14 Things To Put On Your Fall Bucket List

I couldn't help but feel a little sad this week as I put away the last of my summer clothes, and reminisced on all of the memories I made this past warm, sunny summer. Every summer I make a bucket list of all of the exciting things I want to do while school is out of session. This led me to thinking, why don't we make bucket lists for the fall as well? Although we spend a lot of our time in class, there are still so many opportunities to take advantage of the beautiful season. So, here are the top things you should make sure to do this Fall.

1. Run a 5K

There are so many great organizations that sponsor 5Ks, and there are so many opportunities in the fall to sign up for one.

2. Spend a Sunday afternoon watching NFL football

This is one of my favorite things about fall. There is always a game to watch on Sundays!

3. Tailgate

Get your friends together and go to a game!

4. Buy a pumpkin spice latte

We wait all year for the return of this latte. Make sure to get a few before we have to say goodbye to them for another year.

5. Go on a hike

Fall, in my opinion, is the most beautiful season. We wait all year for this beautiful season to arrive, so enjoy it while it lasts!

6. Go to a petting zoo

One of my girlfriends just did this with her boyfriend, and said that it was the best date of her life.

7. Watch scary movies and make apple cider

Nothing is better that cuddling on a chilly autumn day with a hot cup of apple cider and a scary movie to get you in the mood for Halloween.

8. Bake

There are so many great fall recipes. Make pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, or pumpkin anything.

9. Carve a jack-o-lantern

Bring back childhood memories and spend an evening carving pumpkins.

10. Go fall clothes shopping


Fall provides you with an excuse to take a trip to the mall to buy an oversized sweater, fall boots, or scarf.

11. Donate to charity

The fall and winter months are miserable for people who don't have warm clothes. Find a charity and donate to those in need.

12. Have a campfire

Grab your blankets, s'mores and friends and cuddle around the fire. This is a great way to make memories this fall season.

13. Make your own Halloween costume

You can be as creative or simple as you want to be! You'll have a blast putting together your costume.

14. Go to a country concert


Wear your flannel and enjoy a great concert.

Happy fall everybody!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
