Trick or Treating is awesome, but sometimes there're those types of treats that feel more like tricks, they're so gross. Like, who actually wants these when there's Reese's and York patties and Blowpops to be had?

1. Whoppers

Forever the leftovers at the bottom of the mixed candy bowls, only a few people actually enjoy these little balls of pointlessness.

2. Bit-O-Honey

It sticks to the paper and is the color of snot. It also sticks in your teeth afterward with a vengeance.

3. Lemonheads

Because I always wanted to make my mouth bleed with so-called candy the flavor of lemon Pledge dusting spray!

4. Werther's Caramels

Normally these are yummy, but nothing screams "I forgot candy so I just picked these leftovers from last Christmas off my side table for you" like Werther's Caramels.

5. Mary Janes

To quote Tim Hawkins, "They taste like peanut butter and hair."

6. Good and Plenty

More like "Nope and Nopety." Unless you are one of those black souls who likes jelly beans the color of your soul, boxes of Good and Plenty are good for nothing except maybe maracas.

7. Unwrapped Circus Peanuts

Just why would you even subject me to something that is essentially flavored styrofoam that's been touched by all the other Trick or Treaters that have passed through.

8. Wax anything (lips, fangs)

Chewing crayons might take less time and gives the same effect, anyway.

9. Jelly beans

This is NOT EASTER, PEOPLE.

10. Necco Wafers

They smell like CVS and aren't smarties, so, no thanks.

11. Candy Canes

Some of us wait 'til after Thanksgiving for Christmas, you know.

12. Raisins

Raisins are NOT CANDY and INFECT CHOCOLATE with raisin flavor. DON'T BE THAT GUY.

13. Apples

Unless I'm bobbing for apples in a questionable container that's full of 80 percent water and 20 percent other people's saliva, like Lucy in "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown," I'm good.

14. Anything that's not candy

Oh, of course, I dressed up to get a plastic glow-in-the-dark skeleton, a youth group tract, a toothbrush, a McDonald's toy, a lint-magnet of a bouncy ball and those jelly hand things that stick to the wall/collect dust. Thank you!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
