The first person I interviewed was Harris Plourde a 37 year old born and raised Canadian. Harris says " I love the speed of the sport. Not just of the players, but how fast things change. I realized that you have to be constantly on your toes. Also, unlike like basketball, football and soccer, I find hockey requires refined abilities and skills. There's no other sport that you have to skate or use a stick. Everyone is born with the natural ability to throw or kick, but hockey skills are learned." He also says that hockey is very popular in Canada. He plays whenever he gets the chance.…
A hockey player impels himself forward by pushing off the ice with a power opposite to the skate sharp edge. Since the contact of the edge with the ice is just about zero, this is the main way he can impel himself forward. The figure underneath represents the material science behind this guideline. As the hockey player pushes off with his back leg, an opposite power F is applied on the skate by the ice. The part of the power F that focuses forward (toward movement) is the thing that pushes the player forward. In the meantime, his other skate is either raised or floating on the ice. As he advances he then changes to the next leg and pushes off the ice with that one, and the procedure is reflected. To push off the ice with more noteworthy forward power (and quicken speedier), the skater expands the edge…
Playing Ice Hockey was a burning passion of mine. It all started in the cold and dense locker room. Practice had just finished up and we were inside the locker room getting undressed. I was a forward on the team and was only ten years old. The team goalie was sick and was not going to be able to make our game the next day. Coach asked “Is anyone willing to play goalie for our game?” and I, the young ten year old boy I was; was the first person to quickly respond saying “I will!” Playing goalie was destined for me, I was a star and very talented.…

Field hockey has taught me some of the basic values of life and has changed my morals as well. I learned to respect all players, coaches and referees. I learned that I can be a good player and play hard – yet, still be courteous and kind on the playing field. This sport has taught me how to love myself, my teammates, and to become the best athlete I can be, through important lessons that I can incorporate on and off the field. It will hold a place in my heart even after I can no longer suit up to play in my stinky goalie gear, and I will always appreciate…
It is not a gentle sport. “You can’t go in this sport with a ballerina attitude. Hockey is a sport that requires toughness and focus. If you go in a hockey game with no focus, you are going to get thrown around the rink like a bouncy ball riding in a car. Hockey needs lots of focus, strength, and power.”…
The concept from the textbook that I select is conflict, I have not journaled about this concept, this is the common phenomenon appear in the small group communication. When we make the video, the conflict between Justin and I. The causes of conflict are perception and procedural expectations. The difference in perspective results in differing attitudes, beliefs, and values to cause the conflict. For example, our group video time is 5 minutes. I suggest make the time of the video more than 5 mintues. Because of the requirement of video is 5-10 minutes and I think we need to add more information to meet the content requirement, but Justin thinks our video is ok to submit it. The attitude between us is different. I want to do everything best, Justin want to finish the group…

I believe my greatest non-academic achievement would be my involvement in the sport of hockey. I have been passionately involved in hockey since I was a young child and have been able to transition from a youth to a young adult with many of my peers in the hockey world. I find hockey to be my greatest achievement outside the classroom because of how much time I have invested playing the game, as well as the time I have spent being an advocate for the sport. Not only have I had the opportunity to play the sport for almost the entirety of my life, I have also been able to become an active member of my community, using hockey as the outlet. I have taken part in mentorship initiatives to help teach young children the sport, I have refereed youth…
