An Open Letter To My Hammock

Dear Hammock,

I know some people might find me ridiculous when I say my hammock is my favorite thing I own, but its true. I do love you. You've always been there for me. Sometimes, I even consider you a best friend. Through my bad days and my long days, through the sunny hot summer days and the cool fall days.

You have always given me a place to nap whether it be in the middle of the quad or in the middle of a forest. You always are around with your ability to just cling onto my backpack, sometimes I can't even tell if you're there.

Any day I can hammock is an all around better day if you ask me. How much more could a girl ask for? Just a place to comfortably lounge around and rest, maybe even nap.

To be honest, I am really excited for the fall because my favorite thing is putting you up in the quad and slowly swaying in the wind as the leaves are changing colors. I don't feel like I'll be sweating away, but cooly resting easy.

You, hammock, have never let me down. You've alway been there for me from when I'm feeling down to when I'm feeling bored. You always give me opportunities for new adventures and always will give me a place to sleep at night. Where it be double and triple stacking on top of friends on the quad or going camping with friends, every time I take you out I have always had the most memorable experiences, from the cool fall days to the warm summer nights. I don't ever doubt you.

Best,

You're Average Hammocker

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.
