13 Things to Watch This Halloween
Tim Burton

If you're anything like me, Halloween is one of your favorite days of the year. You get to dress up and go to costume parties and eat as much candy as you humanly can, with no judgement. But sometimes you're just not in a party mood. Last Halloween I stayed in my dorm and just binge watched a bunch of Halloween movies, and I compiled a list of my top creepy shows and movies to watch this Halloween, in case you're tired of Hocus Pocus like I am. (Plus you can go get a $3 burrito from Chipotle to eat while you watch).

1. Coraline

In my opinion, this is the most underrated creepy movie out there. It's rarely played during Halloween, but it's available at Target for $4!

2. Sweeney Todd


Because who doesn't want to watch a movie about a murderous barber and a demented baker.

3. American Horror Story

Literally every season has a different plot, making the ultimate scary show to watch.

4. Corpse Bride

Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter back at it again in another Tim Burton movie, aka the king of Halloween basically.

5. Beetlejuice

This is literally such a classic and if you don't like this movie we can't be friends.

6. Edward Scissorhands


I feel like this is a forgotten movie, considering that it's rarely played during Halloween.

7. The Nightmare Before Christmas


What's this? Just one of the best Halloween movies in existence.

8. It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

You might have a really bad Halloween, but it can't be as bad as Charlie Brown since all he gets while trick-or-treating is rocks.

9. The Woman in Black

I originally saw this because of Daniel Radcliffe, but there's the one scene with a rocking chair that messed me up real bad. 10/10 recommend watching this in the day with all the lights on and 5 friends.

10. Zombieland

Throwing in a comedy with some creepy and gory aspects.

11. Scream

Going off of the gory aspect, here's the perfect movie if you like thrills and kills. (You could also watch the MTV TV series)

12. Carrie

There's a couple versions of this movie, all having the same end result where Carrie goes insane and destroys her school dance and ends up killing people using her telekinesis powers.

13. Courage the Cowardly Dog


I don't care what you say, this is one of the creepiest shows out there, fam.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
