If you're like me and are totally adverse to everything pumpkin spice, you'll know how annoying it is to see people get hung up on one thing in the fall. NEWS FLASH: There's more to fall than pumpkin spice such as...

1. Apple Cider Donuts...

An apple cider donut is the HOLY GRAIL of fall foods. As soon as the first day of fall hits, you better believe I'm driving to my local farm and picking up a dozen of these bad boys.

2. ...Apple Cider in General...

Also another yummy apple treat and a staple of a good fall bonfire

3. ...Or just a straight-up apple

Just bypass the donut and the cider all together and go apple picking! This is a timeless activity to do with friends or your bae, just find an orchard and go nuts!

4. Pumpkin Pie

This is my favorite type of pie to eat in the fall. And it's so easy to make! Check out a recipe here: https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/nancy-fuller/from-scratch-pumpkin-pie-2251073

5. Squash

My roommate said this one, which I only halfway endorse. However, a good bowl of my mom's butternut squash soup on a cold fall evening is one of the best things on the planet.

6. Pumpkin Seeds

These crunchy things are fantastic as an afternoon snack...or really any time of the day you want to eat them, they're perfect.

7. Pumpkin Bread/Muffins

Another one of my favorite fall baked goods that is super easy to make and yummy to boot! Find a recipe here: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/7958/pumpkin-chocolate-chip-muffins/

8. The entire Thanksgiving dinner

Asking around, it seemed like the best fall food was the entirety of Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey, cranberry sauce, gravy, mashed potatoes, warm rolls salad, green beans, I could go on and on. Point is, Thanksgiving is fantastic and Thanksgiving leftovers are even better.

9. Mac and Cheese

Mac and cheese is acceptable any time of year. Enough said.

10. Sweet potatoes 

Now before you cringe, let me tell you that roasted sweet potatoes with cinnamon, honey, and a touch of rosemary are possibly one of the best things that I've ever eaten. Try them, I promise that you won't regret it.

Remember, you don't have to settle for a PSL this fall season! Break the basic mold and try something new!

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.
