8 Fun Things You Can Do Now That it is Fall

Alex Feehan

Fall is my favorite time of the year. The season is the perfect balance of summer and winter. I love the breezy weather, the falling leaves, the bundling up and so much more! Every year I cannot wait for fall to come around and here are eight reasons why!

1. Pumpkin picking

It’s always so much fun to go to a pumpkin patch with your best friends and have fun picking out pumpkins to ultimately take home with you!

2. Corn Mazes

The place that you went to go pumpkin picking with your friends might have a corn maze too and you will have tons of fun trying to find your way out of it, live snapchatting the whole way. Try not to get lost for two hours like we did though!

3. Pumpkin carving

It’s also a lot of fun to carve them pumpkins, they can be extravagant like this one or you could even just carve a simple smiley face!

4. Pumpkin flavored everything

Who doesn’t love pumpkin flavored muffins, cakes, pie, lattes, coffee, donuts etc.? The list goes on and on and you just have to indulge in your favorite pumpkin treat! By the end of fall you’re usually sick of pumpkin flavored everything, but that’s okay you have a whole year to want the treats again!

5. Sweater weather and boots

I know I love when I can finally throw on a sweater and boots without feeling uncomfortably hot. Oversized sweaters are the best on a breezy day and they make you look cute too!

6. Bundling up with a sweater, tea, and a good book

This kind of weather can often make you want to stay indoors bundled up in a blanket, with a nice cup of tea, reading your favorite book. It sounds like the perfect day to me!

7. Actually getting to sleep with a blanket

Finally, it is not 90 degrees in your room and you actually get to sleep with a blanket without having your fan on high. It’s amazing to not wake up feeling overheated!

8. Celebrate Halloween

Last but not least, the holiday that everybody looks forward to when fall comes around. You get to pretend to be someone else for a day and make amazing memories with your friends, what could be better?

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

1007

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
