5 Reasons Why Halloween Is My Favorite Holiday

It's the month of October and Halloween is just around the corner. Tons of people are getting ready for this spooky fun and will soon enough start decorating for Halloween. As a child, I loved dressing up for Halloween (and still do!). Here’re five reasons as to why Halloween is one of my favorite holidays to celebrate:

1. First and foremost, you get to go out with your friends (or alone, if you desire) and go door to door to get free candy.

2. There is pumpkin everything! Pumpkin latte, pumpkin carving, pumpkin spice..

3. You get to go to Halloween attractions.

4. It gives you the opportunity to bring your inner child and even spend money on creative costume ideas.

5. Last, but definitely not the least, you get to dress up however you want!

This is why I love Halloween. Not only do you get to dress up and get your favorite candies, there are also tons of fun Halloween attractions as well a limited edition drinks and food. You get to hangout with your friends, and anyone can celebrate Halloween; it's just a matter of voluntary choices. If you don't want to celebrate Halloween, you don't have to.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
