6 Things To Look Forward To Now That It's Fall

Call me basic if you want but I prefer "spirited".

Well friends.. it's that time of the year again which makes for some stirred up excitement and great Thanksgiving stuffing. As summer has drawn to a close (even somewhat for Texas, shocker, I know) there are quite a few things to smile about.

1. Pumpkin Patches

From the beautiful scenery to the adorable pumpkin patch pictures, what's not to love?!

2. Flannels & Boots

Also known as "flannel season," these puppies are great for not only keeping you warm (if you get the right kind) but also keeping you fashionably up to date with the current Fall demands. However, we can't forget the boots. Uggs, Riding Boots, and Bean Boots. Let's face it though, you can never have too many flannels or well..shoes in general.

3. Pumpkin Spice Lattes

Bet you didn't see that one coming at all huh? Who am I kidding, that's probably the first thing that comes to your mind when the word "Fall" is even mentioned. No need to be ashamed though because believe it or not, most of the population is just as obsessed with these miracle workers as you are.

4. Four Words: Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas

One minute you're wearing a Batman custom and as soon as that clock strikes 12, that Christmas tree is up and ready to go, you're in your fuzzy (and itchy, just admit it) reindeer sweater with a cup of hot chocolate in your hands, some tacky Christmas socks on and a movie playing. No shame. None.

5. Thanksgiving Facebook and Instagram Posts

Ahhh, yes, the time to be thankful suddenly goes into full drive once you're sitting around that table with your loved ones and the turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, green beans, and gravy are all put out on the table.


6. Bonfires

There's nothing like those late nights where you're gathered with your friends around a pit of burning wood with the warmth from the fire blowing in your face, attempting to roast a marshmallow that eventually catches on fire, all while trying not to choke on all the smoke that just so happens to be blowing only in your direction. Hey, at least that s'mores still tasted great though.

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.
