13 Inexpensive And Punny Halloween Costumes

Good evening! It is October!! Do you know what that means?

It's Halloween time!

'Tis the season to get funkayyyyy. Anyway, Halloween is the month where you can let your freak flag fly. If you like bats, this is the month for you. If you have a strange obsession with pumpkins, it's your time to shine.

If you like skulls and the dead, that's kinda odd, but it's acceptable this month. This is the month where I can plaster my home in sparkly pumpkins, leaves and ghosts; and people are not allowed to look at me weird.

It's fall.

I will keep my sparkly pumpkins up until after thanksgiving, and then put my Christmas tree up. This is also the month where you can dress up with bat earrings, wear purple eye shadow, and not get looked at weirdly.

One of my other favorites is the puns! You can dress up as your favorite jokes. So, I put together some of my favorite punny costumes for this lovely Halloween.


1. Holy Cow!

All you need for this is a shirt with spots, a painted on nose, and a halo! Funny and great for any Halloween party!

2. Cereal Killer.


Is it the 31st, and did you just finish a box of cereal? Sounds like you just made a Halloween costume!

3. Reigning Cats & Dogs.


Do you remember that episode on New Girl where Shelby had the reigning cats & dogs and no one got it? Well, she did the hard work, and now it's primed and ready for you to wear it this year! Just get a few stuffed cats & dogs, a cape and a tiara!

4. Smart Cookie!


If you've got an old cap and gown sitting in your closet, put it to use one more time, and make a giant cookie. Now, you're a smart cookie!

5. Spice Girls.

I'll tell ya what I want, what I really really want. I want a cute costume!

6. Holy Guacamole.


Just like the holy cow, just wear a green shirt, make an avocado pit, and recycle your halo.

7. Social Butterfly.


We all know you're already not shy, so just find some butterfly wings, and print out the Facebook, Insta and Twitter icons!

8. Ceiling fan.


This is super simple, just get a shirt and some banners that say ceiling.

9. Chick Magnet.


You know that shirt all the guys in fourth grade had that said "chick magnet" and everyone was like "I don't get it?" Well, we are older now, and puns are in!

10. Dust Bunny.


Just wear something white, bring a duster, and some bunny ears. It'll be great!

11. Maroon 5.


Are you freaking out about finding a costume last minute? Just find your favorite maroon shirt, and write 5 on a piece of paper. Boom! You're costumed.

12. Deviled Eggs.


Some devil horns, and an egg costume. Sounds easy enough.

13. Pig In a Blanket.


Wear pink and wrap yourself in a blanket. Honestly, I'm a piggy in a blanket anytime I wrap myself in a blanket.


Just remember, you can be whatever you want. Why not be something hilarious?

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
