August, the eighth month of the year, has arrived. August is a time for heat, relaxation, and returning back to the daily routine. Here are eight reasons why August is the best month of the year.

1. Fall Fashion begins to appear in stores.

With students returning back to school, August brings all the new fashion. In addition, in the month of August, there are fashion weeks worldwide.

2. School starts again and that's actually a good thing.

Giphy

Most of the colleges start fall semester in the month of August. This means chatting with friends, hanging out and did I mention syllabus week?!?!? You're one semester closer to receiving the degree of your dreams.

3. August is the perfect time for traveling.

Giphy

With such good weather in prime locations, the month of August becomes the best time for a vacation.

4. The weather is great and the sun is always out in August.

Giphy

Sunshine boosts our serotonin levels, which makes us happy. In August, the sun is always out!

5. August is a popular birth month.

Giphy

I'm not even a Leo or Virgo, but I can agree August birthdays are the best. The star sign Leo is ruled by the sun. Also, August is popular for births.

6. August is a month for relaxation.

Giphy

June is hectic with graduations while July is filled with loud events like the Fourth of July. August is a month of relaxation with time for laziness.

7. August has the best sunsets.

Giphy

Since the end of July, the sky has been looking beautiful. This month is going to bring the most beautiful skies of pink and orange.

8. August is the last chance at summer.

Giphy

August is the last full month of fun before the regular work and school schedule kicks in. August is the perfect example of always following your passions. Have fun, enjoy your free time, be adventurous and be creative.

The Post Thanksgiving Panic And Anxiety

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.

Even Shonda Rhimes, winning creator and executive producer of the hit TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, and The Catch agrees that relationships with fictional characters are real. In her book, The Year of Yes she states, "I have spent more time with Meredith and Christina then many of my actual friends...When you watched TV, even spending a full hour with Christina once a week, you were likely spending more time with her then you spent with most people in your life. That relationship was real."

Going to the gym and working out on a daily basis (with breaks once in awhile) has been a great way for me to feel good about myself. It is 100% more than just looking good.
