Here are some less-than-basic fall activities to try this season.

1. Listen to "BRIGHTSIDE" by The Lumineers.

I am kind of obsessed with this song, but it has excellent fall vibes and makes me feel at peace.

2. Make your own homemade applesauce.

Get yourself over to a fruit farm or even just the grocery store for some fresh apples and turn those bad boys into a delicious warm snack.

3. Learn to knit.

It is the start of sweater weather, so what if you could figure out how to make your own? Or at least a blanket or hat to stay warm!

4. Go hiking.

Now is arguably the best time for hikes because the colors are changing and the leaves are falling, so you will have the loveliest views and a great temperature as it starts cooling down.

5. Watch "Sweet Home Alabama".

I love Reese Witherspoon with my whole heart and soul, and this is a great movie to put you in the fall mood!

6. Read outside or by a window.

Something about cozying up with a good book while taking in the weather just screams fall to me.

7. Play cards on a weekend afternoon.

I feel like the vibes of weekend afternoons in the fall just hit different. Find a good and fun way to spend it!

8. Go thrifting.

This could be a great chance to pick out some new fall fits or maybe plan ahead for other seasons.

9. Spend a day with your best friend.

Life gets so crazy so fast, it's important to take time to spend with those so significant to us.

10. Take a break.

Finally, this time of year can be brutal. Especially when you're in school, things really start to pick up. it's important to not get too caught up in it all and to take care of yourself. Take a step back and a deep breath, do something to relax, and remember that you're doing great!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate.
