Fall is one of my favorite seasons. The leaves are falling, the air is getting colder, I can start using blankets, and soon the snow will start falling. I love the scents of fall as well. For those of you trying to stay in fall forever (or at least until summer) and those trying to get in the fall mood, these scents are for you.

1. Apple Pie

Apples are a classic fall scent. For those that live in Washington, you know that local apples are harvested from August through November. Not only are apples a classic, but apple pie around the holidays is perfect and the mix of cinnamon and apple gives it a nice kick.

Looking for an apple pie candle to try? Check out the Warm Apple Pie Candle, $7.99 on Candlemart by Hanna's which offers good prices on high-quality candles like this one!

2. Pumpkin Pie

Just as apple pie is a classic around the holidays, pumpkin pie is just as much of a staple if not more and I'm sure many of you are chomping at the bit to get your Pumpkin Spice Lattes before they are out of season again. This Pumpkin Pie Candle from Yankee Candle is super sweet and is only $11!

3. Christmas Morning Latte

The Christmas Morning Latte is available year-round despite the name and is a Chai and White Chocolate latte that tastes and smells amazing. While Better Homes and Gardens released these wax cubes as limited edition in 2013, you can still find them on Amazon or Ebay at a pretty low price.

4. S'Mores 

While some may argue that s'mores are a summer necessity for camping trips, they are also a sweet smell of eBay trips in fall and one of the best ways to say an ode to summer as fall starts. These cute candles from Target are cutely packaged and only $9.99.

5. Apple Cinnamon

Back to the apples. As a girl from Washington, I lived in a community surrounded by orchards and apples felt like home. Adding a slight taste of cinnamon made them better and was an added improvement to the local commodity. These apple cinnamon wax melts from Glade make any dorm room or living area smell like home and Mom's cooking.

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.

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.
