Stay gold Ponyboy
Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leafs a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
-Robert Frost
Today marks the first day of Autumn, true story, no lie. If I said fall was my favorite season you would probably be thinking, "Oh my gawd, me too!", but who doesn't love the fall? So you can't really claim it 'cause it's kind of like declaring you enjoy air or you invented walking.
More notable to me is that today marks one year since I graduated from college. I don't really feel like recounting everything that has gone down since then until now but you always have to ask yourself what you would say to yourself a year prior if you had the chance. I'd probably just tell myself to make sure I pressed E4 on the vending machine this morning and not F4 because then I will end up with oatmeal raisin cookies instead of a Butterfinger.
