I hate feeling like I'm wearing a sweater made out of water vapor every time I walk outside of the house. I'm serious. I can't remember the last time that I walked outside and didn't immediately start sweating... profusely. That is until today. 77 and breezy. I never thought that I'd see this day. A day where I couldn't fry an egg on the asphalt roads adjacent to my house or not have take three showers in one day as a result of excessive sweat. Getting to the real point; this "drastic" dip in temperature has my mind soaring ahead in time to daily pumpkin spice lattes, apple picking, football season, and bonfire scented candles, otherwise known as everyone's favorite season, Fall.

So, why is my random stream of consciousness that reminded me of Fall relevant you say? I'll explain the thought process with how I got to this article. After celebrating the seemingly large drop in temperature and with sorority recruitment over, I noticed that my fair share of dressing up for certain theme parties is in the near future. It's just that time of year again. With that being said, I need a readily available list of killer costumes that are sure to catch the attention of everyone as soon as I walk in. I'm talking straight head turners. Maximum Instagram likes. The pictures you hang proudly on the wall in your room of you and your friends dressed up in these outfits. That gave me inspiration for creating a list of costumes that are 100% guaranteed to win the best dressed award. An added plus is that the recent drop in temperature also made me think of fall, which also made me think of Halloween. And who doesn't love a good excuse to dress up, am I right? Without forcing you to read any farther into my personal account of what it's like to be inside of my head for thirty seconds, I present to you my list of the three best killer costumes.

1. Beanie Baby

This one's for all of you people who want a great costume with ease. Grab a pair of animal ears. Cut out a heart and wear it around your neck, and ta-daaa! You have now transformed yourself into one of the once heavily coveted and collected animals stuffed with beanies. This option is also great because it can be modified for groups.


2. Spice Girl(s)


This option also works well for the group modification. This look can easily be accomplished by taking a poster sign decorated with your spice of choosing and attaching string so that you can wear it around your neck. Disappointed that this costume wasn't a how-to guide on how to make yourself look like Victoria Beckham's twin? That's right, you're not upset at all because dressing up as garlic salt is way cooler.


3. Harambe (and a small child)



Third and my personal favorite, Harambe. *Disclaimer* This costume (or article for that matter) is not meant to be offensive or insensitive in any way for the record, but I did save the best for last. Personally, I love Harambe. I want Harambe themed everything.

So, why not grab a friend and go as a famous duo? Just food for thought.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
