Fall is finally approaching after a long and brutal summer. Say goodbye to the booty shorts and hello to over-sized hoodies. Fall weather is the perfect for a college student. The autumn season really brings out that true college feel to the campus where everyone is finally getting the hang of their classes, and it starts to feel like a routine. You pass the same people on your way to classes, you know exactly how long it takes to get from your dorm room you your first class and when you can cram that reading right before class. Fall brings out the best in every college student and here's why:

1. Hot coffee

We can finally drink those hot coffees without already dying from the heat outside. Instead, it warms up our insides on those chilly mornings. Iced coffee is great and all, but I'm looking forward to that lukewarm sensation that runs through your veins.

2. Sweatshirts and sweatpants

I don't know about the rest of college students but I can't wait to look as lazy as I feel some days. I'm looking forward to being able to go to class with soft fleece sweats instead of having chaffed thighs.

3. Boots

I am ready to break out the Uggs and combat boots. I'm only 5'1, so I can't wait to have that extra inch and added confidence.

4. Scarves

What makes any outfit look even cuter?

5. The campus changes colors

Those beautiful green trees are finally making their way into becoming that beautiful red-orange that defines fall. Campus transforms and brightens up your quad. Those leaves bring out that warm feeling of campus.

6. Having classes outside

No professor wants to be out in the blazing heat, but there's more of a chance that a class could be held outside with that occasional cool breeze blowing through.

7. Spontaneous outdoor adventures

Many college students like myself live for those spontaneous adventures. It's the last season before it starts getting really cold. So get out and go on that hiking trail before it gets too cold to be any fun!

So, all and all, get out there before it's too late! Take advantage of what this season has to offer including all of that limited edition pumpkin spice flavored coffee. Enjoy the weather and everything that fall brings with it!
