Hockey season is officially upon us. Many fans will argue that Hockey is the best sport around. It definitely is.

1. It's not hot.

Three hours in a heavily air conditioned arena means no sweating while you're cheering on your team.

2. They fight.

What other sport allows players to hit each other?

3. The games are unpredictable.

Games are super fast paced and you never know what is going to happen.

4. They poke fun at the other team.

At least once a game you'll see a team making fun of their opponents on the jumbo-tron.

5. The fans are crazy.

Where else would you see someone who has decorated a Captain America costume to match their team's colors?

6. The season is longer.

Regular season lasts from October to April, and playoffs run until June.

7. The Players.

* Heart eyes.*

8. Tickets are cheap.

Most of the time you can get a ticket for $15-$20.

9. The rivalries are serious, but also funny.

One day you may hate them cause you're playing them, but the next you'll love them because it's hockey.

10. Their social media accounts poke fun at each other.

If you ever need any entertainment, just google NHL twitter fueds.

11. The Stanley Cup.

The only trophy where the players will eat cereal out of it, and use it to drink beer.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
