October, You're Letting Me Down.

October, You're Letting Me Down.

To My Dearest October,

We have a serious situation on our hands here. Like many people, fall is my favorite season: the month of October, especially, has a special place in my heart. It's the perfect month; Halloween, fall scented candles, pretty foliage, cute fall fashion, etc. One of my favorite things about October is that it's the perfect weather, no longer frying in the summer heat but too soon to be freezing in the cold of winter.

So I'm over here just trying to get my "Fall" on and enjoy everything my favorite month has to offer; in my combat boots, jeans, and comfy cardigans that I am fully stocked up on and have been waiting a whole year to wear.. But October, you are just not having it this year. You're out here tryna re-invent yourself, trying to morphe into another month of summer. Or so that's what it feels like this October while we're out here struggling, trying to enjoy a cool and crisp October, like the one that we're NOT having. Well guess what October? Summer months have had their time to shine. It was your turn. And I for one, was counting on you.

Sure, it's nice and chilly in the morning but then you change your mind and you're like, "tricked ya,".. and by the time the afternoon rolls around that nice fall outfit I've picked out for myself makes me want to tear my skin off, melting in the sun by about 1pm.


So what's up October??? you got one week left, you best get your ish together.

Sincerely, you're highly disappointed October/Fall Enthusiast.

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.
