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!

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
