10 Reasons THat Halloween Is The Only Holiday That Matters

Well, everyone, it's almost time. Yes, I mean it's almost time for Halloween, one of the best times of the year. Don't get me wrong, Christmas is still my number one, and Thanksgiving is pretty lit too, but I mean, come on. Halloween is great! Here are reasons why Halloween is the best.

1. The Decorations.

Halloween decorations are some of my favorites. My favorite ones are the scary ones, but they cute ones are, well, cute too.

2. Scary Movies.

Around Halloween, scary movies start coming out in theaters, and a ton of them are added to Netflix. If you're like me, scary movies are my favorites. They're the best movies to watch on a date, or with friends!

3. CANDY.

That's the best part, right?

4. Halloweentown.

It's the greatest movie series EVER. Hands down. Even though I'm still confused why Disney cast Sara Paxton in the last movie like no one would notice she looked completely different.

5. Carving Pumpkins.

Honestly, I'm really bad at it, but it's so much fun! Something about opening up a pumpkin and pulling the "guts" out and carving a scary face into it is just so enjoyable.

6. Costumes.

You can dress, cute, scary, or funny. It's so much fun!

Also, I would just like to add that I went as a banana last year, so I'm just gonna share a photo. You're welcome.

6. Haunted Houses.

They're great. Sadly, I haven't been to one this year, but they're quite the experience.

7. Candy Corn.

I love candy corn so much, and I eat so much of it around Halloween.

8. The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Although this technically isn't a Halloween movie, it's perfect for this time of year.

9. The Dancing Pumpkin Man.

Honestly, my favorite part of the Halloween season is that the video of the dancing pumpkin man is everywhere. I relate to that guy so much. If you don't know what I'm talking about, I'll leave a video. You're very welcome.

10. Halloween Episodes from your favorite TV shows.

They're some of the best, hands down.

Well, there you go. I'm sure I could think of many more reasons why Halloween is the best, but I'll just stick to my top ten. Happy Halloween, everyone! Stay spooky!

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

StableDiffusion

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

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.
