For some reason Halloween seems to sneak up on us every single year. One day it's the first of October and before you know it you have one week to figure out 5 different costumes that are creative and cheap. And worst of all you don't even get candy for your efforts.
Here are the 12 stages of college Halloween as told by the most iconic Halloween movie of all time, Hocus Pocus:
1. Decorating your house with stuff from the care packages your mom sends you.
2. Scrolling through Pintrest and looking at cool costume ideas, but knowing that deep down you're not creative at all.
3. Deciding who's going to be who in the group costume.
4. Trying to be crafty, but realizing your art skills peaked in 3rd grade.
5. Seeing all the invitations for the different parties.
6. Realizing Halloween is in two days and you have nothing planned or purchased.
7. Low-key wishing you could go trick-or- treating instead of trying to walk in uncomfortable heels all night.
8. When your professors have exams the week before or after Halloween weekend.
9. All of a sudden it's 5:30 pm on Thursday and your costume looks terrible and you don't understand why people dress up anyway.
10. Having your friends reassure you that your costume looks amazing.
11. Trying to look cute while dancing in the world's most awkward costume.
12. Two seconds later it's the end of the weekend and the thought of trying to do school work is physically painful.
13. You repeat the stressful process all over again next year even though you told yourself you wouldn't.
