Fall is Here

I love summer. I love swimming, snow cones, and no schoolwork. However, as August and now September roll around, I realize that there are a lot of good things about fall coming, especially in college.

1. Seeing your friends again

Getting a break from school is great, but that also means not getting to see a lot of your friends for three months. Hanging out with friends and catching up is always fun.

2. Football Season

The start of football season is one of the best times of the year. Football games are exciting and fun.

3. Clothing

Flannels, layers, boots, leggings, scarfs, and more. Fall clothing has so many great options.

5. Colder Weather

In the summer in Oklahoma the weather can reach well over one-hundred degrees. You sweat, a lot. It is always nice when the temperture starts to drop.

6. Leaves change colors

I love when the leaves change colors and fall from the trees. It is always so pretty. Also, jumping in piles of leaves never gets old.


7. Holidays are Coming.

Fall is coming and that means the holidays are too. I love Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

8. Fire places

There is something so relaxing about sitting by the fire. Whether it is a fire place or a bonfire it is very calming. S'mores are also pretty tasty.

9. Television

All your favorite television shows get renewed in the fall. No more reruns, all new episodes.

10. Food

Because of Thanksgiving and the cooler weather, there are a lot of foods that are much more common in fall. Pies, soups, and casseroles just to name a few. There is also hot chocolate, coffee, and cider that come back out for the fall. Fall is tasty when it comes to food.

I love summertime and everything about it, but there are many good things about fall coming back around.

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.
