Halloween

Ah! I just figured out I can’t go to my cross dressing party. :`-( Turns out my dad’s taking me and our family to some lake that we went to like, a month and a half ago and it kinda got boring after a while. And now I’m really ticked off about it because I went to a college fair at my school last night and one of the Colleges I’m thinking about going to is having an open house on the 31st, but guess who’s gonna be at the lake? I’m pretty disappointed at the whole situation. :frowning:

I figured it out! I’m gonna be an accident victim, like I just escaped from the hospital or something I’ll have my hand and head wrapped in bandages, and this cast-like boot on my leg. Then top it off with basketball shorts and my “wear-to-the-ER-every-time” shirt. Really, it’s a shirt that says “It’s my brother’s fault” which I literally wear every time I go to the ER, which is a lot. :laughing:

Both your costumes sound cool, Violet Parr, but I’d have thought Violet is more your kind of thing since you’re obviously a massive fan of her. :smiley: Either one sounds good, though.

That sucks, mo. You sure you can’t convince your dad to take you to the college open house instead? You could talk about how important it is and everything.

Haha, that’s such a cool costume soue1313. Wearing that shirt at hospital sounds very appropriate. :laughing:

I’m definitely having my Hallowe’en party! Yaay! It’s sort of also going to be a leaving party as a few days later I’m off to Thailand. But I’ve no idea what my costume is going to be…I’ll have to think about this one.

I agree with lizardgirl, mo. You should totally talk your dad into the whole open house thing. I think that’d be a great opportunity! :slight_smile:

That’s awesome you were able to organize a Halloween/going away party, lizardgirl. I’m sure you’ll come up with something fantastic for a costume. :wink:

little chef

lizardgirl- Yeah, I think that’s what I’ll end up doing :slight_smile: . The Violet costume’s more comfortable, too, so… yeah. We just gotta find some way to put the Incredibles’ symbol on it, then I’ll be golden :slight_smile: !

Still don’t know what we’re doing. I’m trying to talk my parents into taking me to MGM the night before Halloween. You might of heard me say this before, but my mom’s a nurse and she works night shift, and she’s working on Halloween night, so we can’t go then. But the day before works because both my parents are off work. And, that way, I’ll stick out a little more :wink: .

lizardgirl and little_chef_eva09, I already tried talking him out of it, but he’s already got reservations and stuff, so yeah, I kinda have to go, no way around it, which totally sucks. :frowning:

Well, I’m past the trick or treat age but I am going to Halloween party the day before. What am I going as? I’ll give you one guess! But I must say the pointed ears look good on me. :slight_smile: The day of Halloween I’m gonna go see my best friend’s new house and we plan on watching Nightmare Before Christmas. I might dress up again just for the heck of it, or at least wear the ears. :wink:

I’m going to go to a Haunted Hotel with my friends at Midnight of Halloween.

Happy Halloween Everyone!

Happy Halloween! I wish everyone a ghoulishly glorious day :smiley: Halloween’s a big day for me…

Ugh, I’m so mad right now, guys.

So that friend of ours who runs a food pantry and had an open house there last year isn’t doing it this year, so I have nothing else planned and don’t have anywhere else to be, so I can’t even wear the awesome costume I had planned. :frowning: My mom didn’t let me finish it for the longest time cuz she kept nagging me about that open house (which I couldn’t get info on from my friend who doesn’t like to check Facebook… >.>) and she’s like, “Well, if they’re not doing it there’s no point of finishing that.” Urgh. So I didn’t even have my costume finished, anyways.

What a bummer of a night. She’s not even letting my sis and I go driving around uptown looking for trick-or-treaters (cuz that’s like, our thing every Halloween… trick-or-treater hunting :stuck_out_tongue:).

Oh well. At least we’ll still be able to watch Holes later on tonight… if we can find a decent DVD player, cuz the one in our bedroom sucks. :unamused:

Hope you guys all have a great night!

little chef

Darn, I’m sorry to hear that you won’t have a costume little_chef that’s a bummer. Halloween’s always so fun when you’re dressed up. I hope things go well for you tonight, good luck!

And, without further ado, I give you, W-Edude1906! (aka me as Russell)

twitpic.com/nqlua Finally! I’m so happy with this (but I’m missing the little tassel under his sash :frowning:

Well, happy Halloween, everybody :slight_smile: . I hope you all are having a great day.

little_chef_eva09- Aw, dang, that stinks. You know, just because you’re not going anywhere doesn’t mean you can’t finish and wear your costume :wink: . I didn’t get to do anything today (though that was mostly my fault), but I’m gonna dress up tomorrow. It’s always fun to dress up anyway.

ffdude1906- Man :open_mouth: , your costume is AWESOME :smiley: ! You made that yourself? WOW! Wish my Violet costume would’ve turned out that great. Great job with that :slight_smile: !

