15 Reasons October Is The Best
We Heart It

Well folks, it's that time of year again. Leaves are turning red, bugs are slowly disappearing back to the pit of doom from whence they came, and every single product on the market is being reconfigured to somehow include the distinct taste and scent of pumpkin spice. Being a self-diagnosed basic, October is without a doubt my favorite time of year, and, in my humble opinion, definitely one of the most exciting months. So, while you're waiting for ABC Family's 13 Nights of Halloween marathon, grab a pumpkin spiced latte and enjoy some of the finer things about fall.

1. The moment it turns 12:00 a.m. on Oct. 1:


2. Frolicking in all the new fallen leaves:


3. Being crazy pumped about football games in the Swamp every Saturday:


4. Trying to take cute fall pictures at the pumpkin patch like:


5. When all the coffee shops start selling pumpkin spice lattes:


6. When someone calls you basic for doing basic Fall things:


7. When some hater tells you its too early to start getting ready for Halloween:


8. When you realize you don't need to care about their opinion anyways because its Halloween:


9. Trying on all of your different options for Halloween costumes and showing them to your friends:


10. Eating every single "Pumpkin Spice" labeled food item in the nearby vicinity:


11. When you wake up and realize it's getting cold outside:


12. Waking up on Halloween day like:


13. Going to a bunch of different Halloween parties with your friends and looking cute:


14. Turning up all Halloween night long:


15. Waking up the next morning depressed that Halloween is over but super excited for Christmas:


Yes it's that amazing time of year again, and as you can see, I'm more than a little excited. It's time to break out the jack o'lanterns and enjoy the pumpkin spice everything. So everybody, go grab your flannels, put on those UGG boots (no matter how hard people judge), and head to your nearest pumpkin patch. October is here, and it's going to fly by! Let's make it last while we can.

*slam dunks a pumpkin* FALL IS LIFE

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.
