Top 10 Reasons Why I Love Fall
Mark Bergkvist

Fall has been my favorite season for as long as I can remember. There's something about fall that makes it different than all the other seasons. Fall is different because fall constantly represents change. The weather is changing, the colors of leaves are changing, your classes are changing, the people you surround yourself with are changing, but most importantly, your intake of pumpkin spice lattes are changing! Just kidding about that last one... or maybe not. But fall is all about change, and it's pretty cool to know that a season serves far more than just what it's title states.

Here are my top 10 reasons as to why I absolutely love fall and you should too!


1. Fall weather is unbelievably calming

Think about it: walking around while taking in that brisk and fresh air is actually such an incredibly feeling. Summer is way too hot, spring is always up and down, and winters can get a bit too chilly. But... fall? Fall is the great balance of all of the above. Fall is perfect.

2. Reuniting with friends

Yeah, we all complain about having to go back to school, but lets be real here... admit it, you know you’re ready to go and catch up with all the friends you said you’d make plans with over the summer -- which you didn't… so yeah, it’s probably best to catch up now having those three months apart!

3. Fall means FLANNELS!

Flannels, flannels, FLANNELS! You can never go wrong with flannels in the fall -- it's a staple in the meaning of fall!

4. Fall attire is the best

I absolutely love dressing for fall because the options are endless! Fall clothing is the best clothing because you can easily dress up with a flannel, vest, and boots, or you can wear sweaters, hoodies, and sweatpants/leggings everyday with it being totally acceptable. It really doesn't take much to dress for fall.

5. Fall is picture perfect

The scenery is beautiful! When you go outside, take a look at your surroundings. The leaves are becoming crisp and orange as well as the sky which show all different tones of red and orange. You can be anywhere and the background makes it picture perfect. You can literally take a picture of a leaf and post it on Instagram and it'll look 100x better than it would if it was any other season!

6. All things PUMPKIN!

Fall means PUMPKIN EVERYTHING! Pumpkin carving.. pumpkin picking.. pumpkin...

7. Pumpkin Spice Latte

Who doesn't enjoy a warm cup of pumpkin spice latte on the go or even just at the coffee shop while reading a book? It's one of my favorite parts of the season! Seasonal drinks all the wayyyy!

8. Pumpkin Carving

Okay so maybe not everyone's pumpkin comes out like that.. ESPECIALLY mine, but it's still fun to attempt!

9. Pumpkin Pie

A warm piece of pumpkin pie topped with some icecream to go with that latte?! Yes please!!

10. Holidays!!

Just thinking about Thanksgiving dinner got me like...

And thinking about how fun Halloween is going to be got me like...


If these aren't enough reasons to love fall then I don't know what is! Fall is beautiful, calming, and all around nothing but positive vibes. As I mentioned earlier, fall is a season of change and it's amazing how one season could represent so much more than just it's title. And change is inevitable but it's up to you to make it a positive one rather than negative. Here's to new scenery, a new school year, and new beginnings!

Happy Fall! :)

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
