As the leaves are changing and the weather is cooling down -- it is finally fall time here in Michigan. Opportunities arise to get outside and enjoy the weather without having to sweat like in the summer or freeze in the winter. October is the perfect time to get out of the house because you have attractions that are fall themed or you can scare yourself with the Halloween attractions. Whatever you are interested in, whether it be romantic, scary or just fun, there is something for you.

1. Robinette's Apple Haus

What I love about Robinette's is their variety in activities. You have a corn maze, hay ride or you can enjoy apple cider and donuts in their kitchen area. If you are a wine fan you can also visit their winery and do a wine tasting and end it all with a sugar donut. This can be an all day date or even just an afternoon. Take your time to enjoy the scenery and explore their grounds.

2. The Haunt and Forest of Fear

If you love being scared then this will be your favorite. These two are classics and are always checked off every year on my fall to do list. The Haunt and the Forest of Fear will give you nightmares and regret your decision to come there but you always come back for more.

3. Grand Rapids Griffins

If you love hockey this will be a must on your list. Hockey season is upon us and if you are a huge fan like me you will want to go to every game. Friday nights there are $2 beer and hot dogs and on Wednesdays if they win you get free tickets to the next Wednesday game! They will keep you entertained as well as play their best to get another shot at going to the finals and winning that Calder Cup.

4. Cannonsburg

Cannonsburg is mainly a ski area but they open their grounds and have stuff to do even when the snow season is still not upon us. They have zombie paintball on Fridays and Saturdays as well as they are throwing a Big A** Halloween Party with the local radio station 104.5 SNX. Zombie paintball is fairly new and it is totally worth going but preferably when it is darker outside to get the full effect.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
