Move over Summer because Winter is replacing you.

3 Reasons Why Winter Is The Best
David Creixell Mediante

1. Snow

Let’s be real, nothing can be more beautiful than the ever still and frozen snow. As unmoving and stagnant as snow can be it can’t be matched by any other. The trees bend to its will, and the wind is submissive to carry it wherever it may want to go. Snow is the one type of precipitation that restricts us into the season of Winter. Not to mention that with snow, there can be snowmen, sledding, and a legitimate reason to appreciate and respect the outdoors.

2. Comfort Food

Nothing is more satisfying than sitting down on your favorite sofa with a large bowl of mashed potatoes and a blanket able to keep you nested for the next four hours of laziness. Comfort food gathers whole families and friends together for celebration; it’s not just the Holidays that are justification for feasting, even though they are pretty good reasons. Comfort food brings a sense of warmth and security to everyone when the outside world is covered in a frozen, placed blanket.

3. The Cold

With Winter brings the cold, an unstoppable force that is unpredictable as it is welcomed. Many spite the cold and only wish for summer to last forever, but this is not the case our mother Earth intended. Yes in some spots of the world it is Summer all year long, but you can’t build a snowman with sand and homemade ice cream wouldn’t taste very well with it either. The cold also gives people a good reason to snuggle with loved ones and stay inside to watch the series of Gilmore Girls for the fourth time.

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.
