6 Basic Halloween Costumes

Halloween is always my favorite time of the year. As a girl, finding a Halloween costume that is not "basic" is always a difficult task. Every year we stress about something unique to be, but in reality, there will be 10 other people with our same costume. I'm sure this Halloween you will see some of these basic costumes:

1. Any costume that has animal ears.

You already know that this Halloween 50% of girls are going to be wearing either cat, mouse, or bunny ears. I am guilty of doing this too because it's so easy to put together.

2. The Risky Business costume.

You will see a ton of girls wearing an over-sized button down shirts, that was borrowed from a guy friend. She will probably pair this with knee high socks and a backwards hat to add to the basic-ness of the costume.

3. A girl in an over-sized Jersey, face paint, and knee high socks.

This is another basic costume where a girl will usually steal a jersey from a guy to either wear as a dress or tie up in the back. You also can't forget about the knee high socks with the face paint!

4. Squad Superhero Costumes.

This squad costume is one of my favorites out of the 6 that I am definitely guilty of. The superhero corsets always make appearances on Halloween since it's great for a group of friends to do a costume together.

5. A sexy ________ (cop, nurse, etc.).

This is another popular one among College kids. Any costume you can imagine can be turned into a "sexy costume" in College. The popular ones are a cop, nurse, witch, cowgirl, and even firefighter.

6. Angel and Devil.

This is another basic costume that is guaranteed to be worn by two best friends. This one is so easy because you just need the two headpieces along with two solid colored outfits.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
