It's that time of the year again. Spooky time.

Time for the haunted houses, corn mazes, Halloween parties and spooky movies. And the best part of it all are the Halloween costumes you get to wear to the parties. However, it also seems to the hardest part of it all. There's so many things you have to think about when it comes to choosing the PERFECT costume. Of course, it's a must to be the most creative and outstanding one there.

When it comes to making such a difficult decision, go through and answer these questions that are a MUST to ask yourself before picking out a costume.

1. How much money do you wanna spend?

It's always important to think about this when deciding on a costume. They can get pretty pricey.

2. How supplies/materials do you need?

Many people like to do DIY costumes for Halloween. If you decide to go this route, make you think about the materials you'll need beforehand. Prepare yourself ahead of time so you can have the best costume there.

3. Are you waiting until the last minute?

If you're anything like me, you probably wait until the very minute to get your costume. I've known what I wanted to do, but I wait until literally the day before the Halloween party to get what I need to create my costume.

4. How extravagant do you want to be?

This is something you always want to think about. How big and all-out for your costume do you want to go? Is it going to be creative enough?

5. How do you want to look?

I know for me, when it comes to Halloween, it's all about the makeup. I always decide my costumes based on what how cool I want my makeup to look.

6. What is going to stand out the most?

Go with your own personal creativity and style.

7. How much time do you want to spend getting ready and putting together your costume?

I mean, no one wants to spend hours getting ready, do they?

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!

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.

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.
