1. Go apple picking!

Apple picking can be a really fun thing to do with your significant other! It does not cost very much and you get to eat fresh apples for the following week! Or even better... make APPLE PIE!!! Who doesn't like apple pie during the fall? (Sorry for those who do not like it or have allergies! Maybe try a different dessert.)

2. Have a pumpkin carving contest.

Buy/pick two big pumpkins, scoop out the seeds and gooey grossness and see who can come up with a more creative design besides your typical Jack o Lantern. Have your friends judge without telling them which pumpkin belongs to whom. Then you can bake the pumpkin seeds! (I just really love the food aspect of autumn.)

3. Come up with a corny Halloween costume and make it together.

Some ideas: salt and pepper, peanut butter and jelly, cookies and milk, spaghetti and meatballs. (Alright, I think I need to eat some lunch, but there are a ton of different ideas on Pinterest and many are cheap and homemade.)

4. Stay inside, snuggle up and watch scary movies all night.

Break out the popcorn, it's time to watch every single Halloween movie there is. Slasher movies, paranormal activity movies, possessed doll movies: watch them all! Keep a personal scoreboard of how many times you and your SO jump and see who is the bigger scaredy-cat.

5. Rake up the leaves in Grandma's yard and jump in the pile (then of course clean it up for her.)

Find someone in your family, your friends' families, or one of your neighbors and volunteer to help them with their yard work after the leaves fall. It's a great way to help out someone in need and have fun with your SO. Just make sure you cover up your skin to avoid any potential bugs.


6. Try a new recipe together!

It can be a very fun experience together, and if does not turn out great the first time, you can always try again or just go out to eat it if it simply turns out horrendously.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
