Likes and Dislikes of the Halloween Holiday.

So it's October...and with October comes Halloween. I love Halloween, not only do you get free candy, (despite the frowning neighbors when they have to give you the, "aren't you a little to old for this?'' speech) but this haunted night is basically the only night that allows you to do anything you wish (besides the last day of summer (: ). People get to dress up in whatever they want and cause some chaos. Heck, i could go streaking down the street and people would yell, "Hey! Where'd you get that costume? It looks so real!!!"
 However, despite the amount of freedom and wholesome fun Halloween offers, there are some activities that make my neck hairs bristle (yes, i really did say neck hair)
These consist of:
Scary Movies
Haunted Houses
Spiders (this last one isn't really an activity, but it makes my neck hairs bristle anyway...)

I will now take the time to admit that I am a wimp. A softy. A coward. A scaredy-cat.
There. I said it.
I detest the thought of watching scary movies or entering a haunted whatever-they-can-think-of-these-days.
And if you think about it, these activities, really are stupid to do.
Who pays twenty dollars to go to a forest where they pay underage teens to hold a chainsaw and point it at you? A lot of people.
Who wastes eight dollars to watch scary images for two hours? According to statistics, a lot of people. (i'm just joking about the statistics part, i typed it into google and the first thing i got was a paranormal activity III trailer. oh the horror!)

But back to the main point. Wasting time and money on these trivial commodities is stupid.
But also addicting.
I watched the movie "The Sixth Sense" with my a bunch of friends and guess what! I couldn't keep my eyes off the screen! I had to watch every excruciatingly twisted second and now i won't be able to sleep tonight (thank you sierra!!!)
And when my friends persuade me to go to the Haunted Forest, i guess it will be worth the money to cuddle with the cute guy i've been wanting to talk for weeks on end.
