Why Fall is the Best Season

Don't fight me on this one.

What's the best season, you ask? The answer is simple: Autumn. From the slight breeze to the bonfires, there are countless reasons why the other seasons just don't compare. Here are a few of the many.

1. Fall has the perfect weather.

Not to be all "Goldilocks" here, but winter's too cold, summer's too hot, spring's too rainy, fall is just right. Almost every day has "sweater weather" and the leaves changing color on the trees is so beautiful. Not to mention some of the greatest nature pictures are taken during the fall. Here is one I took last year.

2. Halloween.

There's something special about Halloween. No matter how old you are, you can get pumped for it. Whether you like dressing up, going to Fright Fest, or just eating candy corn, there's an aspect of it for everyone, I mean, who doesn't love "The Sanderson Sisters"?


3. Seasonal foods and drinks.

If you're like me, you're the first one in the Starbucks line when they bring back the pumpkin spice latte. There are so many delicious treats that belong to autumn: apple cider, candy corn, caramel apples, apple pie, pumpkin pie (really any pie). Not to mention there's a whole holiday dedicated to stuffing your face.



4. It's a cozy season.

There's nothing "cozy" about spring or summer. Winter is cozy, but it can be too cold sometimes. Fall is the best time to cozy up with a blanket, a Bath and Body Works fall candle, hot chocolate and a good book. If that doesn't make you excited for fall, I don't know what will. I mean, look at this!

5. All the activities!

Fall is the season of fun: apple picking, pumpkin picking, haunted houses, pumpkin carving, the list goes on.

6. Football games.

Football games deserve their own category. In high school, there was nothing better than going to a Friday night football game with friends. If you are lucky enough to go to a college with a football team, the tradition lives on!

7. The anticipation for the holidays.

You might be thinking, the holidays are a winter thing! True. But, in my opinion, the best part of the holiday season is the time spent beforehand building up excitement for it. Once fall hits and the weathers gets a little chilly, we realize how much closer we are to Christmas, Hanukkah, etc. Basically me the day after Thanksgiving:


8. The leaves.

That may sound a bit strange, but how awesome are the leaves? There's something so satisfying about stepping on the crunchy leaves, or watching them fly around when the wind kicks them up. Fall is the most tranquil season, don't fight me on this.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
