Dear Freeform, Your '31 Nights Of Halloween' Lineup Is So Bad It's Scary

No mad, just disappointed.

Dear Freeform,

I want to start by saying that I love that it has turned into "31 Nights of Halloween" rather than 13. If Christmas is allowed to have 25 days, then it seems only fair. Plus, Halloween is so much better than Christmas, and it deserves to be celebrated for the entire month. Maybe I'm a little bias considering it's my favorite holiday, but I was so disappointed when I saw the line-up.

First of all, since when is "Frozen" a Halloween movie? The last time I checked, Halloween didn't take place in the winter. Reindeer are also not a part of Halloween. There's nothing even Halloween related in the movie, so I don't understand why it is included in the line-up.

Some great Halloween movies like "Corpse Bride", "Frakenweenie", "Twitches", "Beetlejuice", and "Ghostbusters" were left off the list. What really bothered me is "Casper" and "Halloweentown" were left off as well. How are you going to leave off two movies that are completely based on Halloween? One of them even has "Halloween" in the name!

Some other movies included on the line-up shouldn't be on there either. "Charlie and The Chocolate Factory", "The Parent Trap", "Despicable Me", and "Bolt" are not Halloween movies and shouldn't have even been considered to be on the list.

If you're going to make a "31 Nights of Halloween" line-up, at least make it a good one with some decent movies. Don't forget some fantastic Halloween movies and throw in ones that have nothing to do with the holiday. If you're going to do it, at least do it right, and don't disappoint Halloween-lovers like myself.

Sincerely,

A Disappointed Fan

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
