But most importantly, the beginning of January brings about optimism and promise. We cast aside past mistakes, memories and mayhem, and openly await whatever life has in store for us. A new semester offers a fresh start and incentive to conquer the daily dilemmas of student life. As always, Jayplay is here to help (and now in full color!) We've got plenty of advice for those midnight-kissing couples, head-throbbing hangovers and far-fetched weight-loss goals. We look forward to bringing you information beyond what your resolutions may require. For example, check out Kansas in Heat on page 4 for tips about amping up your social life in the next decade. As the snow begins to melt and winter welcomes sunny days, our academic year will soon be over. Here's to the long nights,mounting stress and good times to be had in Spring 2010.
