Stop telling me i'm to old for Halloween, because I AM NOT. I am not going to let people stop me from having fun. Why does everything have to have a age limit on it? When I was younger, people used to always tell me that you will never be too old for anything. But as you grow older people start telling you the opposite.

Who am I hurting if I go Trick or Treating? Why is it a problem if I take one piece of candy from your house, you're most likely going to have so much left over after Halloween that you are going to end up throwing it out anyways.

The stories I have heard about people slamming doors on teenagers or older people trying to Trick or Treat sickness me. The sad part is the candy is not always for the older person, what if it was for a sick kid and you slammed the door in that persons face.

Judging people for having fun, is a dumb form of judgment. No matter how old you are you should still put on a costume and live in the Halloween spirit. Just the act of a little kids seeing an older person in the Halloween spirit is going to make that child so much happier.

Sometimes you need to think before you tell someone that they are to old to do something. You can forever be a child at heart and you should not have shame in doing things that make you happy. I encourage everyone to go out and trick or treat this year without feeling embarrassed about your age.

After all age is just a number. A number should not determine something as simple as dressing up and getting candy. Please don't let your Halloween be ruined by judgmental people.

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.

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.
