14 Things To Put On Your Fall Bucket List

I couldn't help but feel a little sad this week as I put away the last of my summer clothes, and reminisced on all of the memories I made this past warm, sunny summer. Every summer I make a bucket list of all of the exciting things I want to do while school is out of session. This led me to thinking, why don't we make bucket lists for the fall as well? Although we spend a lot of our time in class, there are still so many opportunities to take advantage of the beautiful season. So, here are the top things you should make sure to do this Fall.

1. Run a 5K

There are so many great organizations that sponsor 5Ks, and there are so many opportunities in the fall to sign up for one.

2. Spend a Sunday afternoon watching NFL football

This is one of my favorite things about fall. There is always a game to watch on Sundays!

3. Tailgate

Get your friends together and go to a game!

4. Buy a pumpkin spice latte

We wait all year for the return of this latte. Make sure to get a few before we have to say goodbye to them for another year.

5. Go on a hike

Fall, in my opinion, is the most beautiful season. We wait all year for this beautiful season to arrive, so enjoy it while it lasts!

6. Go to a petting zoo

One of my girlfriends just did this with her boyfriend, and said that it was the best date of her life.

7. Watch scary movies and make apple cider

Nothing is better that cuddling on a chilly autumn day with a hot cup of apple cider and a scary movie to get you in the mood for Halloween.

8. Bake

There are so many great fall recipes. Make pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, or pumpkin anything.

9. Carve a jack-o-lantern

Bring back childhood memories and spend an evening carving pumpkins.

10. Go fall clothes shopping

Fall provides you with an excuse to take a trip to the mall to buy an oversized sweater, fall boots, or scarf.

11. Donate to charity

The fall and winter months are miserable for people who don't have warm clothes. Find a charity and donate to those in need.

12. Have a campfire

Grab your blankets, s'mores and friends and cuddle around the fire. This is a great way to make memories this fall season.

13. Make your own Halloween costume

You can be as creative or simple as you want to be! You'll have a blast putting together your costume.

14. Go to a country concert

Wear your flannel and enjoy a great concert.

Happy fall everybody!

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

750

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
