It’s hard to believe that by the time I sit down to write my next column the next president of this great nation will be elected. And maybe by then my news feed will finally cease to be a series of overly deterministic political statements. Honestly, I’m not hopeful. But I’m also at my wits’ end. At this point I’m just trying to maintain my sanity and my friendships. With eight days to go, hopefully these little tips will keep you from falling totally over the edge.

On behalf of the entire Cavalier Daily staff, I would like to extend a warm “Happy Midterms!” to all you lucky test takers out there — a.k.a. all of you. If you haven’t done so already, bid your roommate a fond ‘Auf Wiedersehen’ and get cozy in Club Clem because this seemingly endless time of year is just getting started. The nonstop flurry of tests and papers isn’t the only thing to look forward to, of course. There’s also the perpetual sleep-deprived, mentally drained, anxiety- and mucus-ridden zombie-like state many of you will be experiencing. Let’s face it: midterms blow. I can’t come up with a more elegant word to do this soul-sucking part of the year justice. I have no cure, but I do have some suggestions on how to make this trying time a little less miserable.

I hate to disrespect the great Andy Williams, but I have to say that fall is truly the most wonderful time of the year. I do, however, apologize for the far-too-early Christmas song reference. Let’s face it: Nothing is better than waltzing down the Corner wearing a cozy sweatshirt with a pumpkin spice latte in hand, in the shade of the newly changed trees’ red-gold leaves. And that’s saying something because I don’t even like coffee — or Starbucks for that matter.

Being back this fall has led me to realize I have a case of Peter Pan syndrome. If there were a Neverland for college students I — along with every frat boy — would definitely be there. Living in my own apartment off Grounds with my own bedroom and bathroom feels weird. I have nostalgically decided to dedicate my first column to the newest members of our community by passing on a little wisdom on how to take full advantage of first year from yours truly, an eternal first year at heart.
