Is anyone else doing Yuletide?
Sep. 1st, 2013 11:55 pmWaah~ Yuletide nominations are almost here! :D My first year of nominating something and second year of writing something for it. I'm really glad I did it last year, it was a lot more fun than I would have thought it was.
I think I'm going to nominate hockey movies: Goon, Breakfast With Scot and the Mighty Ducks. :D
They changed the nominations and now two people have to nominate the same thing for it to make it into the fest. I think that will weed out a lot of fandoms and leave the more popular rare fandoms. Some people seem upset about it and I can see why. Especially because there is no way of knowing when a fandom has already passed the two people threshold, so people are going to keep nominating some things, just to make sure they get through and basically waste their nominations... I think it will be interesting to see what kind of fandoms there are going to be this year.
I have a class tomorrow!!! First day of the fall semester. Of course it's about the laws that govern social work. I'm sure it will be super riveting first thing in the morning (from 9.00 to 13.00)
Oh and I watched the recap show from the Euro hockey tour and Finland beat Sweden 5-0. Muah ha ha! :D I wonder how many guys will make the Olympic team from the SM-liiga and KHL, because I think we have really good players in them and they would already be used to the big ice etc. I bet a lot of the D-men will come from the European leagues as we don't have many guys playing in the NHL anyway and the ones that are there aren't that great. And like Komarov and Korpikoski must be pretty high on the list for forwards? Idk, I guess we'll find out later. :D I wonder when they will reveal the jerseys? I hope someone will post about it on tumblr or I might miss it. (I tried to google it, but my google-fu is even worse in Finnish than it is in English...) I hope they won't look like the jersey's the team wore in this tournament, because they looked awful. Unless all teams have made a bet on who can have the worst looking uniforms in these Olympics. I guess that's a possibility. I don't think anyone is going to beat the USA team though. Theirs look so awful.
Oh and Minnesota revealed their new white jerseys today and they look good. :D (the green looks pretty black in some of these, so I wonder what they will look like on TV, but still, I like how they look. If I was rich I would get one.)
