10 activites you can do this fall even if you're single

Everywhere you look there is someone bragging about all the fall-themed things they're going to do or have already done with their significant other. If you're like me, you don't have a bae to go to pumpkin patches or haunted houses with. You also probably don't care because being single is way more fun. (Yep, I said it Becca. You go have fun with Chad, though.) I'm going to give all you single ladies (and guys, and they's) some fun ideas for this "lonely" fall.

Go to a Pumpkin Patch!

Giphy

If you go to a pumpkin patch with a significant other, you won't be able to hold the biggest pumpkin you can find, because you'll be too busy holding hands. No thanks.

Scary movies but ALONE!

Giphy

Yeah, you could argue that there's no one there "to protect you", but it's a movie. Nothings going to get you-AND you can eat all the Halloween themed candy and cookies you want, judgement free. Sure, I'll be sleeping alone tonight, but I'll have all the candy wrappers to keep me warm.

Visit a cemetery, to mourn the death of your love life.

Giphy

You're not alone, the ghosts of other lost love lives are there too!

Hit the books!

Giphy

There are enough things to fear this season, make sure checking your grades is not one of them.

Dabble in some witchcraft.

Giphy

Did the witches from Hocus Pocus have boyfriends? No. So why should you?

Carve a pumpkin.

Giphy

The perfect solo activity.

Bake something pumpkin flavored.

Giphy

I have a fantastic pumpkin pie recipe I can give you.

Also, you don't need a significant other for this. Fun fact, my ex and I used to bake together and we called it "baeking." We broke up. What does that tell you?

Go to Target.

Giphy

No one will fill the void like Target in October will.

Fuzzy Socks.

Giphy

Fuzzy socks can be an activity.

Hang out with your friends.

Giphy

But like, in a spooky way.

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.

Where do we begin when we start talking about our roommates? You practically spend every moment with them, they become your second family and they deal with you at your best and at your absolute worst. They are there to make you laugh just a little harder, cry a little less and make each day a little better. We often forget to thank them for the little things that they do to make college even a tiny bit easier and more fun. This list of 26 things are what you should thank your roommates for right this minute and every day that you live with them.
