6 Basic Halloween Costumes

Halloween is always my favorite time of the year. As a girl, finding a Halloween costume that is not "basic" is always a difficult task. Every year we stress about something unique to be, but in reality, there will be 10 other people with our same costume. I'm sure this Halloween you will see some of these basic costumes:

1. Any costume that has animal ears.

You already know that this Halloween 50% of girls are going to be wearing either cat, mouse, or bunny ears. I am guilty of doing this too because it's so easy to put together.

2. The Risky Business costume.

You will see a ton of girls wearing an over-sized button down shirts, that was borrowed from a guy friend. She will probably pair this with knee high socks and a backwards hat to add to the basic-ness of the costume.

3. A girl in an over-sized Jersey, face paint, and knee high socks.

This is another basic costume where a girl will usually steal a jersey from a guy to either wear as a dress or tie up in the back. You also can't forget about the knee high socks with the face paint!

4. Squad Superhero Costumes.

This squad costume is one of my favorites out of the 6 that I am definitely guilty of. The superhero corsets always make appearances on Halloween since it's great for a group of friends to do a costume together.

5. A sexy ________ (cop, nurse, etc.).

This is another popular one among College kids. Any costume you can imagine can be turned into a "sexy costume" in College. The popular ones are a cop, nurse, witch, cowgirl, and even firefighter.

6. Angel and Devil.

This is another basic costume that is guaranteed to be worn by two best friends. This one is so easy because you just need the two headpieces along with two solid colored outfits.

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.

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.
