12 Original Halloween Costume Ideas
Campus Riot

Halloween is slowly inching closer and closer and we all know everyone is stressing out to have a unique costume this year so here are some funny and original ideas that you can give your own twist on! Ditch the sexy or scary costumes this October and get in touch with your inner comedian instead...

1. Juan Direction

A fun twist on the fangirled boy band “One Direction”...Just get a group of friends some sombreros and mustaches and you will have a fiesta!

2. A Gold Digger

Turn this nickname into a festive word game by dressing up in all gold and carrying a small shovel. Dress the part while looking feeling good decked out in gold.

3. Damian from Mean Girls

Want to go down in history as the most fetch female? Dress the part by wearing a hoodie and sunnies and a sign that reads, “she doesn’t even go here!”

4. Shark Week

Get a group of friends and dress up as the most anticipated week of the year: Shark Week! Write the name of the week on a grey tee, splatter some fake blood, and throw on a shark hat and you’ll swim through the crowds!

5. Helga Pataki from Hey Arnold!

The key features of this highly bossy lady are a pink dress, pig tails, a pink bow, and a thick unibrow. You’ll look just like the cartoon character herself, have fun bossing everyone around!

6. Wednesday Addams

Calling all RBF-ers! Realistically, anyone can do this one. All you’ll need is an all black dress with a white collar, two braids, and the betchiest face for the public eye. Just forget how to smile, drink your daily poison, and be assertive. You’ll have people fooled that you’re the real deal.

7. Fraternity Boys

They are the most terrifying. Bros inside and out. Be sure to channel your inner total frat move by wearing Sperrys and creaming everyone in drinking games. Cuz, that’s all they do anyways, right?

8. “Cereal” Killer

This funny idea gives a funny twist to the creepy meaning. To get the look, wear torn and cut up clothing and stick small cereal boxes all over. Add a bloody knife and splattered blood everywhere and voila, no one will mess with you.

9. Wine Bag

Everyone loves a good box of wine! Dress up as your favorite flavor and you’ll be fifty shades of Franzia.

10. 404 Error

Are you the laziest person you know? Good. A plain t-shirt and a sharpie is all that you’ll need. You’ll be the most nonchalant one at the party.

11. Netflix and Chill


The Netflix marketing department is no doubt jumping for joy as they watch this costume on the internet. Who doesn't love Netflix? This is the perfect idea for a Hallow's Eve costume. Just throw on a shapeless red t-shirt and a huge bag of ice and you are ready to chill!

12. The 11th Instagram Like


Honestly, this person is always praised and usually seals the deal for most people. Let's be real, we all hit the refresh button until you see the lucky number "11" so why not be the most liked person at the party this October!

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
