What You Miss Most About Halloween As A Kid

As a kid, all of the holidays were so much more about the fun and not the work that we all know now. Yes, every kids dream is Christmas Day, but I think followed close behind it was Halloween. Whether it was choosing between which party to go to, or having a cozy, scary movie night in, we can all agree we miss all of the festivities we did as a kid.

1. School parties & Halloween Walks

Free candy and apple cider donuts, what more could you ask for? You can't forget getting to show off your costume during the parade around your elementary school!

2. Trick-or-Treating, Duh!

The unforgettable event of getting the gang together to around to the neighborhood that gave out the best candy, yes even in the multiple layers of clothing!

3. Swapping candy

The only thing better than going to get all of the candy was sorting through it all at the end of the night and swapping with your siblings!

4. Getting to stay up later to watch scary movies

You can't forget one of the few nights of the year your parents would let you stay up later than your bedtime just to watch Disney Channel's showing of Halloween Town.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
