We had an amazing Halloween weekend here at Her Campus Nottingham! We decided to get a little spooky, although I think in the end the result was more cute than scary! It’s the night that many countries dedicate to honour their dead, and others say that it’s when the separation between the living and the deceased is the smallest. Everyone has their own ideas about Halloween: whether it’s a night you eat so much that you lapse into a sugar coma; snuggle up with friends to watch scary movies; or party so hard that you wake the next morning half convinced that you actually *were* a cat the night before. This year, I spent my days leading up to Halloween carving these pumpkins (whilst chucking pulp at my unlucky helper) and watching ‘The Babadook‘ with my face hid behind a cushion for an hour. I’m happy to say that I spent the evening itself dressed as Pikachu in a tent in a field of alpacas. I hope that you too had a weird and wonderful celebration, and Her Campus wishes you a very Happy Halloween!

Nottingham

Sarah is currently a 4th year student at the University of Nottingham, studying Biochemistry and Biological Chemistry. As a photography intern for HC Nottingham, she now has an excuse for all the snaps she takes while out and about exploring the city. In addition to this, she is also a copy editor (mostly because she's one of those annoying gals who likes to correct you). In between adventures, she can often be found either: cuddled up with her two extremely fluffy labradoodle pups Sherlock and Watson; singing loudly in her student flat; reading books about bad-ass women of the past; fretting about whether her fringe is straight or trying not to burn something in the kitchen.
