Now that we are in the month of October, we can begin our Halloween festivities. Everyone has their own traditions, yet here are just a few that really get you in the spirit for this particular holiday.

1. Carve a pumpkin

After carving your pumpkin, clean all of the seeds out and bake them. They make for such a delicious snack that make all the carving troubles worthwhile.

3. Paint a pumpkin

If you don’t enjoy the mess and hassle of carving a pumpkin, then paint it. Invite your friends over, and paint your hearts out.

4. Watch the '13 nights of Halloween' on Freeform

What better way to get in the spirit than numerous Halloween movies after another? If you miss your favorite one night, it is sure to be on another day throughout the thirteen.

5. Bake Pillsbury cookies

These are absolutely the best cookies ever. The choice between pumpkin or bat print is a tricky one, but they are delicious no matter which you choose.

6. Dress up

What would Halloween be without a costume anyway? As a child, I always looked forward to what I was going to be the year after.

Amongst Halloween festivities, there are numerous other fall things to do, as well. It is a great time to spend outdoors before the brisk weather turns into freezing.

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.

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.
