7 Date Idea's To Spice Up Our Fall In Quarantine

I know being single in quarantine isn't exactly ideal right now. But, we have to make the best with what we've got. With fall coming in, cuddle season is about to begin. I know most of us have probably met someone that you have been talking to throughout this quarantine. If you have, here's a list of date ideas to spice up this cozy season and try something besides facetime.

Pumpkin Patch and Carving Night

September is almost over and Halloween is around the corner. This holiday always creeps up on us no matter how far away it seems to be. Set aside a weekend to get dressed up in your favorite fall outfit and take your significant other to the pumpkin patch. After, brew up some hot cocoa and put on your coziest pj's and get to carving!

Whether you go on a camping trip this fall and have a bonfire, or just get a small fire pit going in your backyard, you're bound to have a good time. Pick up some smores supplies and maybe a few friends and get the campfire conversations started.

Halloween Horror Movie Night

I am not one to sit down and watch a scary movie on a daily basis, but when it comes to Halloween season, that's all I can seem to watch. Pop some popcorn, pick out a few scary movies, and cuddle up with your significant other!

I know with COVID Halloween isn't going to be the same as it has been in years past, but the haunted houses are still opening up. These businesses are still following CDC guidelines and if you're comfortable with it, treat yourself with a fun night out! You only have the opportunity to get scared by 'monsters' once a year!

Pumpkin Pie Baking Night

I know most of us are going to end up buying a pumpkin or two this fall. Of course carving it is the most fun part about it, try saving the 'guts' that we all usually throw away and try to bake a homemade pumpkin pie. Even if it doesn't turn out to be the best tasting pie you've had, it's worth a shot!

Costume Contest, CDC Style

I know with COVID we aren't gonna be able to have big Halloween Parties like we have had in the past. But, we are allowed to have gatherings up to ten people. Set a theme for a costume party, grab your date and few friends, and see who comes best dressed!

Stargazing

With the weather cooling down, it is finally the perfect time for stargazing. I know you can go anytime of the year, but fall stargazing is my favorite because you get to put your coziest sweater on and cuddle up with you significant other and have a romantic night under the stars.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
