It's finally October!! You know what this means. HALLOWEEN SEASON IS UPON US. However, because I live in Florida and work at Disney World, Halloween season has been in full swing since August. This is because in the Magic Kingdom, Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, on select nights, has already started! So, in the spirit of the ~spooky~ season, here are 9 things that will make you wish Halloween was here already!

1. Going To A Haunted House

I still have yet to do this, but going to a haunted house is sure to make you feel all the fall vibes and scare you into the Halloween spirit.

2. 31 Nights Of Halloween

On FreeForm, there used to be something called 13 nights of Halloween. This is where they would show Halloween movies for 13 nights in a row. However, this year they expanded it to 31 nights of Halloween so you can get all your ~spooky~ movies all month long!

3. Free Candy

4. Halloweekend

As Cady Heron said in Mean Girls: " In Girl World, Halloween is the one day a year where a girl can dress up like a total slut and no other girl can say anything about it." Halloweekend is the Mean Girls version of Halloween in college and it's actually a lot of fun.

5. Decorations

If you're like me you love it when your house or apartment gets decorate for each season or holiday and it becomes a tradition each year to make your home look like you adore Halloween.

6. Pumpin Picking 

Since it's October this also means it is time to pick out the perfect pumpkin for you to get crafty with.

7. Pumpin Carving or Painting 

When you pick out the perfect pumpkin you then have to decide what design you want to carve out of your pumpkin or paint onto your pumpkin for all your trick or treaters to see displayed on your front porch! Your masterpiece gets displayed for everyone to see, and it can't count as bragging when it's a tradition!

8. Pumpkin Spice

If you're a basic white girl, you know all you look forward to during this season is pumpkin spice lattes. However, because Pumpkin Spice has become so popular, many companies are capitalizing on it and making some of their products pumpkin spice! So, you can have all the pumpkin spice items your heart desires.

​​9. All the Halloweentown Movies 

I don't know about you, but growing up with the Halloweentown movies on Disney Channel was life. I adore those movies and always look forward to watching them every year. (Unpopular opinion: Halloweentown > Hocus Pocus. Sorry Not Sorry.)


If you don't do at least one of these things this October, you will not have lived your Halloween Season to the fullest, and we don't want that. So, make sure you add at least one of these items to your must-do list for this month, or else a ghost may follow you home!

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
