October Bucket List

October 2, 2017 · In: Bucket Lists

October is here!! October is a notoriously busy and fun month. Between embracing the change of seasons, Homecoming and other events, and squeezing in all of the fall activities, there is hardly time to enjoy it all before the chill of winter arrives. I also view October as the unofficial kick off to the holiday season. After Halloween, there are so many holidays that are centered around enjoying time with your loved ones.

All that being said, here is what is on my bucket list for this month:

 

Apple Picking

How could someone who enjoys all the #basic fall things go this long without ever going apple picking?

Visit a Pumpkin Patch

Is it really October without pumpkins? Last year, I experimented with some pumpkin seed recipes and I hope to do so again this year!

Themed TV or Movie Marathon

Stranger Things!? Harry Potter!? Scary Movies!? The possibilities are endless.

Complete “Move” Activity Ring

Fitness goal of the month! I have an Apple watch that I wear every day. I love taking note and trying to complete the different activity goals daily…but sometimes it just doesn’t happen. I have never had a “perfect” month so I want to challenge myself to complete my move activity goal every day this month. 

Read One Book

Now that I am in grad school, I feel like I have less time (and desire tbh) to read for pleasure. I always feel guilty, like if I time to read, then I should be reading course material and not fun books. However, I’m hoping to squeeze at least one book in this month.

No Spend Weekend

This is hands down going to be the hardest goal on this list…we’ll see how this goes.

No Fast Food 

My fast food intake has been extremely high lately. I’m hoping to curb that craving by completing this challenge.

Try a Lentil Recipe

I’ve never had lentils before, but I have heard that they are a good source of protein and fiber. Decided to give them a try!

 

Take one of these challenges with me! I could definitely use someone to hold me accountable for completing the No Spend Weekend. If you have any ideas of activities that I can do to survive the weekend without shopping (my FAVORITE activity…next to eating) please comment below!

    Does no-spend weekend include Fri? Or just Sat/Sun? I will try it in solidarity! Love the idea! Fall hikes could take up my whole weekend 🙂

      Good question! I am thinking about starting when I get off of work on Friday and going through Sunday. A hike would be a great way to enjoy a no-spend weekend. I am also considering catching up on my reading and doing some tasks that I have been putting off haha.

Def plan to wear a couple of my seasonal faves, but I’m also looking forward to having more fun with my outfits this season! Would you be interested in seeing the looks I try along the way?

There were so many pressings to choose from and the addition of the bonus “mystery” song made the decision even harder. I didn’t actually research if this @urbanoutfitters exclusive pressing had “obsessed” so 🤞🏾

Trying the *NEW* Pumpkin Spice Frosty Cream Cold B Trying the *NEW* Pumpkin Spice Frosty Cream Cold Brew | Pumpkin Taste Test 2

After trying the pumpkin spice frosty from Wendy’s earlier this week, I was curious about how it would taste in their coffee drink! 

Have you tried them yet? 

Stay tuned for more pumpkin taste tests 🎃🤗

PUMPKIN SPICE FROSTY!?? Y’all know I had to jump on this—it was put on my calendar as soon as I saw the first press release 🤣😍😂. TDLR: looks like my “boo” book will be put to good use during this seasonal release. 

I never make it to Wendy’s in the morning but I heard that they have coffee options using this frosty and I’m curious to know how it would taste! Would you try the pumpkin spice frosty?
