Halloween is meant to be a fun time for all the kids around the block, but that can also apply to adults around as well. For most people it is an amazing opportunity to get to walk around, as any character or whatever you wanted and get free candy, but for myself, it was never like that. Growing up all the neighbors on my block would jump for joy, due to Halloween finally making it’s way to us, but for myself it was the worst thing in the world. From the age of three on, I have had an enormous fear of clowns, and still to this day have never been to a circus. Unfortunately, as a kid seeing a bunch of teenagers dressed up as the “It” clown, wasn’t exactly my cup of tea. Not only did that play a large role on my dislike for Halloween, but the disrespect that elders and others get from kids. Everyone comprehends that kids can be jerks sometimes, but it’s a whole other issue when kids are egging the elderly’s homes, and or stealing buckets of candy. A word that defines these kids are, disrespectful, and selfish. How would one feel if their house was egged, or their grandmother’s house was egged? It’s not a nice act, and unfair for those trying to enjoy their Halloween. Another disliked aspect of Halloween is those who take the whole entire bowl of candy, so by the time you get to that persons home, you're left with nothing, but blisters on your feet. Looking for a costume was always fun, until everything you liked was either way too big, or way too small. Not only was the size the issue, but as a young girl starts to mature there’s other things like finding a non sexy costume, and so forth that can start some fires breaking lose.Another painful negative coming out of Halloween is having to hear the doorbell ring every two seconds, which can be tiresome for not just you but, our pet swell if you have one that is. So, as much is there is a lot of hate going towards this article, there is also the fact that you may meet other people your age trick or treating, and or make friends. Other things that are great about Trick or treating is getting a bunch of candy that you hadn't paid for, but watch out because it can be very toxic, so don't trust everyone. Another positive outcome of Halloween is getting to go to a bunch of parties, if it's a school party, a friends party, or your party, there is definitely at least one party you were invited to, which you may or may not be attending. Lastly, you get the option of having a blast as well, so maybe just ignore the negatives and make the best of Halloween. Have a Happy Halloween!!!

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.
