Dear Alabama, It's Fall Now, So Cut The Crap

Welcome to hell on Earth.

Myself, along with everyone else in Alabama, have a major bone to pick with our weather patterns. We can never keep up with the seasons; when its spring its summer, when its fall its summer AGAIN, and when its winter its fall.

Here we are again, its October and yet, Alabama has not seen an once of fall weather. If you have lived here all of your life, like me, you know you're looking forward to this weather two days into summer weather. However, when some places are getting inches upon inches of snow, we're still living in the devil's armpit.

School has started back, football has been on since August, and according to our calenders its fall. WRONG. Ten more weeks of summer for you, Alabama. Don't even think of grabbing your favorite hoodie before heading out and forget wearing that super cute sweater you just bought.

It may be snowing in Montana, but here in Alabama, you'll catch us by the pool in November. Grab your sunscreen and head out for another +100 degree day.

Maybe one day Alabama will play along nicely with everyone else and we can have a normal fall. We might act like we're okay with all of our cute fall decor and our ability to already have Christmas decorations ready for purchase, but we are not okay, we are burning up please send help. Sincerely, everyone in Alabama.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
