With Halloween creeping up on us, it is time to start thinking about what you, your friends, and family are going to be this year! Here are 2017's most popular costume ideas.

1) Wonder Woman

With the new Wonder Woman film that came out, this super woman is going to be a big costume choice!

2) Annabelle

This is a good choice for you & your child! You or your daughter can dress up in a nightgown, put your hair intro pigtail braids, and put some ghoul-like face paint on and red lipstick and you're ready to go!

3) Baywatch

You can twist this idea lots of different ways. If you want, you can dress up as just a life guard OR you could try to play off being one of the specific characters like Dwayne Johnson or Zac Efron.

4) Justice League

This is a good group costume idea or you could choose one member of the league to be an individual costume!


5) A Mummy

With the Mummy movie that came out this past year, this costume idea would be a great choice! Plus, it's easy enough to pull off.

6) A Pirate

The newest Pirates of the Caribbean movie gave me this idea. It's a great idea because you can be a specific cast member from the movie, or you can just be a pirate!

7) Captain Underpants

This ones geared more towards men, because you can't wear a shirt! With the updated movie that came out, this would be a favorite at any halloween event, and would get you lots of laughs. Plus, it's so simple! A cheap pair of tighty whities and a red cape around your neck and you're good to go!

8) IT (Pennywise)

The updated movie came out very recently, and it has been a huge hit! If you're going for a scary/creepy costume look this year, this is perfect! Not only can you dress up as a creepy clown, but you can also wear a yellow coat and carry a red balloon around all night!

9) Hawaiian Girl / Moana

I'm 19 years old and with absolutely no shame whatsoever I can say that Moana is one of my favorite movies so far. It is well written, the music is so catchy, and it is one of the first disney movies that doesn't make the female protagonist out to be helpless, or a damsel in distress. Moana is fierce, and brave and travels the open seas on her own.

10) Donald Trump

The latest president's are always a good costume choice. Party stores and costume stores usually carry masks of their faces too.

11) Eleven from Stranger Things

This ones pretty easy to recreate and with Season 2 airing on October 27th (you're welcome for letting you know) it will be the talk of the town!! Just wear a cute pink dress, a jean jacket, shave your head (lol okay this one's a little harder to recreate!), and put a little fake blood under your nose to mimic her infamous nose bleeds!


12) Daenerys Targaryen

Game of Thrones has become such a popular show, and Daenerys has become a rising star due to her amazing role in GOT, and her undeniable beauty. She has many outfits and style you could mimic!

13) Jon Snow

Also a GOT legend, Jon is a 'hero' and definitely going to get you lots of ladies on halloween night! You can also pair Daenerys and Jon as a couples costume, or just a guy and girl friend costume!

14) Twisty the Clown (American Horror Story)

Another show that is HOT right now is American Horror Story. Now this is another very creepy clown costume, but it will catch the attention of everybody, especially AHS fans.

15) Bob's Burgers

A popular cartoon show that I hear a lot of people raving over, this would be a hilarious costume! Plus: you can do it as a family!

16) A White Walker

Okay, this is a really ugly costume. Even though I am bias and will say that this is the ugliest costume ever (boo white walkers!!!) it will strike conversation with GOT fans, and it is definitely something you can twist into a one of a kind costume!

17) AHS: Asylum Nun

This would be a fairly easy costume to recreate, just wear all white, a white nuns dressing, white face paint and black painted tears coming from your eyes and you're good to go.

18) A Pineapple

For some reason, the pineapple has become super popular. People are getting tattoos of pineapples, they are printed on clothing more now, and other items as well. I mean, it's a super cute and quirky fruit so why not!? (Click the picture to be directed to DIY pineapple costumes!)

19) A Snapchat Filter

There are endless filters you can choose from, seriously. I can't name all of them but you can do puppy dog, flower crowns, bunnies, cats, rainbow throwup, etc.

20) A Unicorn!

There's an endless amount of ways you could make this idea your own, but what it will ALWAYS be no matter how you spin it is CUTE!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
