So, Halloween is just around the corner. And therefore, it's no surprise that I'm spending more cognitive energy on costume design than say, getting a job. I'm thinking this year of a plague doctor. It's more subtle than a skeleton and is way more classy than anything else, since it's a classic Venetian Masquerade get up. It also ensures that NO ONE will know what I am, keeping my obscure yet obsessive track record up. It's really sad that I have no parties to go to or people to spend the holiday with. But it's tradition damnnit! I built my own incomprehensible costumes for my entire life. Here is a quick year by year rundown as memory serves:
Senior Year: Republican for Voldemort (Basically a evil politically active supervillian- which everyone thought was Magneto, but I had a skull and a sign!)
Junior Year: Anubis (Which everyone thought was some Egyptian donkey)
Sophmore Year: Memory fails - Was I sane then? Nah.
Freshman Year: Milk jug post apocalyptic nightmare from a comic book I tried to write (which no one understood)
High School Purims
Cafeteria worker (with Gas mask and spoon), Spock, Napoleon, Osama in hiding, Grouch Marx, Demonic jester,
Elementary School: Teacher from the Black Lagoon, A Dragon (with a long tail sewed by my grandmother filled with Styrofoam peanuts), Robin hood, Haman, King Achashverosh,
Mario, Darth Vader, and some others.
So I don't know. Am I finally too adult to do this? Or will studying for the LSAT force me into maturity?
And is anyone having a Halloween party I can crash?
