The Recent Mind of Ranger Fans

The three main thoughts we have all considered in recent seasons.

The Recent Mind of Ranger Fans
nyr

As a Rangers fan, the ups and downs can sometimes be more than your Grade A roller coaster. Yet, as the prideful hockey fanatics we are who love the Blue-shirts endlessly, Ranger fans stick through it all; knowing d*mn well no matter how bad of a stretch we may be in, better things are around the bend.


The following three thoughts are those which almost every Rangers fan can relate to each and every season as of late:


1. Where the Hell is our Power Play?!

Specifically in the past two or three seasons, our power play seems to be nonexistent. This year's current statistics are also not desirable by any means. Being in the bottom third of power play percentage in the entire league is not where we picture ourselves, especially when you consider how successful a team we have been. It makes all of us wonder, "How in the world do we compete?"


2. Henrik; the God. The Myth. The King.

The most stable part of the organization is the individual who guards his throne. Henrik Lundqvist is no doubt one of, if not the best, goaltenders in the league. His consistency, although among losses at times, is what keeps the team afloat. So before you go to bed at night, be sure to send your thank you's to Mr. Lundqvist.


3. Bring on the second half/playoffs!

It can be bad. It can be despicable. It can be down right aggravating. However, no matter how difficult it may be to watch the first half of our season sometimes, we thrive in the second half. Hockey is definitely a sport where it counts to be hot at the right time. Catching winning streaks and playing top notch hockey late in the season it what helps to propel us to successful playoff games and the ultimate goal: Stanley Cup appearances.

So here's a message for those who oppose the Rangers: don't sleep, we'll see you in April.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
