Fall is the transition from summer to winter; the in-between of two wonderful seasons. Fall is the best season, in my opinion. The humidity and heat start to go away, and we welcome the chilly and crisp weather. So, why not post about all the fun Fall things you did this season? I mean, of course, it's the same apple orchard, same pumpkin patch, same spooky movies, but it's different memories each time. Those moments deserve to be posted about; they deserve to be shared.

Here are 10 Fall things that you are likely to Instagram this fall:

1. Apple picking

I absolutely love going to apple orchards. Doing this allows you to be outside all day, enjoying the beautiful fall weather. It is at apple orchards that you find the best apple cider and the best in-season apples. Also, don't forget the homemade caramel for those apples.

2. Going to the pumpkin patch

Another one of my favorite things to do in the Fall: pumpkin patches. From hayrack rides to pumpkin picking, to pig races, to corn mazes, and on and on and on... pumpkin patches are just so fun. I love getting to dress all warm and spend the day doing Fall things. (I also love dragging my boyfriend with me because he always gets the biggest pumpkin, and that makes for a great Instagram post.)

3. Watching spooky movies

Who doesn't love a little scare? There is a little drive-in movie theater that my boyfriend and I went to last year, and we got to park his truck and watch a spooky movie on a big screen from the bed of his truck. It was so fun to be outside in the forest watching a scary movie. Tis the season for getting spooked.

4. Bonfires

Bonfires with friends is a must. If you're anything like my friends, you like to see how big you can get the fire to be. After the fire settles down, you can talk, eat smores, and (if you're of age) drink a little. Bonfires give you time to sit back, get cozy, and enjoy the company of your friends.

5. Drinking and eating Fall foods

The amount of apple cider I drink during the Fall is unreal. It's just so tasty. Everything is now pumpkin spice flavor, which is actually super annoying, but beyond that, there are tons of Fall foods to enjoy. Thanksgiving is also during the Fall, and that holiday has some of the best food all year. Along with that, there are so many Fall recipes for pies, cookies, and so much more. Enjoy it while it's here.

6. Pumpkin carving

Who doesn't love making jack-o-lanterns? After you pick the perfect pumpkin and enjoy it for a while, it's finally time to get dirty, take out the guts, and carve something amazing... or just a face because that's all the artistic ability you have... *cough* *cough* ...me.

7. Wearing cozy sweaters, sweatshirts, and hoodies

Fall is a great excuse to buy more sweaters and cozy clothes. I think I've lost count of all my sweaters, sweatshirts, and hoodies. I just love getting to be warm and comfortable and cute all at the same time. So, take another sweater selfie while you're at it, right?

8. Snuggling under blankets

Usually, I want to be outside during the Fall. I like all the Fall activities that go on outside. However, when it's chillier, it's nice to cuddle up under some blankets and binge watch Netflix. Being inside and looking out the window at all of the changing colors on the leaves of the trees is so calming and pure. It's even better when you have a significant other to cuddle up with, and then you can binge watch movies.

9. Visiting haunted houses

Along with spooky movies, it's fun to get scared in real life. I actually like the adrenaline rush you get inside of a haunted house, and the freeing feeling you get once you're out. Some people hate them... I anticipate them.

10. Halloween

One of the more fun holidays out there. You have an excuse to dress crazy or to dress up as the person you have always wanted to be. For me, that's Bubbles the Power Puff Girl. Finding and creating your perfect costume pays off when everyone gets to see it at the next best Halloween party.


I don't think I could write an article like this about any other season. That just goes to show how much I love fall. It's my birthday, it's Thanksgiving, it's Halloween... it's everything wonderful, really. So enjoy fall while it is here. Take all the pictures you can, Instagram all the pictures you want, and most importantly make the best memories to last you until next fall.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
