OCTOBEROCTOBEROCTOBER.

I love this month. I just love it. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much! Let me tell you why >>>>>>

Reason 1: I use the weekends to dress in costume. This is because I truly believe that Halloween should not only be one day. 

I recently took the liberty of dressing up for school on an ‘own-clothes’ Wednesday. I decked myself out in Harry Potter garb – Gryffindor shirt, necklace, pin, scarf, lightning bolt earrings – the works man. I can do this because J.K. Rowling told me via Pottermore that I am brave and true of heart. I thought I was a Gryffindor before, but feared that I may have really, truly been a Ravenclaw because of my not very deep seated love for academics and logic – but it would appear that the RIGHT SIDE of my brain is larger =D I mean my heart, my heart. My heart is large.

Reason 2: Orange is one of my favorite colors. I love wearing it, looking at it, smelling it, eating it, sitting on it, smiling at it, dancing around it, and touching it. Pumpkin form, tangerine form, carrot form, I DON’T CARE – GIVE MAMA SOME ORANGE *NOMNOMNOMNOMNOM*.

Reason 3: I can finally combine orange and black. I know this is another color thing, but you KNOW it makes sense! It’s like how you can’t wear green and red or red and white or white and green or sometimes even just red all by itself without it feeling like Christmas. Or Valentines day…Green always reminds me of Valentine’s day.

Reason 4:*cheers*  C-A-N-D-Y! Everywhere I seem to spy – CANDY. This could also be a bad thing….I somehow always weigh a little more at the end of the October than the beginning…but that’s probably because of Reason 2. Too many carrots can do that, you know.

Reason 5: AWARENESS BABY! Breast Cancer, Bullying, Child Safety! People wear pink and people wear purple and peter piper picks pails of pickled peppers for great causes =D

Reason 6: What boys wear. I swear to Bob, boys are way, way, WAH-AY more creative than girls when it comes to costumes. They walk around as nightstands and fruit and foliage …. it’s beautiful. Party City actually has a whole section of ‘Funny’ costumes for boys. You know what the equivalent of that is for girls? Bugs. Bug costumes -.-

Reason 7: I got my Yamaha keyboard this week =’)

Reason 8: My baby brother is a genius. He’s five and he’s going to be the richest, most famous, most charismatic, intelligent, creative human being of my entire family. I love him. I realize this has nothing to do with the month of October.

Reason 9: MY FIRST PAY CHECK COMES NEXT WEEK. This is my first ‘official’ job. I tweet for WinceyCo. I feel so grown up 😉

Reason 10: Autumn is the best of all seasons. The wind is crisp, the sun is bright, and the leaves are red and yellow and ORANGE, and I just can’t get enough ^^ (No Fergie, that was not your cue -.-)

GO OCTOBER!

What do you love about this time? =)

Hi! My name is Ariana and I am so psyched to be a part of the MyMajors team for another year! I love the usual things - reading, writing, books, movies - travel, people, community service (Compassionate Action)! High School was a blast, and my senior year held the kind of Gold I never imagined (the self-fullfilling kind, the family kind, the National kind - you name it). I'm going to Tisch, School of the Arts at NYU this fall; my major is BFA Acting and my studio is Experimental Theater - but my interests run the gamut, so I'm sure I'll be exploring other fields of study as well! Sharing 17 with you was great - let's see what 18 has to offer - the City is calling ;)
