November Is NOT A Lame Month
AY Mag

With everyone still slightly hungover from Halloween, and highly anticipating the Christmas celebration to come, November tends to be overlooked and unappreciated. I must admit, sandwiched right in between Fall and Winter, the timing is slightly awkward. However, this next month is actually packed with a ton of fun things to look forward to, filling November with even more potential than ever before...

8. Election Day.

After months and months of endless political debate, scandal, and just general lunacy, it's finally time to see who will be officially heading into the Oval Office come January #SOS

7. Warm Drinks.

November means a full intro to all of this season's newest, comfiest latte flavors. The consistent cold weather also means you can finally commit to hot coffee again, abandoning iced until Spring.

6. Seasonal Foods.

November's produce simply can't be beat. Here's to an endless amount of perfect apples, brussel sprouts, potatoes, kale, pumpkins, and squash!! Cozy winter meals FTW.

5. Beards, Mustaches, Goatees, and Sideburns.

Both "No Shave November" and "Movember" mean this month signals a general increase in facial hair, everywhere you turn. Who doesn't appreciate some good scruff?

4.The Apparel.

As the temperature keeps dropping, the amount of available accessories actually continues to increase! There's nothing better than being able to complete an outfit with a trendy new scarf/hat/gloves.

3. Holiday Cheer.

When does Christmas season actually start? Who knows. Coming soon: toooons of festive lights, decorations, music, and holiday TV specials.

2. Endless Shopping.

If November means one thing, it's an infinite amount of excuses to shop. Black Friday, Cyber Monday--the sales this month are actually unreal.

1. Stuffing.

Clearly this post wouldn't be complete without mentioning Thanksgiving!!! For us college students, this means finally heading home for some much-needed family time, a good night's sleep, and so. much. fooooood.

No matter what people may say, November can't be beat. Bye, Haters.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
