One of the first things that comes to mind when thinking about Halloween is all of the scares and spooks that come from the haunted houses and creepy costumes. However, being scared isn't exactly everyone's forte and sometimes we'd much rather play it safe than have the shit scared out of us. For all of you Halloween lovers who would prefer to keep your pants unsoiled, this is for you.


1. Pumpkin Picking.

Because who doesn't love to run through fields of grass looking for that perfect pumpkin to take that perfect Instagram selfie with? Not only can you bank on getting the perfect pumpkin, but you get the perks of roasted corn, caramel apples, and petting zoos! The perfect fix in broad daylight for someone who isn't looking to freak out over zombies and clowns.

Maybe you don't like the thrill of being scared, but being lost could be right up your ally. Corn mazes are a great way to get some adventure out of the Halloween season without being completely terrified of something jumping out at you.


3. Jack-O-Lantern Festivals.

What better way to get into a modest Halloween spirit than watching thousands of creatively carved jack-o-lanterns being lit up? These little festivals really bring out the pumpkin carving spirit of Halloween, and also act as a nice way to relax with some friends and family as you see people’s beautiful work light up.


4. Costume Parties.

Who said these had to be scary? Dressing up is in my personal opinion the best part about Halloween. Maybe we’re too old to trick-or-treat, but that doesn’t mean we still can’t dress up in some elaborate or witty costume and have a good time! Sure, some people enjoy to dress up in scary costumes, but they’re usually not out to scare you! Go enjoy some pumpkin beer and put together your best look.


5. 13 Days of Halloween.

You know you love being able to sit down and get your "Halloweentown" marathon fill in. All of these classic family movies are some of the best things that come around during Halloween. Who needs "Paranormal Activity" when I can sit and enjoy singing, "This Is Halloween," with Jack Skellington? Grab your popcorn and take that seat on the couch with ABC.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
