13 Most Worn Costumes at JMU

This weekend was JMU's pride and joy: Halloweekend. Leaving all responsibilities behind, students took over the town of Harrisonburg with all sorts of costumes. What can I say? We love dressing up! Here's my list of the most worn costumes at JMU from this past weekend.

1. Harley Quinn

This one tops the list for the obvious reason that every other girl you saw this weekend was wearing this costume. Do you think everyone actually watched Suicide Squad?

2. Ken Bone

Everyone's favorite debate audience member. Ken Bone stole our hearts in his back-up outfit, after his suit ripped the night of the debate. What did he ask about again? Energy and the economy or something?

3. Playboy Bunnies

This classic costume will be worn for generations. As Cady Heron once told us, "In girl world, Halloween is the one day a year when a girl can dress up like a total slut and no other girls can say anything else about it." Shoutout to all the bunnies this year; it takes a bad ass female to pull that off.

4. The Purge

This one gave me the creeps all night long; the ripped up shirts, blood, and smiling masks. Definitely a popular one, but you had me running the other direction.

5. Netflix and Chill

One of the coziest costumes of the night, but for a 75 degree Halloweekend in the 'Burg, I'm guessing, in hindsight, it wasn't that great of an idea.

6. Superheroes

What can be more fun than spandex, capes, and masks? Guilty of this one. Embracing my inner Wonder Woman had me feeling like I could take on the world.

7. Top Gun

30 years since its release, people still love Tom Cruise. The olive green flight suit makes anyone look like a hunk. Oh, and don't forget your Aviator glasses!

8. Day of the Dead

Much respect for this one. I can't imagine the time that went into the make-up of this costume. I guess we saw them in pairs, because girls had to do each others make-up.

9. Mexican Gangsta'

22 Jump Street definitely laid out the idea for this costume. Plenty of people were impersonating Channing Tatum's character, when he says, "My name is Jeff." The 40s in paper bags were a nice touch.

10. Cat

I love a last minute costume; throwing on all black and a pair of ears that have been in your closet since middle school is really the way to go. I mean your just going to get beer spilled on you all night anyway.

11. Risky Business

Wearing pants is overrated. It's basically a necessity to have a collared shirt at this point, so why not make it into a costume?

12. Cops

This one was my favorite, when Harrisonburg police came to break up the party, and hugged the kids in cop costumes.

13. Referees

Thanks for not blowing your whistles all night long.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.
