It is that time of year again. Olive green leaves begin to molt and shed, painting the ground a sea of gold and auburn. The air becomes crisp and the day fades into dark much quicker. Fall is finally here and with the season comes a number of festivities -- Halloween. The anticipation of spooky and eerie festivities is to be awaited ever so eagerly. However, what many may not look forward to is seeing the same recycled costumes that always seem to persevere each Halloween. It is time to rid the present of the past and dispose of those Halloween costumes everyone is tired of seeing.

1. Sexy Cops

Don't want to spend money on a costume this year or looking for something simple and easy to put together, whatever the reason be, there are more creative and easy ways to find a costume that does not require the recycling of one in which people have seen one to many times. Sexy cops are just as common as seeing variations of sexy kittens roaming around town all Halloween evening. While one can simply dress up or down a sexy cop costume it all comes down to being the same spin off of a Halloween costume constantly recycled each. Find a niche if the desire to repeat this costume is to much to resists. Incorporate some spooky make up and or some fake blood.

2. Witches

While the trend of witches on Halloween has somewhat dwindle away, now and then one will spot a witch lurking on Halloween evening waiting to cast a spell and banish all those who despise the traditional Halloween ensemble. From the varying black and purple capes that drape from the necks of Halloween fanatics to the rigid witches hat the peak from their head, there’s nothing really unique to separate one from the other. It is time to hang up the hats and broom sticks and trade this tiresome looks for new ones of the present. Still hoping to remain true to the spooky, tricky and scary character that witches engulf? Channel your inner Harley from Suicide Squad, sneaky trick and manic are the witch characteristics she possesses.

3. Sexy Kitten

The most infamous, overrated and recycled Halloween costume yet -- sexy kitten. There are a number of reasons why this Halloween costume is recycled each and every Halloween. The main reason being that it is simple and easy to put together. it this costume requires is black clothing, drawn on whiskers and cat ears to transform one into a kitten for the evening. However, if the sole reason for repeating this Halloween costume each year is because it is cost-less and easy to create, there are a handful of simple and plentiful ways to create stress-free costumes. With the makeup in one’s bathroom and the clothes hung in the closet, a handful of costumes become available, options in which one would have never guessed to create. Retire the kitty ears and implement imagination. Various and creative Halloween costume options include, pop up girl costume, windup doll and Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany’s. cost-less costumes exist for those repeat costume offenders, all options in which can be just as simple to recreate as a sexy kitten costume.

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.

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.

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.
