Time to be honest, we all have been in that Halloween time crunch where we do not know what costume we want and time is ticking away. I have been stuck in this situation almost every year since I stopped trick or treating, and I always turn to the internet to give me a helping hand. So here is a list of quick and easy Halloween costumes for those who procrastinated or plans changed at the very last minutes. Tis the season to be SPOOKY!

1. Raining Cats and Dogs


Remember all those stuffed animals you collected as a kid? Well it is about to come in handy. Nothing better than a punny, easy to create costume/

2. Saw


Different, scary, but most importantly, easy to achieve! Put your makeup skills to the test while also borrowing someones bow tie and your set.

3. Sushi

This one is for all you foodies out there. This costume is so cheesy and funny, everyone will love it. It really is so simple, just wear white and tie a pillow to your back. YUM.

4. Rosie the Riveter

I am totally guilty of pulling out this costume last minute. What is better than representing the bad ass females of the world while also having the clothing in your closet?

5. Netflix and Chill


Grab your bestie and live out your favorite saying or pun. Nothing screams 2017 then dressing up as Netflix and chill.

6. Mime


Got a black and white stripped shirt? Then you are set! There is not much to this and you could also get away with being a robber if you are feeling fancy.

7. KISS


If you are anything like me, you own a ton of black clothes. All you have to do is go crazy with black eyeliner and grab a few friends to become KISS!

8. Fruit


Forget pulling out those last minute animal ears like everyone else, do something SWEET and simple and become fruit. Easy and fun.

9. Breakfast at Tiffany's

I can not wait until I get to have this as a costume. This movie is timeless and so iconic, why would you not want to be Audrey Hepburn

10. Mean Girls


Had to save the best for last. If all else fails, grab your best hoodie and sunglasses and be one of the most iconic scenes of Means Girls. I know you want to...

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

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.
