Every Fall I make some grand and glorious plan to make sure I allow myself some grand and wonderful adventure along some adorable beach path while watching the leaves change, or maybe go on some beautiful car ride to the seacoast and take adorable pictures. However, I can honestly tell you that I spend just about every fall comfortable at home, in a onesie, watching Netflix & eating candy corn. Real OG shit right there.
But this year, I've made an honest attempt to forgo that awful rut in which I always seem to get into during this utterly magical season of fall. What I should explain now for those of you who DON'T know, I live in New Hampshire which means that fall doesn't just mean all the leaves just fall off the tree & then BAM it's cold. It means that you can't drive five feet without finding an apple orchard or pumpkin patch. Every one is selling hot apple cider, candy apples are in every shop window, basically everything smells like pumpkin pie. And the trees, everyone is blowing up about the trees because the leaves are normally a mundane, average green, but once the end of September, and beginning of October come around, they turn all shades of red, purple, orange, and yellow.
SO. In order to avoid the issue of not accomplishing anything, yet again, I've come up with a plan.
Step One: Assemble a group of people who you are 100% confident that you can have fun and be yourself with.
Step Two: Buy one of those super cute but incredibly expensive Polaroid cameras, and while you're at it, buy unnecessarily obscene amounts of film, because lets face it, it's better to have it and not use it than to need it and not have it.
Step 3: Read a newspaper, go online; pick 5-10 things that look really interesting, that don' t cost too much, and go and do them!
Step 4: Go to the dollar store, or Michael's & buy a journal. Go on Pinterest and look up bullet journals, and start one!! Starting one in the fall could be so beautiful.
Step 5: Go on an absolutely epic adventure, and by adventure I mean go on tons.
Step 6: Have the most perfect playlist. it really is a must. I could even be so courteous as to give you one.
Step 7: Take tons and tons of unnecessary photos, and once that is done, make an album or collage.
Step 8: Watch all the necessary movies for fall which include but aren't limited to
-Hocus Pocus
-National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
-Breakfast at Tiffany's
-Cruel Intentions
-Stardust
-Forrest Gump
Step 9: Get a onesie, because lets face it if you're going to spend a chilly fall night watching movies you might as well do it in a onesie.
So lets see how it goes!
