I like to say I am a fashionable person. I like to wear nice clothes, and I generally have a good time putting together an outfit. The process of picking out accessories is fun.
'Tis the season for pumpkin spice, carving pumpkins and, most importantly, Halloween movies. Today, I am here to give you my top three and bottom three movies in the classic horror genre.
'Halloween'...

Picture this: You’re at a Halloween party, and you see a person in the middle of the room standing head to toe in a glimmering silver outfit with glitter all over their face. You think, "Obviously they’re a disco ball, or maybe they’re the Tin Man from 'The Wizard of Oz.'" Wrong! Isn’t it obvious? They’re Joan of Arc — duh!

Two years ago, I found myself in the doctor’s office. The prognosis was bad. They had me lying down on a table, poking prongs and stethoscopes into my orifices like I was in a real-life game of Operation and they couldn’t get the wishbone out of my chest. I’m not a religious girl, but I prayed a lot that day.

It is well known that the “-ber” months are some of the most significant times of the year for couples. Going to pumpkin patches, watching spooky movies in matching pajamas and baking are on most couple’s bucket list as we approach the fall season.
Now, I know what you must be thinking. You read the title of this article and thought, "But isn’t Homecoming mostly for the alumni of Colorado State University? Why would we want to extend the activities to occur throughout the week?" The answer is because there are students like me who work all weekend and would like to partake in the festivities, too.

I love Halloween. It is my favorite time of the year; everything is flavored or pumpkin spice scented. Spirit Halloweens are popping up in empty stores. People have all sorts of decorations spread across the sides of houses and sprinkled across lawns. Movies my friends will only watch with me in October begin playing on loop. And the costumes — oh the costumes.

Halloween is upon us, and the festivities are ramping up. In college, Halloween takes on a new meaning, with the holiday revolving more around dressing up and partying all weekend long. College students opt to attend Halloween-themed house parties as opposed to trick-or-treating, and the sheet ghost costumes of childhood are traded in for more revealing, risqué get-ups. While these parts of the holiday are incredibly fun, they come with safety concerns that must be acknowledged.

We are constantly asked the question: “What’s your favorite holiday?” And 36% of Americans surveyed by YouGov said Christmas. It is somewhat understandable, as Christmas is supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year. Sure — Christmas has some notable qualities, but it is certainly not better than Halloween.

Most people can agree that the heat needs to hit the road, as it is time for the wind to blow through our hair as we walk to class. I am ready to wear sweaters and jeans and not collect a gallon of sweat before I make it to my first class. I am simply just waiting for those cozy fall nights. With Homecoming Weekend approaching, I know it is near.

In celebration of Colorado State University's Homecoming weekend, the CSU football team put together a special halftime show to replace the marching band’s performance.
