1. No more sweating from simply being in existence.

Giphy

I am tired of sweating buckets from just standing outside. I spent most of this summer working outside and even in the shade I was still sweating. Most of the days have felt so humid it was like walking into a bowl of soup. I can't wait to walk outside in my sweater coffee in hand and be comfortable.

2. Hot beverages

I love coffee and hot chocolate. In the summer I'm already hot so I can't enjoy the warming effects of these drinks. Once fall hits though its hot beverages all day every day to warm my soul.

3. School starts back up

Giphy

I enjoy school I like the structure and I enjoy what I'm learning. I am more than ready to be back working towards my degree. I'm also stoked to have my friends who only live in Saginaw during the school year back in town.

4. Halloween

Halloween is easily my favorite holiday. I go all out decorating my house and planning a party. I get dressed up and watch movies. Scary movies and Halloween movies are my absolute favorite. To say I am looking forward to Halloween is an understatement.

5. Sweater weather

Sweaters are the best clothing item to own. They're comfy, generally flattering and can be worn in a multitude of ways. Sweaters make up most of my shirts and I'm ready to wear them on the daily again.

6. Fall colors

Rich fall colors are so beautiful. The deep earthy tones are warm and inviting.

7. Apple Cider Donuts

Need I say more? Warmed up and paired with hot apple cider these are the perfect snack to cuddle up with and watch, of course, a Halloween movie.

8. A holiday dedicated to eating... I mean being thankful.

Giphy

Thanksgiving is a time to join with family and share what we are thankful for. Obviously, this holiday also includes a lot of tasty food that we are all very thankful for.

9. Fall scents

Fall scents like baked goods and cinnamon are warm and inviting. The weather is great to bake in too. I love to bake and enjoy the warm delicious smelling kitchen.

10. Leaves begin to change colors

When you look out the window you don't see a lively green background anymore. The trees are starting to fade to red, brown, yellow and orange. The fiery colors begin to fall and set the mood for relaxing cool nights.

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.
