The Fly on Mike Pence's Head

1. The only productive thing to come out of the presidential debates: the iconic fly that landed on Mike Pence's head. For this costume, dress in all black and buy a pair of bug-eyed glasses and a pair of insect wings.

Tiger King

2. I know it seems like years ago, but it was just in April that everyone and their mother was watching Tiger King. For this costume, you could make it a group costume and dress up as Joe Exotic, Carol Baskin, and a cute cuddly tiger. Or, just pick your favorite character!

Dr. Fauci

3. The Covid King himself, Dr. Fauci. For this costume, all you need is a lab coat, surgical mask, and "Fauci" nametag! You can dress it up or down depending on what you wear (or don't wear!) under the lab coat!

AOC

4. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is one of our only saving graces this year, and has even been referred to as Gen-Z's spokesperson. She is everything that the progessive, change-oriented members of Gen-Z look for in a leader: she's strong, confidently, smart, and a total badass. For this costume, straighten your hair in a middle part, rock a bold red lip, and wear a pantsuit to achieve the iconic AOC look.

Covid-19 Itself

5. Yup, we're going there. This costume is going to involve a bit of DIY-ing. You're going to need a white T-shirt and glue sparkly pom-poms all over it. This will give you the distinctive spiky germ look.

6. Throwing it back again to the thick of quarantine, when everyone decided to make their own sourdough starter (does anyone still have theirs, by the way?). Throw on an apron and a chef hat and buy (or make!) a sourdough loaf to pose with. Bonus points for this costume because it's an excuse to eat yummy bread!

7. I'm sure everyone has seen the viral tiktok of user @doggface208 skating down the freeway with the bottle of Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice and jamming to Fleetwood Mac. In order to capture these much needed vibes, throw on a white tee shirt, and grab a bottle of cranberry juice and a skateboard. Maximum vibes if you carry around a speaker playing Dreams by Fleetwood Mac!

8. The Watermelon Sugar music video features Harry wearing an orange and green sweater vest and big blue-lense sunglasses. Add some beaded necklaces and grab a juicy watermelon as well to achieve Harry's iconic look!

9. If you're looking for a temporary escape from 2020, dress up as a different decade! My personal go-to is throwing on my old Juicy Couture tracksuit and channelling my inner 2000's diva.

10. Of course, it wouldn't be Halloween without your basic costumes. In this category can find the devil/angel combo, a witch, a mouse (duh!), a vampire, and other costumes along those lines. While they're common, it's easy to put your own spin on it and make it unique and super cute!

Whatever your Halloween plans may be, remember to stay safe and have fun!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
