LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
A nervous expectation, an intense yearning or even a wave of suspense… Anticipation has many forms, and there is no better time to explore them, than the start of a new school year. For many this will be your first time entering University, for others your first in-person classes or perhaps the beginning of a co-op. Regardless of your situation, September usually has at least one thing that sets our nerves on fire, and leaves us clinging to the edge of our seats.
In this issue we delve into this world, and learn about some of the things that left a strong impression with you this month. In the following pages, you will see cancelled plans yielding pleasantly surprising results, the role anticipation plays in everyday life, musical inspirations and more.
As you flip through the pages, we hope you will experience your own ignition of anticipation! Suspensefully yours, Cr ta C m s Editor-In-Chief.
