9 DIY Halloween Costume Ideas You Must Try
E News

Now that Halloween is here, most of us are stoked to show off our costumes. But if you're anything like me, you procrastinated until the very last second to find a costume. Others, the other hand, still don't have one. If you are one of those people, have no fear. Here are 10 fun ideas for super easy, DIY costumes.

1. Deviled Eggs

To fry this costume up fast, all you need is a devil headband from when you were a devil for Halloween (who wasn't?) and a solid white shirt. Cut out a piece of yellow construction paper and you're well done.

2. Cereal Killer

For this costume, just cut up cereal boxes and smear strawberry syrup on a fake knife. You'll hear a "snap, crackle, pop" in no time.

3. Mac N Cheese

As cheesy as this costume sounds, it's fairly simple. Paint some toilet paper rolls yellow and cover a laundry basket with poster board.


4. Donald Trump

If you want to "Make America Great Again", put on a blazer over a shirt and tie, and apply orange-tinted foundation.


5. Big Kid

A lazy person's dream. Roll out of bed in your pajamas, put your hair in pigtails, put on your fuzzy slippers, and grab your teddy bear.

6.Mummy

Dress in all white, wrap toilet paper around yourself, and add ketchup or red food coloring. Bonus points if you can remain silent.


7. Orbit Girl

Wear an all-white suit, tie a blue ribbon around your neck, and attach an Orbit logo to your shirt.


8. Ghost

An oldie but goodie, all you need is a white sheet. Cut out holes for your eyes and mouth. Take it to the next level by applying blush and lipstick to the sheet.

9. Error Code

If you're still having problems figuring out what you want to be, just write "Error 404-Costume Not Found" on a white t-shirt.

I hope these suggestions help, though worst-case-scenario, you can scare everyone by just being yourself. Anything you do will be spooktacular. Have a happy and safe Halloween, everyone!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
