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.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
