Okay, show of hands, who decided they were too old to dress up when they hit about 10 years old? No one? Just me? Oh, okay. Well, in any case, though we as young adults are well past the trick-or-treat age, that doesn't change the fact that Halloween is still a pretty prominent day in our society. So if you find yourself dragged to a party or roped into taking your little siblings out, here are a few easy, last minute costume ideas for you.

1. An assortment of fruit.

You and a couple friends looking to go out together? Grab a couple big T-shirts, fabric paint, and some green felt and you're good to go.

2. Damian from "Mean Girls."

All it takes is a blue hoodie and some black sunglasses to create this iconic character's look.

3. Life.

Take one of those white T-shirts you have stuffed in the back of your drawer and pick up a bag of lemons on your way out. Done and done.

4. Error message.

If you don't mind the eye-rolling and "Really?" looks you'll get all night, this "costume" might be the one for you. Just grab yourself a Sharpie and white T-shirt and you're efforts will be completed.

5. Rosie the Riveter

With some bold red lips, a red bandana and a jean shirt, you'll have yourself a cute and historical costume.

6. Plank from "Ed, Edd n Eddy."

Dig that box your (unused) desk came in our of the recycle and, with the help of a few Sharpies, you have a costume any young adult will get nostalgic over.

7. Jake from State Farm and Flo from Progressive.

Just take a quick trip to Walmart for a few basic clothing pieces and you and your significant other can be the ultimate power couple.

8. A ghost.

Going with the classic look can never be frowned upon! Cut some holes in your bed sheets (or grab some dark sunglasses) and you're good for the night.

9. Ceiling fan.

Get it? This oh-so clever costume can be accomplished with a cheap crew neck sweatshirt and some iron-on letters.

And, of course.....

10. Three hole-punch Jim

Easy and recognizable, this costume is guaranteed to get you a laugh.... you know, from anyone who gets it. Some black construction paper and standard work attire will do.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
