Jerome the leprechaun gnome hopped into the cozy library, his pointy green hat nearly brushing the doorway.

Jerome had been diligently studying the art of brewing the perfect rainbow potion in his magical garden, and he decided it was time for a well-deserved break.
Jerome the Leprechaun gnome was not your average gnome. While most gnomes were content tending to their gardens or guarding their homes, Jerome had an insatiable curiosity for the world beyond his forest. So when he heard about a presentation of the Elton John movie “Rocketman” happening nearby, he knew he had to go.
Finding a cozy seat near the front, Jerome settled in and watched with rapt attention as the movie began. From Elton’s humble beginnings to his rise to stardom, Jerome was captivated by every moment. The music, the costumes, the drama – it was all like nothing he had ever seen before.
As the movie reached its climax, with Elton belting out his hits in a dazzling display of talent, Jerome couldn’t help but feel a swell of emotion. He may have been a gnome from a far-off forest, but in that moment, he felt a connection to the music and the magic of the silver screen.
When the credits rolled and the lights came up, Jerome wiped a tear from his eye and rose to his feet, joining in the thunderous applause that filled the theater. As he made his way back through the town and into the forest, Jerome couldn’t shake the feeling of awe and inspiration that the movie had left him with.
And though he may have been a tiny gnome in a big world, Jerome knew that he would carry the spirit of Elton John as he could really Rock-It-Man.

He shared his appreciation for all the adventures she shared with the campus community and wished her well on her future endeavors. With a twirl of his coat and a tip of his hat, Jerome bid Jess farewell, his departure leaving behind a bittersweet sense of nostalgia.

When the seasons change, so can your feelings.
As the temperature changes and daylight shifts, you may find yourself feeling sluggish, moody, or disinterested in your usual interests.
While this can be just a fleeting case of the “winter blues,” for some it’s a sign of seasonal affective disorder (sometimes abbreviated SAD). It is not unusual for students to feel this way, and may come as a surprise if you are accustomed to living in a sunnier and warmer climate, but you are not alone.
SAD lamps can (literally) brighten your day! SAD lamps like this one are used in light therapy and work by mimicking the intensity and effects of natural sunlight. So, if you want to literally brighten your day, take a seat, turn on the SAD lamp and hang out for a while!
