Hello, citizens of Halloweentown. It's the best day of the year, and it's time to get spooky because it's HALLOWEEN!

It also just so happens to be a Monday...

But, don't worry. Even if you haven't yet gotten into costume because you've got the Monday blues, or you just think that since you have to go to school/work that you shouldn't dress up, I've got you covered! Here are a few really quick and really easy costumes made of things you probably already have lying around!

1. Burglar

All you need for this one is a striped shirt, black pants, a mask, and a moneybag, which can easily just be a brown paper bag with a dollar sign on it. Easy peasy.

2. Regina George

I did this one last year myself! All you need is a purple bra, white tank top, and black skirt. I think this one only cost me about $2 to make.

3. Jim and Pam

Shoutout to the best couple in television history! For Jim, all you need is a basic button dow, dockers, and comfy shoes. Don't forget the tie! Pam is just as easy. Just switch the dockers for a skirt and be sure to clip your hair back.

4. Shadow

Black morph suit. That's all you need. If you want to get innovative like this one, get a little hat and a feather and be Peter Pan's shadow!

5. Flanders

Be the best diddly-dang guy at the party in this one! All you need are dockers, a pink button-down, and a forest green pullover.

6. Risky Business

Channel your inner Tom Cruise with a white button down, boxers, socks, and ray bans.

7. Cosmo & Wanda


Similar to Jim, for Cosmo, all you need is the button down, tie and pants. Wanda needs a neon yellow top and black bottoms. Pink and green hairspray is around $1, and you can make the crowns and wands!

BONUS: if you're a squad of 3, get your third person a pink top, jeans, and a pink hat. They can be your Timmy!

8. The Belchers

Be everyone's favorite offbeat family wth your squad! Chances are you have a lot of the basic pieces they wear lying around, or you can pick them up from any basics section of any store. Burger suit and megaphone not included.

9. Rosie The Riveter

Take a little inspo from Yonce! This one is simple: denim top, jeans, and a red bandana. Then show of your guns in the name of women's empowerment!

10. An Emoji


This one is also pretty easy. Pick your favorite, and then see what basics you have lying around to make it come to life!

AI music threatens creativity

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.
