5 Fun And Easy Crafts To Do For Halloween
Caitlin Johnston

All of the holiday seasons have many opportunities for craftiness, but Halloween is probably one of the best. Creativity is everywhere in the Halloween season! Here are some fun and easy crafts to help get you in the Halloween spirit.

1. Pumpkin Carving.

This is obviously the most traditional one. This was my absolute favorite thing as a kid growing up. Go get yourself a pumpkin, lay some newspaper down, and get the creative juices flowing! The more people, the more fun!

2. Pumpkin Painting.


Honestly, I haven't done this until about thirty minutes ago. For those who don't like the messiness of the inside of a pumpkin, I strongly suggest doing this. All you need is a pumpkin, paint, paint brushes and friends! It is the simplest way to decorate a pumpkin!

3. Costume Making.

DIY costumes are sometimes a million times better than store-bought ones. They are way more creative and way more fun than just going to the store! And chances are, you won't be wearing the same costume as anyone else!

4. Mason Jar Lanterns.


I had also never done this one until I got to college. All you need is a mason jar, stickers, and spray paint! Pick which stickers you want, put them on the mason jar, spray paint the mason jar and when it is all dry, take the stickers off! When you put a candle in it and close the lid, you will be able to see the light through the sticker shapes! Super fun and an awesome decoration!

5. Door Decorating.


Why wouldn't you want to do this? Especially in college. It is easy and loads of fun! Turn it into a contest and throw a candy prize in there and you have yourself a super fun night (and a super artsy door, too)!

Embrace the holiday season and let your inner creativity shine!!

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.

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.
