Ice-Hockey

Got free tickets to an ice-hockey game held yesterday, part of the business-school Buddy exchange program. It was quite an experience albeit initially. Watching a live game so close to the ring itself. Plucks were inches to flying out of the ring at times, but other than that, it was a pretty dull game.

Ice-Hockey is a really funny game though. Substitutions occur as the game is running. Players just jump in and out of the game. I am still wondering how they coordinate their timing. No hand-signals, no shout from the coach, just one split second, another player is on the field (ice ring). The game is really short too! With just 3 periods of 20 mins.

Anyway, got 2 mid-term tomorrow, and I am still struggling with the basics. Thats what happen when you start opening your books and read it 3 days before 2 papers. Well.. I AM ON EXCHANGE MA!
