11 Things You Won't Miss About Summer
Odyssey

So, for some of us summer is almost over! I return to school in less than a month, and I am kind of freaking out. The end of summer always brings mixed emotions, but here are some things I won't miss.

1. Sweat. So much sweat.

When you live in Texas, you sweat within five minutes of being outside. I can't wait for the fall because I won't die every time I walk outside.

2. Mosquitoes.

They are everywhere! I was enjoying some peace and quiet time in my backyard, and I got bit at least six times by mosquitoes. I will not miss those pesky insects when the fall comes around.

3. You won't be bored all the time.

Summer is great! You have no schedule and can do all sorts of fun things. Well, nine out of 10 times I have nothing to do, so I just sit on my butt all day or sleep.

4. It won't be hot anymore.

It's just so hot outside all the time. When fall and winter roll around I won't miss the heat.

5. Sunburns.

Laying out all day by the pool is super relaxing, but sunburns are real and they hurt. If you've spent more than two hours in the sun you know the agony of a sunburn.

6. Not being able to make plans outside.

I mean, you can, but you will be sweating the whole time. I miss being able to take hikes, hammock, and enjoy outdoor activities without the heat.

7. The random downpours.

When it's summer, I rarely think about rain. Whenever I am out enjoying the sun, and it randomly starts pouring I am not a fan of that.

8. Having to wear sunblock all the time.


It smells weird, and I hate having to constantly reapply it.

9. The constant humidity.

The humidity makes it so much hotter than it feels. Also humidity does wonders for people with naturally curly hair.

10. The crowds at any type of park.

In the summer it means vacation and getting to go to Six Flags, waterparks, having picnics, going to museums, etc. The lines are ridiculous everywhere you go, and you can never enjoy peace and quiet with crowds.

11. Feeling like you need to constantly take a shower.

Walking from my front door to my car, I sweat. We all have that constant feeling of needing to take a shower before and after work.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
