HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!
I completely forgot that today was Halloween until I walked into class and saw that my prof was wearing a orange shirt with a black suit. I was about to mentally criticize her fashion sense when I realized that today was Halloween (OHHH!!!). That would explain the cheap candy my sister bought from Shoppers yesterday.
Halloween just doesn't have the same feeling as it did, dare I say, a DECADE ago. *sigh* Sitting in my grade 4 class, I couldn't wait for the final bell to ring so that I could rush home jump into my costume (I think that year I dressed up as a crazy rocker chick). I remember impatiently waiting at home until it was an "appropriate" (according to my father) time to go out tick-or-treating. I'd have previously stressed to my mom to give away all the "bad" candy first before even touching the good stuff. And at the end of the night after convincing my dad to let me to go as many "one more houses" as I could get away with, I'd pour out my hard earned candy in the middle of the living room floor careful not to mix any of it with my sister's pile. My dad would always steal some of my candy and I'd get so mad if he took any of the "limited" good stuff.
Now, I stay at home and give out candy. It's not as fun, but I love it when kids show up with really cool costumes. I hate it when kids don't dress up at all. I want to kick them. Don't they realize that when you dress up, you get more candy? I don't dress up anymore, but I do dress up my dogs. HAHAHA. I don't think they really appreciate it, but there's nothing they can do! =P
I think I'm going to head home, carve a pumpkin and get ready to give out candy. I'll be sitting next to the door with my laptop working on my assignments while waiting for kids to come. I wonder if the people on campus go around trick-or-treating? Probably not. I think it'd be more acceptable to be going out to a club or something.
In the past I've dressed up as a devil, nurse, yellow power-ranger, rocker chick, clown, and the ever-popular witch. What about you?
