I'm a Halloweenie

I'm a Halloweenie

Well, it's finally here. The day were everyone can dress up, walk around neighborhoods without anyone calling the cops, and it's socially acceptable. The night where we (kids) go door to door asking strangers for candy and once again, nobody bats an eyelash. I was trick-or-treating through high school, and boy do I wish to have those days back. When I could walk up to peoples houses, with parental supervision obviously, while being as obnoxious as possible in the hopes that I'd get a Reese's or a Snickers.

Damn, I wish I could still do that. Today, if I were to go Trick-or-Treating, I'd be given weird looks like, "who the hell is this guy?"

Some mom would be like, " ummm excuse me sir, but aren't you a little bit too old to be trick-or-treating?"

"Uhhh... try no, lady. Now why don't you and Kylo Ren get to steppin'."

I'm just a guy who wishes there was no age limit on going Trick-or-Treating. The thrill over knocking on someone's door in hopes that, as the saying goes, that they'll give you something good to eat. Not raisins, candy corn, or dots, those are the worst.

Remember going back home and sorting your candy by labels? All the Snickers go in one pile, the Reese's would go in another, etc. And then going to school the next day with your candy in your bag making trades for your friends candy.

Ahhh the good ole days.

That's it! I'm going to go trick-or-treating. I'll see y'all at the front door!

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.

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.
