10 Last Minute Halloween Costumes
Plus Quotes

Halloween is just around the corner! So if you haven't picked a costume yet, you're probably freaking out right about now. Well, don't panic! I have some great suggestions for quick, easy last-minute costumes that will have your friends saying: "What?"

1. Sexy Newt

This is, unfortunately, the only sfw rendition I could find, but picture this as your Halloween costume. Great, right?!

2. A Pile of Grass Clippings

What says Halloween better than a classic clump of dead grass? And what an easy last-minute costume to make! Just find your local gardener and make him help glue some leftover clippings to your body. If the gardener does not comply, get your friend Tony to come talk to him. He knows some people. Easy as can be!

3. Our 12th President Zachary Taylor

Although Taylor is one of the least remembered presidents, you'll be keeping with the hip new trend of bringing dead politicians into pop culture. Maybe Lin Manuel Miranda will turn this one into a musical too--starring you in a white collared shirt looking vaguely uneasy into camera. (Maybe people would remember him if he just smiled a little more, am I right ladies?)

4. A Mole

It's your choice: either a mole a la Cindy Crawford, or the animal that looks like a bear who recently got french tips. Either way, your friends will absolutely love your creativity!

5. An Exact Replica of a Human Lung But 3.4 Times Bigger

You'll impress all your friends by showing off your science skills. All you have to do is apply to be a medical student, get accepted into a good program (maybe not your first, but, hey, it's still decent), study the human lung for years, copy its dimensions (times 3.4) exactly into a 3D printer, and--voila!--you have a perfect last minute costume.

6. Sea Cucumber

All you need for this costume is some tube feet, a nice hat, and a fish to live in your butt! That's almost too easy.

7. A Bean Burrito

This one's quick and easy: find a giant tortilla and wrap yourself up in it. Inside the tortilla, pour a lukewarm can of beans you found lying around in your kitchen and maybe some old lettuce in the back of the fridge. Top it all off with some chunky salsa and you've got yourself a costume my friend!

8. A Yellow Starburst

Poor, neglected yellow starburst. Always uninvited to the party. Definitely go around to everyone that night and make them feel bad about trying to ignore you. That'll help make Halloween special. And it'll make Michelle love you again. Win-win.

9. ZORGATRON 3000

Wear this easy-to-make costume if you really want to go for that fun, flirty look that tells all the boys: ZORGATRON 3000 WANTS TO TAKE OVER EARTH. DEATH AND DESTRUCTION IS NIGH. LOOK INTO ZORGATRON 3000's GLOWING RED EYES. YOU KNOW ZORGATRON HAS SEEN SOME STUFF. AND YET NONE OF IT IS AS BAD AS YOU TRYING TO PICK UP WOMEN. YOU SUCK.

and finally, your favorite and mine:

10. A Member of the Gospel Choir from The Great American Bible Challenge

Pick your favorite! There's so many to choose from! And what a variety of costume choices!


Happy Halloween everyone! Good luck finding that perfect last minute costume! :)

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

WP content

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
