7 Countdowns You Need In Your Calendar
A2UA

October can be a difficult month. The weather starts to chill down, there is often rain and the novelty of being back at college has worn off. Fear not, here are 11 great dates that you can put in your calendar to cheer you up!

Halloween - 27 days

AKA candy day! Any excuse to dress up goes down well for me. Whether you watch scary movies, got to a haunted forest or just a themed party it's guaranteed to be a good time!

Bonfire Night - 32 days

Bonfire night is mainly celebrated in the motherland that is England but it has become more of a common celebration in America too. A night of fireworks and yummy foods, why would you miss out?

Nacho Day- 33 days

YUM. Who doesn't love nachos? What a great excuse to hit up your favorite Mexican restaurant and forget your troubles.

Election Day - 35 days

Whether you are political or not this is a big deal! After all the debates and drinking games that go with them, it'll be interesting to finally see the outcome. Or it won't, but we can deal with that later.

Thanksgiving - 50 days

Food, glorious food! What a holiday this is. I didn't realize how much the rest of the world was missing out. Also, chances are you only have a couple more weeks until winter break!

Black Friday - 51 days

Not so wonderful for everyone but we know that there are only a few times a year you can get LuLu Lemon leggings for a steal! Get those elbows ready.

Christmas Day - 83 days

Christmas is my favorite time of the year. All the festivities, the music, the movies! Such great holiday cheer.

Sometimes the winter months can drag, but with fun events in mind, it might make those cold nights just a little more bearable!

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.
