Your Guide To The Most UVA Fall Day

UVA may be at its most beautiful during fall. Students often express their love for autumn in Charlottesville, but I’ve found the experiences students enjoy lack variety. By that I mean everyone goes on basically the same five or so outings to get in the fall spirit. Since I’m admittedly guilty of all at least half of these pastimes, here’s my guide for how to live the most UVA fall day.

1. 6:00a.m. Be a pretty person running

2. 10:00a.m. Brunch so hard

Extra points if you wait an hour plus outside Bluegrass, order anything “bottomless” or reference The Breakfast Club or Breakfast at Tiffany's.

3. 12:00p.m. Hop over to the football game for the first quarter

Your dress needs enough orange to look festive, but not so much that you look like a traffic cone. You shouldn't know the name of the opposing team until they score.

4. 2:00p.m. Win or lose, leave to go pick apples by halftime

Once you arrive at Carter Mountain, be sure to only take pictures with apples and then buy donuts.

5. 4:00p.m. Stock up on an obnoxious amount of flannel

Make sure your flannel is sized to fit a Hemsworth brother instead of an average-sized college girl.

6. 6:30p.m. Make “fam” dinner with people who aren’t your actual family

You’ll probably cook pasta and catch it on fire. (I don’t know from experience or anything…).

7. 8:00p.m. Watch Nostalgic TV or Movies

Be sure to tell the people watching with you about how the song on the movie's soundtrack pulled you through seventh grade. Also, make a joke about the weird polo shirts.

8. 11:30p.m. Panic about schoolwork and don’t sleep until Thanksgiving

You shouldn’t even be reading this article. Stop procrastinating and study yourself into a coma.

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.

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.
