this is Halloween, everybody make a scene

actually, it’s 2 days after Halloween. silly me.

but Halloween was pretty fun. i celebrated for the first time in like 3 years. on Saturday i went to an IB2 party dressed as a pirate, which was fun. i wore red lipstick and fake eyelashes, both for the first time in my life.

i didn’t get all that many pictures; i should have taken more. i wore my mom’s boots, which was a terrible idea because she’s two sizes smaller than i am, and got the worst blister i’ve ever had before, i think, and didn’t even get a picture with them on to document how pirate-y they are. what a freaking rip-off.

besides that, my family carved a pumpkin for the first time in years…

first pumpkin we’ve ever carved as something besides a really typical jack-o-lantern face with silly teeth and stuff. i think it turned out pretty epic.

my parents had a party, too, and they decorated really cool-ly for it and dressed up all Bavarian, my mom in a dirndl and my dad in lederhosen… yes, i did have to look up how to spell both of those words… and that was cool. they carved a pumpkin out and used it as a thing for punch or something, which was freaking the coolest thing i’ve ever seen because not only was it just a pumpkin which is cool enough but they put dry ice in the drink, which took it from “really cool” to “holy crap that is epic.” and they also glued tiny spiders all over it and got a drink scooper thing, i do not know what those are called, that was totally like something that would be in a witch’s cauldron. it was so. cool.

and then on actual Halloween, i went to Richard’s house and we watched The Nightmare Before Christmas which i think is more of a Halloween movie than a Christmas movie but could be either i think. i love that movie. but anyway it’s silly because Hayley Williams and her boyfriend dressed up as Jack Skellington and Sally this year. craaazy. i follow her Tumblr in case you’re wondering how i know that information. she looked very cute.

speaking of which, i gave in and got a Tumblr. but it’s not even remotely set up yet. i keep procrastinating that. if setting up a blog really counts as procrastinating. not like there’s a deadline. whatever. but i think it’ll become like, another thing i’m ridiculously distracted from everything else by.

and on that note, i am off.

thing i ♥ of the day: Robot Unicorn Attack.
