8 Reasons Why We Can't Resist Fall

"Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all"-Stanley Horowitz

Autumn, also known as Fall, is a season that is truly unlike the others. There’s just something about the air getting crisper, the leaves slowly dying and carpeting the ground with their orange beauty, and the promise of scarves and lovely weather. It's the perfect time to throw a soft blanket on the ground, grab your favorite Harry Potter book, put on a flannel, and enjoy the wonders of nature. Although there are countless reasons as to why we love this time of the year so much, here are just a few to get us in the mood for the upcoming season!

1. The Leaves

How can you not "fall" in love with a picture like this?? The leaves on the ground and the remaining ones on the trees create a beautiful fiery colored scene!

2. Pumpkins

Pumpkin pie, pumpkin cake, pumpkin carving. How many things can we flavor or shape like pumpkins? Challenge accepted.

3. Scarves And Sweaters And Boots, Oh My!

Because who isn't counting the days until we can rock continuous layers of flannel?

4. Halloween

You're lying if you say you haven't already planned your costume.

5. The Sanderson Sisters

Are you really living life if you don't watch Hocus Pocus every single time it comes on tv?

6. Corn Mazes

There's nothing better than getting lost in a field of corn! Unless you've seen the scary movie "Children Of The Corn." Then there's nothing worse.

7. Haunted Houses/Forests

Because who doesn't want to pay money to be scared of the dark for the rest of the year?

8. Coffee

Pumpkin Spice. Thank you, Starbucks, for making every white girl's dream come true.


These are only a small handful of reasons why fall is simply irresistible to us. It's a time where we can finally get rid of the air conditioners and bring out the s'mores and late Friday night bonfires with friends. Thank you, Fall, for being the best!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
