It's finally Halloweek here at USC and I could not be more excited! Not only is it the week of Halloween, it's also my birth week. With my birthday being two days after Halloween, it's easily one of my favorite holidays.

I enjoy seeing the costumes that everyone decides on wearing but I hate seeing the same costumes year after year. I'm even guilty of being a basic black cat.

Here are basic costumes I hope not to see this week:

1. Aliens

Giphy

The combination of iridescent leggings, tutus, glitter and space buns is so 2000 late.

2. Witches

Giphy

This is the costume for all the basic witches in the world.

3. Cats

Giphy

Simple but played out.

4. Angels

Falling from the sky? More like falling from the land of basic costumes.

5. Devils

Giphy

They should make unoriginality the eight deadly sin.

6. Officers

Giphy

You don't have the right to remain basic.

7. Victoria Secret Angels

Giphy

Many girls dream of walking in the Victoria Secret fashion show but down the streets of Five Points is not a good start.

8. Playboy Bunnies

Bunnies are cute and adorable, this costume, on the other hand, is becoming too mainstream.

9. Military Girls

Giphy

Good thing camouflage makes you invisible.

10. Netflix & Chill

It was cute and original when the first group thought of it, now its been played out like the phrase.

11. Vampires

Giphy

These costumes suck, literally.

12. Referees

Being this basic should be a flag on the play,

13. School Girls

Giphy

Dressed up as a sexy school girl? Oops, you did it again.

14. Mermaids

Giphy

H2Oh no!

15. "Purge" Masks

This is not a test. This is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of the week of Basic Halloween costumes in Five Points.

Happy Halloween, USC!!!

College is supposed to be one of the best times of your life. However, it is also one of the toughest transitions to make.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
