They transformed from summer's wild and crazy spirits, into students slaving over chemistry and calculus exams. But the bad points of fall didn't add up to diddley squat compared to the mountain of fun that fall brought to us. The season of trees ablaze with color, brought a new school year complete with new friends, old friends, and challanges to tackle.
