Fall is creeping upon us, ghouls and gals! You know what that means, right? Candy corn, pumpkin carving, pumpkin spice lattes. I don't know about you, but I love fall. It's probably my favorite season. It gives me the perfect excuse to layer up and digest pumpkin flavored things.

But enough about my love for fall and more about what you and your spooky boo can do to stay warm while saving money! You don't need to spend a fortune to have fun.

1. Go to a pumpkin patch.

The more obvious date: go to a pumpkin patch! It's free unless you buy a pumpkin, and even then it shouldn't be that expensive.

2. Carve pumpkins.

Once you've picked out your desired pumpkins, carve them out together! Turn it into a contest if you'd like. Best pumpkin gets a kiss!

3. Go to haunted houses or corn mazes.

These also shouldn't be too expensive. The corn mazes I went to back in high school offered a student discount for all three mazes. Check out your local Halloween themed attractions to see what they offer!

4. Explore something abandoned.

Going along with the scary theme of things, go explore something abandoned. Do it legally of course (if that's possible).

5. Go on a hike.

Depending on where you live, it's never a bad time to go on a hike. It's free and you really get to see fall in all its glory!

6. Have a picnic.

Have a fall themed picnic! Prepare yourself a cute little meal, set up a blanket on a pile of leaves (or grass), and enjoy each other's companies!

7. Bake Halloween cookies.

If you and your ghoulfriend like baking, bake Halloween themed cookies together! Unlike the pumpkin carving contest, the both of you win in the end.

8. Watch scary movies.

I love scary movies all year round, but October is the time I can really go all out! And it's socially acceptable to do so, too. So, take advantage of this. Snuggle up on the couch, get your fireplace going, and have a scary movie marathon!

9. Nap together.

And now for my personal favorite. I mean, sleeping is free, right? It's never not a good time to have a nap date!

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.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
