4 Ways To Celebrate Fall All Year Round
OC Jordan

When you're in your school years, summer is often the season of choice, mostly because of summer break.

But now that I'm almost 24 and feeling like a real adult, I have a new appreciation for autumn. I love the cooler weather, the leaves changing colors, the electric bill that's not nearly as ridiculous, and using rolled down windows in place of air conditioning. And I'm not alone. In fact you, the person reading this right now, probably have a ridiculous and far-reaching love for autumn. So don't listen to those naysayers! Use these tricks to celebrate fall all year round.

1. Make Indoor S'mores

There's something about autumn campfires that stick with you, and part of that is the marshmallows! Hah! Get it? ....Anyway, even the thought of having a s'more--a sticky, gooey, marshmallowy, chocolatey, graham-crackery goodness is enough to make you wish it was fall. But you don't have to have a campfire to make them! Follow this link for the recipe.

2. A Skull Coat

Fall means Halloween, and Halloween means skull print! You can look classy and spooky in this extra long pea coat. And don't worry about wearing it whatever season it is! It's just flowery enough for a rainy spring day, and dark enough for winter. You might want to skip summer, though, since that would be a little hot.

3. Make A Bookmark

As a child you probably pressed leaves or flowers at some point. Autumn leaves are so beautiful, so why not save them to look at when all the trees are bare? It may even last you until the new green leaves are on the trees again. There are many ways to do it, but you can find one set of instructions here.

4. Buy a Mini Fireplace

Nothing is quite as cozy as sitting around a fireplace when the weather starts to change. With this mini fireplace, you can have a small fireplace in your apartment or home, even if there's not one built in!

Autumn happens only once a year, but that doesn't mean you have to leave behind the traditions all year long!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
