It’s official, we’re one week away from the first day of fall! Yep, that’s right just 7 whole days until September 22, when you can shamelessly break out those leggings, trendy sweaters and pumpkin spice galore!

We’re counting down the days until fall with these 7 reasons to be excited!

1. Pumpkin Spice Everything

Yep, you guessed it! Pumpkin spice is already pretty much everywhere and let’s be honest; it couldn’t have come soon enough. We know, judge us as you might while we sip on our lattes and light up our seasonal candles this fall.

2. Leggings—Leggings Everyday

Go ahead, let you’re inner basic white girl shine and break out those comfy leggings you’ve been dying to wear all summer. When else can you get away with going out in basically sweats and an over-sized shirt or sweater? Unless you’ve got a workout planned or just choose to rock leggings at the grocery store, we know you’ve been waiting for the cooler weather to come along.

3. Boots, Boots and More Boots

What’s almost as exciting as bringing your leggings back out? That’s right, boots! We know you’ve been looking for an excuse to step into those new boots but the temperatures just don’t justify it yet. Well don’t worry, we’re just one week out from the official first day of fall and you can shamelessly rock your new kicks.

4. Football Season is in Full Swing

Football is everywhere during this time of year! After kicking off the college season with a record-breaker at the Battle at Bristol, it’s safe to say, football season is here. Once NFL and college football is back on TV, craze that runs from Thursday through Monday.

5. Bonfires & Fall Festivals

You can’t resist a good bonfire this season, after all, is it really fall without a bonfire? Top that off with some county fairs and some home grown music festivals, who wouldn’t be excited?

6. Scenic Hikes and Outdoor Adventures

The colors of fall are by far one of the best features to look forward to! And there’s no better time to enjoy a hike when the temperature starts to cool. You wont regret heading out for a new outdoor adventure this season.

7. Halloween Fun

Last but not least, what’s fall without some Halloween fun? Get ready for costume parties, corn mazes, haunted houses and horror movie reruns! Oh and don’t forget, the sugar overload from all the tasty Halloween goodies.

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.
