Life was never easy for someone with not the highest self-esteem but she kept going either way never letting anything or anyone get to her, but that didn’t always work for Sydney. She may have never cared what others had said about her either in a negative or positive way, she didn’t take constructive criticism or compliments into consideration. Until one day when everything got to heavy, she couldn’t handle any of it anymore. Sydney’s world had come crashing down right in front of her and that’s when reality showed its true self to her. 
	
That’s when hockey took its toll in Sydney’s life.

Skating is truly a blessing sent from above. The way the wind wisps around you blowing your hair back, whistling right past your ears making you feel as if the entire world has muted, paused, and pushed to the side. Everything has been focused on this one moment that lets you escape reality for the time being. 

Adding a bonus to skating was hockey. Hockey was everything to her. Hockey had been in her family for many generations and it had been passed down to from her father to her and her three brothers. 

Hockey is life. Nothing else mattered.

Sydney never let herself get close to others and usually ended up regretting it if she ever did. She had very few friends but that didn’t matter to her. She loved very few people in her life and wasn’t planning on adding more to the list anytime soon. 

She never expected anything unusual or out of the ordinary to happen to her then her everyday life, but that would never keep up, right?

Sydney Stockly was about to be cracked out of her shell weather she liked it or not.
