10 Reasons Why Fall Is The Best Season

1. Fall fashion

It's time to pack up those shorts and tank tops, and I couldn't be more excited. I personally can't wait to live in oversized sweaters, cozy leggings and boots! It's all the comfort of pajamas, yet still so cute. Fall fashion is seriously the best!

2. Pumpkin flavored everything!!

Pumpkin pie, pumpkin spiced lattes, pumpkin bread and the list goes on! Fall is the season for everything pumpkin and I cannot wait. There's nothing quite like walking to class with a pumpkin latte in your hand as the leaves crunch under your feet.

3.The changing leaves

Speaking of leaves crunching under your feet, the changing of the leaves in Autumn is seriously beautiful. Orange, red and chestnut brown everywhere you look; there are few things as magical as that.

4. Halloween

Haunted houses, Jack O' lanterns, trick or treating, costumes! There are so many fun things to do surrounding this freaky fun holiday! Side note: candy goes on sale after Halloween. Seriously what isn't to love about Halloween?

5. Thanksgiving

Halloween isn't the only festive holiday in fall. Fall means thanksgiving, and thanksgiving means food, family and fun. What else could you ask for? I guess pumpkin pie..but we already covered that!

6. Football games

Now I'm personally not much of a football fan, but there's something about cuddling under a blanket with friends while cheering on your home team. It gives you an excuse to break out your sweatshirt displaying your university and show a little school spirit while sipping a good cup of apple cider!

7. Caramel Apples

Sure, you could technically eat caramel apples any time of the year, but it just doesn't seem right munching on this sweet treat in any other season.

8. Pumpkin Patches

How fun are pumpkin patches? So fun! There's just something about picking out a pumpkin to carve with some friends on a fall day. Plus, if you're lucky, you might be able to take a hay ride!

9. The weather

It's cold enough to dress in layers, but not so cold that you don't want to spend time outdoors. It is literally perfect!

10. It's NOT winter!

Enough said.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
