{From the Editor}
G iddy. It's that feeling you get when you step outside after your last class on Friday afternoon to the sun's warm embrace, enticing you to cure your cabin fever in the playful freedom of an ideal spring day. Especially when that Friday marks the beginning of spring break — here in Lawrence it was 84 degrees that day. I know it seems like years ago already, but rewind back two weeks and try to remember how you were feeling as the temperature began to rise and your week-long plans far away from the school grind became real. That feeling is perfectly summed up for me by quintessential feel-good summer jam "Feel It
All Around" by Washed Out, Youtube it,
folks. Really.
Spring inevitably usher in another kind of giddyness in young people — that of a blossoming romance. As the trees regain life and the flowers blossom, so do our hearts and hormones. New relationships come to fruition, new crushes develop and lovin' is on many minds as students ditch the winter blues in favor of summer love.
But I must give credit to Rachel Cheon for her use of "giddy" in this week's issue. Her feature story on the common mistakes students make in relationships examines that excitement felt in the early stages of a new relationship and how you can find out if it's truly meant to be. See page 11 for more.
Whether or not it works out long-term, that giddiness is a feeling we've all probably felt, appreciate and love. So enjoy it! Let the flirting and the chases commence, But remember, when it comes time to hibernate through the winter again, make sure you can stand the person you're slated to cuddle up with.
