Fall is undoubtedly the best time of the year. Here are a few reasons why...

Cold Weather

The weather changes just enough to wear a cute sweater and boots, but not enough to make snow!

Warm Fires

Who doesn't love a fire in the fireplace? Or outside in your backyard with s'mores? Either way, fires with songs and friends make everything better.

Pumpkin Decorating

A tradition that no Halloween is complete with! Whether you carve, paint, or bedazzle your pumpkin, it just doesn't feel like fall without that warm orange color.

Baking a Pie

Mmmm, pumpkin, apple, pecan, the choices are endless!

Cinnamon Candles

What's thanksgiving without the perfect candle to set the mood?

Halloween Movie Marathons

If you're a 90's baby, Hocus Pocus, Halloweentown, and Casper were everything your Disney dreams could comprehend. You'd beg your parents to let you stay up on a school night to watch these, am I right?

Haunted Houses

Scary is an understatement, although having a good laugh with a friend can be the best past time.

Dressing Up As Someone Else (But only for a night)

Everyone wants to be someone different for a little. Whether you want to be a Fairy Princess or a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, Halloween is the perfect time to try out your new identity.

County Fairs/Pumpkin Patches

Teenage girls wait all year to take stereotypical photos in the corn fields and pose next to elaborately carved pumpkins. Why, you may ask? Because this is the time you'll want to photograph and remember forever!

Leaves Change Color

Depending on where you are, the seasons are different. In Northern California, the leaves turn a bright orange and fall endlessly.

Playing In Leaves

This timeless tradition calls for hours of fun and a cup of hot cocoa afterward.

TV

Often all the best Television shows come back in the fall, binge watching with the rain is the best!

Thanksgiving

Sweet Potatoes and Turkey often give people a food coma, but the best part may be sitting around a table with the people you're most thankful for. These smiles will often remind you that you're a valuable part of somebody's life.

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.
