Nothing is better than pumpkin spice season.

If you're anything like me, you've been stocking up on bulky sweaters and fuzzy blankets since last fall. It doesn't matter if it's summer and 95 degrees: I'm the girl who's buying the big fuzzy sweater while shopping because I know that fall I just around the corner. Fall is a very special time, full of laughs and late nights in football stadiums, and it's my favorite season for the reasons listed below.

1. Pumpkin Spice EVERYTHING

Fall means one thing: no one will make fun of you for eating and buying everything and anything pumpkin. Pumpkin spice latte? Yes. Pumpkin spice candle? That too. Pumpkin pie? Always. Any other season and someone would laugh at these things, but during fall, your love for anything pumpkin spice can really shine.

2. Football games

Football is one of the defining features of fall, and the season is BACK. Get ready for awesome tailgates and another exciting season. Even if you don't love football, it's still exciting to go and watch the cheerleaders and band and see the energy in the crowd as your team scores a touchdown.

3. Fall Foliage

Fall also means that trees turn into breathtaking sites of orange, yellow, red, and green as you look up into the sky. Somehow, it's always picture perfect.

4. Comfy sweaters

I've been stocking up on fuzzy sweaters, socks and blankets since it was all released last fall, and now the weather is finally cold enough to wear them! Wrap up in that infinity scarf, the bulky sweater, and throw on those brown combat boots because it's fall y'all!

5. Halloween

It doesn't matter how old you are, halloween is always fun for any age. Whether you're a kid dressing up in a fun costume and going tricker treating or an adult passing out candy from your doorstep, it's a time for lots of laughs and fun pictures. Oh, and the insane amount of free candy is pretty great too.

6. Fuzzy blankets

Snuggling up with a glass of hot cocoa, smelling your pumpkin scented candle, and watching Netflix all while curled in your favorite fuzzy blanket is now acceptable, and it's what I'll be doing the majority of this fall for sure.

7. Pumpkin hunting

Hunting for the perfect pumpkin is never an easy task, but it's always a fun one. Whether you're going with family or friends, somehow it's always an adventure and a time to enjoy the fall beauty.

8. Apple picking

Apples are one of my favorite things, and since fall is their harvest season, it's a perfect activity. Plus, no one will know if you snack on one or two while picking.

9. Drinking apple cider

One of my favorite uses for apples is apple cider. It's sweet and you can drink it cold or warm and throw some cinnamon in it to make it extra flavorful.

10. Apple cider donuts

Last but not least, one of my favorite foods of all time: donuts. But in fall guess what? Apple cider donuts are back and better than ever. I usually find myself eating at least two.

There you have it- the ten reasons why fall is the best season. Time to curl up in that cozy blanket, eat an apple cider donut, , turn on Hocus Pocus, and sip on a Pumpkin Spice Latte.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
