Fall is one of the best times of the year. The beautiful leaves are falling and the weather is mostly perfect. Everyone is starting to get in the holiday season mood, which makes everything so much better.

1. 13th Floor Haunted House

Who doesn't love going to a haunted house? Since there aren't any amusement parks in Columbus like Kings Island or Cedar Point, there are a few options for some scary attractions. Make sure to bring a few friends though; you never know if you'll make it out of the house!

2. Making Pillsbury Halloween Cookies 

This might be something you can do anywhere, but it is a necessity. I remember making these as a child, and they were gone within a few hours. They were always a big hit to bring to class, and everyone instantly became your best friend. This is a good way to get some friends together and have some fun. You can throw on a movie and start baking in the background. Did I mention it only takes 12 minutes to bake them?

3. Going Lynd Fruit Farm 

Not only do you get to go pumpkin picking, but you get to go apple picking! There are so many things for all ages to do here. You won't just be surrounded by children, but by older adults as well. This is surely a place to get a lot of photos for your Instagram.

4. Circleville Pumpkin Show 

If you are attending this annual pumpkin show, then the best day would have to be Sunday. On Sunday there is always a 5k at the high school, a parade, a pumpkin pie eating contest, live music, and more. Although it might be a little chilly depending on the weather, it is still a great time to be with friends and family. People of all ages are welcome!

5. Halloween Pet Parade and Fall Festival at Easton

Did someone say dogs? That right there is enough to get a bunch of your friends to go. I always love seeing dogs wearing bows around them, but imagine how cute they would be in Halloween costumes? If you have a pet, it could be really nice to end up bringing them to this parade as well!

Hopefully, if you are in Columbus you have heard of a few of these places. Fall really is a great time to relax with your friends and enjoy the beautiful scenery. There is so much to be thankful for, and what better way than to spend it with your best friends? Happy fall and happy pumpkin picking!

To The Girls With "Daddy Issues," You Are Worthy Of The Love He Never Gave You

You are not alone.

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.

Why Blair Waldorf Is The Realest Bitch To Ever Live

XOXO, Gossip Girl.

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.

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.

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!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. 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.
