It is finally October, which means it is officially fall. Not that half fall in the morning and then sweating in the middle of the day stuff. The full on, cold all day, leaves falling, need a nice cute jacket weather we have been waiting for. Fall is without a doubt the best season, here are the top reasons to be excited:

1. The clothes

Any girl knows that fall clothes are the cutest. A cardigan, boots and jeans are all you need to make a cute outfit. For the guys, this means leggings and all girls know how much guys LOVE leggings. As a friend of mine says, “it’s legging season!"

2. The leaves

If you don’t take pretty photos of the scenery around you are you even doing fall right? The answer is no. Leaves falling and changing colors is the whole point of fall. So take advantage of what Mother Nature is showing you.

3. Pumpkin Spice…EVERYTHING

Yes, pumpkin spice is important and is a major reason to be excited for the fall. PS gets a lot of heat for being “basic” but even the people who hate it love it. Just admit it and order your PSL with confidence.

4. Halloween movies

"Hocus Pocus", "Halloweentown", "Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin", and many more make staying in and sipping apple cider sound perfect on a cool night.

5. Best holidays

Speaking of Halloween that is another reason fall is the best, that and the fact that Thanksgiving is right after. Who doesn’t like getting dressed up with their friends? And who doesn’t like a holiday that’s focus is solely around a meal?

6. Candles

Fall scents are the best. Autumn leaves, apple spice, sweater weather, they just sound so cozy and nice.

7. Football season

Football is back which means that going tailgating and drinking on a Sunday morning is 100% acceptable.

8. Fun excursions.

Those fun insta photos with the squad picking apples and/or pumpkins are always on your feed, but you know you love them and taking them.

9. The weather.

Fall weather is perfect. It isn’t too hot or too cold. The sun is still out at 7 and it doesn’t make you feel like it is midnight when it is only 5pm.

10. Fall TV.

After catching up on Netflix all summer your favorite shows are finally back with a few new shows to get hooked on.

11. One step closer to Christmas.

Finally, soon it will be time to be holly and jolly and blast that Christmas music. And watch "The Grinch".

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Top 20 Thoughts College Students Have During Finals

The ultimate list and gif guide to a college student's brain during finals.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
