Fall is finally here! Now that is have arrived, it's time for all the fall activities to begin, so get ready to go out and get some artsy pictures. Make sure to definitely go out and try some of these activities out if you haven't already. Do it for the insta, snapchat, or Facebook photo if nothing else.

1. Pumpkin Picking

Of course we have to start off with pumpkin picking because it is the most iconic thing to do in the fall! Make sure to snap a pic with the biggest one!

2. Apple Picking

Basically any kind of picking is considered a fall activity so go find a local orchard and join the club!

3. Starbucks PSL

If you're not native to Starbucks, a PSL is code for Pumpkin Spice Latte, which are very popular this time of year.

4. Pumpkin Anything

While we're on the subject, pumpkin flavored anything will be a staple for you this fall. Companies all over the spectrum have pumpkin flavored things today such as pumpkin flavored Oreos, Chobani pumpkin greek yogurt, pumpkin spice cheerios and a lot more!

5. Autumn Candles

Candles are huge this time of year because they make your home feel and look cozy, but what is even more popular are the fall themed candles. Go pick yourself up a crisp apple pie or pumpkin spice candle, I know you want to.

6. Rep Your Favorite Football Team

Tis the season for crisp weather, leaves changing, and football games. Go to a game, rock your favorite team's jersey and have fun.

7. Wear a Flannel

Is there any better excuse to wear a flannel everyday of the week except for, it's fall. No, so go ahead and rock that autumn colored flannel while you're taking photos in a pumpkin patch!

8. Searching for the best costume

Much of the month of October is spent searching for the best thing to wear the last night of the month. Everyone goes through this so don't be ashamed. Go out and find your perfect costume!

9. Have a bonfire

There is nothing better than having a warm fire to hang near on a cold fall night. So get some friends together, get some snacks and have a good time.

10. Post Pics

There is no better time of year to get some awesome pics to post all over your social media. Whether you're going on a hay ride, picking pumpkins, or wearing your favorite chunky sweater there's always something to take a picture of. Take advantage of fall while it's here and have fun!

Anticipating The End Of Your First Semester, As Told By April Ludgate

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

National Writers Society

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

1. When you look at the syllabus and realize there are only three weeks of the semester left; even though the first day was LITERALLY yesterday.

2. You look at your grades and realize they probably aren't as high as they should be, which is a terrifying realization.

3. When you think to yourself at night, "tomorrow, I will wake up early and go to the library ALL day, and, hell, maybe after I'll go to the gym for a little bit, just to push myself that extra mile."

4. Tomorrow actually comes. The inevitable and overpowering sense of procrastination is too strong to overcome.

5. But you DO end up going to the library. Not all day though, but still, a while. But no, you do not go to the gym. Still, you made an effort, so you decide to treat yo' self.

6. When you realize you need to schedule a meeting with your adviser because you need to sign up for classes next semester. But you also realize that since you waited until the last minute, you're going to get stuck with all of the crappy classes.

7. When you low-key try to slip into conversation with your professors that you need extra credit because you're that desperate.

8. When it's already the third time you've seen your adviser in two days because you have no damn clue what you're doing and need all the help you can get.

9. When you apply for a job associated with your major even though you have no experience, but you just want to dive headfirst into the deep end of adulthood and get it over with.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.
