Six Reasons To Love Fall

I have to admit that I love fall, and I don’t understand why some people aren’t as passionate about fall as I am. I look forward to fall all year, and when fall finally arrives, I get as excited as a small child on Christmas morning. Bellow I have compiled six (of the many) reasons on why I love fall, and why you should too.

1. No More Scorching Hot Weather

Bathing in the sun’s rays may feel great, but the daily dose of scalding temperatures will not be missed. It’s great to say goodbye to the days of being branded by your car’s seat belt and having your sweaty skin stick to literally everything.

2. But It's Not Freezing Either

Temperature extremes are not really a fan-favorite. Its chilly enough out to wear that cute sweater you love, but you don’t have to cover it up by a puffy winter coat just yet.

3. Fall Colors

The beautiful colors seen during fall aren't often thought of as beautiful as they are. But the rich reds and golden yellows always bring a smile to my face. It’s also a blast to run through all of the fallen leaves. Playing in the leaves is definitely not just for kids!

4. Delicious Warm Drinks

Fall is the best time to sip a chai latte, a warm apple cider, or even a hot tea. Now close your eyes and imagine taking a nature walk with your favorite warm drink in hand.

5. There Are Apples And Pumpkins Galore!

I don’t know about you, but visiting apple orchards and pumpkin patches are the things that I look forward to the most. Picking apples and choosing pumpkins with friends and family makes so many great memories. Plus, you can bake the apples and pumpkins into delicious deserts after!

6. Halloween

Halloween is one of the only times of the year when everyone can play dress-up with zero judgement involved. And with Halloween comes candy, fun costumes, parties, and the occasional adorable dog dressed as a dragon.

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.
