I don't know where time went, but we suddenly only have 2 months left of the year. As the end of the year approaches, I'm never quite sure how to feel. To help explain what I mean, here are some tv characters.
1. Halloween!
As September draws to a close, everyone starts getting excited for Halloween! October means a whole month of pumpkins, haunted houses, fun costumes and so much more!
2. The first chill to the bone
As much as I love fall for its perfect weather, it seems as though it's a little too short. One day it's nice outside, but the next you feel it; the first drop of temperature that's too cold. The worst part? You know it's only going to go downhill from here, better break out your scarves and boots!
3. When it gets dark early
I don't know about you, but nothing makes me more unmotivated than walking out of class and it being dark. I feel like the whole rest of the day is gone. All I want to do is curl up under a blanket and go to sleep, but it's only 5 p.m.! What gives?
4. THANKSGIVING!
I know that a lot of people get excited for Christmas and tend to skip over it, but Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I just have lots of great family memories of Thanksgiving that I'll never forget. And besides, it gives you a reason to eat double your weight in delicious food without judgment, can't beat that!
5. Snow
When I was younger, I loved snow. It was pretty and fun to play in. Then I got to college and I had to walk to class in it. And by walk to class I mean slip and slide to class.
6. Christmas!
Christmas is one of my favorite times of year. I love making people happy and surprising them with gifts, and Christmas gives me the perfect excuse! It's always great to see the way people's faces light up when you got the perfect thing.
7. Finals.
However, standing between you and all of that holiday cheer are finals. Sleepless nights, stressful days and lots of caffeine. You just have to push through and remind yourself that it'll all be worth it and you'll get a break as soon as it's all over.
