It's that time of the year again. Spooky time.

Time for the haunted houses, corn mazes, Halloween parties and spooky movies. And the best part of it all are the Halloween costumes you get to wear to the parties. However, it also seems to the hardest part of it all. There's so many things you have to think about when it comes to choosing the PERFECT costume. Of course, it's a must to be the most creative and outstanding one there.

When it comes to making such a difficult decision, go through and answer these questions that are a MUST to ask yourself before picking out a costume.

1. How much money do you wanna spend?

It's always important to think about this when deciding on a costume. They can get pretty pricey.

2. How supplies/materials do you need?

Many people like to do DIY costumes for Halloween. If you decide to go this route, make you think about the materials you'll need beforehand. Prepare yourself ahead of time so you can have the best costume there.

3. Are you waiting until the last minute?

If you're anything like me, you probably wait until the very minute to get your costume. I've known what I wanted to do, but I wait until literally the day before the Halloween party to get what I need to create my costume.

4. How extravagant do you want to be?

This is something you always want to think about. How big and all-out for your costume do you want to go? Is it going to be creative enough?

5. How do you want to look?

I know for me, when it comes to Halloween, it's all about the makeup. I always decide my costumes based on what how cool I want my makeup to look.

6. What is going to stand out the most?

Go with your own personal creativity and style.

7. How much time do you want to spend getting ready and putting together your costume?

I mean, no one wants to spend hours getting ready, do they?

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.

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.
