For someone like me, this week has been a special kind of wonderful. I am the type of person who lives for holidays. I thrive on them! I plan my entire year around the last few month of the year. My main focus is always Christmas, because Christmas is by the most wonderful, magical, perfect time of year, but I love all holidays in general. However, on a much sadder not, we have all officially reached the age where it is inappropriate and just a little weird to knock on people’s doors for free candy.
With Halloween being on Thursday, all of the girls on my floor (and I am sure on all college campuses in the United States of America) are scurrying to find decent Halloween costumes. While most girls take the overly used, clichéd approach of being a bunny, cat, or something else that you can wear heels and animal ears (see Mean Girls, Legally Blonde, or really any other movie where girls dress up for Halloween), my floor is trying, in a somewhat failed attempt to be creative. The whole idea of being creative is a good one. And it probably would have worked much better if they had started to plan a little earlier than a day before Halloween. So far, all they have been able to come up with is The stages of Miley Cyrus’s career or Disney princesses. Not exactly the most creative of outfits. They have each been able to come up with single person costumes, though, so at least they’ll have something. Everyone except for my roommate, that is. So if anyone has easy, quick ideas for her, that would be great.
Lucky for me, my mom mailed me all of my costume type stuff from home, so I am set! Halloween is the perfect time to embrace the weirdness, because just about everything on Halloween is weird. So go out, dress up, and be weird.
