#I h8 u year long contracts

[evanbuckleysarms]

so I currently pay too much money for a Barre studio (5 min walk) that I go to maybe 5-6 times a month... a beautiful new gym (15 min walk) with sick classes and amenities (including co-working spaces with private meeting rooms, steam room, dry sauna, and a billion classes) just opened near me and it is only 15/month more.

I go with the gym right?? Like this is an obvious choice??

Hey! Im a Bolts fan who is fully intent upon following Bishop to the stars next season. What would a new stars fan need to know?

hey! sorry it took me ages to answer this! i’m so glad to hear that you want to learn more abt the stars! ! i’m putting this under a read more so that ppl can be spared from me going on abt the stars for forever!

anyways DALLAS STARS intro ish the 17/18 season

! as all teams,and esp because stars had a p shitty season, stars are shuffling rosters and coaching a bit!so i can’t know for sure if everyone’s gonna be here when the season starts but still!we hired ken hitchcock who’s replacing lindy ruff as head coach for the 17-18 season! hitchcock actually coached the stars to their cup 1999! so he’s a familiar face to the franchise!

and ofc u know that we signed ben bishop (and i bet you know more about him than me! so i’ll just say that i’m really excited)! we’ve been struggling a bit with our goaltending (kari lehtonen, our 16/17 starter, gets more shit than he deserves tbqh,but he might not be the starter we need. he’s a gr8 guy and a good goalie and he saved us a bunch of times last season!)

we also recently traded for marc methot! who we need to fill out our messy defense, hopefully he will bring us some veteran experience and solid defense! and vet experience we need ! because stars are a pretty young team! or at least our d is!(i’ll get back to that) 

i’d say our “core” group of players,aka the ones we protected, who won’t be moved this summer are:

jamie benn! captain! #14, wingerreally gr8 drafted 129th(!) overall 2007! went extremely underrated for a while but he worked really hard and he’s loved by the stars org and fans! he won the art ross 14-15 (that’s how good he is!) he’s been bothered by injuries for a couple of seasons but hopefully he’ll be back on top after the summer!also has a brother who played for the stars until the deadline this season ): jordie benn is now playing for the canadiens!here he is mic’d up !tyler seguin #91 , centerreally good hockey player,drafted 2overall by the bruins 2010, traded to us after the 13-14 season. a great center! has 3 dogs he posts abt on social media a lot, they’re called cash,marshall and gerry so he’s automatically blocked and idk him. no but he struggled a bit w media and stuff when he was younger, around and before the trade,there’s a lot on tht out there and in his tribune article! he made some mistakes when he was a teenager,and the stars have waited him out for several seasons now so i wouldn’t be surprised if they give him the A, and honestly imo he deserves it by now,he’s been gr8 with the community and with younger playerswatch this  + tribune ! good read!

jason spezza! alternate captain #90 , centerteam dad !!! nhl vet ! amazing with rookies (i still have *** dreams about the spezza-valeri-mattias janmark line, they’re all still stars so I hope they’ll be able to reunite tht line this season), has an amazing laugh i love him!!! 

radek faksa #12 c/lwjust watch this video ! he made it so far and fought so hard to get to the nhl! he’s really good! only 23 so there’s a lot of potential with him! owns a turtle !

antoine roussel #21 LW! one of 2 french players in the nhl ! known troublemaker and the loml, underrated because ppl thinks he only fights! he had his best season yet last season and did really well for france at worlds! if u google him you’ll only get stuff abt his on ice stuff,off the ice he’s a really sweet guy, he does a lot of charity work and he has a cat called minou! he also called jamie out during an interview,announcing to the world that jamie has a diabetic cat…which remains a mysteryhere’s a vid abt his journey to the nhl! 

john klingberg #3 Di could go on forever abt him lbr, he’s a good offensive dman , heavily criticized last season when stars for some reason expected him (24) to play on the top d pairing with esa (21) w/o any struggles. he’s dumb af and i h8 him ! no but lbr if he gets some stuff together he’ll be one of the better offensive dmen in the league,he’s a big part of the Stars Future™ which takes us to the rest of our Dhe once said that he’d rather be bad at hockey than a virgin,which is rly embarrassing.he won gold w tre kronor at worlds! and got two teeth knocked out…which he has since replaced than godhere’s a vid abt his journey and 1st season!here he is …narrating the casino night,, and accidentally asking why tyler carries around two dicks…unfortunate

esa lindell #23 D! a gr8 Guy! big ! almost paler than klinger i bet they switch sunscreen brands in the locker room… transitioned from the AHL to the NHL really quickly last season played big minutes ! he’s a good two way dman! stars just signed him to a two year contract! and he’ll probs be up with us all season this season too.THERE’s an iconic interview with him in finnish that klinger crashes my yelling esa’s name rly loudly 0 chill,it’s so messy i love it

kari lehtonen #32sat on top of the goal once,the world won’t let him forget it. part of the now dead finn goalie tandem. he’s been with the stars for a good while! i love him and i think he’s getting too much shit, but i do agree that he might not be a starter

