It's going to be hard to leave behind the activities of Summertime, but don't worry! Fall is right around the corner, and it's a fantastic time of year. Here are a few reasons to look forawrd to Fall:

1.) Halloween

It's no secret that Halloween is great (spook-tastic, if you will). If you haven't dressed up in previous years, I highly suggest it! Go all-out with your costume ideas, or even get a group of friends and coordinate your costumes for a memorable Halloween night. For some extra fun, see if your town has any haunted houses. They can be equally fun for both dates or groups! There are also bound to be a few Halloween parties around town, so do some digging (Get it, grave digging?) and find out! Halloween comes but once a year, so take advantage of it!

2.) Food

This happens to be my personal favorite part of the season! Popular Fall flavors include cinnamon, apple, and--the Holy Grail--pumpkin spice. So, try some apple pie from your favorite bakery, toss some cinnamon into some hot chocolate, or make yourself some pumpkin spice cupcakes.

3.) Fashion

In most places, the temperature is starting to cool down. Pack up those swimsuits, and throw on a sweater! Whether you're male or female, sweaters and hoodies are the full package: fashionable, comfy, and perfect for night-time activities. Boots, scarves, and hats are Fall-favorites. Fall also brings out rich colors such as vibrant red, warm burgundy, yellow, and orange.

4.) Fall Sports

Now, you don't have to be athletic, nor do you have to understand the rules completely, but attending football games can be a lot of fun! Cheering for a team can be entertaining, and watching the cheerleaders and band perform is fun as well. Many people go to football games, so you can easily make new friends and meet a variety of personalities.

5.) Scenery

Fall brings all sorts of vibrant colors. The leaves start to change, taking on pigments of scarlet, deep amber, orange, and yellow. Taking a scenic drive through wooded areas can be breathtaking, and a hike the vivid colors can be relaxing and peaceful. So, get a group of friends together, or find a date, and explore the beauty Fall has to offer.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
