Roller Hockey in Miami

So right now I'm in Miami, and I'm having a blast! I went and played hockey with my aunts friend's son and his friend (Jaxon and Ty joined us too as you can see) it was pretty dificult for me with roller blades and everything...but it was fun, I got to practice shooting and work on foot movement. The two boys that play roller hockey are really good one of them (matt) has a youtube video you can view here. Hope everyone is havin a great summer...love ya:)

This Week Miami...

next week Northern Edge Elite Hockey School. Almost time to get down to business...but for now vacation.

Happy 4th!

NEW CAMP JUST ADDED!!!

Wow...I just got to add another camp to my summer. I'm pumped! I am adding a specialized camp to my schedule. It's the Northern Edge Elite Hockey School's Goal Scoring Camp in Vancouver, WA. I'll get to stay with my Portland coach during the week while attending the camp, and that's awesome!

From the Northern Edge website:

GOAL SCORING
Intensive Goal Scoring Techniques: Creative Scoring, Shooting in Stride, Second Effort Goals, Deflections/Tips/Screens, Breakaways, One-Timers, Dekeing, Forehand/Backhand Shooting, Net Battle, Funneling Pucks, Shooting from uncomfortable situations.

Highly Specific Game Situation Goal Scoring Drills: Odd Man Situations.

Appropriate for any Player looking to improve on shooting techniques regardless of their position.

That's what I'm tallking about!

Spring League...

Hey this is Jerin! I just got back from a field trip from school... I wanted to tell you a little about spring league. So after the season I started the spring league. A lot of different people come that usually don't play at my rink during the normal season... so, during this time I meet a lot of new people and meet new competition. I feel like I'm really learning and improving a lot. I love you!!!!

The Summer Hockey Plan

Sorry for the delay in posts, after returning from Chicago and a recent trip to Bend and an upcoming trip to Eugene (all during school time) I've had a lot to do. I have been able to finally solidify hockey plans for this summer and I AM PUMPED!

Spring league continues for another 4 or 5 weeks - so I'm way into that right now, but here is my rough summer schedule:

Northern Edge Elite Hockey School: July 14-18, Medford, OR

Northwest Selects Mini-Camps:
July 19-20, Everett, WA
August 9-10, Tri Cities, WA
August 23-24, Portland, OR


That's all for now, but you never know...we'll see. Later.

Here comes memories of Chicago!

So here are some pictures we took before the Blackhawk game that I went to with my dad!! The trip was a present from my parents for my 13th birthday. The Blackhawks beat Detroit like a drum. They won 6-2!! It was awesome!! I will be talking a lot about the trip in the next few blog posts, as well as add more photos... its kind of like a series...
We took the train into the city from Oak Park where we stayed and got off near the United Center. There was a park there that had a great view of the Chicago skyline. Of course, I was sporting the Hawks jersey and we stopped to get a pic with Sears Tower. PEACE!

Other pictures I included in this post we shot all around and inside the UC. They include the scoreboard, the ad board, the indian head on the outside wall and a rad statue of Blackhawk greats! I took some 200 pictures, so I am hoping to share a few with you here and there. Enjoy!

GUESS WHAT!!!!!!!

Okay so today I go to open all my presents for my Birthday!!! I got some books, $, Under Armour clothes and an awsome Nitendo DS...etc. I got one present where I had to pop balloons
and there was money and confetti inside... (yeah we are cleaning it up right now but, I ditched):]...Well I got one hugely amazing present. Are you ready?
I'M GOING TO CHICAGO THIS WEDNESDAY to see the CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS (YEA!) play the DETROIT DEADDWINGS (BOOOO!) So I'm totally super pumped!!!! We will be in chicago BY noon and we'll stay for 3 days and 2 nights!!!! YAY....

Oh yeah I'm also soooo excited about going to Miami Florida this summer!!!

Shootin' Pucks

So today my dad and I went to the elementary school close to our house and shot pucks. I was in my pj's (it is spring break). So here's a pic...

My dad's actually shooting the pictures from behind a chain link fence, and I'm shooting off this cool slick pad we found in the shed.

MY BIRTHDAY IS TODAY: March 27, 10:22 PM

Today is my birthday but it doesn't feel like it because I only got to open one present. Lame... just joking (my mom just read that) well, the reason why is because I have to wait until my party to open them. Thank goodness my party is on saturday and not wwwwaaayyyy later. So my Nene (my grandma which you might know) is in town for my birthday... we are going shopping this week!!! :] Well, I better go to bed... it is late, it seems really late because I stayed up unyil like 1:15this morning. I had a over nighter. I love you... goodnight! <<3>

Richmond MVP Award

Here's a picture of the MVP award I won in Richmond, BC:

It says 2008 Richmond Girls Ice Hockey MVP and then it has this Inuit style block figure often found around the Vancouver area. It's really nice!
