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.

Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

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.

Brooke Davis

"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:
