Falling Into The New Season

Why we love autumn so much

Falling Into The New Season
Forbes

As the leaves begin to change into the colors of deep orange and bright red, pumpkin spice flavors come back, and we throw on our sweaters to head to class, fall is beginning once again. There is nothing better than the crisp fall air, the light breeze and the crunching of the leaves under our feet as we walk outside.

With all we have to look forward to with the Fall season, here are the top 10.

1. Fall fashion.

Whether it be Steve Madden combat boots, boot socks, or oversized sweaters, it's impossible to run out of outfits for the season. Flannels, head wraps and dark colors are in as of October.

2. Change it up.

That dark new hair color you wanted? Yeah, its time. Transitioning to that deep brown style that you saw on Pinterest is more than welcome now that fall has arrived. If you're blonde and want to add something deeper to your color, try an ombre or some caramel highlights.

3. Pumpkin Picking.

There is nothing cuter than going pumpkin picking with your friends, family, or significant other. It makes for an adorable date and an even cuter Instagram picture once carved. Jack-O-Lanterns are your new calling.

4. Apple Picking.

Probably the best and most original way to make homemade apple pie, apple picking is the best fall activity. Be prepared to get a little muddy and unleash your inner 6-year-old when that big tractor rolls around for free rides.

5. Walks through the woods.

Hikes are the best way to enjoy the fall scenery as Upstate New York and New Jersey make way to its beautiful new landscape.

6. Halloween.

Whether you still trick-or-treat, or dress up like a Disney Princess at age 21, Halloween never gets old no matter how old you turn. Decorating outdoors, as well as indoors, is a nice way to enjoy the upcoming holiday.

7. Outdoor Fires.

Sitting around with the people closest to you and burning s'mores over an open fire while you huddle to keep warm is an enjoyable way to end the chilly night.

8. Thanksgiving.

A giant stuffed turkey, family and a dozen of assorted pies, Thanksgiving is the medium between Halloween and Christmas. Gathering around in front of a massive table filled with food is a good time if you ask me.

9. Fall means you're halfway done with your college semester.

The halfway point between October and December, you're almost finished with your fall semester. Woot woot.

10. Football.

The NFL is the best part about fall. All the major league games, tailgating, and fashionable NFL attire, makes way for the best day of the week, football Sundays. Break out that blue, New York Giants are back.

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.
