10 Things To Get Excited About For Fall Other Than The PSL

As September ticks along, the excitement for Autumn continues to grow. The first thing that many people think of when they hear of fall is the ever famous PSL (pumpkin spiced latte). However, with the pumpkin spice craze starting earlier than ever and with more foods and drinks flavored that way, the countdown to fall has begun. Let us peek into the future and see what all the fall hype is about.

1. No More Bugs

As the weather cools down, bugs seem to slowly disappear. This is a blessing to those of us who are prone to pesky, itchy, bug bites. Also, it means we find fewer bugs in our rooms that we have to kill!

2. Sweater Weather

Speaking of cooler weather, one of the best parts of Fall is the wardrobe change. Cozy sweaters, jeans, leggings, fuzzy socks, boots, and scarves are all getting good use again. There is nothing better than wearing an oversized sweater with leggings and fuzzy socks - so comfortable.

3. Fall Activities

The Fall season allows us to do cute, fun activities such as going pumpkin and apple picking, finding corn mazes, beer festivals, hayrides, and haunted houses. There is so much to do in the Fall months that every weekend could be booked with something new and exciting.

4. Halloween

Halloween is one of the best things about the fall. Who doesn't like an excuse to dress up and eat candy? In addition to that, there are always great movie marathons going on for the entire month of October. Most of the time it is usually horror movies, but you can usually catch Hocus Pocus or Halloweentown at least a few times!

5. Bonfires

Bonfires are a great social alternative to sitting inside and just hanging out. You are able to feel the warmth of the fire and make s'mores all while being with your friends. The bonfire smell on your clothes afterwards isn't half bad either.

6. Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving might come at the end of the season, but it is still one of the best parts of the Fall. You get to spend time with all of your loved ones and eat delicious food. In addition to that, you get time off of school also. There is really no complaining when it comes to this holiday.

7. Football

Football season is huge and a big part of Fall culture. From high school football games to college to the NFL, fall is where it all begins and everyone gets hyped. Start making the dip now for your football parties!

8. Hockey

Even though it might seem like Ice Hockey is a winter sport, the season actually starts in October! This might seem crazy but hockey fans all over the nation are rejoicing that the season is starting up again in just a little over a month.

9. Hot Chocolate

Hot Chocolate is a delicacy that is enjoyed when the weather is cooled down. There is nothing better than drinking a nice cup of Hot Chocolate on your way to class in the morning or at night while watching your favorite movies.

10. TV shows

Last, but definitely not least, Fall TV returns. All of our favorite shows on primetime networks generally return in the fall. Things like Modern Family, American Horror Story, Grey's Anatomy, Criminal Minds and so much more are all starting up again in just a matter of weeks. Let the countdown to fighting over the remote begin!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
