Key Dates For The Fall Semester At Ole Miss

Is it Fall yet? Fall is said to be one of the best times to be here. With the Grove packed each Saturday, the leaf's changing colors, the smell of everything pumpkin and the air turning cooler. Here are a few key dates you'll wanna know for this coming fall semester at Ole Miss.

1.  Move-In Week: August 13-18

Depending on what dorm/floor you live on will have different dates. Check out the housing website for the full list of details. Just prepare for the craziness yet exciting day. Cause after all this will be your home for the next nine months. Oh and you'll end up questioning how you managed to get everything in your tiny dorm. http://studenthousing.olemiss.edu/move-in/

2. Welcome Week: August 22-26

You have two types of freshmen: one that goes to the majority of the welcome week events and the other that avoids it at all cost. Yeah, getting in a ball pit with strangers might be weird but hey its welcome week! This is fun for anyone no matter what grade.

3. First football game of the season: September 10

Get pumped Rebs because football is back! We might just be playing Wofford but who cares it's finally football season. So bring out your Grove best attire and get ready for Friday night tent races and Saturday's spent in Vaught again.

4.Ole Miss vs Alabama football game: September 17

The whole week leading up to this game is called "Bama hate week" by some, and no doubt the game everyone is looking forward to this season (besides the Egg Bowl). After beating the Tide back-to-back the last two years meeting's who is ready to pack Vaught and make this the third year in a row?

5. Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment: September 9-16

It's rush week! Recruitment week is an exciting week full of songs, chants, running in heels to your next house and finding your home. Even if you aren't going through recruitment go to The Grove on bid day. It's fun to see everyone get their bids, the Gamma Chi revel and running to the houses. (P.S. your name tag will become your best friend, Don't lose it)

6. THANKSGIVING BREAK: November 21-25

It's about time we get a break (and thank gosh it's a week). You'll end up spending half of it eating and the other half sleeping. It's amazing.

7. FINALS: December 5-9

The best time of the year is near, (thxs Christmas) and also the worst time of the year is upon us (thxs finals). Study and power through; remember a 6-week winter break is waiting at the end of finals, and your GPA does not define you. Also don't forget the coffee!

Daily Fun Lists

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

With each new year comes new goals.

Deciding on a goal can be hard, unsure of what to change for this new year. A new goal for myself is to be happier and take care of myself more. I am a very driven person; so driven that I commit to a million and ten things.

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.
