12 Signs You May Be A Fall-A- Hollic

e thought of leaves changing and temperature drops make your heart pound with joy? Do you frequently check your Weather Channel app in hopes for that first under 70 degree day? Do you have an extensive knowledge of all the cider mills, and haunted houses within a 50 mile radius? Well then, you my dear friend might be a Fall-A-Hollic. We are a proud gang of people, eagerly awaiting those few precious weeks from right after Labor Day until right after Thanksgiving where the Pumpkin Spice lattes flow and the scary movies are packing our DVRs. Still not sure? If most of these apply to you then welcome aboard.

1. The last weeks of summer are bitter teases.

Come on! We've had months of ice cream and fireworks. Lets get on with Labor Day so I can quit shaving my legs and slink in to my ever comfy legging/ Ugg boot combination.


2. You have Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte launch date on your calendar.

I knew a girl who had it in her phone and in her planner. That girl might have been me. Is there such a thing as too many PSLs? Me and the other million women who drink pumpkin spice everything do not think so.

3. Spirit store pop-ups are your go to time killer.

From Labor day weekend until Nov 1st if you have free time chances are you're probably killing it walking through a Halloween store. You can not just walk through once, its an addiction. Don't be ashamed embrace it!

4. Uggs, Crewnecks, and Leggings are your spirit animal!

Again after months of leg shaving took look good in those bikini Instagrams, you are looking so forward to the sweet release of leggings. You can wear them anywhere and everywhere and its literally the best thing ever. Add Uggs and a crewneck and you're good to go to school, shopping, on a date. Who cares, you're comfy.

. AMC Frightfest and ABC Family's 13 Nights are filling up you're DVR.

Slasher films and Tim Burton movies are the essence of Halloween. How many times can you watch Hocus Pocus? Infinite that is the answer.


6. You'd give anything to be at an orchard every weekend.

Apple orchards are the bomb. com. They're the perfect place to score picture perfect Instagrams and eat your weight in apple cider donuts!

7. Cider and donuts are your go to snack!

Like I said its an addiction. Breathe, sleep, and eat fall. Whats more fall than cider and donuts for breakfast? Nothing. If someone questions that, then get rid of those negative vibes.

8. Your Halloween costume is always on point.

Whether its groups or solo your costume is always the prize winner. No cost is too high, no dream to ambitious. People are literally waiting for the unveiling of your yearly creation.

9. You can be found at a new haunted house every Friday and Saturday night in October.

Literally nothing is too scary for you. You've seen it all. From contortionists to chainsaw massacres you are a fearless warrior working your way down the line of your yearly haunts.

10.You never pass up the chance to by something to make your home more "fall'.

Pumpkin candles, pumpkin window clings, pumpkin toilet seat cover, you name it chances are it can be purchased at Target or ordered off Amazon. Shout out to Bath and Body works for their yearly line up of fall body lotions, and sprays so not only is your Scentsy kicking out the fall vibes but you're oozing Apple Cinnamon too.

11. You research pumpkin carving designs.

The books are great, sure. But they aren't for you. You're the person who has a tool wall set aside for this perfect occasion. When most people only do one pumpkin, your porch is covered in little orange and white masterpieces.

12. You would trade a house party for a bonfire in a second.

The heat and think smell from the fire mixed with the cool night breeze is like a drug to you. Not to mention its the premium time to score some cuddles.

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.

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.
