Halloween might be nearly three months away, but with all the craziness that is the first two months of the school year, it's hard to find time to plan for it. Here are some ideas you can steal from me if you need some inspo!

1. The cast of 'Friends'

Basic, but this is still one of my favorite group costume ideas. Everyone can annoy the rest of the group by saying the best one-liners all day long.

2. Sexy Disney princesses, or Disney princesses gone 'bad'

I love this idea for a group of gal pals because there's so much you can do with it! If you want to make the princesses criminals, you can do mug shots and messy makeup.

3. Breakfast

Think about it... bacon dress and a sunny-side up hat? Sold!

4. Mario Kart

Dress up as the characters from Mario, and then have a Mario Kart tournament at someone's house later.

5. Andy's toy box

There's a character for everyone. Personally, I'd want to be one of the green aliens. I'd say "ooohhhhh" all night long.

6. High school selves

Fast forward five years in time and dress up as your high school self. You'll have fun getting to know your college friends as they were before you met them.

7. Coffee shop bonanza

Pick your favorite coffee shop, whether it's Starbucks, Caribou, or Dunkin Donuts, and come up with a way to embody it. For example, one person could wear a donut inner tube and someone else could be carrying a plastic ball trying to dunk them!

8. Cheetah girls

You could go literal with this and just wear cheetah print, or you could dust off your old Juicy hoodie from middle school and throw it on!

9. Emojis

Find a way for everyone in your group to embody a different emoji. For example, the "embarrassed emoji" could pile the blush on their cheeks, and the crying emoji could have blue paint exaggerated down their face all day.

10. Suicide Squad

I really want to be Harley Quinn, so I included this one for your group!

11. Hugs and kisses

Put on silver slip dresses and tie the white ties around your neck as necklaces to make yourself into the group of quintessential Hershey kisses. Ask people if they want hugs or kisses!!

12. Donna and the Dynamos

Wear bell bottoms and pretend you're the dancing queen, young and sweet, only seventeen.

13. DuckTales


Super simple — you just have to match your headpiece to your shirt and add some yellow kicks!

14. Pink Sisters

Dress up in all pink and be the pink sisters from "Monster's University!" Perfect costume for a group of sorority sisters.

15. Riley's emotions


Being Disgust would be SO fun! Think about it.

16. Magic markers

We're not crayons, we're magic markers!!! You could have a lot of fun with this one.

17. The fab four on "The Office"

A group of two girls and two guys would be perfect to do Angela, Pam, Jim, and Dwight!

18. Power Puff Girls

Perfect for any trio of feminists out there.

19. "Guardians of the Galaxy"

This would be amazing. Tell me you wouldn't want to see one of your friends be Groot??

20. The LGBTQ flag

Have each of a group of five friends wear a different color of the flag, and write a different letter of "LGBTQ" on each person's shirt!!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
