My 15 Favorite Things About Fall

Fall is where the leaves change color and things go bump in the night. And truly those are some of my favorite things but here are just a few more.

1. Going to haunted houses. I honestly believe that everyone needs a good scare every once and a while.

2. Jumping in piles of leaves. I swear I am 19 with a kids heart.

3. Eating pumpkin pie. And by pumpkin pie I mean actually a slice with double the amount of whip cream on top.

4. Finding the perfect Halloween costume. I love Halloween with all of my heart so the perfect costume is a must. P.S. mine is a Disney Princess this year.

5. Breaking out all of my fall clothes. Bring on the flannels and sweaters.

6. Going to apple orchards. The smell and just everything about it is amazing.

7. Watching Halloween Town. More than once. Well actually watch every single Halloween Town movie.

8. Eating apple pie. Although I love pumpkin pie, apple is just too good not have.

9. Buying everything “Fall” scented at Bath and Body Works. There’s just something about those scents that make me want to buy the entire store.

10. Starting the countdown to Christmas. Is it ever too early?

11. Taking trips to pumpkin patches. I could spend hours at a pumpkin patch. (Also a great place for super cute pictures.)

12. Carving pumpkins. I’m not joking when I say that I love Halloween with all of my heart, so of course pumpkin carving is my actual favorite thing.

13. Football season. I’m not going to lie I don’t always understand what’s going on, but there’s something about the game and the players that makes me excited for fall.

14. Watching tons of scary movies. Scary movies are a rite of passage for fall.

15. The changing of the leaves. There’s really just something comforting about driving through hundreds of different shades of red, orange, and yellow.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.
