My favorite color is October and at this point, my blood type is pumpkin spice.
Fall is the time of year where the trees are beautiful, everything is pumpkin flavored, and I can finally start spicing up my all-black wardrobe with some cute scarves and boots.
There are many, many reasons why fall is better than spring, summer, and winter combined, but here are nine obvious reasons why fall is by far the greatest season.
1. You don't have to sweat pounds off just walking to class.
I speak for the majority of college students when I say that walking 15 minutes to class in 90-degree weather with the sun beating down right on you is not ideal. However, in fall you can walk to class with a nice cool breeze and not make others gag at the sight--or smell--of your sweat.
2. The trees. Just the trees.
Trees are great; they provide us with shade, food, and oxygen. However, nothing makes them stand out more than when their leaves begin to turn different shades of yellow, orange, and red. It's a sight for sore eyes, that's for sure.
3. Cute scarves
Now, I may wear black 24/7, but I do like to spice it up and throw a scarf on every once in awhile. There's no better time to do that than the fall.
4. Pumpkins
Pumpkins are the greatest vegetables in the history of vegetables. You can use them to bake so many different goods, and their iconic jack-o-lantern faces are amazing.
5. Thanksgiving
Nothing is more important to me than family, as I have expressed in many of my other articles. Getting to spend time with my family--while eating the greatest food ever--is something that I will forever be thankful for.
6. Halloween
Nothing screams fall like Halloween, with little kids dressing up in their favorite costumes and all of the college students going to "wild west" or "zombie" parties.
7. Boots
Boot season! You can finally pull out all of the cute booties and suede wedges. Boots are like scarves, they help spice up all of the plain outfits you have, and you sure as heck can't wear them during the summer or spring.
8. Cute dates
As cliche as they can be, going on a date to a pumpkin patch, apple picking, and even a picnic, are great date ideas for the fall. You can try all you want to, but you won't find a pumpkin patch during the summer.
9. Pumpkin spice freaking latte
We all knew this was coming, but Starbucks really did hit the nail on the head with their pumpkin spice latte. It's basically drinking fall from a cup.
