Last night's loss was surely a tough one for Cleveland Cavaliers fans around the globe. Witnessing Golden State accept the championship trophy was honestly very difficult to watch. I know all fifteen of you absolutely hated the sight as well.

Despite the heavy silence that most likely filled the locker room last night, and the disappointment in your hearts, we, your fans, still think so highly of you. Last year, you all gave us the championship this city needed. I mean, we really thought we were cursed, cursed to never win a championship. But, when all seemed lost, you guys came and did what was thought to be the impossible. You brought a championship to Cleveland, and for that we are eternally grateful.

Even this year, you still stopped Golden State in their tracks. They thought they would sweep us, but they didn't. They thought we would go down easily, but we kept fighting. We are Cleveland. We fight hard and we give it our all. And that is exactly what you all did. Records were broken and memorable moments will never be forgotten.

You can't win them all, and us fans understand this. We are aware of the challenges you guys face during this series. You all pushed so hard, and did your best, and that is all we asked of you.

So, from the bottom of all our hearts, thank you. Thank you for an amazing season, and for pushing your hardest. Thank you for sacrificing time away from your families and loved ones to not only enhance your own careers, but to fight for our city. Day in and day out you spent countless hours trying to make our city proud. You may not feel proud at this moment, but trust me, we are proud of you.

Take your few months off to have fun, spend time with your families, and just relax and enjoy yourselves. Next season will be amazing, and we will be in the finals again. And believe me, if the Warriors are back in it with us, we will come out on top. Don't worry, we have full faith in you.

You are still are Cleveland Cavaliers, and we will be your fans through the good times and the bad.

Thank you.

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!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
