Labor Day has come and gone meaning one thing: the unofficial start to fall. Whether you like it or not, cold weather will soon be upon us along with a never-ending list of things signifying the changing of seasons. Here's s list of my all-time favorite things that go hand in hand with autumn. Did your favorites make the cut?

Pillsbury Ready To Bake Holiday Cookies

I don't know why, but for whatever reason these cookies always taste best when they're the ones that have pumpkins or Christmas trees on them.

Sweaters and Boots Weather

Fall is perfect because you can just throw on a sweater and yoga pants paired with high boots and you automatically look super cute plus people will think you actually tried to dress nice. What could possibly be better than that?

S'mores and Bonfires

Summer bonfires and pool parties are fun and all but nothing is quite like the feeling of sitting in the cold with flames glowing in front of you keeping you warm.

Changing Leaves

Fall holds some of the most beautiful colors to ever appear on Earth. Well maybe that isn't exactly the case but the arrangements of reds, yellows, browns, and oranges sure are mesmerizing and make you wish the leaves would hold on forever.

Pumpkin Spice Everything

Lattes? Ice cream? Oreos? Oatmeal? Pop tarts? Cream cheese? Vodka? Yogurt? Body spray? Lotion? Hand soap? Air freshener? Yes, they sell it all.

Haunted Houses

People dress up as everything from scary monsters to creepy dolls just to give the customers a good scare. The best part? We love the thrill and actually pay them to hvae us scream in fear.

Halloween

It's my favorite holiday. Whether you're a kid going house to house collecting candy or you're the one handing children sweet treats, Halloween is the best holiday for everyone.

Football Season

There's nothing better than being able to watch your old high school's football team play on Friday night then wake up Saturday to watch your college team win and end your weekend cheering on your favorite NFL team with friends.

Cuddle Weather

*Now accepting applications for a cuddle buddy. Must be willing to play with my hair and rub my back while watching Law and Order on Netflix*

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

You can't just go to your room to take a nap in the middle of your classes.

Having to spend all your extra cash on gas for your car.

Speaking of money, you probably don't have a meal plan so you're forced to scrounge up some change or mooch off of your friends.

It can be harder to maintain the friendships you make with people from class.

Finding a parking spot.

It can be harder to be involved on campus because between your one, two, or three jobs and school you don't have much free time.

When you try to be super involved on campus, it can kill your sleep schedule.

It's impossible to do homework at home, but staying on campus isn't an option sometimes.

There are surveys and events that you can't participate in because you're a commuter.

Group projects are the bane of your existence.

Traffic.

Your backpack rivals that of a survivalist trekking in the woods.

Driving all the way to campus to find a note on the door of your classroom saying class was cancelled.

Because have you ever had to endure grilling your foot on a George Foreman?

1. When he just wanted bacon from his George Foreman grill

2. When he had money (and Jan) issues

3. When he got upstaged at Phyllis' wedding

4. When he unintentionally saved Meredith from rabies

5. When he wore a "bisexual" suit

6. When he had to apologize to Jesus

7. When his GPS drove him into a lake

8. When he had to deal with Ryan as his boss

9. When he couldn't fulfill his most generous empty promise

10. When this happened

11. When he struggled with a X-Mas break up

12. When he had to defend his generosity

13. When he threw a classy Christmas party for Holly but she had a boyfriend

14. When he had to stand up to peer pressure

15. When Toby was "Toby-ish"

5. I will meet new people.
