Halloween Costumes

You guys sicken me. The day after Halloween, and still no thread asking for descriptions or embarrasing pictures of other people's costumes? Honestly.

So, how about descriptions or embarrasing pictures? You know you want to.

Me, well. The whole "Vampire or Grotesque Monster?" thing got tiring, so instead I decided to go to a party dressed in a full wetsuit, snorkling mask, flippers, the works. It was actually pretty damn hilarious - walked into the co-op to buy some stuff, and for some strange reason, they all thought I was crazy. Got myself a crowd, too.

As i walked down the street, cars were slowing down and allsorts just to stare at me and my mate Paul, who was Bubblewrap/Tinfoil/Clingfilm man for the night. Awesome costumes. Picture later, if you're all good.

Oh, and never try snorkling in an apple-bobbing bowl. Seriously.

My Mortal Kombat bribery paid off.

Went to a friend's gig, The Bobby McGees, this Halloween. Behold their weird costumes and face paint:

King and Queen of the Ukelele (no, really!), Jimmy and El

My mate Frankie, the drummer

Graeme, Frankie's boyfriend, on double bass

They were so brilliant I bought a CD and T-shirt, which I am wearing now.

I dressed up as Guybrush Threepwood from the second Secret of Monkey Island game. If I think about it later when I'm home, I'll post some pictures up.

Well, being the type of person I am, I didn't really make too much of an effort to be honest, instead just nunning it up. Have some photies:

// I can't remember who this person was, but he was ace
// The scariest thing all night. Four lads from another hall nearby (Nicholson I think)
// Andrew as the Phantom of the Opera and...Dale
// Pete
// Me and Katie

But yeah - was a really good night. Went out to a local nightclub and threw around some glowsticks. Ole!

I was a werewolf for the second year in a row. I just sat on the porch and handed out candy to the passing trick or treaters...but it was awfully fun intimidating them with my exterior, and 'werewolf voice'. I think Halloween (next to summer) is the most fun time of year.

Trust me, I would love to post a few of the pictures of myself in my costume, but my computer isn't quite letting me do that. I'll describe it then, even though a picture can usually speak louder than words.

All I needed was black makeup. Color my nose black, make my eyebrows appear thicker, my beard looks like fur, and a pair of plastic fangs. Then some careless use of mousse and blow drying in my hair. A lot of the younger trick or treaters were to afraid and/or intimidated to approach me(even for candy). Wow.

On the subject of costumes, I went to a fancy dress party last Friday and went as a pirate

I think it looked quite good too!

I was a dandy for Halloween... looked a lot like the Glamorous Vampire Outfit (if anyone remembers that stupid thing, hah) but with short hair, and a lack of girlyness. So I wore a looser frilly blouse, no jewelry, and prince pants instead of a dress. And I had a pocketwatch =D Unfortunately nobody knew what a dandy was and I was depressed. They were a revolution in personal hygeine, isn't that important?! ;___;

I wanted to be a ganguro/yamamba (I even have a Photoshopped prototype...), but I couldn't get all the makeup and blond wig needed. And I don't know how I'm going to manage making Edward look like that. But... next year...!! It will be the spookiest getup ever. *plans next year's Halloween*

NurseFin still reigns as my best costume, though ^_~ And I put it together in 30 minutes! How 'bout that?

-Dies.- ... So cuteee~.

Anyway, I dressed up as a sort of Vampiric character for Halloween, but I went to a Nightclub and stuff. My hair was spiked up, and I sprayed it red with this washout dye stuff. I whited up my face, and made myself look all scary and whatever. I also had this red lipstick, for reasons I forget.

Anyways, when I got there, I had a lot of people asking me who I was, but I pretty much pulled off the Vampire routine, so, yay! - My little brother said I looked like a transvestite serial killer from some weird manga, so... I guess I was good at being scary, no~?

I'll try and find a picture, since a few people took them of me and my friends, but they haven't seemed to be uploaded or anything yet! ;.;
