10 Reasons Why Football Season Is The Best Season

We all have those months of the years that are our favorite. A lot of people like fall for the coffee, pumpkins, fall weather, and more layers. However, a vast majority of people like fall because it means one thing: Football Season. There are many great things about football season, but here are the top 10 I could think of:

1. Football season means football players.

Let's be real ladies; you may love the sport with your whole heart, but some of those boys out there look mighty fine in some shoulder pads and football pants, am I right or am I right?

2. There is always something to watch on tv.

You watch your favorite team, then you watch your rival, then you watch the other schools. Then on Monday when you are trying to do your homework you may turn on the tv and watch 5 games all day long.. but it is football season so no one can judge you!!

3. Tailgates are always so much fun

Tailgates are a time to come together and celebrate the victory you are about to have with all your friends. If you love tailgating just know it starts when the sun comes up and stops when the sun goes down. It is basically like a party every weekend, what could be better?

4. Tailgates mean tailgate food

So let's make sure everyone understands, you get to party all day with your friends, watch a sport that most all Americans love, and eat lots and lots of good food. Yes, I said it, food. From chips and dip to hot dogs and hamburgers there is always so much food to go around. So make sure you wear something that will hide your food baby and eat all the food you want cause its gameday.

5. You get to lose your voice every Saturday because of screaming at the tv.

Your neighbors may think you are crazy, but when it comes down to the 4th quarter with 2 minutes left in the game and your team is down by 7, you start screaming at them as if you know what they should be doing. Then on Monday when you go to class and your throat is a little scratchy and people ask you why just tell them this: "I was a football coach over the weekend."

6) There are not many things prettier than a football Stadium (let alone Sanford Stadium)

There a lot of beautiful things in this world, some are small some are large; however, come the fall very few things are prettier than a football stadium filled with thousands and thousands of fans cheering on their teams.

7. You can go above and beyond in your wardrobe to support your team.

See that obnoxious red pants or striped shirt? Well wear it, nothing screams more pride than wearing as much school colors for your team on game day. Wanna wear face paint? Wear it. Wanna wear shoulder pads? Wear them. Have fun with it!

8. You act like you are best friends with the players, even though you probably don't know their first name

You talk to your friends at home about the pros and cons of each player and they probably think you are best friends with them, but in all honesty, you probably do not even know their first name or where they are from, all you know is how they perform on the field.

9. You can talk about college football with pretty much every person.

You will never have an awkward silent bus ride with someone during the fall because there will always be something to talk about. Whether it be about the underdog team that came back and kicked butt, or the complete wipeout of another team, everyone knows what happened the week before in football so you will be able to talk about it.

10. It only comes around once a year for about 3 months, so it is a very special time.

Three Months. Approximately 90 days. 16 weeks. That's all we have of this great sport. So when it does come around, make sure to be ready and to have fun because there is so much that goes into football season.

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.

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.

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.
