Fall semester is all about making new friends, joining clubs, and making this year better than the last. So, let’s dive into why fall semester is the best:
1. Moving Back
Coming back to school and walking around campus again is the best feeling in the world. Use that sense of empowerment and feeling that “this could be my year” and take control, make it yours.
2. Decorating
From your dorm room to your new apartment, picking out all sorts of cute things can easily satisfy your shopping addiction and make you feel like an interior designer. For maximum cuteness, make sure to ask your roomie about their color scheme to have the cutest, most coordinated room on your floor.
3. Seeing Old Friends and Making New Ones
Seeing your high school friends is great and all, but seeing your college friends is completely different. You’ve been through everything with your college friends, and continuously making new friends is one of the greatest gifts campus can give.
4. Baking
Want to make something new for Thanksgiving or Christmas? Check Pinterest to find all your pumpkin and peppermint dreams.
5. Fall Fashion
Did someone say cozy sweaters? The balance in your bank account may slowly decline, but your closet will become full with sweaters, booties, and hoodies.
6. Bonfires
Having a fire is cool, but adding s’mores makes it even cooler.
7. Cuffing Season
It’s that time of year when everyone starts looking for their next boo. Cuffing season always starts in the fall, just in time for weather cold enough to cuddle in.
8. Coffee Shops
Find a nice, aesthetically pleasing local area that serves coffee to meet up with that new boo or your study group that’s getting tired of the library. Make sure to grab special holiday drinks while you’re at it, like a pumpkin spice latte or peppermint mocha.
9. New Exercise Plan
Every campus has their own recreational building. Join a new group fitness class, or download a fitness app to prevent the freshman 15.
10. HOLIDAYS
Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas all in one semester seems too good to be true.
11. Halloween
It deserves its own category considering how sacred it is to college students. Make sure to pick out a costume that represents you. If you want to be sexy, be a playboy bunny, if you want to be funny, get a group of friends to dress up as your favorite comedy TV show, and if you hate Halloween, wear a Christmas sweater and tell everyone you mixed up the holidays.
12. Joining New Clubs!
Join as many as you can! They are great ways to make new friends and enjoy something with others. Whether it be a sorority, a leadership club, or a club that likes Disney movies, there is a club for everyone!
13. Fall Sports
They almost define how awesome your school is and can give you bragging rights, so take pride in your university’s sports teams. Football, soccer, and even volleyball. Support your fellow students.
14. Instagram Pictures
Fall gives so many opportunities to get likes. Up your follower count by going outside and taking pictures in the leaves, at a game, or even take a picture of those gingerbread cookies you just baked!
15. Candles
Walking into a room that smells like Christmas is pure bliss. Make sure you stock up on candles for fall semester so that your room will always bring a smile to your face.
16. Makeup
Did anyone else see last year’s Too Faced holiday set? Too Die for, right? Fall semester is around the time of year that makeup companies usually drop new products. This fall, try the newest dropped line Fenty by Rihanna. You can thank me later.
