6 Things To Look Forward To Now That It's Fall

Call me basic if you want but I prefer "spirited".

Well friends.. it's that time of the year again which makes for some stirred up excitement and great Thanksgiving stuffing. As summer has drawn to a close (even somewhat for Texas, shocker, I know) there are quite a few things to smile about.

1. Pumpkin Patches

From the beautiful scenery to the adorable pumpkin patch pictures, what's not to love?!

2. Flannels & Boots

Also known as "flannel season," these puppies are great for not only keeping you warm (if you get the right kind) but also keeping you fashionably up to date with the current Fall demands. However, we can't forget the boots. Uggs, Riding Boots, and Bean Boots. Let's face it though, you can never have too many flannels or well..shoes in general.

3. Pumpkin Spice Lattes

Bet you didn't see that one coming at all huh? Who am I kidding, that's probably the first thing that comes to your mind when the word "Fall" is even mentioned. No need to be ashamed though because believe it or not, most of the population is just as obsessed with these miracle workers as you are.

4. Four Words: Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas

One minute you're wearing a Batman custom and as soon as that clock strikes 12, that Christmas tree is up and ready to go, you're in your fuzzy (and itchy, just admit it) reindeer sweater with a cup of hot chocolate in your hands, some tacky Christmas socks on and a movie playing. No shame. None.

5. Thanksgiving Facebook and Instagram Posts

Ahhh, yes, the time to be thankful suddenly goes into full drive once you're sitting around that table with your loved ones and the turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, green beans, and gravy are all put out on the table.


6. Bonfires

There's nothing like those late nights where you're gathered with your friends around a pit of burning wood with the warmth from the fire blowing in your face, attempting to roast a marshmallow that eventually catches on fire, all while trying not to choke on all the smoke that just so happens to be blowing only in your direction. Hey, at least that s'mores still tasted great though.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
