Because it's already that time of the year.

Pumpkin Spice: A Fall Favorite Under Fire

Pumpkin Spice Latte

Acceptable: Deserves to remain on the Fall Hall of Fame because it's a classic. Starbucks even claims it will add real pumpkin in this year! Whoopie!

Pumpkin Spice M&Ms

Too Far: We know the coloring is artificial, so it is doubtful real pumpkins are used in the making of these addictive treats.

Pumpkin Spice Pop Tarts

Acceptable: Think of biting into gooey pumpkin goodness.

Pumpkin Spice Almonds

Undecided: Never would put the nut together with the pumpkin, so this requires further research.

Pumpkin Spice Ice Cream

Acceptable: Any unique ice cream flavor other than kale sounds delicious.

Pumpkin Spice Protein Powder

Too Far: This would only be sought after by autumn-loving meat heads.

Pumpkin Spice Pudding

Acceptable: This sounds like something the pilgrims learned to make on Thanksgiving.

Pumpkin Spice Dog Treats

Too Far: Yes, these exist. Anyone who feeds their dog these should be expelled from society.

Pumpkin Spice Pringles

Acceptable: At first this might seem like it had gone to far. But remember how good salty and sweet taste together...as long as they don't come out with Sour Cream and Onion, Pumpkin Spice chips.

Pumpkin Spice Perfume

Too Far: Whoever wears this scent risks being uncomfortably sniffed or eaten.

Pumpkin Spice Butter

Acceptable: Good for any holiday baking.

Pumpkin Spice Skin Tone

Acceptable: No, there isn't a new member of the Spice Girls. However, a nice warm skin color left over from the summer months is very in.

Pumpkin Spice Gum

Acceptable: As long as it's only sold seasonally.

Pumpkin Spice Candy Corn

Acceptable: Hopefully people are giving this out on Halloween.

Pumpkin Spice Bagels

Too Far: How would this even work.

Pumpkin Spice Clothing

Too Far: Why everyone else hates Americans.

Pumpkin Spice Original

Acceptable: Real pumpkins. Real spices. Only found in Granny's cooking these days.

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.
