My Love/Hate Relationship With Fall

In Texas there's no such thing of four seasons.

My Love/Hate Relationship With Fall
Sam White

It's about that time again: Fall is near. I can tell because the leaves are getting ready to change, it's starting to get cooler in the mornings, and my allergies are coming in (literally had a sneezing attack twice now.) I'm super excited for fall this year because fall in Oklahoma is way different from fall in Texas. In Oklahoma, there are all four seasons, but in Texas four seasons is a hotel, not anything to do with nature. So this year fall will be totally different for me. I'm a summer baby, so I've always had a love/hate relationship with fall.

1. Love: I GET TO WEAR LONG SLEEVES

I love love LOVE wearing long sleeves. My closet is full of them right now. I really really want to wear them in the morning, but then by the time I get out of my second class it's a thousand degrees. Also, I have some really cute outfits for the fall games that I need to wear. Mother Nature, please bring cooler weather because my outfits depend on it.

2. Hate: My allergies.

I hate my allergies. HATE. Every time the weather is about to change I can tell because my nose starts getting stuffed up and I start sneezing every second of the day. I hate it. I feel like my face is puffy. A puffy face is not cute AT ALL.

3. Love: Fall colors!

I'm in love with the colors of fall! Reds, greens, orange (Go Pokes), yellow, and brown make the color combinations in the fall. I have so much orange already that it's going to be awesome when fall actually gets here. Hello riding boots, goodbye sandals.

4. Hate: Everything starts getting spooky.

Everyone loves Halloween, Jack-O-Lanterns, haunted houses, horror movies: Not me. I hate scary things. I wish I could just have Thanksgiving and Christmas that's it. No Halloween. Except I'm trying to think of a cute costume for this year (let me know what y'all think I should be). But no scary things!

5. Love: The cute dates that everyone goes on.

Every year pictures of people going on dates in the fall make me so happy (even though I'm single lol) I love seeing people happy! From walking around the lake to carving pumpkins, the dates are too cute. Keep posting those pics y'all!

Ugh every year pictures of people going on dates in the fall makes me so happy (even though I'm single lol) I love seeing people happy! From walking around the lake to carving pumpkins, the dates are too cute. Keep posting those pics y'all!

6. Hate: Everything is PUMPKIN

Now, I love the smell of Bath and Body Works pumpkin scents, but what I can not stand is when everyone is posting their pumpkin spice lattes from Starbucks or the pumpkin pie slices. I can't. I am not a fan of pumpkin. Stop putting pumpkin in/on everything.

Overall fall is amazing and it's a beautiful season. There are just some things that come with fall that I could totally do without. I'm ready to get my leggings out, though!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
