Why Halloween Is My Favorite Holiday
Wall Devil

For those of who you know me well, you know that Halloween is absolutely my favorite holiday. There are many reasons why it is the best holiday in the books, but here are just a few.


You can be whatever you want.

You want to make your dream come true of being a mermaid? Do it. Wanna be a superhero? Yep, you can be one. You can be anything you want to be and it is totally acceptable!


The decorations are the best.

Halloween decorations are hands down the best! There are pumpkins, mums, fake spider webs, strobe lights, smog machines, dry ice, fake blood, fake limbs, and so many more things that you can dress up your house with to make it look awesome!


Halloween movies are the best kind of movies.

Hocus Pocus, Halloweentown, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Beetlejuice, Halloween, Twitches, The Addams Family, The Haunted Mansion, Corpse Bride, Ghostbusters, It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, Casper.. I mean honestly, I could go on for days!


The idea of Halloween is so exciting.

Not only do you get to dress up as whatever you want, but you get to walk around your neighborhood and get candy too! Honestly, what an awesome day!


The characters associated with Halloween are the best.

Frankenstein, witches, zombies, mummies, skeletons, ghosts, goblins, werewolves, and vampires! We all know these are typical characters that we associate with Halloween, but the cool thing about it is no matter who dresses up as them, they can always be interpreted differently! Just because two people are both being witches does not mean they will both be the same witch, and that is what I love about it.


Halloween activities are the most fun activities.

Halloween time brings fun activities. There are pumpkin patches, haunted houses, fun halloween parties, and so many other things that come along with Halloween during the month of October.


Halloween music is always a must.

I mean come on, Thriller, I Put A Spell On You, Ghostbusters, Monster Mash? How can you not absolutely love all of these songs. Not to mention, I am listening to a Halloween playlist as I write this blog right now.


The eerie feeling that lurks around Halloween is intriguing to me.

I love the scary and eerie feelings that come with Halloween. The cold air and new spooky dangers create a sense of adventure and excitement for me that I absolutely love!


The fall-time atmosphere just makes everything better.

Not only is fall the best season of the year, but having Halloween, which just so happens to be my favorite holiday, in my favorite season makes it even better. The atmosphere around Halloween is pure joy. With all the decorations, costumes, music, pretty colors, and yummy scents that come along with Halloween, how could you not be in love with this holiday?

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. 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.

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.
