7 Things I Love About Fall

Have you ever sat and thought about the seasons and realized that there is one season that you like more than the other three? For some it may be Winter, or Summer or even spring but for me it is fall. So here are the 7 reasons I love fall.

1. It's Not too Hot and Not too Cold

Hello hoodie weather! It is so great to be able to not really put much effort into getting dressed in the mornings because you can easily slip on a pair of jeans, a hoodie and a pair of boots. Because this is considered hoodie weather that also means you have a higher chance of making it to class on time!

2. The End Of The Semester

By this point you should be stressed out to the point where you don't know what day it is. The great thing about this reality is that the semester is almost over and then you can breathe, for like two weeks. Finals are around the corner but this just means that you are one step closer to your degree. It's okay, you will make it.

3. Thanksgiving

I have not met a person that does not like this holiday. This is a holiday where you're allowed to eat whatever you want and how much you want without being judged for it! Bring on the turkey and mac and cheese please!

4. Lipstick Colors

I know you saw those pictures floating around social networks with those pretty shades of maroon, purples and browns just ready to wear them. Well, here's the right season to do it. It is hard to not pick up the lipstick that is so close to the one you're already wearing, even if it does have just a tad more purple mixed in.

5. No Shame In Staying Inside

You want to stay inside and turn your heat up a bit and watch movies? Go for it. This is one of the best parts of fall, you can stay inside and nobody will ask you why. As soon as it gets dark outside which now is around 5:30 it starts to get colder. Who wants to be out in the winter temperatures?

6. Hallmark Christmas Movies

Remember all of those Christmas movies you watched over and over last year? They're back! I know you watched it before, but this is just another reason to love fall. All of the sappy "I love you because it's Christmas" movies are back. This is also a favorite of mine because now I know that I won't have to think about what to watch and wondering if what is on TV will in anyway have cursing and scenes that I rather not watch.

7. Family Time

You get another reason to see your family that you haven't seen since the family Christmas dinner last year. Hanging with family is great, you and your family get together and eat and talk and laugh. The best part of family time is the "Remember when" stage of the night where all of the stories you've heard a million times and new stories from the past come up and you learn about who your great grandmother was.


Fall is such a great time to make memories and relive them as well. Here's to Thanksgiving, and the smell of the Pine trees you will drag into your house to decorate the day after stuffing your body with foods.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
