The 5 Best Things About Fall
Maggie Cretens

Fall is a season of many changes. Between the leaves changing on the trees and pumpkin spice lattes coming back there is so much to look forward to. Not only do changes occur around us, we have to make many of our own to prepare for colder weather that's coming. Living up north, you can never put your thumb on when cold weather will start so at least taking your winter coat out and finding your favorite pair of mittens is a start to accepting snow is coming. Having around two months of fall is a nice ease into the cold winter that lies ahead.The five best things about fall from least to greatest are:

5. Blanket Scarves.

Blanket scarves are an essential fashion accessory for fall. Not only do they go with anything and everything, you can wear them in many different ways. They are also very comfortable and keep you warm in the cold mornings you encounter. The only problem is when noon comes around you're dying of heat, but luckily they're easy to take off.

4. The Air.

There is something about fall air that just gets me. Maybe it's because there are no more major heat waves coming through and I'm not dying from feeling on fire 24/7. Fall air is so refreshing to many because it's just so crisp. The air is not too cold yet but is't terribly hot it's a nice medium that only sticks around for a couple of months.

3. Shoes.

Fall is such a nice transitioning period because you can wear whatever you want to wear for shoes. You don't have to wear clunky winter boots quite yet, but you can still wear your summer favorite such as crocs or Sperry's and not have to avoid snow piles yet.

2. Pumpkin Spice Lattes.

There I said it! The best fall drink BY FAR is the honored Pumpkin spice latte! They are a seasonal drink that just about everyone looks forward to each year. Throughout the years PSL's have gotten so hyped up its almost too "mainstream" to say you like them. Many like to deny they do but I think deep deep down we all look forward to them!

1. Changing Leaves.

The leaves changing is by far my favorite part of fall! Going for drives up the shore or just around town admiring the beautiful fall colors is such a refreshing thing to do. It amazes me how some trees can be all red, or all yellow, and others can be yellow, green, and red! It truly is a work of nature. Cheers to fall!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
