Fall is around the corner, and I can't wait for it! I love warm fall sweaters, apple cider, and all the fun that fall brings. I'm sitting here with my roommate day-dreaming about fall, so why not dedicate a whole article to the second most wonderful time of the year (with the first being Christmas)! Sit down, relax, and daydream with us about all the fabulous fun that fall will bring...
1. Go apple picking
Apple picking is a must for fall! Gather your roommates, friends, and family because the more people you bring, the more apples you can put in your pockets! (Sorry, but a bushel and a peck are very expensive for college students. If Doris Day loves you a bushel and a peck, you better believe that it's a lot!)
2. Go pumpkin picking
And after you pick the perfect pumpkin, watch "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!" It's a classic and it will make you remember how much you disliked Lucy.
3. Watch football games
Saturdays are for the boys!
4. Decorate for Halloween
What's better than putting on a witch hat and decorating your house with fake spiders and spider webs? Nothing. The answer is nothing.
5. Buy a Halloween costume
I don't care how old you are because EVERBODY should dress up for Halloween! It's an excuse to wear the things you'd rather be wearing every other day of the year. (I would love to be a princess and wear a gown every day, but unfortunately, I have to conform to social standards to make it in this world.)
6. Buy a PSL from Starbucks
Every person becomes an Ugg boots-wearing, PSL-drinking white girl in the fall. It's inevitable.
7. Bake pies
Apple pie, pumpkin pie, blueberry pie... all pie warms the heart and soul!
8. Get lost in a corn maze
It's not fun if you don't get lost! It may take hours, but if you get hungry just grab some corn, husk it, and eat it!
9. Have a bonfire
I always love to make the fire myself, so I can show off to my friends that I don't live in the upstate New York woods for nothing.
10. Go out to dinner at Smalley's!
This is me at Smalley's Restaurant in Carmel, NY. It is my favorite restaurant that is supposedly haunted, so it is a favorite in my town for Halloween. This is an embarrassing picture of me in October of 2010 during my awkward middle school years. If you read this far in the article, you have the right to make fun of this picture of me. I wish that all of you have a fall as fun as I did back in 2010!
