These days, it's hard to come up with original Halloween costumes. Most of us just stick with a bunny or the devil since it's an easy last-minute costume, but year after year, that can get repetitive and boring. Some may even think you're basic just for wearing those costumes since they're so played out now. However, fear not, here's a list of original Halloween costumes that no other will have.

1. Spongebob themed biker gang

Get a few friends together, grab some leather jackets, and paint "The Mild Ones" on the back, and you've got that elderly biker gang from Spongebob. Or, if you're really feeling it, you could be the actual Wild Ones, and add some grunge and grit to look like a real biker gang. However, I'm sure the Spongebob reference will get a few laughs when you explain it if you're going for more of a joke. Honestly though, you could probably make a costume out of just about any Spongebob episode. You could even be a popular Spongebob meme. The world is your oyster.

2. Any Vine

Honestly, you can't go wrong with vines. Dress up like the guy who almost dropped his croissant. Dress up like the girl who wants to know how Ms. Keisha is doing. Dress up like the girl who vapes at the party. Dress up like the guy who has never been to Oovoo Javer. The possibilities are absolutely endless, and I'm sure this one will get you a laugh, too.

3. A Disney princess

You just can't go wrong with a Disney movie. However, don't wear your princess costume from the sixth grade. Try to make it a little more cute and original. For example, if you're going for Jasmine, wear a crop top and some looser fitting pants, then accessorize accordingly.

4. Juno and Bleeker

If you have a mans, this could be a perfect couples costume. Just look up a picture and find some clothes at your nearest Goodwill.

5. A League of Their Own

Ya know, the baseball movie with Tom Hanks where girls step up and show their stuff to their haters. All you really need is an old-fashioned pink dress, a baseball mitt, and a hat. For more ideas, check out some pictures online.

6. Gumball machine

Get a two-piece red outfit (bandeau top and skirt), grab a hot glue gun, and attach some multi-colored puff balls to the top. Then, complete the look with a little label on the bottoms for change.

7. Scooby Doo

Velma or Daphne. Pick your poison.

8. Pick an actor

Grab some friends and choose an actor or actress -- Will Ferrell, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Aniston, Anne Hathaway -- that's played multiple larger known roles. Each of you pick a different movie character that they've played, then customize your outfit accordingly!

9. Pick a TV show

One Tree Hill, FRIENDS, That 70's Show, Gossip Girl, The Office -- you know the drill.

10. Throw it back

Remember your favorite shows and cartoons growing up? The most popular movies that kept you glued to the screen? Embody one of those ideas! You can be Arthur, Ashley Spinelli from Recess, Arnold from the Magic School Bus, Bill Nye the Science Guy, Susie Carmichael from Rugrats, Michelle Tanner from Full House, Jessie Spano from Saved by the Bell, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Amanda Bynes in her very own Amanda Show, Topanga Lawrence from Boy Meets World, any character from Sister, Sister, The Powderpuff Girls, Teen Titans, Danny Phantom, or Fairly Odd Parents.

I guess the point is you can really get creative with these costumes, and there's a list of endless possibilities out there. A lot of these outfits would probably be low-budget, so you wouldn't have to spend an arm and a leg for the costume unless you really wanted to. You can make it a DIY project with friends or a shopping day. Any character from a TV show, cartoon, or movie also has the option of standing alone instead of making it a group plan. Throw around different ideas with others, and even if you don't like anything listed here, hopefully, it inspired an idea in the back of your head. Just have fun with it.

Happy Halloween.

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!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

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.

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.
