12 Costumes You Need To Be Before You Gradute

Lillian Gonzalez

It's mid-October and you either have a killer idea for what you're going to be for Halloween or you haven't got a clue. If you are the latter of the two, I've got your back. Here's a compilation of costumes - everything from sexy to funny - if you have no idea what you want to be this Halloween.

1. Bob Ross

Starting off our list strong, is a costume the gives tribute to a true icon. If you haven't heard of Bob Ross or listened to his soothing voice teach you how to paint some kick-ass scenery, this costume might not make too much sense, but you can at least appreciate the 'fro.

2. Anything Made Out of an Oversize Shirt

Oh the things you can do with a three-dollar Hanes t-shirt. Transform yourself into a piece of fruit, a cactus, a ghost or literally ANYTHING else.

3. Basic Movie or TV Character

There's absolutely nothing wrong with being basic this Halloween, and nothing screams basic louder than being Cher from Clueless or Rachel Green from Friends.

4. Hershey's Kiss

I don't really have much rhyme or reason behind this one, it's just super cute and creative.

5. Anything Disney

I mean this basically goes without saying.

6. Sexy Ghost

I've often heard showing less skin, leaves more to the imagination. Very sexy.

7. Britney Spears

You can go sexy or funny for this costume, and the options are endless. Get yourself a stuffed python or a bald cap and you're set.

8. Anything with a Robe

Silky robes are preferred, but if you've got yourself a robe you can be a boxer, VS Angel or the late Hugh Hefner without getting too cold.

9. Meme

When you can't think of a costume for Halloween, so have to turn to internet memes.

10. Anything with a Prop

At one point in time you're going to want to go all out for Halloween, so here are some ideas for when you want to get crafty.

11. Damian Leigh

If you don't know who this is, "Get outta here." And yes, Danny DeVito, we love your work too.

12. Group Costume

Group costumes are always fun and a great way to make sure that you don't look stupid alone.

No matter how you dress as this Halloween, remember to have fun, take lots of pics for the 'gram and be safe!

Anticipating The End Of Your First Semester, As Told By April Ludgate

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

1. When you look at the syllabus and realize there are only three weeks of the semester left; even though the first day was LITERALLY yesterday.

2. You look at your grades and realize they probably aren't as high as they should be, which is a terrifying realization.

3. When you think to yourself at night, "tomorrow, I will wake up early and go to the library ALL day, and, hell, maybe after I'll go to the gym for a little bit, just to push myself that extra mile."

4. Tomorrow actually comes. The inevitable and overpowering sense of procrastination is too strong to overcome.

5. But you DO end up going to the library. Not all day though, but still, a while. But no, you do not go to the gym. Still, you made an effort, so you decide to treat yo' self.

6. When you realize you need to schedule a meeting with your adviser because you need to sign up for classes next semester. But you also realize that since you waited until the last minute, you're going to get stuck with all of the crappy classes.

7. When you low-key try to slip into conversation with your professors that you need extra credit because you're that desperate.

8. When it's already the third time you've seen your adviser in two days because you have no damn clue what you're doing and need all the help you can get.

9. When you apply for a job associated with your major even though you have no experience, but you just want to dive headfirst into the deep end of adulthood and get it over with.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

It would be so much easier to just pay someone to do it for you

1. Figuring out when to start

2. Searching through list after list to get everything you need

3. Shopping for deals

4. Getting bins to put everything in

5. Figuring what you can’t live without

6. Going through clothes to find what you need

7. Finding out your siblings took something from you

8. Fighting with your parents.

9. Trying to plan things with your roommate

10. The fear of forgetting something

11. Move in day

Relatable moments from one of the best shows I have ever watched.

1. When you fail that midterm you studied so hard for.

2. When your crush finally texts back.

3. When payday comes around.

4. When you accidentally like someone's picture from 108 weeks ago.

5. When someone takes your unassigned assigned seat.

6. When your favorite character in your favorite TV series dies.

7. When that guy/girl you’ve been crushing on agrees to go on a date with you.

8. When you have so much to do, and such little motivation to do it.

9. When someone asks for your last fry.

10. When you try a new health-food craze.

11. When you get new clothing.

12. When you check your bank account.

13. When they're serving good food in the dining hall.

14. When someone tries to tell you what to do.

15. Or just your thoughts about life in general.

We all have that "I don't care" attitude.

1. Most students just take life day by day.

2. That means procrastinating, one day at a time.

3. College students don't mind dressing like crap sometimes.

4. In fact, dressing nice feels weird.

5. College students get so stressed that they contemplate dropping on a daily basis.

6. But most find another solution to deal with that stress.

7. And that solution can be pretty cheap. Anything over $5 is expensive.

8. One of the only things college students will spend money on is coffee.

9. College is just really expensive and you never forget how expensive it is.

10. But hey, we're getting a somewhat high-quality education, right?

11. We all really just want to pet dogs all day.

12. And eat pizza for every meal.

13. And stab the next person who asks us what we want to do with our life.

14. However, despite the stress and student loans, college is amazing and there's plenty of reasons to smile.

Thank you, April, for inspiring us with your wicked relatability.
