Hocus Pocus

Had to start off with a classic! This nostalgic flick will get you right in the spirit for Halloween.

Sixth Sense 

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjS0-6NwundAhVq34MKHYITCd0QjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftenor.com%2Fview%2Fhaley-joel-osment-isee-dead-people-sixth-sense-gif-11333995&psig=AOvVaw260q1m7js0G2TIP_N8AWVR&ust=1538630148070507

This is a classic spooky tale. The eirie factor will stay with you even after the credits role.

Nightmare on Elm Street 

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwinye7ixOndAhXj8YMKHcFECPsQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fitunes.apple.com%2Fca%2Fmovie%2Fa-nightmare-on-elm-street%2Fid308625280&psig=AOvVaw3fjBKVSnhwJJhYh6Pi5eCT&ust=15386307968070

If that picture alone isn't enough to give you nightmares, I don't know what is.

Halloweentown

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwi5v5f5xundAhUE6oMKHVmxBV8QjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.popsugar.com%2Fsmart-living%2FVisit-Real-Halloweentown-38349055&psig=AOvVaw0j_LNp_0D_0mO9-VZOM_1n&ust=1538631423430958

My personal favorite, this movie and its sequels were a Disney Channel staple around Halloween.

Scream

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwit-5aQx-ndAhVDxoMKHe_LBWMQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FScream-Face-Mask-with-Shroud-Halloween-Party-One-Size-Movie-Costume-Fancy-Dress-%2F112549628976&psig=AOvVaw2iM-j67Z4dqYyyE-QoF9rQ&ust=1538631492165499

Odds are you'll see this mask out while trick-or-treating, might as well know the story behind it.

Casper the Friendly Ghost

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjmkZKix-ndAhUK7YMKHTYDBToQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pinterest.com%2Fpin%2F420382946437817228%2F&psig=AOvVaw2Zr6IqKy4Nn5LyesBxe56R&ust=1538631530741862

A feel-good story about a friendly ghost- what more can you want from a Halloween film?

Nightmare Before Christmas

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwj9yLazx-ndAhVs_IMKHS_HCbQQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.shopdisney.com%2Fthe-nightmare-before-christmas-lunch-plates-1485433&psig=AOvVaw1ptVJtkUSWKgLJanWILn11&ust=1538631570222033

Highly contested- I know. Is it a Christmas movie or a Halloween movie? Well, I like to say por que no los dos?

It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown 

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwi4nZ_Ix-ndAhVp9YMKHfC4DbYQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=http%3A%2F%2Fgrantland.com%2Fhollywood-prospectus%2Fits-the-great-pumpkin-charlie-brown-running-diary-an-unblinking-journey-of-autumnal-despair%2F&psig=AOvVaw0RlXNo2NzhYGvbbrmIAJGI&ust=1538631612186544

This. Is. A. CLASSIC.

The Conjuring

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjQpKm_xundAhWn8YMKHZ1RAGYQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtonpost.com%2Fnews%2Fvolokh-conspiracy%2Fwp%2F2015%2F08%2F22%2Fa-warning-about-government-warnings%2F&psig=AOvVaw25XbIKTzuyl7gdWX5af2xr&ust=1538631323827513

My friend literally left the theater in tears. Watch with caution!

Twitches

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjL9Z6rxundAhVqw4MKHVgqAysQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.imdb.com%2Ftitle%2Ftt0467421%2F&psig=AOvVaw2-iFURudjMSRUxWz-qWh65&ust=1538631280909301

If the last item is too much for you, enjoy this film about the importance of sisterly love and (bonus!) magic.

Insidious 

https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjNvsqNxundAhWEzIMKHZaNDGUQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rottentomatoes.com%2Fm%2Finsidious%2F&psig=AOvVaw1pYgdAKAtgOWnkGsPECqdm&ust=1538631220960803

A great flick for the spooky time of October, when the spirit world reportedly mixes with ours.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

193626

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
