I have some of my best memories during October as a kid.

Between being a princess four years in a row, jumping in piles of leaves or watching scary movies, it really was the best time. And I feel Lizzie McGuire can accurately represent my childhood excitement for the whole month of October.

1. When It's October 1st

Let the Fall festivities BEGIN!

2. When Everyone Starts To Complain It's Getting Cold

It's October, AKA the best month of the year? What's cold?

3. When You Go Pumpkin Picking And Find The Perfect One

My pumpkin looks better than your pumpkin.

4. When Someone Compliments How Good Your Pumpkin Carving Skills Are

I worked really hard on it and honestly it's just nice of you to notice.

5. When You Start Thinking Of Halloween Costumes

Okay, so none of the DIY costumes this year...

6. When You FINALLY Think Of The Perfect Costume...

It's life changing, honestly.

7. ...And Someone Else Says That's What They're Being

THE HORROR. *ba dum tiss*

8. When Scary Movies Are Finally On TV

Cue the popcorn, blankets and hiding behind someone.

9. Getting Into Your Costume On Halloween Night Like

I've never looked more *insert adjective here*.

10. When Someone Compliments Your Costume

It took me weeks to think of something that wasn't basic.

11. Looking At All The Candy You Got From Trick-Or-Treating Like

Reese's. Reese's. And more Reese's.

12. When Your Parents Told You Not To Eat It All At Once...

"Two pieces per day."

13. ...And Then You Went To Your Room And Ate It All...

TWO PIECES PER DAY? TRY 2 PIECES PER BITE

14. Waking Up To Feel Sick AF

I can never look at another piece of candy again.

15. And Then For All Your Dreams To Come Crashing Down Because..

*Counts down the days till October 1 next year*

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
