My Top 10 Halloween Movies

My all-time favorite movies for my all-time favorite holiday!

Halloween has to be one of my favorite holidays. The candy, the fact that it is in my favorite season (Fall), dressing up in costumes, and of course, the movies. Halloween movies are some of the funniest, most creative films out there, and here are my top 10.

1. Halloween Town

If you don't like Halloween Town there is SERIOUSLY something wrong with you. Not only is the idea of it super original, but its just a great movie for the holiday. Witches and monsters and everything good about Halloween combined into one film.

2. Scary Godmother: Halloween Spooktacular

Scary Godmother is my favorite animated Halloween film. Of course we've all heard about Fairy Godmothers, like Cinderella's, but to have a Scary Godmother is probably a Halloween lovers dream! Where can I find mine?

3. Twitches

Twitches? Twin? Witches. TWITCHES. Tia and Tamera Mowry are the perfect duo for this film, and they knock it out of the park. The two join forces to defeat darkness and help their families. Who doesn't love darkness-fighting, strong, female movie leads?

4. Halloween Town High

Right before the dramatic actor change for the main character Marnie for the next movie, this is, in my opinion, the last great Halloween Town movie. It's the third in a fantastic line of movies, and a definite must see.

5. The Nightmare Before Christmas

There is the age old debate of when you're supposed to watch The Nightmare Before Christmas. Is it a Halloween movie or a Christmas movie? The answer is simple: Sandy Clause might have a large role in the movies plot, but the Pumpkin King is the star. Halloween is the way to go.

6. The Haunting Hour: Don't Think About It

A Disney original movie, and another personal favorite. Emily Osment is the main character in this movie, but she's not the normal, peppy girl we remember from Hannah Montana. She takes on a different role in this scary/spoopy Halloween movie!

7. Pooh's Heffalump Halloween Movie

This honestly gave me nightmares when I was little, but the songs in it are so catchy its hard not to like, especially when it stars everyone's favorite, honey-loving bear, POOH!

8. Freddy VS. Jason

Okay, now unlike all the other movies listed above, this is an actual scary movie, and not specifically for Halloween. However, a scary movie is a Halloween movie to me, so that's why Freddy Kruegar and Jason make the Top 10.

9. Mom's Got A Date With A Vampire

An oldie but a goodie. The kids in this movie set their mom up with a complete stranger in order to sneak out of the house. But who knew that this stranger was actually a vampire? Check it out!

10. Casper

A complete classic. The movie about the world's friendliest ghost is definitely one of my all time favorite movies, not just in my top 10 favorite Halloween movies.

I suggest that if you haven't seen all of these movies, you pop a bowl of popcorn or grab a candy apple and sit down for a great Halloween movie!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
