Au Revoir Blog

    Before I started writing this blog of mine, I was a nobody. I had so many opinions to express and so many stories to tell, yet I had no one to tell them to. Since I have the gift of the gab, I never shut up. This may be hard to believe, but people started getting annoyed of my lovely voice, constantly ranting about Sidney Crosby. This blog was a way for me to say what I feel, without holding back. If you don't agree with how much of a slut Miley Cyrus is, or how ridiculous E-readers are, don't read my blog. I loved that about it. It was a way to introduce my writing to the world, and it was worth it. After writing this blog, I've learned that I love Sid the Kid way too much, I hate an immense amount of things and I really contradict myself when talking about Americans. 

     Now, I feel like I am a somebody, you know, since the co-creator of Kill Shakespeare commented on my blogs. That was pretty cool and the highlight of my blogging life, maybe even my actual life. I may have thought that blogging was dumb when I started this, but I finished loving it. Who knows? Maybe I'll keep blogging about Sidney Crosby when he recovers, or when he marries me.

Amendment #2

     As I was watching television on the weekend, I was horrified with what I saw on CNN. Gabrielle Giffords, an American politician was shot in the head while giving a speech on January 8th, by a 22 year old man, named Jared Lee Loughner in Arizona. Not only was she critically injured, but 9 other people were killed and many others wounded.
       It just disgusts me when terrible events happen like this in America, all because of their gun laws and their crazy views on politics. Everyone has the right to own a firearm, says amendment #2 in the American Constitution. As a result, many Americans think it's all fine and dandy to keep a gun above their fireplace; the Constitution says so. First of all, the Constitution was written over a hundred years ago in a time of war. There were no alarm systems and your neighbors lived miles and miles away from you, you definitely needed a gun then. But in today's modern day society, not a chance. Most Americans live in a home with a alarm system, or have a phone and have neighbors close by, a gun is not needed. Giving citizens guns is a bad idea. 
        If the gun laws in the US were stricter, shootings like this wouldn't happen. After all, any one in America can buy a gun. Some politicians say "people chose how they act. We can not influence them to kill or use weapons in a negative way." But, no, no, and no. Sarah Palin actually, on the homepage of her website, placed crosshairs on every state with democratic representatives, symbolizing America needed to get rid of them . Gabrielle Giffords is a democrat. There was a crosshair located on the state of Arizona. If that's not a good enough reason to get change the ridiculous gun laws in the USA, then I don't know what is.

Blindsided

     As you probably already know by now, Sidney Crosby has a mild concussion. David Steckel, of the Washington Capitals, blindside hit him during the Winter Classic, which by the way, was an epic fail. Now, I know blindside hits are terrible, and should be deal it very harshly, but between my fits of uncontrollable crying and throwing shoes at my window, I realized how unfair this hit truly was. Crosby did nothing to deserve that hit. He didn't instigate any fights. He never said anything to Steckel. He didn't even have the puck! But the worst part is, that was the perfect example of  a intentional blindside hit to the head, and Steckel didn't even receive a penalty! Absolutely ridiculous. Apparently, Steckel had no intention of hitting Crosby. Lies. Sidney Crosby is one of the best hockey players alive, insanely rich (and good looking), and probably would have creamed the Capitals if he hadn't been hit. If you were Steckel, wouldn't you want to hit him? And I find it incredibly hard to believe that 6"2 Steckel and his shoulder just happened to hit Crosby in the head. Apparently, the Pittsburgh Penguins doctors think that Crosby's mild concussion wasn't caused by the Steckel hit, but by a hit the following Wednesday. No, just no. I know I'm not a doctor, but I saw both hits and one of them was far worse than the other, and I bet you could guess which one it was. A concussion can be caused by by many hits, not just one but Crosby's concussion was defiantly caused at the Winter Classic.

      Now to even more depressing stuff. The Pittsburgh Penguins have lost every game they've played in since Sidney's been gone. Super ridiculous. So, what? You guys can't play one game without him? Do you really expect him to score every goal? He's one player, and one player does not make a team. Step it up, and win some games. Stop pouting about how your captain isn't here to pass you the puck or score the game winning goal. Be a man and do it yourself.

Tangled in my Depression

       I'm so depressed. First, the Penguins lose to the Washington Crapitals in the Winter Classic, then Sidney gets the concussion, then, to top it all off, Pittsburgh is sucking lately. So, yeah. Just drowning in my tears, no big deal. I saw Tangled yesterday and that made me feel better. Rapunzel's hair had magical powers and Flynn Rider was the best Disney criminal since the Artful Dodger. I was happy for about 90 minutes. Then I realized that the real world isn't anything like the rainbows, talking animals, true love, happily ever after, the Pittsburgh Penguins aren't sucking and Sidney Crosby doesn't have a concussion world. Oh, but I wish with all my heart that it was. I guess I'll have to keep wishing upon some stars or ask Rapunzel to heal Sidney Crosby with her magical hair.
