In This Article:

Autumn is one of my favorite times of the year, I love that it can be cold, but not too cold. Fall is the time for fuzzy socks and warm drinks. The leaves change colors and I am allowed to wear all the sweaters in my closet.

There is so much I love about Fall and what comes with it.

1. Halloween

Halloween is my favorite holiday by far. The candy, the dressing up, I love it all. Halloween is the one time of year that you can dress up and not be judged for letting your inner child free.

2. Warm Tea

I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but nothing makes me feel better than cozying up with a warm cup of tea. Tea and a good book on a nice fall day can is the best feeling.

3. Fall Clothes

Fall weather brings fall clothes, and I am definitely here for big cozy sweaters.

4. The Leaves

I love how many colors there are, the different hues of reds, oranges, and yellows. I love the sound of leaves crunching underneath my boots as I walk through the colors. I love leaf piles big enough for me to jump into.

5. Wizarding Weekend (This one is for mostly being in Ithaca)

What says Halloween and Autumn more than a wizarding festival? Answer, nothing. Harry Potter is the epitome of fall and what fall feels like. Harry Potter brings witches and warlocks from everywhere together to celebrate in the Ithaca Commons a spooky celebration.

6. 31 Nights of Halloween

Freeform has decided to change thirteen nights of Halloween to Thirty One Nights of Halloween and I am honestly living for it. Watching Halloween movies is my favorite pastime. Autumn is also my excuse to force my friends to watch scary movies with me.

7. Decorating

The minute it turns October 31st my room is transformed. I love adding halloween and fall decorations that will not come down until christmas. Our door is decorated with fake eyes and signs, and my dresser has glittered pumpkins all over it.

Autumn is my favorite season because of everything it brings. I appreciate the atmosphere it brings and all the experiences that come.

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

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.
