Forget the Pumpkin Spice Latte and slouchy sweater obsession that girls seem to all get by mid-September. Here is a list of real reasons why people are excited for fall to arrive.
1. Getting out of the in between weather stage where you can't figure out if you will be too hot in leggings or jeans.
2. Not sweating through your clothing by noon.
3. Having an excuse to not be seen going for a run outside.
4. If we're being honest, the artsy #fall Instagram opportunities are just too good.
5. Halloween candy. Not necessarily Halloween itself, but definitely the candy.
6. Nobody can judge you anymore for being ghostly pale.
7. Thanksgiving. A holiday dedicated solely to food; what else could you ask for?
8. Choosing between hot coffee and iced coffee becomes exponentially easier.
9. Say goodbye to bodycon dresses and tight shirts. Sweatshirts and sweatpants combos are a must.
10. Mowing the lawn turns into raking leaves, which everyone knows is the fun kind of yard work.
11. Baby Halloween costumes. When else are you going to see a baby dressed as a pumpkin?
12. You can have a pumpkin pie in your kitchen at all times and you won't feel absurd.
13. There are so many more excuses to not have to leave your dorm/apartment/house!
14. ABC Family "100 Days of Christmas" is already starting. Hallelujah!
15. After a long summer apart, you're finally back to school with your friends. (And you get to enjoy "basic" things together like PSL, yoga pants, infinity scarves, and fall-scented candles.)
