Best Homemade Halloween Costumes

Halloween is right around the corner and everyone is starting to get their costumes all together. Every year you can always suspect you're going to see the typical nerds, pirates, school teacher, cats, angels, zombies and more. Then there are the newer costumes like Katniss from "The Hunger Games", a wizard from Harry Potter and the superheroes from "The Avengers". The best part of Halloween is seeing all the creative costumes and all the fun to be had. Here are some costumes that are aren't the typical ensemble, but are still cute and recognizable:

1. Russell from "Up"

Being Russel for Halloween is probably one of the cutest and easiest costume. All you need is the yellow hat, yelow shirt and brown shorts (or leggings if it's cold). Than the sash which you can make yourself with felt and super glue.

2. Mario and Luigi

Everyone knows the Mario and Luigi characters, and you can make this costume basically however you want depending on personal style. You just simply need the shirt, hat and mustache, and then for the bottoms you can do either pants, shorts or a tu-tu.

3. Zenon

This one might take a little more time than the ones above just because trying to find leggings and shirt that match almost perfectly might be hard. But after you accomplish this task, you just need a bright vest and silver skirt. This costume will absolutely ensure a stellar time.

4. Mobile Apps

This one is definitely becoming more popular in the Halloween scene. Again, this one has a lot of different options of how you want to dress. You can do it as above with longer shirts, you can do tank tops and tu-tus. You could even do it as a box with the app logo on it.

5. Woody and Buzz Lightyear


Woody and Buzz Lightyear can be a couple costume like above or you can go as either of them individually. Let's start with Woody; you definitely will need the yellow shirt and vest. Then for the pants, it can be shorts or longer pants depending on what your preference is. For Buzz, you need the white top and leggings with the green vest. On the bottom of the shoes you cannot forget to put Andy's name to complete the whole get-up.

6. Angelica Pickles

This is another easy costume that can be pulled together last minute. All you need is the purple dress and the orange long sleeve shirt under the dress. To complete the costume, you can wear leggings and glue on the dots. However, I think for people to fully understand who you are, the pigtails are a must.


Happy Halloween!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
