Falling For Fall.. Or Not

The things we love to hate about this time of year

Falling For Fall.. Or Not
Haley Talucci

It's finally Fall, everyone's favorite time of the year. It's when the leaves change, and the weather is finally cool enough for you to stand outside for longer than four minutes. I absolutely love this time of year, everyone is cozy in their sweaters, the bonfires are almost habitual and if you're anything like me it's time to screw that diet you have been trying to start since May. As much as I love this time of the year, there are a couple of things that I could live without that are popularly associated with the months of September, October, and November.

1. Pumpkin Spice Lattes - Okay my friends, it is time that these stop. It's like a teaser for the actually delicious holiday themed drinks that don't come out for a few more months. Drinking a PSL won't make you cooler, we all know they're not that great.

2. Pumpkin Patch Pics - I am all for picking out that perfect pumpkin, going home to your roomies and carving it with your best triangle eyes and scary teeth while the seeds roast in the oven. BUT, for those of you who go to the patch to take pics and ONLY take pics, I am judging you. The bean boots look great with that Kylie matte color, but sister don't let that pumpkin rot outside your nicely fall decorated front door.

3. Uggs - The most hideous boots on the planet died with the juicy jump suits dear friends. Granted, they keep your feet incredibly warm so wear them around campus and wear them with pride. But if I catch you at the bar trying to bring these babies back, I will be the first to tell you that they will never be a thing again.

4. Raunchy Halloween Costumes - Dressing as a zombie cheerleader does not give you the excuse to wear a bra and only a bra in public. Be funny! Boys like funny too!

5. Filtering Photos - We all know where you live, we all know that the leaves don't actually turn that color. If you want to take a pretty picture of the trees and jump around in leaves, make a weekend trip to the mountains.

Of course I will say, if you're going to be that person buying the pumpkin spice lattes everyday in your Ugg boots posting pictures with radical filters, then you do you boo! I'll just be in the corner with my cold brew... judging you.

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.

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.
