Fall is my favorite season, and every year I get so excited for it to start. This year, however, I don't think I could be more excited for it because summer went by so slowly for me this year. Here are ten things I get most excited about for fall that make it my favorite season.

1. Decorating my living space with fall and Halloween themed decor

Every year I enjoy decorating my living space with fall and Halloween themed décor. It puts me in the spirit, and I'll often add more decorations each year.

2. Baking

Whether it be cobbler, pie, or some type of bread, there are so many recipes online that I like to make for fall. They are fun to make and taste so good!

3. Wearing fall outfits

When the weather gets cooler, it is perfect layering weather and I love to whip out sweaters, flannels, and all clothes fall colored like plaid, red, green, and orange.

4. Watching horror movies

Normally streaming services will add to their collection of horror movies for the month of October, and I like to use this opportunity to catch up on movies and become more in the Halloween spirit.

5. Going pumpkin picking

Visiting the pumpkin patch and picking out a pumpkin is probably my favorite thing about fall. I just love going to large patches that have corn mazes and other fall products and spend time there with friends picking out pumpkins, and taking pictures.

6. Drinking fall flavors

Apple cider, hot chocolate, cinnamon spice, and pumpkin spice are just some of the flavors that I love that come out during the fall. They taste so good and it feels special to drink them as restaurants normally only serve them during this season.

7. Putting together an iconic Halloween costume

Whether it's for a Halloween party or just to wear at home, I love thinking of something or someone I want to be and then coming up with a plan on how to put together the perfect costume.

8. Carving pumpkins

There are so many potential designs to carve, and I love designing one and carving it into a pumpkin. Plus, they look so cool lit up with a candle in them!

9. Listening to Halloween tunes

Though I love listening to what is popular on the radio, it can get a bit repetitive, and listening to Halloween music I find is the perfect way to get some variety as well get more into the Halloween spirit.

10. Thanksgiving

I love this fall holiday because it allows you to get together with your family and friends, eat, and show thankfulness.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

11 Times Aubrey Plaza Described Sophomore Year

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

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

What I Do When I’m Sick in College

I wish I had my mom.

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
