Hello October

More than just a weather changing "season"

Hello October
WikiMedia

So, you were probably expecting some cliche article about the season changing from what the title read. Wrong. Although October is a fabulous month in the beautiful season of fall that is not why I am saying hello to October. For most people, Fall is their favorite season, because the leaves are changing, the weather is nice, hoodies and bonfires, Fall sounds so wonderful right? Well, I guess I agree with Fall sounding wonderful, but people are missing a key point in why October is so great. That little key point is Hockey season.

For most people who know me, they know I love hockey, and I love the Philadelphia Flyers even more. October is the month where the Flyers begin their lovely season. As for preseason that starts in September, that's great and all but October is officially hockey season for me, as well as most people.

For this year so far, preseason is looking great for the boys, and I cannot wait to be glued to my TV for months to come. The Flyers are beyond overdue to win the Stanley Cup this year, and so far so good. I wait for the countless nights where I stare at Ticketmaster waiting for the best deal, and planning to spend all of my money on tickets.

So as your watching the leaves change, and while you're out at the bonfire drinking a beer, remember to turn on the radio, or turn on the TV and tune into the Flyers game. Even just one. You will soon become one of the greatest fans in NHL hockey, which is the fans of the Philadelphia Flyers.

By the way, the best game to watch are the Flyers versus, New Jersey Devils, New york Islanders, New York Rangers, Washington Capitals, and of course, our main rivals the Pittsburgh Penguins. You will not want to miss this.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
