WHO IS EXCITED ABOUT FALL??? I sure as hell am so stoked. Fall is definitely my favorite season out of all of them.

The first thing that I love about fall is the weather change. I am from Texas so the summer heat is absolutely brutal. You can tell that fall is coming when what is normally 114-degree weather changes into 70-degree weather. I absolutely love how it's not super cold, but also not super hot. The crisp Autumn air gives me LIFE. I no longer have to be covered in a constant sheen of sweat. I can wear cute sweaters and jackets and finally stop dying in the Texas heat.

The second thing that I love about fall is the holidays. Halloween and Thanksgiving are two of the most fun holidays. No matter how old you are, Halloween is always a blast. Whether you are a 3-year-old dressed up as a princess or a college kid dressed up as a schoolgirl, you can enjoy every minute of Halloween. Now that I'm older, it's not really socially acceptable to go trick-or-treating, but trust me, if I could, I would.

In addition to Halloween, Thanksgiving is probably my all-time favorite part about fall. Every year for Thanksgiving, my family and I go to New York to spend the holiday with our family friends. The changing of the leaves and the weather really just symbolize the fact that I will be going to New York and spending time with some of my best friends. We always spend the whole week there and because New York is such a big city, there is always something new to do. The whole concept of Thanksgiving just makes me so happy because it's a time when my family comes together and we all celebrate.

Wanna know the best part about fall: WE ARE CLOSER TO CHRISTMAS.

There must be something wrong with you if you don't enjoy Christmas. As soon as October rolls around, you know that I am blasting Christmas music. My family and I always put up our tree the day after Thanksgiving. We. Don't. Waste. Time. The Christmas decorations are OUT on November 23rd.

So, if people call you a basic bitch for loving fall and pumpkin spice lattes, I am a basic bitch with you.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
