Halloween doesn't have to be about partying. Here are some ideas to fill your spooky season.

1. Bake some Halloween treats for your neighbors or roommates , or heck, even yourself.

Baking is always a fun activity to do and it's even better when you can create sweet treats that will get you into the Halloween spirit. Put on your favorite mix of spooky music, I suggest the Haunted Mansion queue music, and bake some ghost cake pops, Frankenstein cupcakes, or some mummies in a blanket (instead of pigs in a blanket) and celebrate spooky season. You might even feel brave enough to attempt making your own homemade version of the famous pumpkin spice latte! After your done baking, share the spread of treats you made with roommates or neighbors, I'm sure they will be thankful that you did.

2. Have a Halloween movie marathon.

Halloween movies are always great. Plus, they get you in a spooky mood. There are so many to choose from, from "Twitches" to the ever-famous "Hocus Pocus," there's bound to be something that you'll enjoy. Pop in a spooky movie, grab some popcorn and candy (of course) and celebrate Halloween! Not only is there a bunch of movies to choose from so you can literally have a Halloween movie marathon. This is a great thing to do with friends or even by yourself. If you don't enjoy the Halloween party scene, this activity is for you.

3. Hand out candy to the trick-or-treaters.

Handing out candy to the trick-or-treaters is always a good idea, especially if, like me, you don't have any plans this Halloween. You'll be able to enjoy Halloween, get in the Halloween spirit, and you just might be able to snag a couple pieces of candy for yourself. Not to mention, who doesn't love seeing all of the little kids in your neighborhood dress up in costume each year? I personally love seeing all of the little pirates, princesses, ghosts, and goblins trick-or-treat each year. Plus, little kids dressed up in costumes equals a cuteness overload. Am I right or am I wrong?

4. Become a scare actor in your local haunted house.

Who hasn't thought about what it would be like to be a scare actor at least once in their life? I know I have. Even if you don't enjoy being scared or even watching scary movies like me, being a scare actor in a haunted house is pretty cool, in my opinion. Not only do you get the opportunity to witness the inner workings and behind the scenes operations of a haunted house, but you also get to wear tons of cool, spooky special effects makeup and you get to be a part of something that will surely be an experience you will never forget. It may even turn out to be your best Halloween yet.

Overall, don't worry if you don't have plans for Halloween, because I can guarantee you that if you end up following one of my suggestions, you will probably end up having a great Halloween night.

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.

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.

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.
