Hello October

More than just a weather changing "season"

Hello October
WikiMedia

So, you were probably expecting some cliche article about the season changing from what the title read. Wrong. Although October is a fabulous month in the beautiful season of fall that is not why I am saying hello to October. For most people, Fall is their favorite season, because the leaves are changing, the weather is nice, hoodies and bonfires, Fall sounds so wonderful right? Well, I guess I agree with Fall sounding wonderful, but people are missing a key point in why October is so great. That little key point is Hockey season.

For most people who know me, they know I love hockey, and I love the Philadelphia Flyers even more. October is the month where the Flyers begin their lovely season. As for preseason that starts in September, that's great and all but October is officially hockey season for me, as well as most people.

For this year so far, preseason is looking great for the boys, and I cannot wait to be glued to my TV for months to come. The Flyers are beyond overdue to win the Stanley Cup this year, and so far so good. I wait for the countless nights where I stare at Ticketmaster waiting for the best deal, and planning to spend all of my money on tickets.

So as your watching the leaves change, and while you're out at the bonfire drinking a beer, remember to turn on the radio, or turn on the TV and tune into the Flyers game. Even just one. You will soon become one of the greatest fans in NHL hockey, which is the fans of the Philadelphia Flyers.

By the way, the best game to watch are the Flyers versus, New Jersey Devils, New york Islanders, New York Rangers, Washington Capitals, and of course, our main rivals the Pittsburgh Penguins. You will not want to miss this.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
