15 Reasons Why Fall Should Be Celebrated

The air gets cooler, the sun sets sooner, and leaves are changing colors. Fall is here everyone, and it is an exciting time of the year. Friendships at this point have become solidified, and people become closer as they bond over their love of what fall has to offer.

What exactly am I talking about? Here are some reasons you should love fall, if you don't already.

1. The most appreciated coffee, the Pumpkin Spice Latte.

It's back everyone, the Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks is here. The warm drink with traditional, sweet fall spice flavors is sure to pick you up in the afternoons for work, studying, or even a walk with your friends!

2. Changing colors on the leaves.

Fall brings the beauty of nature back every year with the leaves changing color. This makes for great pictures and a comfortable setting.

3. Picking apples at a local orchard.

You're never bored this season with apple orchards around! Grab some friends or a date, and take them to go apple picking!

4. Sweater weather!

It's time for sweaters, boots, scarfs, and leggings! It's a girls dream come true. Being comfortable and cute is the way to go in the fall!

5. Pumpkin patch visits.

Fall equals Halloween. Halloween means you get to go to pumpkin patches! Big or small, it's always fun to pick out your favorite pumpkin that will later serve as a centerpiece in your home.

6. The smell of the autumn air.

There is nothing better than walking outside and smelling the crisp air of autumn.

7. Listening to the sound of the leaves crunch.

Taking walks in the fall is more relaxing than a walk in any other season. As you walk slowly over a leaf, it crunches and crinkles along the cement, and for some reason this is one of the best sounds of fall.

8. Carving pumpkins.

Here comes the fun part to those pumpkins you went picking for. Pumpkin carving is a fun and messy project for any group of friends preparing for the Halloween season!

9. Watching 13 Nights of Halloween on TV.

Ever want to feel like a kid again? 13 Nights of Halloween by ABC family has the best Halloween movies that bring us back to our childhood.

10. Going on hayrides.

The most acceptable time of the year to sit on a pile of hay is constituted by hayrides. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenery.

11. Warm, night time fires.

Grab some hot apple cider or hot chocolate and cuddle up next to a warm fire on a beautiful autumn night.

12. Halloween!

Whether you're a young kid or an adult, this holiday is appreciated by all ages.

13. Thanksgiving

Also another appreciated holiday, Thanksgiving brings the family together and for once it is socially acceptable to eat as much as you want and can. Let's also take a moment to appreciate one word: leftovers.

14. Cuddle weather

Netflix and chill takes a whole new meaning in fall. It includes baked goods, hot chocolate, and can be enjoyed with anyone. Cuddle up with your boyfriend or girlfriend, or just grab a bunch of friends for a movie night!

15. No matter where you live, fall always makes you feel at home.

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.
