5 Halloween Activities For Those Who Hate Being Scared

One of the first things that comes to mind when thinking about Halloween is all of the scares and spooks that come from the haunted houses and creepy costumes. However, being scared isn't exactly everyone's forte and sometimes we'd much rather play it safe than have the shit scared out of us. For all of you Halloween lovers who would prefer to keep your pants unsoiled, this is for you.


1. Pumpkin Picking.

Because who doesn't love to run through fields of grass looking for that perfect pumpkin to take that perfect Instagram selfie with? Not only can you bank on getting the perfect pumpkin, but you get the perks of roasted corn, caramel apples, and petting zoos! The perfect fix in broad daylight for someone who isn't looking to freak out over zombies and clowns.

Maybe you don't like the thrill of being scared, but being lost could be right up your ally. Corn mazes are a great way to get some adventure out of the Halloween season without being completely terrified of something jumping out at you.


3. Jack-O-Lantern Festivals.

What better way to get into a modest Halloween spirit than watching thousands of creatively carved jack-o-lanterns being lit up? These little festivals really bring out the pumpkin carving spirit of Halloween, and also act as a nice way to relax with some friends and family as you see people’s beautiful work light up.


4. Costume Parties.

Who said these had to be scary? Dressing up is in my personal opinion the best part about Halloween. Maybe we’re too old to trick-or-treat, but that doesn’t mean we still can’t dress up in some elaborate or witty costume and have a good time! Sure, some people enjoy to dress up in scary costumes, but they’re usually not out to scare you! Go enjoy some pumpkin beer and put together your best look.


5. 13 Days of Halloween.

You know you love being able to sit down and get your "Halloweentown" marathon fill in. All of these classic family movies are some of the best things that come around during Halloween. Who needs "Paranormal Activity" when I can sit and enjoy singing, "This Is Halloween," with Jack Skellington? Grab your popcorn and take that seat on the couch with ABC.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
