10 Fun Fall Activities
Maria Khan

Autumn is one of my favorite seasons! There is just something about seeing the leaves on the ground and wearing my favorite leather jacket. It just puts me in a good mood. Unlike winter, fall has weather that is tolerable. I don't know about anyone else, but I do not look forward to nose icicles and black ice when winter arrives. I can tolerate the snow, from afar. There's just something about seeing the Boston Commons, Beacon Hill and The North End covered in foliage. It's simple but beautiful. The smell of cinnamon and spice candles just sets a calming mood for the rest of the day. Here are some ideas for things to do in the fall!

1. Take a stroll through Harvard's Arnold Arboretum located in Jamaica Plain.


2. Go apple picking! Who doesn't like apple pie with a bit of vanilla ice cream on the top?


3. Actually make a pie! Why stop at apple pie? There's pumpkin, blueberry, etc!

4. Have a movie marathon! Whether it's a scary halloween movie or a fun Disney movie, take a day to relax and kick back!


5. Visit your local coffee shop and just read a book! Sometimes it's nice to disconnect from your phones and just read. Or you can people watch, don't act like you've never done it!


6. See a theater performance! It doesn't have to be an expensive show. Check if your school does discount ticket for students!


7. College Nights at a local museum! The Museum of Fine Arts and Museum of Science hold special overnight events for college students. Just check your local area if there are any special events for adults, kids, etc.


8. Visit local thrift/vintage shops, you never know what you may find! It's okay if you have only twenty dollars in your pocket, but don't get any ideas about popping tags from Macklemore.


9. Explore a farmer's market. Local, affordable, and farm-grown? Sounds good to me!


10. If you don't like the farmer's market or don't like cooking, visit a food festival or brewery!

These are just some ideas for fall activities! They seem fun, affordable and simple! Try new things this fall, it may lead to a new hobby or interest.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

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.

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.
