What We Can Learn From Autumn

As leaves fall, and there is a crispness in the air, we also have a chance to learn a thing or two!

What We Can Learn From Autumn
Visual Hunt

As the temperature has started to drop, and the leaves have begun to fall off the trees, the Fall season has definitely welcomed itself with a wave of crimson and yellow hues. Along with providing us with its visual beauty, this season also offers us the chance to learn a few life lessons, too.


1. It is necessary to let things go.

Just in the same way that trees have dropped their leaves, we need to remember that we should let things go when they have essential become "dead" to us. Trees know it's time to let the leaves go that are no longer serving them and helping them live, so maybe we should follow by example and do the same every once in a while.

2. Change is good.

As the season changes, nature is aware of this change and takes the necessary steps to prepare for that change. Although sometimes when we can't always see change coming, it's always good to realize that it's inevitable in life and that it's going to happen, so why not embrace it?



3. Take a break.

Trees have started to lose their leaves to make room for new ones to grow, seeds have started their growth process in anticipation for the Spring season, and animals everywhere have begun their preparation for hibernation in order to recharge for a busy and beautiful spring season. Nature uses the fall season to relax and recharge, so why shouldn't we?

As humans, we are lucky to live in world that has Autumns, because along with giving us a beautiful spectacle full of rich color, they also allow us to reflect on ourselves.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
