So... maybe it's because we just got our costumes, or maybe because we're decorating today, but I'm in a Halloween mood. It's my favorite holiday ever. ^_^
What's everyone doing for Halloween? Trick-or-treating, parties, whatever? I'm still going, everybody around here does, at least until they graduate. I'm going over to my friend Sakura's neighborhood because they give you the full and king-size candy bars, not the little dinky things. I got my costume today... dragon geisha, I think it's called. I'm going to freeze in it, so I need UnderArmor. I'll post pictures one of these days, but probably not until after Halloween, when I have makeup and stuff on.
And! And! About a week before Halloween, I'm marching in the Halloween parade in New Brighton. There are a whole bunch of bands there and everyone dresses up in their costumes. We get really, really cold, but it looks nice.
*puts on the Monster Mash and basks in the joy that is Halloween*

Wow. You're going to have fun! We don't really do that much for Halloween. A few of my friends might come round to mine (or me to one of theirs) and we might do a bit of an anime dress-up type thing and watch DVDs, but beyond that not much.
'Sides which I've got a university Open Day on the 31st, so I'll be going to Liverpool (where I did the two summer schools) for the day, though I'll be back in the evening.
Pictures are a must! Your costume sounds cool. ^_^

Yeah, it does!! You gotta post pictures. Now, for my costume, I'm going as a Japanese school girl, promoting a site while I'm at it. To make the story short, I went to the Anime Convention last May (anyone going in 2007?) and signed up for Shira Oka Second Chances, which is a computer game in progress. I've been a regular since their boards have been active. They posted the bio's for the girls (they're right on the top of the main screen) and I had this really good idea to go as Ionue Suzu, and they gave me permission. There is definatly going to be pictures posted when I get them, as well as homecoming pictures from last month. And no, I'm only spraying my hair green. And you're not the only one who is going to freeze, Ru, as I can only really wear knee high socks to warm myself up...... No trick-or-treating for me, not in that skirt. I'll just hand out candy at my grandparents house.

Nice, Shira! You have to post pictures, too.
The great thing about my costume is that I can wear it to the Tekko (it's an anime convention in Pittsburgh) in March, if I can't find the big red coat I'll need to go as Edward Elric. *giggles* That's why I like my hair. I can braid it and go Ed-style. xD
A lot of my friends aren't going this year, either. That makes me sad. But we managed to round up a big group to go together. Well, Masaya-kun didn't actually agree... but he's going. Whether he knows it or not. Even if we have to tie him to a chair and dress him up as Ichigo from TokyoMewMew (which would actually be kinda fun).

I definatly will! As soon as I can get on photobucket again ((school blocks it)) I'll post one picture for sure, with the promise of more to come.
And I can wear my costume at ACEN, to help promote the site more and everything, and hopefully get on Okashi Studio's good side.
Tying people to chairs is fun.... Shh...

*is impressed* ^_^
One of my friends (the wonderful artist) was saying this morning that she has just about everything she'd need to cosplay Witch Hunter Robin (if any of you know of that...) if she can only find some way of doing the hair.
I'm now wondering what I should do if we decide to meet up and watch DVDs after all. ^_^
*dances*

This an open discussion? =o I am psyched for Halloween! ^^ I'm gonna be a pirate just like everyone else; my twin sister is going to be a mafia gangster(<--picture of her in her costume!), and one of my best friends is going to be a geisha. Today we took alot of pictures of the three of us in our "rejected" costume ideas: vampires. We each had a gorgeous velvet gown (or in my case it was a short EGL looking dress) and we made ourselves up all pretty and took loads of pictures. ^^ I'll have to post them when I get them, if anyone is interested. Oh yeah, and after I go trick-or-treating (19 is NOT too old! D=< ) with my friends then we are going to have a party in the basement of my best guy friend. =3

Honestly I am going as a left over. Yes, a left over. I am wrapping myself in foil and plastic wrap. Shira is putting "Expired 1969" on my forehead. I think that is the most original {and cheap} costume I am going to do/have ever done. Where we {Shira and I } are going, I have no idea, actually. We might be going to our Daddy Pete's place, or trick/treating {that never gets old} or to my friend, Todd's house. As long as I can get a "candy" high, I don't care where I go...

Everything's open unless very loudly stated otherwise, Abunai. ^_^
Your costumes all sound cool (though the mafia gangster link doesn't seem to work...). I still haven't worked out what to wear.
Though it's looking like I'll be meeting up with two friends this Saturday to do the whole DVD watching thing again. ^_^ Possibly.

Tonight Ru gets to go freeze her bejeebers off in a Halloween parade. And what is the temperature going to be? Twenty degrees. And what is Ru wearing? A dress. Sorta thing. Made of silk.
Ru is going to freeze.
Ru is having fun talking in third person.

Lali hopes Ru didn't freeze completely. Fingers are needed for typing...

Fingers are needed for typing.
It's supposed to be 50 degrees or something like that, so it isn't that bad for Shira. Shira gets to wear a knee high skirt, knee high socks, loafers, and a blouse. But she gets to spray her hair green! ^^

Muahahahaaaa... I helped a friend of mine dress as a vampire for her school hosted haunted house (and I also helped her decorate), and when we were practicing the makeup we all three (Abunai Bijin, myself and my friend) dressed as vampires and had an impromptu photo shoot... wanna see? (I only have one of myself and my friend posted on deviant art, but Abunai has one of herself on her myspace...)

I still have fingers! Yay! *wiggles*
A friend of mine, Olivia, did my makeup really well. She did my lips up nice, and put these weird things on my eyes... I never use makeup. Only for Living Stations at church, which involves coating it on so thick that you use practically an entire case of foundation. xD
TOMORROW IS HALLOWEEN! YAY!

I'll post pictures as soon as I find my dad's camera.
LALI. Oh my goodness. My friend Sakura was dressed up as a freak, because it was raining and she didn't want to ruin her kimono. I was walking behind her, and she had this black cape/coat sorta thing on that sort of blew out behind her when she walked. AND SHE LOOKED LIKE THE VICOMTE. I started cracking up and she had no idea what was going on.
Meanwhile, we sang songs and people called us the "Halloween Carolers" and gave us extra candy because they liked our enthusiasm. I looked like a geisha from the dead because all of my makeup ran in the rain. xD
