5 Worst

1. Mini cans of Fanta

Why hand out pop on Halloween? They were clunky, got shaken up, and annoying. Also, we wanted candy on Halloween!

2. Plastic rings

The number one off about these plastic rings of death is they pinch so hard! On top of that, they're flimsy so they broke within two days after getting in reach.

3. Toothbrush/floss

Anything really need to be said about these? Yes, brushing teeth and flossing is important, but there was no way you could sell that on the number one Holiday for eating candy. Honestly, mine always ended up in the back of a drawer and never got used.

4. Raisins

Children's worst enemy since the beginning of time. Nuff said.

5. Old candy

Either gross and hard or squishy and sticky. Either way, it was never a favorite.

5 Best

1. Full size candy bars


The kings and queens of Halloween were the ones handing out full size candy bars. Always made sure to hit them up! If you weren't sure which house had them, you could always count on a friend who made pre-rounds to tell you.

2. Glowsticks

An easy way to get some light while trick or treating! Just snap, shake, and bam! There is neon hues to see and wear! Trading of colors may have happened as well!

3. Temporary tattoos

Took these skin decorators to school the next day because who didn't want to look cool with a poorly applied ghost and pumpkin on their face.

4. Sticky hands

These toys were great until they were confiscated by your teacher because you slapped your best friend in class. An alternative use for it was to pick up dirt and crumbs off the car floor!

5. Juice boxes

Bless those who gifted us with the sweet nectar of the Gods!

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.
