6 Reasons To Get Excited For Fall

Bye summer, hello fall.

6 Reasons To Get Excited For Fall

So it is now September and fall is soon upon us. Fall could possibly be one of my favorite times of the year and here is why.

1. It is not too cold that you have to pull out a heavy winter jacket but yet you can still rock your stylish new long sleeve and sweater that you just bought.

I recently just purchased a new Michael Kors fall coat that I am so excited to wear.

2. Going back to school.

What's not to love about college? You get to live with your best friends 24/7, sleepovers every night! No rules, no curfews, you are on your own to explore new friendships and learn new things. For someone who has a little OCD organizing my binders gives me a weird sense of euphoria.

3. Pumpkin Spice Lattes.

Personally I am not a huge fan of this but it is know to be the common “college girl” fall drink. Yes, I am talking about you pumpkin spice lattes from Starbucks. Starbucks’ stock must go up a tremendous amount in the fall. I am much more of a caramel apple spice person but don't worry all those girls who wait all year for their PSL it shall be returning soon.


4. Sunday nights are now designated for wings and football.

Even better then watching the game on TV with a plate full of wings and burgers is actually going to the game. Getting up to get dressed in your team’s colors and freezing your butt off seeing people tackle each other.

5. I’m fortunate to live in the northeast where the fall foliage is legendary.

I love watching the leaves change from green to yellow, orange and red. I sometimes wish that the colors would stay like that all year, but then I guess I wouldn’t appreciate the beauty as much.

6. But the absolute best part of fall is apple picking.

There is something to be said about picking your own apples. As a short person I always need a tall companion to help me out because the short people problems are real. After you spend an awesome day in a beautiful place, using the apples to make apple pies and apple cider on a fall evening could not be a better experience.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
