hockey- central vs. northern
I'm #10 and play defense so if you happen to go to any of the games make sure to look for me. I got quite a bit of playing time against Northern and the game started off pretty even. Even though Northern got the first goal of the game, the team knew we could play and keep up with Northern. I was afraid that when Northern scored their first goal that we were going to get intimidated and not be able to score or play very well for the rest of the game, but man was I wrong...
Later in the first period we got our first goal which tied the game at 1-1. Once we got this goal not only the team, but all of Central's fans got really pumped up. The first period ended and we all went to the locker room before the second period started. Coach let us all know how good we were playing and to keep up the good work.
Winning this ice hockey game was extremely important because Northern is our second biggest rivalry. In a couple of weeks on February 2, we play Northern again for the second biggest game of the year, because it was for the "Medieval Cup". Earlier in the year we played Walled Lake Western for the "City Cup", which was the biggest game of the year which we won earlier in the year. We all knew that playing Northern for the "Medieval Cup" was going to be much more difficult than it was playing Western.
The second period was winding down and nobody ended up scoring throughout the whole period. The third period started and about halfway through our team scored with a slapshot from the blue line which really fired up the fans and our team. We knew all we had to do was get the puck past center ice and dump it in to win the game, however Northern wasn't ready to give up yet. With about 3 minutes left in the game, Northern ended up scoring off of a rebound, which really shocked the whole team.
Even though we ended up tying Northern 2-2, the team and coach was still happy because we knew how good we played and how good of a team they were. We were all going to be ready for the next game against Northern for the "Medieval Cup", so we all weren't very upset.

I feel that being an orange really describes me well, i love playing games and am a very athletic/competitive person. The parts that i feel define me the best when i read about orange is when it talks about needing fun, excitement, and being a natural trouble-shooter. I get into a lot of trouble throughout my life, but i often feel that its just the need for me to have fun and live a fast and exciting life. When i get a full-time job after college i definately don't want a boring job where i do the same thing everyday, i want a job where I'm outside doing something different all the time and that really entertains me (and pays well too). In the description it talks about love and giving gifts that bring obvious pleasure to your loved one. This describes me so well, because i love buying presents for my girlfriend, especially for her birthday and around Christmas time. It gives me a kind of a good feeling about myself, like I've made the person i love's life better in some way. Very happy that I am an ADVENTUROUS ORANGE, I've lived my life to that description up until now and plan on living it that way for the rest of my life.
