A little over a month ago, as the 2020 election came to a head, “October surprises” from fake news stories in the New York Post to the affairs of Senators captured attention.

As Princeton students, I can guarantee we all sometimes consume scandalized news as a form of entertainment.

Thus, in order to prove his undying commitment to her, he concocts a grand, public, meaningful gesture to win her back.

It’s Hugh Grant asking Julia Roberts about their relationship in front of the press in “Notting Hill.” It’s every cliché airport reunion or wedding interruption or onstage profession of love. The love interest, of course, is wholly charmed and the entire experience is lauded as the epitome of romance. They kiss. The extras applaud. The virtue of the protagonist is proven and the scene serves as a pipe dream for viewers everywhere. The end.

In October, Danielle Dockx ’18 sat in the stands of Globe Life Park in Arlington, Texas, as her employer — the Tampa Bay Rays — competed for the World Series. It was not always the path she envisioned for herself during her time studying and playing softball at Princeton.

Released in July, Taylor Swift’s eighth studio album, “folklore,” surprised music fans worldwide.
