5 Reasons to Get Excited for Fall

One of the best seasons of the year is just around the corner: Fall! There is something about this season that makes me so happy from the perfect weather, the leaves on the trees turning different colors, and the holidays that come with it. I am definitely obsessed with this season, and I know a lot of others are too. That being said, here are some reasons to remind you all why you need to get excited for Fall.

1. The Weather

I don't think any wather throughout the year is as perfect as Fall weather. It's such a happy medium of warm and cool that is never too overbearing. I love how in the morning you can wear comfy sweats or a flannel for class, but then when it warms up in the afternoon you can change into shorts and a tee. There's nothing like walking outside on a nice, Fall morning for the first time and breathing in that fresh air. It's the last taste of warmth until Winter comes and ruins everything, so soak it all in.

2. LEAVES

Nothing says Fall like watching the leaves turn gorgeous shades of red, orange, and yellow. Especially in Johnstown on the UPJ campus, the trees make everything so much more scenic. Before coming here, I had never seen such a huge amount of trees with turning leaves in one area. Once Fall rolls around, you will probably see me taking a picture of the trees almost every day just because I'm so obsessed. It makes me happier on my way to class and shows that one of my favorite seasons is here.

3. Fall Scents

I think one of my all time favorite thing about Fall are all the different smells associated with it. Whether it's pumpkin, apple, or spices, places like Yankee Candle and Bath & Body Works always got my back. I get so excited when they release new (and previously existing) scents for the season, and it's dangerous for me to go in these stores because I'll just want everything. The candles are my personal favorite because I love when the smell fills up the whole room, and it instantly makes me happier.

4. Fall Fashion

Fall is definitely one of my favorite times for fashion because I love sweaters, flannels, big cardigans, and boots. There are so many things you can do with just these few items because they are all so versatile. I love layering because like I said earlier, it can be cooler in the mornings, so if you wear a tee under your flannel you can take it off later. It will look super cute around your waist too. I also love how comfy these clothes are because I absolutely hate wearing uncomfortable clothes to class, so with Fall clothes you can be cute and comfy.

5. Halloween

Of course I saved the best for last. Halloween is such a fun holiday because you get to dress up however you want and no one will judge you. The crazier the costume, the better! I love thinking of what I want to be every year and seeing other people's costumes. Not to mention the excitement building up for Halloween because of the decorations and all the movies. No matter how many times you've watched the "Halloweentown" movies, they never get old.

I hope after reading this that you are just as pumped as I am for this Fall 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.
