The Beauty Of Fall, Told By A Southern Belle

Autumn isn't just the turning of leaves and the change of the crisp, cold air on your cheeks. It's the excitement of Friday Night Lights and the kick off of college football Saturdays. Its the hustle and bustle of school beginning again. It's the love of pumpkin spice and the of aroma of everything cinnamon and spice. Here's just a few highlights of the greatest season of all!

1. A new year means a new dorm room!

While moving into a college dorm room can be exhausting, fall means different decor for a completely fresh start to the school year.

2. Pumpkin spice everything!

Be sure to sport your leather riding boots and knitted beanie before waltzing into Starbucks with your Mac book Air.

3. Friday Night Lights are a small town tradition.

Football is a religion down here in the south, and the players are treated like local celebrities. From the cheer team to the school song played by the marching band, the entire town comes out to watch their idols under the Friday Night Lights.

4. Fall creates the joyful memories of a weekend trip to the pumpkin patch.


There's nothing more rewarding than searching for the perfect little pumpkin to take home and carve.

5. Friday Night Football might be a tradition, but College Football Saturdays are a religion!

From the pregame show, to the halftime highlights, college football is a must in the fall. Just know that buy weeks are for weddings, and Saturday mornings are spent pacing the living room floor until that first kick-off signals the start of another historical year in the life of sports.


Fall is filled with pumpkins, candy corn and the warmth of weekend bonfires. There's just something about the turning of leaves and the chill in the air that makes this season the most wonderful time of the 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.

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.
