Some of us may have a better time easing into the colorful scenes and chillier weather of the fall, while others are struggling to find that spooky spirit and get their minds away from summer. Here's a few reasons for us all to get excited about this fall season!

1. Candles.

I don’t know about you, but I love all the fall scents Bath and Body Works has to offer! Pumpkin Apple (the best), Harvest Gathering, Leaves, Flannel, Sweater Weather, and so many more. They give a nice hint of fall to any room, and are just one of the many reasons to adore the season!

Decorations.

I love driving through my neighborhood and seeing everyone's houses decorated with skeletons, pumpkins, and all the fun fall decorations. It's something a lot of people really get into, so it's nice to see it almost everywhere. Not just the decorations, but some of the great deals that come with them! I recently picked up a few decorations at Walmart just to start decorating, and I got plenty of cute mini pumpkins to place around the house for $2.98. Even if you are a broke college student, there are always little ways to get into the spooky spirit!

3. Fall Festivities.

We are all suckers for the apple orchards, cider mills, and pumpkin patches. I'll be the first to admit it! It's such a fun time to get together with loved ones and pick apples or the perfect pumpkin. Using those apples to make apple pie, carving those pumpkins and scooping all the guck out, drinking cider and tasty cinnamon donuts with family, watching all the scary movies you can. It's all so much fun squished into a few months.

Treats

Trick or Treat? Treats! Fall brings us some of the best and most fun treats of the year. First up, pumpkin spice or just pumpkin flavor in general. It's so popular, my favorite pumpkin spice treat isn't the Pumpkin Cream Cold Blew at Starbucks! You won't regret it if you plan to try it out. There are also caramel apples and even caramel apple suckers, cider donuts, candy corn, and enough Halloween candy to go around!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