Well, as I said, I didn’t get to do anything today. But it really was my fault. See, we were going to go to this place with a bunch of Disney shops, were they had a trick-or-treating thing going on. But Mom has to work tonight, and it’s always fun going with her. Dad offered, but I thought he’d be embarrassed because I’m “too old” to dress up, and that wouldn’t have been fun for either of us. Now that I think about it, he would’ve been fine. I guess I just wanted to have a pity party (I’ll admit, I do that some times). Ugh! I’m just so freaking mad at myself! This will be the first, the FIRST, Halloween the I did nothing, all because I was upset the Mom couldn’t go with me and My Violet costume didn’t turn out as well as I wanted it to.Ugh… But I’ll at least dress up tomorrow. I decided to wear my Micheal Jackson costume, with my Violet wig and mask. I’ll be a secret agent :sunglasses: . And that way, I can still be Violet (more or less). Hope there’s something to do… I just hope there’s still some candy floating around by tomorrow, 'cause I didn’t get one piece :frowning: .

On the bright side, I did do somthing tonight. We put up the Christmas Tree :slight_smile: ! It’s not decorated or anything, but it’s up. Yeah, a little early, I know, but it’s tradition :slight_smile: . We’ll get to decorating tomorrow.

little_chef_eva09: aw that sucks, sRE bout that :frowning:

ffdude1906: and i saw ur russel costume, quite elaborate. as with violet, i can’t believe u actually made that :open_mouth: lol, especially the badges.

But anyways … HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Bit of a late answer, but I wanted to post before I go out. I’m going as a Sim. Yeah a bit underwhelming I know, lol, but I made the green plumbob with wires and paper mache and green acrylic paint, although it got destroyed once by my dog and then again by mystery o_O. But I remade it and kinda improved it by coating it with fixative (u kno the sprays used for fixing charcoal and pastel drawings) to make it shiny, and it surprisingly worked.
And in about 10 minutes I’m going on my free-candy-spree. =)

Yesterday at school everybody dressed up. It was pretty interesting seeing what everyone was. And I saw many many Pixar/Disney costumes, and two Transformers whose costumes could actually transform!
I saw Andy, Woody, Buzz, Jesse, Nemo, and my friend came as the Joker and even pulled off the voice pretty well, even though that’s got nothing to do with Pixar/Disney lol. And for both at Pixar and school, someone went as Spock. hehe

ffdude1906 - Ha ha. Best costume ever! Gee whiz, a lot of effort must have gone into it. You should totally tweet that to Lee and see what he says. What did people say when you went out in public? Also, can I adopt you? You look so adorable in that costume. 8D

Hey, thanks guys! My Halloween wasn’t as exciting as I would have liked if I had the choice, but it wasn’t terrible. I had to work tonight, it’s practically impossible not to considering that my store gives out free hotdogs and icecream for 5 hours. EVERYONE has to work. Thing is, everyone is required not to be in uniform, so we get to look awesome. I felt so freaking spiffy walking around in my getup! None of the customers knew I was specifically a Wilderness Explorer, just a boy scout (which irritates me a bit, and one guy, a grown man no less, actually called me a girl scout, and a brownie. Kinda felt insulted), but I got several comments on how good it looked. One group of girls said I was cute, which made me laugh.

Afterwards, I headed up to the college dorms to hang out with my few friends that were there. They loved it, and I actually did Russell’s front door spiel for them (book and all, but it was just a textbook), which made them laugh.

Aw, that’s such a cool Halloween day, Chris. Perhaps most of your customers weren’t Pixar fans? Still, that costume is great.

It’s kinda lame how Halloween is only confined to bars and clubs here. When I travel to America I HAVE to go trick-or-treating! Who wants to go with me? :smiley:

violently raises both hands and spazzes COUNT ME IN! We’d rock that Halloween so hard, Pixar duds, it’d be awesome.

Another Halloween come and gone :frowning:
Its always such a letdown after a holiday.

Comping Up Next:
Thanksgiving!

ffdude1906: Now that’s a praise-worthy costume! You really look like [Carl voice][spoil]that super wilderness guy, with the GPMs and the badges[/spoil][/Carl voice]. :sunglasses:

Violet Parr: I can’t think of anyone else who puts up the Christmas tree that early, but I always get mocked for keeping it until it’s almost Easter. :wink:
