Dear August,

My time spent with you is always among the happiest. There is just something so warm and calming in your embrace.

There's something so special about you, August. Something I can't quite put my finger on.

The sun seems to shine a bit differently.

You can almost feel the air turn a little crisp.

You're the last hope of summer but the beginning excitement of fall.

I celebrate a new year of life within your walls!

It taught me to reminisce on the good times spent here.

Finishing up the last bit of summer, getting my last travels in.

School is starting and you get to see all of the people you love whom you didn't get to be with throughout the summer.

It's the middle of the year, but it's also a new beginning.

Life is just joyous during your time.

It makes me look forward to what is to come and be thankful for what has past.

They say August babies feel all their emotions a little bit better than others; maybe that's why we are so in love with you.

Not much makes me happier than you. Thank you for blessing me this month, and thank you for bringing me fall.

Thank you for all that you are, August.

Love,

Your August baby.

College students, you might be able to relate to this one. These probably sound familiar because we often tell ourselves these phrases; however, we are unable to follow or agree with these the following, deep down inside of our overwhelmed, tired minds.

1. "No more spending money on useless things"

Until you walk into a 99 cents store and suddenly have the urge to pick up anything that's less than a dollar.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.
