7 (Almost) Fall Y'all Ideas

In This Article:

The time has come, when the leaves change color. Shades of yellow, orange, red and so much more begin to devour the ground. I am not complaining, because this is an absolutely beautiful time of year. There is no denying that we become a bit calmer when fall is near. No more sweating when you first walk outside (kinda). Even though the weather isn't super cool, it is better than the July heat. Fall comes with so many fun activities. Try these out if you are super bored!

Hayrides

Who doesn't love a good hayride during fall? I personally can't go one year without going on at least one hayride. Find a local farm or maybe even a family friend who hosts a hayride fest. While you are riding remember to take in all the sights and colors around you. Have some hot chocolate while you are at it, if it is cold enough outside, of course.

Haunted houses

I am a HUGE advocate for spooky season. I know there has to be multiple haunted houses around you, so no excuse on this one. If you aren't a fan of scary things, no shame we have all been there. Still try it out, maybe you will conquer your fears and have fun doing it!

Corn maze

Most likely wherever you go for a haunted house, a corn maze will be near. So this one is so easy to check off your list. I know it sounds SUPER boring, but you would be surprised. Walking through a corn maze is more fun at night, if you ask me. It falls in with the haunted house category, and gives you an adrenaline rush.

PUMPKIN PATCHHHHH

Went a little crazy with the caps, but for good reasoning. Pumpkins smell and are a hassle, I know I know. Hear me out, if you don't get some type of joy from decorating tons of pumpkins I understand. Maybe carving and painting pumpkins isn’t your style, but doesn't mean you shouldn’t show them off. Snap some pics of you and the girls or guys, at the pumpkin patch and let the pumpkins capture the essence of fall.

Bake 

No, I don't mean bake your face with makeup. I am talking about the real, stove in kitchen, baking. With fall, comes two awesome holidays. Halloween might not be the most known for food, but doesn't mean you can't make some pies just for fun. Popcorn balls, brownies, cupcakes, or anything; pumpkin, cinnamon and of course chocolate flavored.

Festivals

Coachella is over (for this year), but many small towns have some very quirky, festivals of their own. Choose wisely, you might just end up at festival way out of your element of fun. On the bright side there are hundreds of festivals this time of year. Many are for shopaholics who will buy those pumpkin socks and the matching scarf. Definitely not hating, because I am that person. Just look up some new festivals in your town or close by, and even ask a fellow member of your community.

Football football and football

I could never forget about you. Wether you prefer junior high, varsity or college football; go out and support your team of choice. Tailgating is always something fun and entertaining for your weekend plans. Friends, food, football, fun = fall. It only makes sense to put the jersey on and ring your cowbell (or wave your pom-pom). Rooting on a team and staying till the end for a hopeful win is always an incredible feeling. Get out there and make the most of your fall!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
