7 Reasons Why I Can't Wait For Autumn

Autumn is seriously the greatest time of year. The leaves change, you don't sweat profusely all the time from the hot sun, it means that Christmas is close and all the best activities in the world at your finger tips. These are my top seven things I can't wait to do once Autumn comes!

1. Hikes

Hiking is generally is amazing, and summer hikes are so fun, but the atmosphere is totally different when you hike in autumn. The whole place looks different. The ambiance of a place changes drastically when there are leaves colored red, orange and yellow all around. When their is wildlife all over and a crisp scent in the air. I can't to see how pretty nature is when the season changes.

2. Pumpkin Patch/Corn maze

As a kid my parents always brought me to the pumpkin patch which also had a corn maze. It wasn't Halloween without carving pumpkins and eating pumpkin seeds and getting lost with all the twists and turns in the maze.

3. Apple Picking

Who doesn't love cheap food and the experience of picking the prettiest apples and eating a few on the way (even though you aren't supposed to).

4. Halloween

I was never seriously into Halloween but as I get older I see how much fun it can be transforming into anything I want for the night and seeing the different personas that everyone takes on. It makes you wonder if people truly are who they want to be.

5. Haunted Houses

I haven't been to a haunted house in forever but i really want to go this year! The scary movies that plague the television before Halloween is my favorite. Who doesn't like a little scare every once in awhile?! Lighten up, people. It's fun!

6. Flannels and Combat boots

If I could live in flannels and combat boots all year long, I would. Autumn is the perfect excuse to only wear my flannels and leggings and boots everyday and no one can say anything to me about it because I am in Autumn spirit.

7. My TV Shows Are Starting New Seasons

Shameless and American Horror Story and both going to be on this Autumn and it makes my little heart so happy to know that I have a little extra to look forward to after a long day of classes.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.
