It's going to be hard to leave behind the activities of Summertime, but don't worry! Fall is right around the corner, and it's a fantastic time of year. Here are a few reasons to look forawrd to Fall:

1.) Halloween

It's no secret that Halloween is great (spook-tastic, if you will). If you haven't dressed up in previous years, I highly suggest it! Go all-out with your costume ideas, or even get a group of friends and coordinate your costumes for a memorable Halloween night. For some extra fun, see if your town has any haunted houses. They can be equally fun for both dates or groups! There are also bound to be a few Halloween parties around town, so do some digging (Get it, grave digging?) and find out! Halloween comes but once a year, so take advantage of it!

2.) Food

This happens to be my personal favorite part of the season! Popular Fall flavors include cinnamon, apple, and--the Holy Grail--pumpkin spice. So, try some apple pie from your favorite bakery, toss some cinnamon into some hot chocolate, or make yourself some pumpkin spice cupcakes.

3.) Fashion

In most places, the temperature is starting to cool down. Pack up those swimsuits, and throw on a sweater! Whether you're male or female, sweaters and hoodies are the full package: fashionable, comfy, and perfect for night-time activities. Boots, scarves, and hats are Fall-favorites. Fall also brings out rich colors such as vibrant red, warm burgundy, yellow, and orange.

4.) Fall Sports

Now, you don't have to be athletic, nor do you have to understand the rules completely, but attending football games can be a lot of fun! Cheering for a team can be entertaining, and watching the cheerleaders and band perform is fun as well. Many people go to football games, so you can easily make new friends and meet a variety of personalities.

5.) Scenery

Fall brings all sorts of vibrant colors. The leaves start to change, taking on pigments of scarlet, deep amber, orange, and yellow. Taking a scenic drive through wooded areas can be breathtaking, and a hike the vivid colors can be relaxing and peaceful. So, get a group of friends together, or find a date, and explore the beauty Fall has to offer.
