12 Reasons To Look Forward To Fall

In This Article:

.

1. Pumpkin Spice Latte Season!

The epitome of fall.

2. Apple Cider.... for those crazies who don't drink Pumpkin Spice.

Bonus points if you drink it in front of the next item on this list!

3. Bonfires galore!

Because nothing smells better than bonfire smoke, nor is there a better setting to tell scary stories and sing with a guitar on an autumn night.

4. College Football

Nothing says fall in the south quite like college football (LET'S GO BLUE!!!)

5. Haunted Houses

If you're lucky, you won't pee yourself. Speaking from experience here.... oops.

6. Carving Pumpkins (and eating pumpkin pie!)

Sometimes you make jack-o-lanterns. Sometimes you make pumpkin seeds. Sometimes you make homemade pumpkin pie. Sometimes you put babies in them for fall photo shoots. The possibilities are truly endless.

7. Halloween (the best holiday of the year)

The more, the merrier. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE loves Halloween. Shy but want to be seen? Dress up for Halloween. Secretly a nerd but don't want anyone know about your love for classic comic books? Dress up for Halloween. Super into special effects makeup? H A L L O W E E N.

8. No More 90 Degree Days (Hopefully)

Which also means that you get to wear cute clothing! Scarves and flannels and boots and hats and a coffee in hand= perfection.

9. Thanksgiving!

Family, football, turkey, yams, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, green bean casserole, cornbread, macaroni and cheese, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, fudge, beer, apple cider, ALL OF THE GOOD FOOD.

10. Black Friday (and the beginning of pre-Christmas jitters!)

When you leave the comfort of your home within hours of being thankful for what you have to go spend money and fight long lines for sales... to get the perfect gifts for the family you left at home.

11. The First Snow

The last breath of fall as winter takes over. A slightly sad moment for some, but the excitement of the winter holidays being RIGHT around the corner!

12. And Lastly....

PLEASE remember to vote in the midterm elections on November 6th! Your vote is valuable and your voice deserves to be heard!

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.
