5 Things You Must Do This October

October is the best month to do fun activities with friends before the cold attacks and you’re too lazy to go out. This season the weather begins to cool down, the leaves change colors and the choices of places to go to and things to do are endless. Most significantly, it's the month for Halloween!

1. Watch Scary Movies

Whether they are the old-fashioned Halloween movies such as "Hocus Pocus" or more contemporary like "Insidious," scary movies are a must during this month. Stay in with your friends on a chilly night and binge watch marathons of scary movies. They are the best.

2. Go Apple Picking

The fall weather is perfect to go apple picking. It’s usually warm during the day and it gets cooler at night time, therefore, enjoy a good day with your friends and go to a nearby farm and pick some yummy apples.

3. Go to a Haunted Attraction

It doesn’t necessarily mean you have to go to a real haunted house, but if you like the thrill of being scared, a haunted attraction or hayride is definitely a place where you should go during this month. The spookiness will have you screaming but it will also be a lot of fun.

4. Carve a Pumpkin

Pumpkins are a symbol that Halloween is arriving. Grab your friends and go to a nearby Pumpkin farm, pick pumpkins and get creative. They are also a great way to decorate your house by giving it a spooky feeling.

5. Go to Halloween Parties

Halloween parties are a must, and I repeat, a must. Dressing up as different characters is entertaining and amusing. Plan ahead with your friends what costumes you plan on creating or achieving and go to a spooky party.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
