10 Reasons October is the Greatest Month of the Year

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.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
