The Best Part Of Fall Is Everything

In This Article:

With summer finally gone, it's time to enjoy everything about fall. Even though summer includes school being out and warm weather, there's simply more to look forward to in fall. What do you love about the season?

Here are some of my favorite things that fall has to offer!

1. Eating and drinking everything pumpkin

Giphy

That's right! Go ahead and enjoy all the cookies, bread, lattes, beer, and cheesecake before it's gone. I love going to Trader Joe's to look around at what seasonal items they are selling during both the fall and winter time.

2. Picking pumpkins

Giphy

I love making sure that I pick the perfect one. It is the experience of being able to go and spend time picking your own that makes the entire experience more special.

3. Carving pumpkins

Giphy

Getting to carve pumpkins can take a while to do, but is such a fun activity to with friends and family. We always like to see whose pumpkin turns out the best amongst the siblings.

4. Getting spooky on Halloween

Giphy

I love helping my little sister pick out her Halloween costume, getting her ready for Halloween night, and walking her around our neighborhood to go trick or treating. When I was little, my brother and I would spread out all of our candy on the floor and trade with each other.

5. The crisp air

Giphy

Say goodbye to the muggy weather and enjoy not having to sweat everywhere you go! Also, your hair is saved from getting frizzy as well.

6. Fall clothing

Giphy

This is the perfect time to break out all of your boots, scarves, flannels, and sweaters. Not only are these clothes and accessories adorable, but they are also extremely comfy as well. I could wear a flannel all day and be completely content.

7. Turkey Day

Thanksgiving is by far the best holiday in my opinion. I love getting up in the morning to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade while starting to get all of the food prepared. This holiday isn't about presents or other material items, but is about being surrounded by the people and food we love the most! Who wouldn't want that?

8. Sitting by a bonfire

Giphy

There is something so enjoyable about being next to a bonfire to warm you up while talking to friends and enjoying a perfect night. Don't forget about roasting the marshmallows, though! Getting to actually make them is fun and all, but the best part is getting to eat them!

9. Football season

Giphy

Game day is always a great day! Preparing snacks for the game and then getting to eat them while sitting in the living room watching football is always a good time. It's even better when the team you are rooting for actually wins to top it all off!

10. Leaves changing colors

Giphy

One of the best views you can see are when the leaves all around are changing their colors before winter arrives. The mixture and brightness of the colors is a sight that never gets old. Next time you step outside when the leaves are changing, take a moment to look and take it all in.

While each season has its own perks, fall is one that can't simply can't be beat. Everything is wonderful from the pumpkin patches to celebrating Thanksgiving to the beautiful weather. Make sure you don't miss out on the best things that fall has to offer!

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.

11 Times Aubrey Plaza Described Sophomore Year

"I don't want to do things. I want to do not things."

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
