Falling For Fall
Jamie Cahoon

I don't know about you but Autumn is my favorite season of the year. The leaves are falling, the air is crisp and tops of the mountains begin to be sprinkled with snow. Being as I'm not Haloween's biggest fan, I love to decorate my home with super cute fall decorations. I have found 11 of the cutest DIY decor items that are both inexpensive and adorable. Ballin' on a college kids budget makes for fun craft nights instead of buying the items at a ridiculous mass produced price.

1. FALL Mason Jars

Go to a thrift or dollar store a buy glass jars and fake flowers and leaves. You can find the paint and string at Walmart for a couple bucks. Either paint the letters on the jars, or spend a little extra money on the burlap material. There ya go! Super simple and very festive.

2. Jar of Pumpkins

The easiest of all. Again, these glass jars can be found at a dollar store. There are mini pumpkins all over the place this time of year!

3. Leaf Garland

Buy a bundle of fake leaves, glitter spray paint, ribbon, and a hole punch. This would be super cute above a fireplace or window frame!

4. Leaf Candle Holder

Simple and straight to the point, these would be super cute as a centerpiece of dinner parties or Thanksgiving!

5. Glitter Pumpkins

Grab some pumpkins, paint, glitter, and glue; you'll have a splash of sparkle to spice up your home in no time.

6. Chocolate Pumpkin Bread

I can't wait to try this out! Click the picture to be taken to the recipe.

7. Apples

With some apple cider around a campfire, these would be a great snack.

8. Apple Cider Cocktail

Speaking of apples... this sounds phenomenal.

9. Scarves

Wearing a scarf is my favorite way to stay cozy this season.

10. Beanies

And beanies are the best way to keep your brain warmed up for all those midterms this time in the semester. Beanies also come in handy for second-day hair or if you're in between washes!

11. Boots!

My favorite part of fall attire is getting to wear warm boots! There are many different brands and prices for this particular style. But if they aren't your those boot socks are super cute also!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
