9 Steps on How to “Fall” Like a Basic White Girl

1. Drink a Pumpkin Spice Latte everyday, starting the day they come out.  Instagrams/tweets/snapchats of it are necessary, otherwise did it really happen?  Bonus points if you frequent the beverage so often that you adopt to abbreviation PSL. 

2. Pick/carve/paint a pumpkin.  Or all three.  And definitely post before and after pictures.  Plus pictures of you in the pumpkin patch, cause you’re so fall and you heart nature. 

3. Take an artsy photo of the leaves changing.  Leaves on the ground, an “artsy” perspective of a very ordinary tree (leaves as they fall from a tree are probably the most difficult to capture).  To be super basic, take pictures with friends either throwing leaves in the air or jumping into a leaf pile.  Don’t forget the fake laughs.  Insert punny caption including the word “fall” (Maybe girls are the ones you should fall for and guys are just people to have fun with). 

4. Talk about how much you love fall all the time.  Insert it into every conversation possible.  Obviously do so while ignoring the fact that you say the same thing about every season (in the winter after a pretty snow fall, in the spring when the flowers bloom, or in the summer when you’re sitting tanned on the beach).  Tweet it constantly.  Make yourself stand out, cause most girls like summer and you’re different cause you like fall. 

5. Wear a chunky sweater/button down, dark wash jeans/leggings, riding boots and a scarf.  At all times.  The options allow you to dress it up or down, but you may not stray from the formula.  This is the white girl uniform of fall. 

6. Plan a Halloween costume that is clever, unique and sexy all at once, but forget being practical or comfortable.  Plan to freeze all day and night.  Bonus points if you don’t find a single girl with the same outfit (by dressing as any sort of animal, you forgo your bonus points). 

7. Show off your wifey skills and cook/bake something that is just sooo fall.  Bake some pumpkin bread, frost pumpkin cupcakes with cream cheese icing or grill up some squash that you got at the cutest farmer’s market that you absolutely love. 

8. Definitely go on Pinterest and look up fall crafts.  Start gluing fake leaves and mini pumpkins to as many projects as possible because you are festive and you love fall and ain’t nobody gonna forget it. 

9. Host a get together for a game, or actually brave it and go.  Make sure your outfit is on point and in all the right colors for your team (guys love that).  Temporary face tattoos or stickers on your cheekbone are a must.  You love sports, and especially football, because football season is during the fall AND YOU LOVE FALL.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.

As most of us already know, Friends is one of the greatest television series ever produced. The cast is genius. The humor never gets old. The episodes are relatable and timeless.

I can easily say that I have watched each season at least three times and I belly laugh harder every time. All Friends fans can agree that there are certain lines that form a bond between us and when heard one cannot help but laugh.

The infamous RBF is something I have and am known for. It’s kind of exhausting to be asked if you're okay all the time or being told to smile more. Girls with RBF get judged to be mean and rude much quicker than the girl who is always smiling. It’s true and just plain natural for someone who is generally smiling all the time to come off as more trustworthy and I've gotten used to it. I used to think that having a Resting Bitch Face was only a bad thing until I realized that just like anything else, it also has its perks. Having a permafrown with a piercing look comes with great power.

Parks and Rec

We all know that Parks and Recreation is one of the greatest shows ever to air on TV. As we watched every episode, we all found a piece of us in each character (even Jerry). From the moment we met the pit, to the time we saw it flourish into a beautiful park, we all had developed a little bit of Pawnee, Indiana in our hearts.
