The fall has a little bit of something for everyone. Whether you can't wait to see the leaves change, dress up as your favorite character during Halloween, or just enjoy the the seasonal treats. Even if fall is not your favorite season, there are so many things that will make your October full of warmth. Here are a few of my favorites:


1. Pumpkin picking

Just as apple picking is coming to an end, October does not let down with its perfect pumpkin picking atmosphere. Whether you go with a partner, your best friend, or your family, pumpkin picking outings are full of apple cider, tractor rides, corn mazes, and yes, pumpkins. After you find that perfect pumpkin, be sure to decorate and carve it!

2. Reliving your childhood with Disney channel Halloween movies

I can’t speak for everyone, but personally I believe the Halloween Disney movies are the greatest movies ever. From Halloween Town, to Hocus Pocus, to Casper, these movies allow you to be a kid again, forget your daily stress, and enjoy the season. Snuggling up with a pumpkin spice latte and popcorn is a must.

3. Seasonal Treats Come Out

October is when it becomes socially acceptable to eat anything orange. This is when Starbucks launches its Fall specialty drinks, oreo’s are stuffed with pumpkin filling, and pumpkin pie becomes a legitimate breakfast choice.

4. Everything Starts To Change

We begin to see those orange and red leaves forming, feel the transition to cool, crisp air, and unpack those flannels we stored away over summer.

5. Halloween

This is a pretty obvious reason. Halloween means creative costume contests, haunted houses, and themed parties. It also means you can eat candy all day and nobody will judge you.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
