It's almost fall (the best season by far, don't get me wrong) again and you know what that means: Pumpkin Spice Latte season. It's everywhere — in candles, loaves of bread, I even saw pumpkin spice Frosted Flakes the other day. But the most important PSL flavored thing around is the coffee (obviously.)

People go absolutely nuts when this Starbucks drink gets reintroduced every year. Starbucks even released it early this year so people were going even more nuts.

Honestly, I don't get the hype. I've tasted the latte and it's alright, but I've had better coffee. In my ~very~ unpopular opinion Pumpkin Spice Lattes aren't good and the world would continue to turn without them, but since they do exist, here are 25 things I'd rather do than drink one.

1. Give the class a fun fact about myself

2. Listen to Justin Beiber songs a continuous loop

Giphy

3. Have to survive the summer without air conditioning

Giphy

4. Only be able to watch daytime soap operas for TV for the rest of my life

Giphy

5. Listen to Christmas music all year round

Giphy

Yes, this is a bad thing

6. Run a marathon

Giphy

7. Clean my entire house with a toothbrush

Giphy

8. Use that same toothbrush to brush my teeth

Giphy

9. Laundry for my entire family

Giphy

10. Wash dishes with slimy, unknown food particles still stuck to them

Giphy

11. Shave my head

Giphy

12. Watch only Nicholas Cage movies for the rest of my life

Giphy

13. Walk barefoot through a fire ant bed

Giphy

14. Go Black Friday shopping

Giphy

This too is a bad thing...

15. Always be stuck behind someone driving five miles an hour below the speed limit

16. Have a pop quiz every time I go to class

17. Have lemon juice poured into my eyes

18. Always feel a popcorn kernel stuck between my teeth

19. Only be able to wear soaking wet socks

20. Have my teeth pulled with no anesthetic

21. Get braces again

Giphy

22. Always feel like I have to sneeze

23. Always have a rock stuck in my shoe

24. Relive middle school

Giphy

25. Count blades of grass

Enjoy your Pumpkin Spice everything!

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

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.
