We have now reached the time of the year when the air is cooler, and the outside heat is slowly going away, making its way for the best time of the year, autumn. Last Sunday we officially had to say goodbye to the excessively bright and hot summer rays. We can now finally welcome fall, and its ever-comforting array of treats and festivities. During this time of the year, aside from Spring people can rest from the excessive cold or heat from winter and summer and finally relax for once. I am just absolutely thrilled I am to finally be able to embrace the time of the year when I can just be comfortable in this sweater weather.  

The weather is not the only thing the season has going for it that make autumn the best season of the year. The setting and atmosphere also manage to get a brand-new change. The leaves start falling and turning from their original green to a muted red and yellow color. Along with it comes the numerous amounts of decorated pumpkins, and jack-o lanterns that always bring about an alluring presence to the outside. 

The season also brings us delectable autumnal treats and beverages as well. Although I highly recommend eating pumpkin bread and pumpkin pie at all times of the year, this is probably the most acceptable time to do it in society. Not to mention that this is the best moment right now for a warm beverage as well. 

However, the best aspect of the fall season is that it contains one of the best holidays of all time, Halloween. Sure, Thanksgiving is in fall too, but in reality, that is just the chaotic little prologue to Christmas. Halloween on the other hand is its own grandiose event. As an avid lover of all thing’s horror and décor, I’ve been a fan of Halloween for as long as I can remember. Dressing up and watching horror movies has become a tradition for me, and as I’ve grown up I have made more elaborate costumes as well. Through Halloween parties, trick or treating, or just watching a scary movie, there are various ways to celebrate Halloween no matter the age. I have always had a soft spot for the holiday. 

The months of Autumn may not last that long, but the season, but there is no limit to the abundance of things that can be done or seen throughout the season. It is the perfect medium for both summer and winter which has left a large impact in multiple people including myself.
