Skip the haunted house, bake cookies instead.

Let's admit it: we're all completely basic and want to go on cute Fall dates with our bae. Between hayrides, college football games, carving pumpkins, we want it all. But as badly as I want to go through a super-overrated haunted house, as a college student, I don't necessarily have the time to wait in line for 2 hours just to spend 15 minutes in haunted house that wouldn't necessarily be scary without the over-use of strobe lights.

Just because college students don't have time for traditional fall dates doesn't mean that we should miss out completely. There are still so many cute and quick Fall dates that work perfectly with our crazy busy first semester schedule.

Here are 8 Fall dates that even the busiest college student can fit in:

1. Bake Pillsbury sugar cookies

These cuties take less than 15 minutes to make and taste like heaven. Cuddle up with your bae and a cup of hot apple cider and enjoy!

2. Watch college football together

While we may not be able to go to every single game, we'll definitely still be watching every game on TV. Why not turn it into a date? Blankets + popcorn and you're good.

3. Coffee shop study date

We're gonna have to get our studying in either way. Might as well do it with a cutie and Venti PSL and Chai Latte by our side.

4. Paint pumpkins

Traditional pumpkin carvings require far too much time (and energy for the clean up process). Save yourself the hassle and settle for some cute and creative painted pumpkins instead.

5. Go for a fall drive

No destination required as long as there's nothing but orange leaves on the trees.

6. Cider tasting

Have a DIY wine tasting night! Complete with all of your favorite ciders.

7. Have a picnic

Put on your cutest fall outfit, pack a picnic basket, and head out to enjoy the perfect, crisp fall air, a delicious meal, and some sweet company.

8. Visit the local farmers market

You'll need to get your veggies either way, might as well turn it into a date. I hear they sell flowers, too (wink, wink).

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.
