How Do I Love Halloween? Let Me Count The Ways
www.i-mockery.com

The cool crisp air whistling through the trees along quiet, moonlit neighborhoods; the scenery like abstract paintings in hues of orange, yellows, and reds; the crazily comfy sweaters that wrap you like a warm hug. Yup, it’s official. Fall has arrived and it is graciously accompanied by the ever-exhilarating all Hallows Eve, and a spirit that spreads like a virus through die-hard Halloween fans everywhere.

Twisted souls from all walks of life suddenly begin to assemble frightening displays of evil-doings and massive maniacal miscreants. Immortal beings by the hundreds flood the once serene communities’ homes, roadways, and lives. Establishments everywhere host cult-like gatherings for the earthbound dead, the criminally insane, the bewitchingly beautiful, the outrageously originals to come together to worship their sacred occasion.

Yes, the moment the heat breaks and the first leaf falls, it's go time. Here are just a few of my favorites, enjoy!


1. A whole month of horror!!

Old horror, new horror, blood & guts galore. Even my favorite shows feature spooky special episodes. Yes, I spend a lot of time with the lights on and the blankets up to my eyeballs, but it's totally worth it.


2. Candy, Candy, CANDY!

It's a good thing it's sweater weather because around now I start eating candy like it's my job!


3. "Cuz this is Thriller"

Classic! Every single person in America should know it and break into dance the moment they hear it.


4. Jack-o-Lantern-ing

Who says it's not ok to have fourteen carved pumpkins scattered about your front yard?
Oh the possibilities......


5. Harvest Festivals & Hayrides


Apple Cider & Pumpkin Picking


6. Haunted attractions

The wet your pants, scare the sugar out of you, and scream like a little girl kind of fun.



7. Pumpkin Spice EVERYTHING!!

Wait......are those condoms and tampons?!?


8. Indulging my Inner Child

I don't care how old you are, dressing up for Halloween is pure awesomeness!


9. It's a Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown


10. Gorgeousness everywhere you look

11. The. Walking. Dead.

...and Daryl <3


12. Home-front Haunts

It's not hard to figure out who the Halloween freaks are and aren't.....

......and we wouldn't have it any other way!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

2926
Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
