Getting Ready for the Fall

The fall is a time of year that has always brought me so much happiness. School is starting to get back to full swing, the weather is cooling down, leaves are changing, among so many other things. This year especially as the days begin to blend I think the fall will be a great change bringing some new activities. Here are some reasons I can't wait for this season to be in full swing!

1) Pumpkin. Need I say more. Now that the cooler weather is upon us all my favorite coffee spots have put out new seasonal flavors and treats. I may have been the first one in line at Starbucks to get a pumpkin coffee, or at Dunkin' for apple cider donuts. If you are into coffee, definitely get out and try some new flavors. It is a great way to change up your routine and you may find your new favorite coffee order.

2) This year especially I can't wait to start wearing new fall fashion. This summer has been so hot it will be a dream when we can put on sweaters and boots. I am excited to see what new trends come out of this fall whether it be cute skirts, oversized cardigans, or something else. Fall outfits are always so cozy and cute it will be a nice change from the heat.

3) With the weather cooling down means it will also be time to hit the apple orchard soon! Nothing is better than going apple picking at the beginning of the fall. It always makes for a super fun day with plenty of photo-ops! On top of that the apples you get from an orchard always seem to taste better than the ones from the store.

4) The end of the year also means that the holidays are coming up. Especially now while our world faces crisis I am excited for the joy that this time of year can bring. Halloween is right around the corner and Thanksgiving and Christmas soon after. Decorating for these days is always so fun and can bring some cheer into a room that may have felt the same since March. All and all spending time with friends and family for the holidays will be a joyful change.

5) One last thing to look forward to this fall is the changing of the leaves. Though it is something so simple fall foliage makes the world look so much more beautiful. I always love looking out at all the colors in the trees and on the fallen leaves. It's another great opportunity for photos too!

The fall will be filled with cozy outfits, a new routine, and plenty of places to take great pictures! This list just grazes the surface of exciting things coming with the new season. Grab some starbucks and your favorite flannel and get excited!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
