Candy corn has been on supermarket shelves for at least a month already, the stress of school is just short of killing you, and everyone is struggling to understand why it’s not as cold as it used to be regardless of various charts and statistics proving that the earth's gradual warming is not so gradual anymore and we will more than likely be experiencing summer heat in December within the next eight years. This can only mean one thing–fall is here! Yes, the time of year when high school girls break out their big floppy black hats and graveyards feel a bit more whimsical. But wait, are you up to par with your fall bucket list? If not, don’t freak! Make this fall one to remember with these seasonal suggestions!

1. Step on a leaf

The air is crisp and the morning is light. Your nose is nuzzled into your Burberry scarf and your fists are dug deep into the bowels of your pea coat, and then you see her. Contoured to perfection, delicately placed just at the edge of the sidewalk, crunchy, a brownish-gray. You tell yourself no, you can’t be hurt again. You’ve fallen for her type before and it’s only ended in the disappointment of a limp leaf. But maybe, this time, is different, maybe she’s the one. You decide life is too short and take a chance. Extending your foot, a shadow casts itself over her paper-thin physique. You take a deep breathe and release, gifted with the sweet symphony of her brittle bones cracking under your trendy footwear. You open your eyes and realize you did it, you can live again, you can love again.
