Every time and place in our memories has a particular smell to it. It can be good, it can be bad -- who is to say scents that we love can't give a peek into our lives and who we are? What is your favorite candle scent and what does it say about you?

Lavender and Lilac

You like to relax. Being at peace in your world is a priority for you, so these relaxing colors and scents is a go to for you. Especially on those long days.

Apple

You live for the summertime, 4th of July, baseball, and apple pie.

Cinnamon and Gingerbread

Deck the halls. You really love being all warm and fuzzy and enjoying the holidays with your family.

Pumpkin Spice

Chances are you are probably drinking Starbucks something and wearing uggs. Fall is your favorite season and you have been wearing flannels since before flannels were cool.

Vanilla

You are as sweet as it smells and you are probably very kind-hearted.

Coconut

Where's the beach? You dig the tropical scents and are probably already planning your vacation. Warm sun, sun-kissed skin, sand between your toes... sounds perfect! Take me with you, please.

Teakwood and Mid Summer Night's Dream

Chances are you are probably a guy and you probably appreciate when people smell good, these scents are more of a musk but still smell wonderful. If you aren't a guy and like this scent, you have excellent taste because I think it smells amazing too.

Evergreen

You're weird. Ok, no you're not, but this very STRONG scent means you appreciate the outdoors and your idea of a great vacation is probably somewhere in the pines.

Rose

You are probably a woman, you appreciate the finer, delicate things in life.

Cotton Candy

You are sweet and playful, possibly reminiscent of your childhood carnival days.

Sweet Pea

You like the light, but sweet scents. You enjoy smelling like a girl and having a clean room to go with it.

Clean Linen and Cotton

You appreciate the little things like a clean house, clean sheets, washed dishes and really enjoy having your life together. Clean cut and you probably like your clothes ironed.

I know I am missing a ton of scents, but there are just so many. Just like there are so many unique individuals in this world. Didn't see yours? Comment your favorite scent and share with your candle loving pals!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
