“This is Halloween”

   Today is Halloween, my official favorite holiday! I am super excited. Tonight I am going trick-or-treating with my mom’s friend’s son. It is a tradition that my friends and I take him every year. I think he likes it because he (a fifth grader) gets to be followed around by a posse of high school girls. My favorite part of Halloween is the costumes. (I of course love the parties and candy too, but costumes are the best) I always look for what I am going to be the next year for Halloween while I’m trick-or-treating, and then promptly forget all about it until September the next year. This year nothing stuck out to me as my next costume, but that is ok because I had already compiled a list.


1. Snow White- I got a pattern for an adult sized Snow White costume the other day and am seriously considering being her next year. This is mostly because I am going to work at Disney World when I grow up and be her.


2. Lady Gaga- as I also aspire to grow up and be Lady Gaga, she is a serious contender in my next year costume race. Her outfits, however, may be too on the unscrupulous side for me to wear around children. To solve this problem I plan on having a Lady Gaga party on March 28th (her birthday).


3. Ballerina- I used to want to grow up and be a ballerina (I see a common theme here), but gave up on my dream when I realized I sucked a ballet. I still want to wear a tutu though.


   These are my main contenders for next year’s Halloween, but I am sure to change my mind a thousand times. I saw only one truly awesome costume whilst trick-or-treating tonight, Darth Vader Banana.


If a girl puts a sprig of rosemary herb and a silver sixpence under her pillow on Halloween night, she will see her future husband in a dream. (I would try this, but I have no idea where to get a silver sixpence. I will make it a quest and try next year)
