I woke up Wednesday morning like any other morning ... with lots of coffee! Soon, however, I realized that it was not any average day of the week: it was Halloween! Instead of putting on
the same boring old jeans, I got to open my closet and find something funky!I didn't really have time to go to any costume parties this year, (why do schools celebrate holidays with semester exams?), so I hadn't masterminded any interesting persona. I took the easy way out, grabbed the funkiest dress I could find, and called myself a hippy.
The first thing I saw, after grabbing a Bacon Ranger from Whyllie Market, was this guy that looked like the puppet from the Saw movies, (can't wait to see #4!), and man, that was kind of creepy! He was ridding a little tricycle and everything! I made him stop and take my first Halloween picture of the day!Throughout the day, while walking to class, I saw so many creative costumes. There were witches, (like my friend Stacy), Salor Moons, and a couple of former presidents roaming the
halls. I saw V, from V for Vendetta, but I was so star-struck I forgot to get a picture.I have no idea who the guys in the masks were, but the guy in the
dinner jacket is a friend of mine from PAW (Parkside Association of Wargamers). He looks happy now, but you should see him after I beat him in Smash Brothers! (Oh ... slam!) There were people dressed up in class, but I didn't see any teachers getting in on the action.Even so, there was an energy in the classroom tha
t reminded me of high school. Usually, everyone is content to sit patiently and eager to learn. Even though we're too old for trick-or-treating, we still couldn't wait to get out of class and enjoy this holiday.