ALSO a big mf shoutout to VAL NICHUSHKIN , you’re gonna hear shit about him because he’s playing in the KHL right now to develop his game and ppl are bitter about us protecting him! but he has the potential to be really good! and he’s really young too, he had some contract agreements that says either the NHL or the KHL, no AHL, so stars let him sign with KHL for two seasons, he still has one season left on that contract but we kinda want him back, and we MIGHT get him! he’s rly sweet and ! iconic !

we also protected stephen johns, brett richie !

i’m not going to talk about all the players but we have a lot of young guys, (julius honka, remi elie,mattias janmark, brett richie), and i love them all!they’re hopefully going to be parts of the future of this team! and even with them mentioned i’ve skipped a bunch of dudes, - I KNOW it can be hard learning about the stars with tyler and jamie (love them but still,) blocking up the tag! but there’s so much gold ! especially in the casino night vids (15/16/17)!- ALSO wow! big shout out to any content julie dobbs is in! she’s the main media personality for the stars and she’s so amazing! - the stars youtube page is dead af so i recommend the website for videos and stuff!!!

extra info:- GOAL SONG- video abt rich peverley, a player who collapsed during a game 14/15 season,it’s rly great and it makes me cry so warning abt that.

also the stars are rly good with extra af videos and content like THIS vid that makes me cry and THIS vid tht makes me emo

OK ! I’m gonna shut up now! Sorry for making this so long i just love this team a lot! I can recc u some stars blogs or answer any other questions if you want to!

10, 17 & 20 ✨

10: last group you started to listen to?

ive been so focused on shinee i havent even been paying Attention to much of anyone else tbH but uhnngfmm……probably spica! i love spica theyre so amazingly talented with such strong unique voices and catchy songs and cool concepts ughhhhhgh

17: what did you listen to before kpop?

alot of things tbh! it really varied like id listen to pop music from growing up like britney and nsync and destinys child and stuff but also more current faves like janelle monae and nicki minaj, stuff from my parents/also growing up like earth wind and fire and alot of jazz bc im a jazz pianist and also cause of my parents, and then stuff from shows/movies/etc that i liked! so alot of night vale weather and character songs and soundtracks n stuff like that. i think my favorite song before taemin’s danger came out in 2014 and dragged me back into the kpop hell pit was absentee by jack campbell 

20: how did you get into kpop?

oh man heres a fuckign STORYso my parents both worked alot most of my life (and still do) so as a kid i generally hung out with my friends’ families more than my own to be honest. so my two main best friends for the longest time were both korean and so as early as like… idk age 10 or 11 i was already kinda in the know more or less abt it and soaked up a bit of basic korean culture and media from them! and also i took korean at an after school organization thing in my town from age 7-12 and then took tutoring for a while but then quit bc i was too busy. so like i was 11 and being Laughed at by my friend bc i could never do the dance to roly poly by tara right. so my first favorite kpop group was the wonder girls (rip :( ;;;) back in maybe 2011? maybe earlier than that actually. and like besides them i knew abt shinee and super junior and kara and tara pretty much. but then my best friend (at the time and for most of my life up until around 8th grade) got REALLY into shinee. n so for a few years i sucked up random knowledge from her whilst in my gross weaboo phase just kinda like……lowkey…so i actually called myself a shawol in 2012 because i knew so much abt the group already and i liked a few songs particularly (JOJO. i fuckign LOVED jojo) and i even watched the first ep of hello bABY back then. (and i really loved those studpid....ayominho parody vids...like idk if u know like...hell no....and our contract is the lucifer....god) and so i was like……lowkey into kpop by then just as a side effect of being friends w/ this person. so then i went thru like a billion phases with that knowledge quietly in the background (7th grade: like every anime i could get my greasy little hands on, 8th grade: fucking hetalia, supernatural and dr who and a few animes and welcome to night vale and then my friend got into exo and i wasnt With It, 9th grade: supernatural, dr who, hetalia, wtnv, and then the RAPTURE OCCURED)so in early ninth grade i started getting into kpop again like For Real (2014) and it was all the fault of lee fucking taemin and cnblue. at first i was like haha thats kinda cheesy and dumb. boybands r dumb lol i h8 pop music! bc i was kind of in the alt rock crowd trying to blend in with them because they were cooler than me and of course i was lying to myself because ive liked cheesy bubblegum pop all my got damn life. so i only listened to ftisland and cnblue because they were k-ROCK not POP right. ok so i was super into cnblue and i dont regret that at all i love them Alot i loved lee jonghyun so much. and i think after that i started going thru like every shinee mv ever because of nostalgia from my friend and seventh grade adn all that? and i was like ok what the fuck. because the last time id really seen taemin he was like a Baby in 2012 and 2013 to me and so i watched the danger mv and 1- it was immediately my favorite song. and 2- i was like ok what the fuck hes Grown Up Now how long have i been Asleep. so then i got into shinee and quickly became a diehard shawol (and then got sorta into vixx and bts i think) rather than any other group and i think at first i was really interested in 2min and i was a taemin stan and then a jinki stan. (and i just looked in my archive and i can Tell that the day i officially became a True Official Diehard shawol was january 28th 2015 and i really fuckign loved 2min alot and i mean i still do but holy shit thats all i posted for a while hence my username) so yeah theres an extremely pointless overcomplicated answer for u??? jesus im sorry
