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!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
