WHO IS EXCITED ABOUT FALL??? I sure as hell am so stoked. Fall is definitely my favorite season out of all of them.

The first thing that I love about fall is the weather change. I am from Texas so the summer heat is absolutely brutal. You can tell that fall is coming when what is normally 114-degree weather changes into 70-degree weather. I absolutely love how it's not super cold, but also not super hot. The crisp Autumn air gives me LIFE. I no longer have to be covered in a constant sheen of sweat. I can wear cute sweaters and jackets and finally stop dying in the Texas heat.

The second thing that I love about fall is the holidays. Halloween and Thanksgiving are two of the most fun holidays. No matter how old you are, Halloween is always a blast. Whether you are a 3-year-old dressed up as a princess or a college kid dressed up as a schoolgirl, you can enjoy every minute of Halloween. Now that I'm older, it's not really socially acceptable to go trick-or-treating, but trust me, if I could, I would.

In addition to Halloween, Thanksgiving is probably my all-time favorite part about fall. Every year for Thanksgiving, my family and I go to New York to spend the holiday with our family friends. The changing of the leaves and the weather really just symbolize the fact that I will be going to New York and spending time with some of my best friends. We always spend the whole week there and because New York is such a big city, there is always something new to do. The whole concept of Thanksgiving just makes me so happy because it's a time when my family comes together and we all celebrate.

Wanna know the best part about fall: WE ARE CLOSER TO CHRISTMAS.

There must be something wrong with you if you don't enjoy Christmas. As soon as October rolls around, you know that I am blasting Christmas music. My family and I always put up our tree the day after Thanksgiving. We. Don't. Waste. Time. The Christmas decorations are OUT on November 23rd.

So, if people call you a basic bitch for loving fall and pumpkin spice lattes, I am a basic bitch with you.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
