10 Random Ways To Have Fun This Spooky Season Without Being Basic

4. Hide in a corn maze and scare other people.

Fall can be a wonderful time of the year if you try to enjoy the season for what it can truly be. With all those warm colors, crunchy leaves, pumpkin spiced everything, and spooky scary skeletons, fall is a season like no other. I am going to offer you a list of new ideas you can try in a completely non-sarcastic way.

1. Decorate someone else's place as a haunted house.

You should most likely ask for permission if they are complete strangers to you. Another option is to ask a relative or a close friend if you can go and decorate for them. Bring out those cobwebs and creepy witch brooms and start decorating.

2. Carve some pumpkins and leave them on random porches. 

Giphy

You can make them look super scary or super artsy, but just make sure you give them to other people. They will probably enjoy the gift more than you anyway as long as you make it totally appropriate for all crowds.

3. Take a pile of leaves and organize them by color. 

Giphy

This may sound tedious and completely pointless, but at least it will give you something to do. Once they are separated, go ahead and jump in the new piles. Make sure you get a picture of your outcome too because that is a major success.

4. Hide in a corn maze and scare other people.

Giphy

It may take a long time for someone to actually walk by, but when they do it will be totally worth it to see the look on their faces when you freak them out. Bonus points if they scream at you.

5. Whip out your famous veggie tray instead of offering candy. 

Giphy

Nothing like some good ole healthy options on Halloween. You could also substitute the vegetables for something else such as fruit if you prefer. The sky is your limit, so just go wild this spooky season.

6. Leave a note on your porch saying "take one" but have no bowl out. 

Giphy

Everyone loves a good holiday prankster. Make the sign super aesthetic and elaborate as well as big enough for people to read to want to come up to your porch. Once they get there, they will be super disappointed which could be a lot of fun.

7. Watch a horror movie first thing in the morning just to traumatize the rest of your day. 

Giphy

Start with something extremely violent and terrifying. If it can create daymares, then it is completely the right option.

8. Wear a sheet over your head for an entire day and pretend to be a ghost. 

Giphy

Just make sure you have a couple eyeholes to be able to see where you are going. This could either be a really good idea or a potentially dangerous one, so just make sure you freak people out while you can.

9. Pick a random day to give out "Best Costume" certificates to your friends. 

Giphy

Make sure it is a completely regular day where no one is wearing any sort of costumes. Pass out different certificates such as "Most Boring" or "Scariest". If none of your friends know it is coming, it will be even funnier for you.

10. Wear a costume to a costume store.

Giphy

Make sure to pretend to be deep in thought while staring at the shelves. Also make sure to wear your most obnoxious costume you own because why not be super tacky all the time.

Halloween may be just around the corner, but the fall season is just getting started. Make this spooky season one to remember full of laughter and good times.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
