New Englander's Top 10 Favorite Fall Things`
Ariel Dumont

Living in Massachusetts for 18 years of my life and now residing in New Hampshire, I have learned a few things about New England. More importantly, I have learned that New Englander's love the fall season including myself. Filled with falling leaves, cool October nights and two holidays, I mean why would it not be our favorite time of year. So here we go, why us New Englander's love fall!

1. Apple picking at the local apple orchard

Every families favorite fall day when they get packed into a car and drive to the orchard. Go for a hay ride to the orchard and pick the best apples you see. Eat about 6 when you are there even if you are not hungry because it is all about the experience.

2. Dunkin Donuts Iced Coffee, even on the coldest days

It does not matter if it is below zero temperatures out, we ALWAYS get a iced coffee from Dunks. We do not go to work or school without it. Coffee is what gets most of us through the day. Anyone who likes Starbucks, reconsider.

3. Foliage

It is always fun driving down those New Hampshire roads and seeing the changing leaves falling from the trees. This is where the best foliage pictures are taken, everyone knows that.

4. Football Season

Brady in this gif is how everyone feels come football season. Sunday's become less dreadful and the snacks are incredile. Football is a way of life up in the northeast. Go Pats! (Brady's coming back, sorry Goodell.)

5. Apple Cider Donuts

Another important thing to get when at the orchard is those warm apple cider donuts and a nice tall glass of apple cider. It tastes good all year round but during fall, it is even better.

6. Carving Pumpkins

Pumpkins never come out the way you wanted them to but hey, you tried right! It's simple fun to just crave some pumpkins and throw seeds at your family in October.

7. Hockey Season

Finally, it is here. The first games of hockey season are happenng and it is finally starting to feel like fall to those hardcore hockey fans.

8. Halloween

Fun as an adult and child. Dressing up as whatever you want for a night without getting judged? Yes please!

9. Thankgiving

We wait all year to sit down around a table of turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatos and family. You feel like you have a food baby for the next 72 hours but it is all worth it because your twelfth serving tasted good.

10. Family Parties

It is the biggest season for family with 2 holidays and thanksgiving being the big family holiday. It is your first break off from school and work and you finally get to see family from far away, what's not to love about fall!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
