narcissism unchecked

The isolation inherent in moving across the country to a place you've never been and where a foreign language is spoken, is the raison d'être for the blog. Armed with a surplus of alone time never before experienced, I have returned, in sorts, to my 10 year-old self.

The most obvious consequence of this transformation is that my attachment to hockey is at a 16 year high. It is, in fact, through hockey that I feel I will connect to les québecois. To this end, I have fulfilled a childhood dream by purchasing season tickets. The team in question: l'Océanic de Rimouski.

A blog, I suppose, should be able to justify its existence by its content. This will undoubtedly prove difficult but the only niche I can think of right now is as one who blogs about the Océanic in english.
