It's no secret that October is one of the most thrilling months of the year! It is representative of the autumnal change. It brings with it cooler weather, prettier scenery, and an overall sense of adventure! This month will go by quickly, so be sure to appreciate it for all of its treats, despite the tricks. In order to remind you of the gift that is October, here are just a few of the great things this new month brings:
1. Jack-O-Lanterns
Not only do you get to carve a pumpkin and turn it into a work of art, you also get a prop for the perfect photo-op!
2. Scented Candles
This month brings about glorious candle scents like "waffle pumpkin" and "caramel cinnamon roll"...basically everything smells like a bakery now sans actual kitchen labor.
3. Costumes
Don't tell me you don't spend practically the whole month planning puns that are costume contest worthy.
4. Spooky Decorations
Spider webs, fake skeletons, what's not to love?
5. Haunted Hayrides/House
At first you may wonder why you paid to get scared, but the adrenaline kicks in and you realize it was so worth it.
6. Scary Movies
Maybe we're all just a little bit masochistic, but scary movies are a blessing.
7. Pumpkin Spice Everything
The jury may be out on the actual taste, but it's far too festive not to love!
8. Practical Jokes
There are only so many times in the year you can justify scaring the life out of your friends, so take advantage now!
9. Halloween Parties
The perfect time to get a little spooky.
10. Fall Clothing
It's like October rolls around and everybody just looks ten times better.
11. Halloween
Halloween is like the icing on top of the October themed cake! It is not just another boring, old day. It's the reward we get for making it through the whole month and making the best of it!
