As a kid, all of the holidays were so much more about the fun and not the work that we all know now. Yes, every kids dream is Christmas Day, but I think followed close behind it was Halloween. Whether it was choosing between which party to go to, or having a cozy, scary movie night in, we can all agree we miss all of the festivities we did as a kid.

1. School parties & Halloween Walks

Free candy and apple cider donuts, what more could you ask for? You can't forget getting to show off your costume during the parade around your elementary school!

2. Trick-or-Treating, Duh!

The unforgettable event of getting the gang together to around to the neighborhood that gave out the best candy, yes even in the multiple layers of clothing!

3. Swapping candy

The only thing better than going to get all of the candy was sorting through it all at the end of the night and swapping with your siblings!

4. Getting to stay up later to watch scary movies

You can't forget one of the few nights of the year your parents would let you stay up later than your bedtime just to watch Disney Channel's showing of Halloween Town.

I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
