Fall Activities to do During a Pandemic

It's finally fall. Perfect weather for wearing a hoodie and sweats without dying of a heat stroke or somehow still freezing. But this sweater weather season is looking a little different in comparison to other years. Due to the pandemic, there are strict and necessary precautions in place at many attractions, limiting the number of guests, with some places even upping the price of admission due to the summer loss. But never fear, for I am here to give you some ideas (both at home and abroad) to make the most of this season!

Staying Home:

If going out isn't your thing, or you want to bring the outside in, then this is the spot for you!

  • Watch a Disney classic Halloweentown
  • Ubereats some Pumpkin Spice Lattes (from Starbucks, Dunkin, or your local coffee shop!)
  • Open up the windows and let some cool air in (and not from the air conditioner!)
  • Bake the Pillsbury sugar cookies



  • Rewatch the Harry Potter movies (warning: you might end up on harry potter TicTok but it's worth it)
  • Try your hand in baking or making some fall-flavored treats!

Going Out:

  • Go out and do some apple picking or a pumpkin patch! (My favorite is Demarest Farms in New Jersey!)
  • Take a nice brisk walk! (We could all use it after this quarantine)
  • Go get lost in a corn maze!
  • The Bronx Zoo has Boo at the Zoo from October 1st till November 1st where you can wear costumes and take part in fall activities!



Remember, whether you go out to do apple picking or just for a walk to get a Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, make sure you wear a mask and stay socially distant!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
