Why Fall Isn't My Favorite

Goodbye summer hello winter

It's that time of year again, pumpkin spice lattes, cuddling, sweatshirts and sweaters, boots, jeans, cute hats and nice weather! I just can't help to say that these things aren't for me. I swear just a second ago I was laying on the warm sand at the beach with my sister. To me, fall is the year's Sunday and Winter is one long Monday, and I hate Mondays. Besides fall being the dreadful Sunday where I anticipate a terrible Monday, here is exactly why I do not like the fall:

1. I enjoy the summer too much

Any signs of the cold just upsets me. Leaves changing color is pretty, but only for the two weeks that it happens and then the trees are bare, and then all of a sudden, it's winter. I like being warm, I like being at the beach and I like being outside.

2. I like being tan

To be honest, everyone probably looks better tan. And it's also better for my acne.

3. It gets dark out so early

Sun come back, I like you.

4. Everything is dying!!

5. Weather is so unpredictable

Rain, cold, heat, wind... choose one

6. Sickness

Cold, flu, coughing, sneezing, not my style

7. Halloween outfits

Can't wear anything revealing because you'll probably freeze to death

8. The effort of putting together outfits because to changing weather

In the summer, I can just throw on a pair of shorts, random shirt, and flip flops. Whereas in the fall I have to check the weather, pick a pair of jeans, a shirt, and shoes to match the rest of my outfit...so annoying

9. Yard work

Not that I do it, but I know a lot of people that rake day in and day out, and it looks annoying

10. Winter lasts 6 months

Why doesn't summer?

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

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

1003

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.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

Washington College

CSU

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.

Because you need it in your life.
