It's time to go get your fall on!

Who Doesn't Love Fall?
Kristen Haarstick

Everyone loves a good summer, but there comes a time when it must end. The temperature drops, the leaves fall, and the holiday festivities begin. Fall has to be one of my most favorite seasons of them all. What’s not to love about fall? Halloween, pumpkins, and my birthday happens to “fall” in fall too. (See what I did there). And so, because I love fall so much, I wanted to share some of my favorite things you must do this fall. First off, gather your friends, grab your camera and get your fall on.

1. Apple picking at a local orchard.


2. Carving a pumpkin.

Yeah, it will be messy but it’s all worth it in the end, especially if you roast the pumpkin seeds.

3. Take an artsy picture with the colorful leaves.

A picture of a leaf, a selfie in the leaves, or you can even take it to the next level and make a boomerang as you throw the leaves in the air.

4. Cozy up in your favorite blanket and watch a scary movie with your friends.

If you need any ideas, the second season of Scream Queens is coming out soon and I would definitely recommend it.

5. Go to a Halloween themed party.

It might not have been a “cool” thing to dress up in a costume in middle school or high school, but it will definitely be worth it. It's fun to go out but be safe too.


6. Go get your favorite fall boots and vest out.

7. Hayrides.

8. Go to a local fair.

The foods is always good at the fair.

9. Haunted houses.

This is one that you will want to bring your friends to. It's always fun to get a little scared.

10. Go to your school's football game.

Get your spirit on! It doesn’t have to just be football, but football tends to be a fun fall sport to attend. Get dressed up in your school colors and go support your fellow classmates.

11. Go on a hike in the crisp fall air.

Sometimes you need to put down the books and take a walk through the leaves. It's fun to hear them crunch, and its always a good thing to bring your dog too.


12. Build a Bonfire.

Smore’s. Smore’s. Smore’s. Who doesn’t love cozying up next to a warm fire on a cool fall night?

13. Watch your favorite Halloween movie.

"Casper", "Halloween Town", "Hocus Pocus"-- all a must for a movie night.

14. Apple Pie.

Home made or not, apple pie is a must. If that doesn’t work you can always go with pumpkin bread too.

15. Apple Cider.

Going off of the apple pie, apple cider is another great drink for the fall season.

16.


16. Decorate for the season.

Hang up some leaves, spider webs, or candles (fake ones give off the same effect if your in a dorm.) It gets you even more into the fall spirit and is fun to make too.

17. Jump into a pile of leaves.

Another great opportunity for an Instagram.


18. Thanksgiving Dinner.

One of the best meals of the year. Make sure you don’t miss it.

19. Go through a corn maze.

Don’t get lost though.

20. Hang out with your friends.

Fall is a great season, especially if you make it fun.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
