My first love has always been music. I have been involved in or with music since I was five. I have sung in choirs, played the piano in numerous situations, and dabbled with the clarinet and saxaphone in high school.
I consider myself to be a huge hockey fan. I love watching the games, especially when my hometown Medicine Hat Tigers are playing!
Me, The Hockey Fan
Why I’m a hockey fan:
The expectation of a great game ahead,
The drop of the puck at centre ice.
The thrill of an odd man rush,
The slick moves that players employ.
The exhilaration of a player on a breakaway,
One-on-one with the goaltender.
The sight of talented players displaying their moves,
Dekeing out the opposing defenseman.
The excitement of a team on a successful power-play,
Sending a flurry of pucks at the net.
The anticipation of a goal,
The endless nail biting moments.
The bone-crushing body checks,
The building of emotion in the game..
The brouhaha of the fights,
The tough guys battling it out.
The anger at the missed penalty calls,
The illegal, uncalled hooks and grabs.
The fury at the penalties that were called,
The realization that perhaps, maybe, the refs were right.
The nervous breakdown as the opposing team shoots on net,
The relief that it did not go in.
The joy of a goal scored,
The deafening roar of ecstasy erupting in the rink.
The run to the Stanley Cup finals,
The fulfillment of many dreams.
The union of the entire nation, coast to coast,
Cheering for the Canadian game at the Olympics.
The feeling of a game won,
There is nothing more satisfying.

I like role playing games of all sorts, especially Final Fantasy games.
