Who doesn't love August? It's summer time, there's beach days, tanning, and endless sunsets. Then there's September, the excitement of heading back to school, moving in, and the start of football. But you can hardly dispute that October is the greatest month of year. Here are 10 reasons why:

10. Football is in full swing now.

The early games were good yea, but come on. The great games are here now. You go from maybe staying half the game because it's so dang hot, and our team is up by 26, to practically having a heart attack because the game is so entertaining and the score is so close and ahhhhhhh.

9. You don't have to change your shirt 3 times a day now.

Now that it's October the weather is FINALLY starting to cool off. You no longer have to worry about those epic sweat stains that show up after walking to every single class and re-emerge 15 times a day. Not to mention, tailgating and football games are so much better without worrying about dying from heat stroke within the first quarter.

8. These are back

7. The Clothes!!!!

October is easily the best month for fashion. You can wear pants with a tshirt without being too hot or too cold, open toe booties are finally doable, oh and 2 words...SWEATER WEATHER.

6. Starbucks and other coffee places have amazing fall flavors.

Pumpkin spice, salted caramel, caramel apple um... YES PLEASE!!!

5. The cutest date ideas were made in October

If you've got a significant other during this time of year, there should be no excuse for not going on a super cute date for the weekends in October. Pumpkin picking, apple picking, corn mazes, hiking, haunted houses. What more could you ask for?

4. All the Halloween movies your heart could desire...plus some.

Halloween movies are by far the greatest movies too. You can bet I'll watch Hocus Pocus and Halloweentown every October till I die. Not to mention the abundance of horror movies on tv at every hour of the day.

3. So. Much. Candy.

October = Halloween = Candy. The one month of the year where that secret stash of "fun size" candy bars you've got in your dorm doesn't seem so out of place.

2. Beautiful Scenery!

The leaves are changing to the beautiful oranges and reds that come with the month of October which makes walking to class and just being outdoors so mesmerizing.

1. HALLOWEEN

The best holiday of the year, I'll argue with anyone. This holiday has all the fun of regular parties, plus costumes...what more could you want?? Even though 99% of the people at the party will be dressed exactly the same ( this year we're expecting 99% Harley Quinn), you can bet everyone's got their own spin on it.
