New York continues to be the city that never sleeps. No matter what season we’re in, there always seems to be something going on. Summer brought the heat and along with in many activities. There were movies in the park, restaurant week, and several beach events. You would think that because it’s officially Fall and the temperature has dropped, New Yorkers would want to stay indoors, but NO! Fall activities are officially in swing, so here’s my list of things to do during the fall season.

1. New York City Wine and Food Festival

NYC Wine and Food Festival is one of the best city food festivals around, with food packed parties throughout various locations in NYC. Festival begins October 13 to 16, 2016. http://nycwff.org/

2. Giant Pumpkin Weekend

This event is held at the New York Botanical Garden on October 22 and 23, 2016. Carve a pumpkin with friends while sipping on spiked apple cider! http://www.nybg.org/home/

3. The Rink at Rockefeller Center

The center is located Midtown West in Manhattan. Gather your family and friends and go skate at the city's most iconic rink. The rink opens in mid-October and will still opened till April 1, 2017. https://therinkatrockcenter.com/

4. NYC Marathon 2016

Five Boroughs, One City. This marathon travels across all five boroughs on Sunday November 6, 2016. Get involved and race for a good cause. http://www.tcsnycmarathon.org/

5. Comedy Festival

They say laughter is a good medicine, and with everything we have going on in our lives we definitely have to stop and laugh a little. This year's festival features comedians like Tracy Morgan, Bridget Everett, Trevor Noah and more. New York Comedy Festival kicks off November 1, 2016 through November 6, 2016. Festival will be held at various comedy clubs and venues in New York. http://nycomedyfestival.com/

6. 90th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade

The 90th Thanksgiving Parade kicks off in just 46 days. Thanksgiving Day is Thursday November 24, 2016 and this annual parade is always a favorite to watch on that day. The annual pageant host giant balloons, live performances and many of our favorite and children's favorite all in one spot. http://social.macys.com/parade/

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

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!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

5. After the pep talk, you feel determined to get everything done.

6. But, now you're tired.

7. And really hungry.

8. Suddenly, it's 2 a.m. and you have only written three sentences and your paper is due in the morning.

9. You've made it to Friday... somehow.

10. Then Sunday hits and you find yourself back at the Lib.

11. So you cry some more.

12. But, you fight through the tears to get everything done because you're determined.

13. In the end, you feel on top of the world because you made it through the last week of class alive.

14. But, now it's finals week so good luck.
