When the month of October rolls around, people usually think Halloween, costumes and candy. While that is an everyday thought for all collegiettes (okay, minus Halloween and the costumes…), we also know that the month of October signifies so much more. With every Starbucks announcement and new costume arrival that warms our pumpkin-shaped hearts, we are giving the top reasons why October is the month that keeps on giving.
1. It’s the one of the last months before winter.
Snowbanks, snowmen and snowcones, oh my!
