“Trick or Treating” may be for little kids, but try to tell any college student that the holiday is reserved for elementary schoolers and they will eat you alive.
Halloween parties are freakin’ awesome. And it’s a known fact that us college kids will be running rampant all over the country come Halloween night. What other chance do we get to play beer pong as Kanye West and Taylor Swift (stopping the game mid-toss with a “Imma let you finish…” before snatching the pong ball from each other)?
But dressing up as a slutty ____ (insert anything here….no really, anything), isn’t the only way to celebrate.
If you’re going to throw a party or be a guest at one (and that covers pretty much everyone) why not go all out and make one of these awesome Halloween cocktails? We’re all suckers for themed parties, so why not do it up big? After we graduate, its not going to be acceptable anymore (not that that means we won’t still do it).
So ditch the wine coolers and the beer keg (mmm perhaps that can stay…) and get creative for the holiday. [Click on the images to get the ghoulishly tasty recipes!]
Fun Extras:
Okay, so us girls obviously appreciate cute little extras to help make a party festive. Here’s some easy ways to up the authenticity factor of your Halloween bash this year!
Eyeball Ice Cubes
Also, try freezing your ice cubes with fake bugs, severed fingers or tiny plastic babies inside! (Yea, we know it’s super creepy, but, come on, it’s Halloween!)
Syringe Jello Shots
So much more fun then the traditional jello shot! Plus you know everything hits you quicker when injected! (Note: do not actually inject the shot into your arm. Just makin’ sure….)
Glowing Swizzle Sticks
Use them for stir sticks to make the cocktails glow!
Bloody/Slime Rimmed Glasses
It’s disgusting, yes, but also totally tasty!

Dear Tuffy Luv, I have been seeing this guy at school on-and-off since the beginning of the school year. He’s a freshman, I’m a sophomore. At the beginning, we hit it off great for about three weeks, and then he felt that he needed to keep his options open as a freshman–which I understood and let it go. He came back around Thanksgiving time and told me he wanted to start seeing me again, and I agreed.
