Summer is still trying to keep its grip on us with these sweltering days, but autumn is just on the horizon. No matter what the weather says, the seasons are changing! Craft stores have autumn and Halloween decorations out, Spirit Halloweens are popping up in local abandoned stores, and coffee shops are breaking out the Pumpkin Spice.

Pumpkin Spice, where it may be the most popular, isn't the only new flavor we can get our hands on for the next few months. Here are six autumn flavors definitively ranked, based on my knowledge of being obsessed with autumn.

1. Apple

You thought I was going to put pumpkin first, didn't you? Nope! The turn of the leaves immediately makes me think of apple picking and apple cider. Apple flavors are easy to enjoy in the transition month of September; fruity enough to stay summery and warm enough to make you want to throw on a flannel.

2. Pumpkin Spice

Pumpkin Spice is the heart of autumn. It's the over-sweetened Starbucks Lattes and spending over 30 minutes searching for the perfect squash to carve. Pumpkin Spice is saved for chilly, wet autumn days where you find yourself wearing layers and clutching your coffee cup for the warmth.

3. Pecan

Pecan is my surprise new favorite this season. Pecans remind me of Thanksgiving and finally saying goodbye to autumn and Halloween as the stores turn to the winter holidays. This year, I've decided to enjoy pecans in their glory and enjoy them for as long as I can.

4. Cranberry

Cranberries are another winter-associated flavor that I've started to see earlier and earlier. The more I think about it, the more I find that I love the cranberry's appearance this autumn. Sweet enough to combine with pecans, and I might just make the next best combination.

5. Cinnamon

Cinnamon is appropriate for any and all times of the year, but there's something about autumn that enhances it. I get more excited about cinnamon and even find myself craving it some days.

6. Maple

Maple simply reminds me of watching the leaves change color. Lots of the time, if I'm not using maple syrup on my pancakes, maple flavoring is just too sweet for me. Definitely a slow intake sort of flavoring.

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.
