With Halloween being on a Tuesday this year, if you have any classes before like 11 on Wednesday, your options of what you can do are pretty limited. That's where I'm at too. Sure, I plan on going to Rocky Horror, but that's at like midnight and I need something to do before and while I wait for Trick-or-Treaters. Halloween movies here I come. Some of these are on Netflix, some I personally own.

1. Hocus Pocus

A staple of Halloween if you grew up on DCOMs. Also bonus: the man who played Billy is a BSU Alum!

2. The Nightmare Before Christmas

The obvious cult favorite. To this day, the Boogies are some of my favorite villains.

3. Edward Scissorhands

Let's just go ahead and have it established that this list will have the best-of-the-best Tim Burton movies. Also, like Winona Ryder AND Johnny Depp? You can't blame me.

4. The Ouija Movies

Ouija and Ouija: Origin of Evil

5. Coraline

6. The Chucky Movies

7. The Scary Movies

8. It Follows

This movie is actually about a killer STD... pardon my pun, if you've seen the movie. It's really good and I think it's super underrated!

9. Nightmare on Elm Street

10. Halloween

One Halloween, my best friend and I were watching this and a guy dressed as Michael Meyers walked down past the window *shudder*

11. The Addams Family

And Addams Family Values, obviously.

12. Lizzie Borden Took An Axe

Because I love me some Christina Ricci.

13. Corpse Bride

14. Sleepy Hollow

All of the Johnny Depp! Yes please!

15. The Babadook

Since his boyfriend, Pennywise, has his remake out, it only makes sense.

16. Hush

If you haven't watched this on Netflix yet, you need to! I've never seen another movie like it!

17. Children of the Corn

18. The VHS Movies

They're a little strange, but definitely good horror movies.

19. Death Note

If you're a fan of the anime, just try to think of it as a separate entity with the Death Note concept because then it's a great movie! As a live-action Death Note, though, it's shit.

20. The Saw Movies

21. Teeth

Males, you may want to avert your eyes for this one.

22. Hellraiser

23. The Blair Witch Project

24. The Paranormal Activity Movies

I saw the first one in theaters in like middle school and was so spooked. I have since made sure I've seen them all for continuity purposes and the last one is a little trippy. They may be kind of a joke but I highly recommend them.

25. The Ward

To this day, this is one of my favorite horror movies because you never see the ending coming.

26. The Rite

If you're a Once Upon a Time fan, you'll recognize the priest-in-training.

And last, but certainly not least:

27. Halloweentown

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
