Last Minute Halloween Costumes

Making Halloween easier, one costume at a time

Last Minute Halloween Costumes
Twitter

Halloween is the one time a year when you can be anything you want, but costumes can be expensive if you're not careful. If you aren't looking to spend a fortune on a costume that you'll wear one time, and you're a last minute person (like me), you've come to the right place.


Pop Art Cartoon

This first costume is probably one of the easiest in terms of finding the costume. Since you can wear anything with this, you don't exactly need to go out and find a specific costume. All you really need to do for this is line the shadows of your face with black eyeliner, red lipstick, and put white circles all over your face. After that, you can add tears for details.

Sims Character

This is the easiest costume of them all. For this, all you need to do is cut out a diamond and glue it to a headband and dress as normal.

Brawny Man

For this costume, you will need to wear a red flannel and jeans. For best results, carry a roll of Brawny paper towels around with you.

Girl Scout

This costume may take a little extra effort, but it's worth it! You will need a nude or green skirt, which you can find for a few dollars anywhere, and a white t-shirt. For the proper look, you can buy a sash at a party store and sew on patches, or you can find a green fabric at Walmart and find patches for a few cents each!

Scarecrow

For this look, wear your favorite flannel and paint stitches on your face using eyeliner or a washable marker. For added detail, sick hay in your sleeves and collar.

Jack and Jill

Wear denim and name tags for this costume. If you really want to sell it, use makeup to paint on bruises!

Devil

crushappy.com

Grab all the red from your closet and buy a pair of devil horns for this costume!

If all else fails, be a cat!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
