8 Fun Things You Can Do Now That it is Fall
Alex Feehan

Fall is my favorite time of the year. The season is the perfect balance of summer and winter. I love the breezy weather, the falling leaves, the bundling up and so much more! Every year I cannot wait for fall to come around and here are eight reasons why!

1. Pumpkin picking

It’s always so much fun to go to a pumpkin patch with your best friends and have fun picking out pumpkins to ultimately take home with you!

2. Corn Mazes

The place that you went to go pumpkin picking with your friends might have a corn maze too and you will have tons of fun trying to find your way out of it, live snapchatting the whole way. Try not to get lost for two hours like we did though!

3. Pumpkin carving

It’s also a lot of fun to carve them pumpkins, they can be extravagant like this one or you could even just carve a simple smiley face!

4. Pumpkin flavored everything

Who doesn’t love pumpkin flavored muffins, cakes, pie, lattes, coffee, donuts etc.? The list goes on and on and you just have to indulge in your favorite pumpkin treat! By the end of fall you’re usually sick of pumpkin flavored everything, but that’s okay you have a whole year to want the treats again!

5. Sweater weather and boots

I know I love when I can finally throw on a sweater and boots without feeling uncomfortably hot. Oversized sweaters are the best on a breezy day and they make you look cute too!

6. Bundling up with a sweater, tea, and a good book

This kind of weather can often make you want to stay indoors bundled up in a blanket, with a nice cup of tea, reading your favorite book. It sounds like the perfect day to me!

7. Actually getting to sleep with a blanket

Finally, it is not 90 degrees in your room and you actually get to sleep with a blanket without having your fan on high. It’s amazing to not wake up feeling overheated!

8. Celebrate Halloween

Last but not least, the holiday that everybody looks forward to when fall comes around. You get to pretend to be someone else for a day and make amazing memories with your friends, what could be better?

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
