Are you tired of wearing the same basic, boring, costumes every Halloween? Don't wanna procrastinate until the last day and end up dressing up like a cat again? Want to stand out in the crowd and be remembered for having a great costume?

Here are 10 wacky, unique costume ideas that every college student should consider rocking this October.

1. Flo from the Progressive commercials

You'll definitely stand out at a party for dressing up as an absolute ICON.

2. Chick Magnet

This pun will definitely make everybody chuckle!

3. Triceratops

This costume is enormous and looks like it's pretty hard to walk in, but hey, at least you'll look dino-mite.

4. Macaroni and Cheese

Dress up as one of the most classic dorm room staples! This website gives you a tutorial on how to make the costume.

5. Moth and Lamp

This one is technically just a meme, but you and your best friend should definitely dress up as this (weird) 2018 moth and lamp meme.

6. Arthur

Another meme - this Arthur meme is a little dead by now, but the costume is still pretty original and definitely will still make you stand out among all the cats and bunnies.

7. Ramen

Another way to dress up like a snacc.

8. Asparagus

I personally haven't seen anyone touch an asparagus since coming to college, so there's a 100% chance no other college kid will think of this idea.

9. Squirrel

Nothing says scary like a giant squirrel.

10. Cat, but like an actual cat

Think the idea of being a cat for halloween is still cool, but want to stand out? Look no further!

There you have it! A couple of meme costumes, three food costumes, and a bunch of random costumes. Hopefully, these ideas gave you some inspiration for your next Halloween party!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
