Plans for Halloween?

*Chez Daja* · 10-04-2006, 12:28 PM

YAAAY! Halloween is almost here again!

If you really know me that well, you'll know I absolutely adore this time of year. There's just an air of mysterious but traditional, old-timey feel about it!

In fact, October is probably my favourite month of the year plannly because I feel excellent throughout it -- (most years anyway.)

For me, Halloween is a celebration of the dead, something I take a lot of time to do at this time of the year. Having most of my friends be stoners and alcoholics with suicidal tendency basically means a new death for me to "celebrate" each year.

...Okay, so that's a little ****ed up. But still, Halloween is a great time to sit inside and read a good book, go out and explore cemetrarys and go on an exploreation in the forest. It's funny. I've almost died a few Halloween's in a row, within exception of Last year when I stayed in most of the day looking after my brother and chatting with my boyfriend. Yarr.

So what are your plans for Halloween?

Halloween is fun! For this year I think I might hang out with my friends. We might go walk around town and maybe collect candy. I doubt I will be dressing up, but I am thinking about painting my face really cool/creepy. Only I dont really have any ideas. >_<

What do you think most of us will be doing this Halloween?!(sarcasm not ment to offend) Playing FFXII!!!! Well hopefully some of us can hold off for one more day.

One halloween I bought a material to make a bomberman costume which consisted of: white panty hose, a blue leatard, and a few other none female clothes. I actually put the costume on a couple of times but never went outside of my house with it on.

I have this one Idea though, it involves a hoola hoop, a bald cap, and a whole lot of plastic wrap. Can anyone figure it out?

Well, this is what I usually do every year: Dress up in some outfit that doesn't really cover my arms and looks bad with every jacket/sweater I own, so my arms are freezing. Wear uncomfortable shoes that make my feet hurt after five minutes. Do some fancy hairdo that took me 2 hours to do. And walk around with my mom and sis allowing people to put candy into whatever bag/bucket I can find.

This year it will probably be: Dress up in some outfit that will freeze my shoulders off. Straighten my hair, put on light make-up, and walk around with some of my family allowing the people of our neighborhood to put candy into whatever bag/bucket I can find. Go home, and eat candy until I get a major sugar high and my mother yells at me to stop.

LOL

Well, I have 2 plans. Sorta.

The 28th and 30th I have Halloween parties to go to, and I have plans to go as "V" from the film V for Vendetta. That will probably include a lot of drinking and a lot of card games. Same as always.

On the 31st, I plan on picking up my copy of Final Fantasy XII, and playing the daylights out of it for about a week or so. I took a week of vacation for that.

So yeah, good times that Halloween is. I am excited atleast.

LionheartVIII · 10-04-2006, 07:06 PM

Well first things first, Im going to pick up my copy of FFXII. Ill probably save it for another day though since its Holloween and I have other things to do like watch scarry movies and eat all the candy. Mmmm...reeces.

I recently bought Fatal Frame's 2 and 3 so I probably will end up getting a bit farther into those. I may have a friend or two over as well. Before it gets really late Ill probably be out with my friends or something.

Well thats all I have planned.

My mom is forcing me to hand out candy to the kiddies this year while my other friends get to go collecting. I'm going to dress up still, maybe something really bloody.

It's also tradition I go to every haunted house in the area with my gang.

On Halloween night I plan to just sit down with my fiancee and play Final Fantasy XII all night while drinking the new Candy Corn Jones Soda flavor (only at Target) which is awesome.

Oh and on other days before that, I play to do to some Adventure Fright dome thing with lots of scary rides and hauted houses.

Melanie · 10-06-2006, 03:33 PM

**** the Frightdome. Go to The Asylum by the Meadows mall (if you don't know where that is, it's Meadows and Valley View.). It's supposed to be one of the best in the country, or so I hear. I had friends that worked in the Adventuredome for a while before the VRZ (Virtual Reality Zone) closed down. No more IIDX in Vegas. I'm still mad at CC for closing it down.

My Halloween, well, the weekend anyway. I might be going to California. Disneyland on Nevada day = NO PEOPLE. If not, I'm not sure. My Halloweens are very random. One moment I'll be sitting home on my couch and within a few hours, I'll be far away from where I originally was, with a lot more people. Huzzah!

Cheesevixen · 10-06-2006, 06:11 PM

I sadly have NO plans for halloween. Maybe go out for a few drinks with some friends an dress up, but other than that we aint going to big for it. I am thinking I want to be a Star Trek medical nurse from the first episodes, Alice In Wonderland, or I could just get on a sheet with holes on it. XD

Halloween is also a day for lots of CANDY! An I am going to eat lots of it. I don't really like sweets at all, but for Halloween I will make an exception.

*Maridia* · 10-06-2006, 10:14 PM

Welll...

I actually have the day off. But the people I work with who are cool are in that day. So everyone I work with is bringing in a suit to be awkward. I decided I'll do the same. So I'm gonna bring in a cheap white suit. But what makes it better is I'm gonna have a contact in one of my eyes to make them look weird...haven't decided what style yet, and I'll have that with the suit. Now for anyone who gets underlining movie referances is I'll look like Benedict. The shitty villian from Last Action Hero with Arnold. So in the end I'll be highly amused.

Yuki-onna · 10-07-2006, 12:08 AM

I want to get my hands on Silent Hill and watch it, summon an evil spirit, carve a 'nunkin, eat candy till I feel sick and bake a grandma in the oven.

That's my gig this year. I think I'm going to love Halloween...

Kinney · 10-07-2006, 03:39 AM

Hahaha I want to be a child again, so I asked these kids from the block that if me and my friends could go with them and ask for candy[even thought I hate candy except for chocolate] and they said yes. I also want to go to "his" house just to make a quick visit now that I know he is staying at home that day so i can keep him some company and maybe talk for a while.
I already have my costume though, a fairy =).
So yeah I'm also going to school that day, no break but I <3 school.

thesorceress · 10-07-2006, 11:23 AM

I've never been to the Fightdome or the Asylum before. The reason I will go to the Frightdome is because I work at TI and they give us coupons that lets two people get in for the price of one or something. Meh, I'll be something to do. We might check out other things.

And everyone should seriously track down that candy corn soda... best Halloween treat!
