10 Reasons Why Autumn Is The Best Season

Yes, I know it's August. But I just had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season, so I am ready for fall.

Autumn or fall, whatever you call it, I love it. The weather is perfect. It's the time of the year where I get to eat all of my favorite foods, and it's just cozy. But what are the best things about fall? Here are the top ten reasons why autumn is the best season.

1. Pumpkin Spice Everything

In the fall, everything has a pumpkin spice option. From the normal coffee, lattes, cookies, and bread, to the more weirder things like cereal, coffee creamers, and even seen pumpkin spice-flavored cough drops. Pumpkin spice takes over stores and it's the most wonderful thing about autumn.

2. Crunchy Leaves

There is no better sound in nature than the sound of walking through a pile of leaves and hearing them crunch under your shoes.

3. Apple/Pumpkin Picking

This is the best autumn activity! It is a great activity for any age, whether you're with your family, a group of friends, or on a date. Picking pumpkins or apples is a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

4. Cozy Sweaters

Sweaters are my favorite style of clothing. You can dress them up or wear them down, but no matter how you choose to wear one, you always look effortlessly stylish.

5. Halloween

The best holiday of the season! A time to binge-watch all of your favorite scary movies or to re-watch "Hocus Pocus" a million times. Or if you're more into the costume part, it's a great day to harness your inner witch. Oh, and don't forget the free candy.

6. Thanksgiving

The second best holiday of the season. The warmth of family all around. The smells of your Thanksgiving meals. The holiday traditions beginning to take place.

7. New TV Shows

If you're a lover of television, then you know fall brings back your favorite shows or new TV shows. It's a great break from watching reruns all summer long.

8. Back-to-School Season

Now, this might be the nerdy Education Major coming out of me, but I love back-to-school season. New notebooks, pens, and pencils. For me, there is nothing like starting a new school year.

9. Football

From watching football on the TV to attending a game, football is a staple fall activity. It's a way to bring friends and family together and to have a great weekend to get together.

10. Warm Drinks

Goodbye iced tea, hello hot beverages! On a chilly autumn night, there is nothing more enjoyable than sipping on hot coffee, tea, cocoa, or even mulled wine. It warms you from the inside out and prepares you for the winter ahead.

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.
