After being in college for almost two months, I’ve already noticed that college is definitely on another level than high school. Although, this weekend will be my first experience of “Halloweekend,” I can already anticipate the distinct differences I will see when I go out.
1. No dress codes.
That’s right, ladies and gentlemen! No need to cover up because you know people will be flaunting what they got. I know it’s up to you to decide what you want to wear, but please remember that it’s going to be freezing outside.
2. No trick-or-treating.
Sadly, we are grown adults now (unless you're short like me and people still think you’re in middle school), which means no more going around your neighborhood and getting free candy. I guess, technically, you can still try to go around your dorms, but I wouldn’t take candy from a random college student (if you know what I mean).
3. More than one costume.
Halloweekend means going out on both Friday and Saturday night! Remember to plan two costumes, unless you want to wear the same outfit two nights in a row, which is acceptable for Halloween I guess.
4. No fancy costumes.
Ain’t nobody got time to make an awesome costume! Also, your costume will probably fall apart throughout the night, so don’t go for anything too expensive that you don’t want to lose.
5. FUN FUN FUN!
Unlike that lame high school Halloween party you went to, college Halloween parties are going to be way better. Go out, have fun, and enjoy yourself while you can! Halloween is that one time of the year you are accepted for dressing however you want.
