Ladies and Gentlemen, cuffing season is upon us.

With this most wonderful time of the year approaching, it's brings with it a number of stereotypical yet equally drool-worthy and adorkable date ideas. Depending upon what type of fall date you have planned with your Boo Thang, here is what the 11 most common (aka basic AF) dates say about your relationship.

1. Corn Maze

You have great communication.

Because if you didn't then y'all would either never make it out or end up arguing about how you were right and you should've definitely turned left instead of right back there.

2. Pumpkin/Apple Picking

You're an Instagram couple.

Yeah sure, you probably want to talk and spend time bonding as a couple...BUT lets face it, you took the time to curl your hair and low-key made sure your blanket scarf coordinated with his flannel. You just keep doing you though, because if we knew our boyfriends wouldn't act like a spoiled 7-year-old every time we asked for a cute photo we would all be you.

Every girl: "Babe can we just take one picture please? But like, I need to be super lovey-dovey and act like you love me"

Every bf: "Ugh"..."Okay, fine. But we aren't taking a thousand of these this time!"...."Again? But you promise that was the last one"

3. Scary Movie Marathon

You like excitement.

Scary movie are perfect for giving you just the right amount of excitement between the dramatic music and all the monsters, ghosts, etc. jumping out at unexpected times. Scary movies are also the perfect excuse for plenty of cuddling and making sure Bae's hand never leaves yours.

4. Haunted House/Hayrides

You are adventurous.

It's not enough for y'all to watch the scenes, you want to be part of them. While movies are perfect for cuddling, you are the type of people would rather experience it first hand. Not only does a haunted house or haunted hayride provide the opportunity for the two of you to go outside of the safe bubble you've created for each other, it also gives you plenty of stories to tell your friends.

5. Picnic or a Walk in the Park

You're outdoorsy...and probably dog parents.

Who ever said Christmas was the "most wonderful time of the year" must have been in a coma for the duration of fall, because I dare you to find something more beautiful than nature at this time of year. Going on a picnic of a walk in the park with your significant other is the perfect date for a couple who wants to stop and appreciate the simplistic beauty of the great outdoors. While this is the perfect inexpensive yet adorably romantic date for any couple, two people who already enjoy nature will be able to appreciate even more.

6. Football Games

You're a social couple.

While you could just be there for the pre-game tailgating, you are probably the type of couple who loves spending time with other couples. Anytime there is any kind of sporting event, party, or get-together going on, it's pretty much a given that the two of you will at least make an appearance.

7. Bonfires, or Snuggling by the fireplace

You are low-key.

Snuggling by the fireplace with a good book or roasting marshmallows by the fire are y'all idea of perfection. The two of you have probably been together for a while and are comfortable enough around each other that you don't need some elaborate plans in order to enjoy each other's company. Plus, there's a reason so many love stories feature a scene around a fireplace...if you know what I'm saying.

8. Baking yummy fall desserts

You're meeting the family.

The couple that cooks together, stays together....and has to sit through an awkward dinner with their significant other's family trying to prove to their Mother that you really are a good catch. While baking can be an enjoyable activity to do together at any point in the relationship, if you are going to the trouble to try to make a pumpkin flavored anything then you are probably planning on taking that dessert to the family Thanksgiving dinner.

9. Couples Halloween costumes

Ladies, if you get your boyfriend to commit to a couples costume with a minimum amount of whining then it's safe to say he's not going anywhere anytime so. This man loves you so much he doesn't even care that his friends are going to make fun of him for the next year for the costume you are making him wear.

10. Pumpkin Spice Latte Date

Sorry, your literally just Basic with a capital "B," but there's nothing wrong with that. We're all a little basic whether we want to admit it or not. PSL are the most basic fall tradition of them all (along with Uggs, but that's beside the point) so if you have a Saturday coffee date at your local Starbucks you probably already know you're basic anyway. It's okay though, the two of you are still totally adorkable.

TBH though, we'd be lying if we said we weren't just a little jealous when we see yall cuddled up in the booth together.

11. Farmers Market

You're a couple that it on lock down.

You've been doing this for a while, and have gotten to the point that you know your significant other's likes and dislikes. Not only is your weekly trip to the farmers market ridiculous cute, you're sort of the couple we are all striving to be.

So, which one of these dates are you??

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
