9 reasons why you should love october๐ŸŽƒ

I never really thought October was so great until maybe last year when my sister got married and then I was yes October rocks! Hahaha. Seriously though, some pretty cool things occur in October, so letโ€™s get right into it shall we?

1. It marks 1+1/2 months left of the semester until it’s christmas break! (If you’re in college or “uni”)

2. It’s the perfectย excuse to watch your favorite childhood movies!
–ย Hocus Pocusย (My Ultimate Favorite)
– Tim Burtonโ€™s: A Nightmare Before Christmas
– BeetleJuice!
– Casper
HalloweenTown, HalloweenTown High (I & II) ( OMG, another one of my childhood favorites!)

3. SALES SALES SALES, EVERYWHERE! Chocolates and candy especially are on sale for like half the regular price in majority of the stores!

4. Everything you buy will be pumpkin flavored and youโ€™ll love it.
(Thank you starbucks!)

5. Itโ€™s the weather we have been waiting for! Not too hot or too cold, just right. Time to dress up in sweater, boots, stockings, tights, jackets etc & take pictures!

6. Outside looks extremely beautiful. Well it is autumn so the leaves are changing and giving outside the most beautiful view ever!

7. It’s finally the season to go Apple Picking again and also the Pumpkin Patch!ย 

8. You get to dress up in the most ridiculous costumes without being judged & Halloween craziness!

9. You get the BEST SLEEP EVERRRRR! Time to go snuggle and get cozy.

    I really do love when the seasons start changing and October is a month that makes me feel so festive. Just kicks off the festivities up until January. It’s a month you can fully get involved with too. Love the chocolate and sweet aspect of Halloween, with a good movie and a cosy blanket. You can’t go around! #commentstorm

    1. keepingupwithMJ Avatar

      Nope!! <3 My fav part is being snuggly in bed! <3

  9. wanderwomanco Avatar

    You’re so right. I love throwing a chunky knit on with some black boots but still being able to wear a skirt with it (maybe not and I’m just braving the cold haha – I live in the UK). I really want to get out and get some photos taken while the leaves are changing ๐Ÿ™‚

      Yes! Go do it! The best part <3

    I hate autumn. I miss the warmer weather and know it’s going to get colder before it gets warmer. Can’t stand pumpkin either. Roll on summer…

    1. keepingupwithMJ Avatar

      Lol, cheer up! It’s not all bad. Autumn isn’t that cold either. You can’t stand pumpkins? Well that’s your preference.

  21. abbeylouisarose Avatar

    Oh the sales, the sales! Can’t help but love ’em (and spend way too much haha!) I also love the chance to watch some childhood scary movies, they’re always fun to laugh at!

    Apart from pumpkin flavoured everything, I agree with all of these reasons. Autumn-Winter is definitely the best!
