Your Guide To The Most UVA Fall Day

UVA may be at its most beautiful during fall. Students often express their love for autumn in Charlottesville, but I’ve found the experiences students enjoy lack variety. By that I mean everyone goes on basically the same five or so outings to get in the fall spirit. Since I’m admittedly guilty of all at least half of these pastimes, here’s my guide for how to live the most UVA fall day.

1. 6:00a.m. Be a pretty person running

2. 10:00a.m. Brunch so hard

Extra points if you wait an hour plus outside Bluegrass, order anything “bottomless” or reference The Breakfast Club or Breakfast at Tiffany's.

3. 12:00p.m. Hop over to the football game for the first quarter

Your dress needs enough orange to look festive, but not so much that you look like a traffic cone. You shouldn't know the name of the opposing team until they score.

4. 2:00p.m. Win or lose, leave to go pick apples by halftime

Once you arrive at Carter Mountain, be sure to only take pictures with apples and then buy donuts.

5. 4:00p.m. Stock up on an obnoxious amount of flannel

Make sure your flannel is sized to fit a Hemsworth brother instead of an average-sized college girl.

6. 6:30p.m. Make “fam” dinner with people who aren’t your actual family

You’ll probably cook pasta and catch it on fire. (I don’t know from experience or anything…).

7. 8:00p.m. Watch Nostalgic TV or Movies

Be sure to tell the people watching with you about how the song on the movie's soundtrack pulled you through seventh grade. Also, make a joke about the weird polo shirts.

8. 11:30p.m. Panic about schoolwork and don’t sleep until Thanksgiving

You shouldn’t even be reading this article. Stop procrastinating and study yourself into a coma.

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.
