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

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
