6 Reasons To Get Excited For Fall

Bye summer, hello fall.

6 Reasons To Get Excited For Fall
Tumblr

So it is now September and fall is soon upon us. Fall could possibly be one of my favorite times of the year and here is why.

1. It is not too cold that you have to pull out a heavy winter jacket but yet you can still rock your stylish new long sleeve and sweater that you just bought.

I recently just purchased a new Michael Kors fall coat that I am so excited to wear.

2. Going back to school.

What's not to love about college? You get to live with your best friends 24/7, sleepovers every night! No rules, no curfews, you are on your own to explore new friendships and learn new things. For someone who has a little OCD organizing my binders gives me a weird sense of euphoria.

3. Pumpkin Spice Lattes.

Personally I am not a huge fan of this but it is know to be the common “college girl” fall drink. Yes, I am talking about you pumpkin spice lattes from Starbucks. Starbucks’ stock must go up a tremendous amount in the fall. I am much more of a caramel apple spice person but don't worry all those girls who wait all year for their PSL it shall be returning soon.


4. Sunday nights are now designated for wings and football.

Even better then watching the game on TV with a plate full of wings and burgers is actually going to the game. Getting up to get dressed in your team’s colors and freezing your butt off seeing people tackle each other.

5. I’m fortunate to live in the northeast where the fall foliage is legendary.

I love watching the leaves change from green to yellow, orange and red. I sometimes wish that the colors would stay like that all year, but then I guess I wouldn’t appreciate the beauty as much.

6. But the absolute best part of fall is apple picking.

There is something to be said about picking your own apples. As a short person I always need a tall companion to help me out because the short people problems are real. After you spend an awesome day in a beautiful place, using the apples to make apple pies and apple cider on a fall evening could not be a better experience.

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.
