Call me a typical late-teens/early twenties girl, but I absolutely adore fall. How can you not? The leaves are changing, the air feels fresh and crisp, the temperatures are starting to cool down, and, of course, it's the season for Thanksgiving and Halloween (at least in Canada, where I come from)! I have to admit, October is one of my favorite months - there's something to be said about a month that is apparently dedicated to giving you excuses to eat way too much!
I'm pretty easy to please when it comes to season changes - after winter, I love when the temperature rises, and of course, after summer, I love when the temperature falls. As pretty much every girl around my age has tweeted, it's about time for hoodies and boots and Pumpkin Spice Lattes (though I've honestly never tried that last one). There's something about the crispness and the smell of wood fires in the air that just feels refreshing and comfortable.
I think my favorite thing about fall, though, would have to be the leaves changing colors and falling to the ground. Me being the person I am, I find it kind of poetic. As human beings who are generally afraid of change and death and decay, we look at the season changing, the leaves dying and falling to the ground to decay, and we call it beauty. It makes you wonder what else could be seen as beautiful, given a different perspective or circumstance.
