6 Pop-Culture Costumes for Your Best Halloween Yet
Pop Sugar

What a year it's been thus far in 2016. For better or for worse, it's been a year to remember. With that being said, 2016 has given us the truly wonderful gift of endless Halloween costume ideas—what luck! Check out these six festive get-ups that will surely get you on the "Best Costume" list.

1. Stranger Things

Obviously, this Netflix original took off like wild fire this summer, so why not pay tribute to the BRILLIANT show by dressing up like Joyce from Stranger Things?Christmas lights and all.

2. Donald Trump

I mean this one is kind of a no-brainer, but if Republican candidate Donald Trump did not cross your mind as someone to impersonate on Halloween this year (I mean it's quite simple, isn't it?), I think you might want to give this a look. To be honest, all you really need to perfect is the hair.


3. Simone Biles

To all my sporty gals out there, this is for you! Embrace your inner-Olympian this Halloween by dressing up as Summer Olympics all-star, Simone Biles. All you need is a red leotard and fake medal (gold, obvi!). Warning: You may feel prone to prancing around and attempting stunts at your Halloween party--refrain from this!


4. Pokémon Go! Trainer

Thank God that this is a fad. I did not partake in this interesting activity, but nonetheless, it is an important part of Summer 2016 culture. Dress up in your BEST trainer attire and don't forget to create your own Pokéball. Best of all, it's Halloween, so no pressure to to catch 'em all!



5. SnapChat Filters

Calling all basic ladies! This is an easy costume that everyone who uses Snap Chat will recognize. Which is practically EVERY millennial on the planet, right? Pick your favorite filter, whether it's puppy dog or throwing up a rainbow. Perhaps, some adorable dog ears and a make-shift puppy tongue attached to a popsicle stick. #NoFilter


6. "Becky With the Good Hair"

This one could be a bit of a stretch, but I have no doubt that anyone who pays even the smallest bit of attention to pop culture would understand it. Go get your hair all dolled up at a blow-out bar and then rock some jeans, and a simple t-shirt with a name tag that says "Becky." Maybe hold a hair brush as well.

There you have it, kiddos. Some great Halloween costume ideas from none other than perhaps the most bizarre year in a millennial's life. Have fun, be safe and eat an absurd amount of candy!

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
