13 Reasons We Love Fall

Your favorite season may be summer or spring or even winter but we all have a special place in our heart for the fall. Each year we see it come and each year we see it go. Why is it that we love fall so much though?

1. The leaves being to fall.

As much as we hate it because it means cold is approaching we cant help but adore its beauty.

2. The heat says bye-bye.

We all love summer but the heat, especially in Indiana, can get pretty unruly. Leaving heat means that we can go back to doing our hair and having it stay all day without looking like a cheerleaders pom pom.

3. Bonfires.

One word: S'MORES!

4. Scarves, boots, sweaters, messy buns.

Come on ladies we all know that we wish we could wear that combination all year round. It's comfortable and classic. Not to mention warm and easy.

5. Pumpkin...

PIE! You thought I was going to say Pumpkin Spice Latte didn't you? Everyone loves pie and fall is the best time to eat it!

6. Apple orchards and pumpkin patches.

Everyone carves pumpkins and it just is not fall if you don't eat an apple fresh off the tree at least once.

7. Halloween.

It is my favorite holiday. I love to see all of my little cousins having fun trick or treating and I love to dress up. You're never to old for a great costume..or a good halloween party!

8. Scary movies.

Mine are easily the Saw movies which some would say are not scary and are just plain gory but isn't that scary in its own right? There is nothing better on a fall night than to cuddle up next to your special someone, your best friends, or your cat and watch a good scary movie with hot apple cider.


9. "Hocus Pocus" and "Halloweentown"

Some will say one is better than the other but the truth is that each one of these Disney movies hold a special place in our hearts. No matter how old we get when Disney's Halloween movie marathons are on we will be perched on our couch till the very end.

10. Mustard Yellow, army green, maroon, and burgundy.

Im slightly more biases than most because these are my favorite colors but they compliment everyones skin tone and they are beautiful. Perfect for the fall and lets be honest here we all love them even if we won't adit it to our friends.

11. The smell of fresh air.

Most of us live in a city or in a suburb and are used to smelling car fumes, factory fumes, fast food buildings or trash something changes in the fall though. Even in somewhere as industrialized as New York City the fall season brings in fresh air that you just can not get in any other season. Maybe it is the crispness, maybe it is just in our head. All I know is I absolutely love it.

12. Football season.

Maybe we are not all super big sports fans or super big football fans but for me football is a huge part of my fall. It means fantasy football, loud Sundays, lots of friends and family, and of course...food. My dad has done fantasy football for as long as I can remember so football has always been apart of my life. It brings people together even if you are rooting for opposite teams.

13. Hot tea and a good book.

To my book lovers out there we know fall is the perfect time to find a nice window seat, grab some tea, and dive into another world.

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.
