There are countless reasons why I love Halloween. In fact, it may be one of the best holidays. The weather is great, not too hot but not too cold. The leaves are brilliant colors and are coating the ground. Bonfires, hoodies, flannels and pumpkin spice lattes have officially made their appearance. On top of all of this, getting to dress up as anything you want and how you want is just extremely fun and exciting. You get to be a kid again, which is great, even if it is just for a day. However, 24 hours can go by fast, so you should try to enjoy it as much as you can. While you're busy enjoying this happily haunted holiday, here's some things you should try to remember to do this Halloween.

1. Dress up.

Whether you want to dress up in a funny, sexy or scary, just do it. Whatever you want to be. You can go all out or keep it simple. Buy a costume or try some DIY projects. It's the one night of the year you can be anyone you want. Live a little.

2. Watch a Halloween themed movie.

I'm not going to lie, I am such a baby when it comes to scary movies. My imagination runs wild and everything I see stays with me forever. So if you're like me, it's OK to keep it simple and watch "Hocus Pocus" or "Halloweentown". Or, if you're feeling brave enough, you can try something a bit more intense. Either way, at least watch one Halloween feeling movie. You have to.

3. Decorate a pumpkin.

Who doesn't love carving pumpkins? Actually, I'm sure a lot of us don't. I myself am awful at carving pumpkins, but I can still paint them and make them look cute. So grab a pumpkin and decorate away. It can keep you company on this chilly, creepy night.

4. Eat lots and lots of candy.

I mean, this is what this holiday is for, after all. Or at least that's what I'm going to keep telling myself. And to celebrate right, go to the store and get a huge bag of your favorite candy. The best part is, everyone will think it's for your trick-or-treaters. No one will ever know you're actually just going to go home and stuff your face with the entire bag in less than ten minutes.

5. Go to a pumpkin patch.

How can you let Halloween pass without going to a pumpkin patch? It's not truly Fall until you've been to at least one of them. Plus, you can get some of the cutest Fall pictures there too. Go ahead and be basic and take a picture with a pumpkin on your head, we won't judge. You get bonus points if you go on a hayride too.

6. Eat more candy.

Seriously, we're not judging. Besides, I'm pretty sure calories don't even exist on holidays, to begin with. You do you.

Enjoy this festive fall holiday. Happy Halloween!
