a post for this blog until the Penguins win a game at home.

see you all on the 29th of october

NINE reasons why I love him:

1. He grew a mullet during the playoffs last year (which, might I add, was reaaaaalllyy sexy) 
2. He's really gifted (if you know what I mean)

3. He's a cheap bastard:he assaulted a cab driver because he didn't have proper change to give back (the ride was $13.80 and Kane gave him $15.00)...he DID have a sexy mugshot, though (to the left)

SIX reasons why I love him:

2. He's hilarious! I don't know about you guys, but I found him funny in the 2010 NHL Awards video with his teammate Bobby Ryan:

Ryan: Dude, are you using my medal as a coaster?

Getzlaf: Oh, is this your medal? Sorry I didn't recognize it it wasn't gold.



3. Led the Ducks in scoring during the Playoffs the year they won the Stanley Cup (2007)
