Fight for it
It is refreshing to see students standing up for what they believe in. While we may not agree with everything being said, it doesn’t really matter. So sincerely, thank you to all those fighting for freedom and justice. It is through your efforts that we can progress our society. Keep up the good fight.
Oh my gourd
Isn’t it sad that the once proud North American gourd is now relegated to synthetic syrups in Starbucks pump-bottles? The pumpkin is super cool! You can hollow it out and cook stuff in it over a fire! You can bake the seeds for a nifty treat! Don’t just buy a pumpkin to carve it and let it rot. It deserves better.

Try to find the bittersweet silver lining if possible, once you have the benefit of hindsight. The only thing you’ll have until the end of your lifetime is you. And we love you.
