hockey, baseball, everything I love

believe it or not I’m currently watching big ten baseball on tv. Illinois vs northwestern at.. ILLINOIS home ground! sigh. just 1 year ago I was sitting in those very bleachers that are now on tv and thousands of miles away. it seems so surreal now

I see the ugly south quad bell tower lol.

OH MAN I MISS ILLINOIS! THE ARC! SHERMAN HALL! THE ICE ARENA! GREEN ST! SUMMER UBC SOFTBALL!

well college days are long ever. I should just face it. but ooh man, seeing illinois on tv at illinois just ya know, connects me with the place despite the physical distance.

by the way, I am able to watch this on tv because I did, eventually, sign up for the hockey channel (ASN here). so I get bigten ball games, mlb, nhl, nba (the only thing I don’t really watch). and yes, it was specially done so that I could watch the stanley cup playoffs hee hee

anyway. GO ILLINI!!!!!!!!!! :)

kenji johjima leaves the mariners

he has decided to return to Japan! all the best, kenji! I’m gonna miss watching him when the mariners play now but at least ichiro and his 200hit seasons will still be there – the main reason I’m a huge fan of the mariners hehe. maybe when I move back to Japan someday I’ll go visit kenji, since fukudome is no longer in nagoya. (on a side note, I wonder how ibata is doing these days…)

anyway, I submitted my psych report yesterday. yet another 1 down. 1 TO GO. it’s hard to believe that (hopefully) by the end of this week I will almost be like a free bird, released from its cage. and the rest of the enclosure disappears nov6…
