Spooky Halloween Tag 2016

Happy Halloween!.. almost!
As tomorrow is Halloween, I thought it was fitting to do a Halloween themed tag!  :)  Here is the blog where I received these questions! 
I hope you all have had a good weekend and day tomorrow!  Stay safe and have a spooktacular time!
-Rachel ♡

1. Favourite horror or Halloween-themed song?
Probably Monster Mash because it's a classic, even though I hate it sometimes.  :)

2. Name something you wouldn’t want to run into in a dark forest or in an abandoned building.
Either a zombie or a dead person... kind of the same thing though.  Actually, I wouldn't want to run into person with a chainsaw.  Nope... bye.. 

3. Have you ever played with a Ouija Board?
Nope!! However, I just watched Joe Weller's new YouTube video and I'm interested; but I don't think I'd do it unless I was with people I fully trusted.  

4. Favourite horror monster or villain?
I don't know.  I don't really watch scary movies.  

5. The creepiest thing that’s ever happened while you were alone?
Ok, the first thing that popped into my head for this question is something that happened in my junior year of high school.  I was home alone during the school day and I swear I wasn't alone in the house.  I heard noises and felt like someone was watching me and in my parents' bedroom.  I had my phone next to me and found something to use as a weapon, but thankfully it was nothing.  I don't know if that's creepy, but that's just what I thought of first.  

6. If you were dared to spend the night in a “haunted house”, would you do it?
I don't think so.  I'm be too nervous and scared the whole time.  I'd freak out.  

7. Are you superstitious?
No, I'm skeptical.  

8. Do you ever see figures in your peripheral vision?
Yes!  Well, I think I have.  Who knows if it was real.  :)

9. Which urban legend scares you the most?
I don't know.  

10. Do you prefer gore or thrillers?
Probably thrillers.

11. Do you believe in multiple dimensions or worlds?
Not sure. 

12. Ever made a potion of any sort?
Nope.

13. Do you get scared easily?
Yes.  Sometimes I don't even understand why I do, but I just jump easily.  Like you could tell me you're going to scare me and I'd still get scared... 

14. Have you ever played Bloody Mary?
I never personally did it, but I've said it partially in my head with my eyes open.  Doesn't count, but that fine with me because I was never messing with that when I was younger.  

15. Do you believe in demons/the devil?
Yes, I think so.  Haha.  

16. You’re home alone but you hear footsteps in your house, what do you do?
Oh my gosh, I'll grab my phone and have either 911 or my dad's number typed in and ready to dial with a knife in my other hand.  I've done this before too.  Sometimes being home alone sucks.  

17. If you got trapped in one scary movie, which would you choose?
Do I have to?  Can we count Halloween Town as a scary movie?? Haha! 

18. If you could only wear one Halloween costume for the rest of your life, what would you be?
Umm... I don't know.  That's tough.  Maybe a zombie/dead person. 

19. Would you ever go to a graveyard at night?
Probably not.  

20. In a zombie apocalypse what is your weapon of choice?
I didn't know what to say for this, so I googled some ideas and someone said a cure!! πŸ˜‚  But I think it would be really cool to have a lightsaber in a zombie apocalypse!! On a realistic note, probably a gun with an unlimited supply of bullets.  I don't know! 

21. Would you rather go to a Halloween party or go trick or treating?
Ooo... That's tough.  Maybe a Halloween party.  

22. You’re in a horror movie. Are you the final girl, the first to die, the comic relief, the skeptic, the smart one, or the killer?
I'm probably the smart one or the first to die.  I'd like to think I wouldn't die first though.  

23. Do you have to watch something happy after watching a horror movie so you can go to sleep?
Of course!!! Even if I have a bad dream, I need to keep myself awake for a bit to try to forget about it!! 

24. Whilst watching scary movies, are you the person who yells at the characters, the person with their eyes covered the whole time, or the person who falls asleep?
I'm a mix between the person who yells at the characters and the person with their eyes closed! Haha!! 

25. Are you the one who gets scared, or the one who does the scaring?
I'm definitely the one who gets scared!! 

26. Favorite scary book?
I don't think I have one.   

27. How old were you when you saw your first horror movie?
Probably some time in middle school.  I might have been 13... well at least that's what I can remember.  I'm not really one for scary movies.  

28. What was your first Halloween costume?
I think it was Minnie Mouse or a pumpkin.  Might have been Minnie.  

29. What are you going to be for Halloween this year?
Nothing.  :(  Maybe I'll try a zombie makeup tutorial from YouTube for my own entertainment! 

30. If you could have a spooky Halloween pet (black cat, owl, bat, rat, wolf), what would you pick?
Ooo, I'm in between a black cat or an owl.  An owl would be interesting.

Autumn Blues

πŸ‚ Hi. 🍁
Where I live, it rarely gets below 65 degrees and it hasn't been below 75 yet.  The leaves don't change color.  Living in an apartment means my pretty mums (flowers) die in a few days.  There are no pumpkin patches that I'm aware of.  It never gets 'cold' enough to wear cute fall/winter clothes and jackets without sweating up a storm.  And it never snows.  As a person who loves all those things and the fall/winter months, where I live is awful.  Yes, for many people it's a dream and their goal for retirement to live their lives near the beach, but those aren't my dreams.  I dream of living in 30 degree weather with tons of snow, falling leaves, snowball fights, and all the other beautiful things that come along with the fall and winter seasons that I grew up with.  

To sum it up, I miss living up north.  I've had a big feeling of homesickness come over me these past few weeks.  It's coming up on my second full year of living down south and if you couldn't tell already, I'm really missing the classic events that come with the fall and winter months.  I thought, in order to help myself feel a bit better, I would put together this blog post full of lovely photos I found on the internet that are fall related.  I'm having a big case of the 'Autumn Blues' and if you are too, then I hope this post can help you too!.. Or just give you cute fall photos to look at!

Thankfully, by the time you are reading this, I should be visiting grandparents up north and I should hopefully accomplished some fall-esque tasks I've been missing completing every year.  If I did, then look forward to some photos from my adventures up north soon!  
Have a good day!  Enjoy!
-Rachel ♡

(P.S.  Wow!  I just loaded all these photos in and looking at them is making me really happy!!) 😍

Rainy Days

Hi all!

I want to talk about rainy days!  Aren't they lovely!  Not only is it re-energizing the plants outside, but it can re-energize us.  If we aren't busy working, we can enjoy a rainy day inside to rest and regain our energy from a stressful week at work or school or just from the daily stress that life throws our way.  

I love being able to stay in on a rainy day!  My favorite part would have to be wearing the coziest outfit I can put together with some fuzzy socks and sitting down to watch a movie or a series.  If it's a cold, rainy day, then I'll for sure be sat with a cup of hot chocolate or tea and have some candles lit around the house.  That would be my ideal rainy day!

Don't you just want to have a rainy day now?!  I do! :) 
Let me know in the comments what your favorite part of a rainy day is!
Talk to you again soon!
-Rachel ♡

Vanity Planet Ultimate Skin Spa System Unboxing
