Halloween As A College Student

A mix of trying to enjoy candy, but also having adult responsibilities, what a fun time!

1. It's Oct. 1, aka Halloween 1st!

This is, of course, just an excuse to just eat candy for a month straight.

2. SO. MUCH. DECORATING.

Yes, Target, I'm looking at you and your amazing $1 stuff near the entrance. I didn't actually go into Target to get this but I'm so glad I found fake spider web and ghost door hangers!

3. All of the pumpkin spice!

Dunkin will fulfill your needs! Embrace your inner white girl!

4. Forget about homework, it's the 13 Nights of Halloween!

Cause when else can you see "Hocus Pocus" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas"?! On the Internet? Psh, I don't think so. The commercials really make the movie experience.

5. I want to get the coolest costume ever.

I mean, you only have like $10, but you'll think of something. Why don't you try one of those DIY-costumes you saw on Buzzfeed yesterday?

6. Eh, this will have to do.

I'm a mouse...right? No, not really.

7. And no, you can't trick or treat.

Gone were the days that you could beg for candy at doorsteps. Just go have fun at a party, you can always buy candy.

8. FINALLY Nov. 1, aka all candy on sale day!


You may go overboard but hey, you're SAVING money! Plus, now you'll have enough until winter!

It's hard to celebrate Halloween as a college student but we always find a way to make it unique!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
