Fall. Officially, it is from September 22 to December 20. Less three full months have been dedicated to the most wonderful time of year. Fall is so beautiful and wonderful and everyone feels great. Here's my fifteen reasons why fall is the best season ever.

1. Football.

From high school to college to professional, you know it's fall when football comes on. and when football comes on, everybody's happy.

2. Cooler weather.

Self explanatory. Who honestly likes walking twenty steps and sweating off half their body weight? Not me.

3. Cuter clothes.

Fall means layers and layers mean always looking adorable even when you just threw something together. A sweater and scarf make any outfit look like you put forth effort. (It can also be lowkey expensive)

4. Pretty leaves.

The fall scencery is gorgeous and nobody can argue with me on that one because it is actual fact.

5. Hay rides

Also self explanatory. Hay rides are great for all ages, from 7 months to 70 years

6. Pumpkin patches

I don't know about you but there's nothing better than going to a pumpkin patch and picking your own pumpkin.

7. pumpkin spice anything

I love the way pumpkin spice tastes and smells. From pumpkin spice lattes to pumpkin spice lotion, pumpkin spice is my lifeeeeeeee.

8. pumpkin carving

There;s just something about carving a pumpkin with your best friends or your family or your significant other or all of the above that makes fall really feel like fall, no matter the weather.

8. warm apple cider

Literally my favorite fall beverage (alongside pumpkin spice latte.)

9. apple cider slushes from Isom's Orchard

seriously. just go to Isom's Orchard and get one. They're perfect.

10. Fall break

Everyone needs a break.

11. Halloween

This is my third favorite holiday.

12. Thanksgiving

This is my second favorite holiday.

13. Candy corn and candy pumpkins

mmmm. all i ever crave during fall.

`14. No bugs

As someone who constantly gets eaten up by mosquitoes, this is my favorite reason for fall.

15. The atmosphere

Everyone is generally happier during the fall. It's like proven.

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.

University of Vermont

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.
