First Halloween night in college, seems exciting right? Well here are 5 top survival guides for a halloweekend.

Have multiple costumes ready

Giphy

Halloweekend is not only known for continuous parties on halloween week, but what I learned is to never wear the same costume again. trust me. Have multiple choices and they DON'T have to be slutty.

It's okay to not wear lingerie 

Giphy

Every girl goes to college excited for this month, not because they aren't judged and controlled on what they wear but because they can be free and comfortable in their own skin. Others just use it as an excuse to dress in nothing bu dental floss and an eye patch. BUT if you do not feel comfortable wearing tight revealing clothing then thats okay. Its okay to dress sexy and not reveal so much. Be different and be unique! be comfortable in your own skin

Clubbing

Giphy

If you're trying to go clubbing on halloween, good luck. My first halloween was sent at a club. I was not feeling to well but I did my best to enjoy my time. Do not go to the club and expect to be free and alone. Expect guys hitting on you and trying to feel you up. If partying is not your scene, try going trick or treating, or dressing up for fun! nothing is wrong with that. If you do go, go with your group of friends. Dance your heart out and enjoy a night of candy and costumes!

stick with groups

Giphy

When walking around wearing revealing or sexy costumes, please go with groups. It's hard enough already to try to walk around looking like a god knows what, but being cat called is the worst. Just standing in line I got ass grabbed and it wasn't fun. Being with a group or another person you trust to get you out of bad situations or uncomfortable situations is the key to surviving halloween. Just like when you're kids, you go around in pairs and big groups. You never know what could happen.

Enjoy your night no matter what

Giphy

Avoid drama, enjoy your first college experience. There is nothing wrong with letting loose and being wild. Be safe and smart though, you don't want to end up regretting certain desicions. Happy halloween! Strike of midnight means Christmas! ;)

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.

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.
