Now that October has begun, you’ve probably been thinking about what you plan on being for Halloween. Whether you’re dressing with a group or going by yourself, it's important to know what costumes are relevant right now. That being said, here are all the good (and bad) costume ideas for this Halloween.

New But Expected:

1. "Stranger Things”

With the Netflix-original becoming a worldwide phenomenon, there is bond to be recreations of the show’s characters at every party you go to. Be on the lookout for Elevens and Barbs, and if you find anyone that can portray the other character well, since they all basically wear the same thing, congratulate them.

2. “Suicide Squad”

Even though the movie was awful, the costumes will definitely be in attendance this Halloween. I’m expecting to see multiple Harley Quinns, and possibly a Joker or a Deadshot.

3. Ken Bone

Check out this handsome boy! After the second debate, the internet fell in love with Kenneth Bone, and the famous red sweater he wore sold out in minutes, so I expect to see most of them this Halloween.

4. "Star Wars”

With “The Force Awakens” out last year, ‘Rogue One” coming out in two months, and “Star Wars 8” coming out next year, I expect to see a few Star Wars fans put together some really awesome outfits this Halloween. There better at least be some Reys, Finns and Poes. I also demand to see babies in Darth Vader outfits.

5. “Overwatch”

If you can recreate one of these characters, and do it well, I applaud you. The characters of “Overwatch” are a very diverse group with very specific outfits, to props to you if you can pull it off.

The Classics:

6. Zombies

Especially with “The Walking Dead” still pulling in huge viewers, and with so many other zombie plays, movies, and TV shows, the zombie crew is definitely one you’ll see this year. If you got a good makeup artist (like I did in this picture) then it’s a pretty easy and fun costume to have.

7. “Game of Thrones”

Being my (and many others) favorite show, Game of Thrones is going to have it’s 6th year of causing people to dress as their beloved medieval characters. I get excited whenever I see Daenerys Targaryen in attendance, but I hope to also see some Cerseis, Tyrions, and maybe some Aryas or Jon Snows.

8. “Orange Is The New Black”

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen a group of girls dress as the OITNB crew. There’s always been a Piper, Crazy Eyes, Pennsatuckey, Vause and Red. But let’s see if we can get some other characters to appear this year, like Nicky, Taystee or Flaca.

8. Marvel characters

I better see some babies in Captain America or Iron Man costumes. I personally have been Thor multiple times, and it’s pretty easy do put together. Extra points if you portray a Netflix character and do it well.

9. Mad Hatter

Even though “Alice Through The Looking Glass” didn’t do as well as people thought it would, I always see at least one Mad Hatter costume. If done well, they're really cool.

PLEASE DON’T BE:

10. Harambe

Just like the gorilla, the joke is dead. Please don’t wear a gorilla outfit. Everyone will find you annoying.

11. Miley Cyrus at the VMAs

Get with times people! This was super funny like three years ago but not anymore.

12. Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton

Please don’t. A Trump mask might have been barely funny last year but by this point it’s just going to cause an awkward political conversation.

13. Pepe


Apparently he’s a hate symbol now? But that’s not the only reason not the wear that costume! He’s also super not funny!

14. Horse Masks

Because they’re not funny.

15. Clowns


For everyone’s sake, and especially yours, don’t wear a clown costume. You’ll 100 percent get beat up.

Good luck!!!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
