With the news of Val playing tonight, I feel that it's important that I take a break from exam studying and write about Val's return...
Once upon a time, about a three and a half billion years ago, life was simple. Everybody had only one cell each, and we were all floating around in oceans. It was all a rather fair and egalitarian way to live. This remarkable equilibrium was how life did business for the next couple billion years. But eventually, the universe in all its celestial wisdom, decided this was not enough, that life needed to be something more. Over the next hundreds of millions of years, life evolved from the miniscule singled celled beings to the intelligent life we know refer to as Homo sapiens. From the industrial revolution, to the conveyor belt, to the advent of computers, with each technological innovation, mankind got one step closer to coming to universal perfection.
Then, on one fateful March 4th day in a hospital in Chelyabinsk Russia, the clouds parted and the heavens bestowed upon the earth billions of years’ worth of evolution, a man by the name of Valeri Nichushkin. And on this day, when Valeri Nichushkin makes his triumphant return to the Dallas Stars, the hockey gods look down in utter silence as Val makes his way onto the ice and screams out with the rage of a thousand suns #IAMVALNICHUSHKIN.
Anyways, back to studying Pharmacology, Med Chem and everything else that makes me want to drive a pen into both my eyes.
