Halloween Costume Guide 2016

I can already imagine the drinking games I am going to form this Halloween...

"Take a shot for every Harley Quinn costume," "Shotgun a beer for every girl who is scandal clothed and is wearing some form of animal ears." Hello, Mean Girls.

Don't show up at a party dressed exactly like 15 other girls, and automatically get judged for being basic. I saved you the hassle and combed through Pinterest to find some of the simplest-but-still unique costumes for 2016.

#1- Its Raining Cats & Dogs

I know this is shown as a child's costume, but honestly? I would 10/10 dress as this as a 21-year-old. DIY-ing this punny getup would be as simple as glueing some stuffed animals on an umbrella.


#2: Spongebob Action

I still watch SpongeBob to this day, so there really is no better best friends costume than Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, (other than being SpongeBob and Patrick, obvi).



#3 SOA

I have to throw in at least one couples costume in hopes my boyfriend will read this and actually dress as a couple this year (fingers crossed). What better way to show your favorite tv show some love while looking like a couple of bad-ass MC babes.


#4 Bobs Burgers

If Louise isn't your spirit animal, we cannot be friends. This costume is simple and easily recognizable. The best part, you can throw this look together in under ten minutes. Score.


#5 Brr

I love this Halloween look because it's simple, cute, and classy. This is a costume your mother and grandma would approve of, while still looking scrumptious.



#6 Tooth Fairy

Yes. This is 100% me. This costume is for the girls (or boys) who want to put some effort into their getup. The toothbrush crown? Slay.



#7 Pinup Barbie

Speaking of slaying....this pinup, retro Barbie look is giving me life. If you're a makeup genius, this is the look for you. Sexy and classic.



#8 Clueless

Nothing says Halloween quite like Cher...and not the singer. Plus, any guy who doesn't know who you are is too young for you and you just saved yourself. #yourewelcome



#9 Magical AF

This costume is for the girls who live to experiment with makeup and kill it every time. Nothing says "untouchable" like a fucking unicorn. The hair, the makeup, the body makeup, the wings, everything. Goals.


Love,

-A

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
