Title: Halloween 2008

Did anyone do anything for Halloween this year??
If so, what did you do and if you dressed up post pictures if you have any! :D
I had three days of Halloween. XD
The first day (Wednesday) I went to my mom's work and passed out candy to little kids at an event called "Trunk or Treat". My mom is one of the directors at a preschool and basically what you do is bring your car up to the parking lot, then decorate the trunk and then little kids go from car to car and get candy from you.
Heres what ours looked like:


I decorated the majority of it myself. XDDD
All the parents loved my hair and kept asking how I did it. XD
The second day was Halloween at my college. Every year they have a huge celebration for Halloween with various activities and free food. Unfortunately all my classes were during the majority of the festival so I missed most of it. However, we had our own Halloween day in my Gothic and Horror Literature class. This is how I dressed for it:

I know it looks like Mana cosplay (stuff I've done before) mostly, but I had fangs in too. The inspiration was a mix between Mana and the story "Carmilla".
Finally tonight I went out with a friend in the area she lives in. We went around town in costumes, out for sushi, and then to the movies to see The Haunting of Molly Hartley. Not that great of a movie (the ending was terrible!!), but I think we still managed to have a really great time! (^^)
Pictures of tonight:


She was trying to be Hello Kitty. I felt kinda sorry for her because there were a lot of other costumes she REALLY wanted to do and was seriously going to put a lot of time and effort into them, but they didn't work out so late last night she decided to do Hello Kitty and couldn't find ANYTHING for it. ): I didn't think it was such a big deal though. Halloween is about having fun more than anything. XD

I didnt do anything for Halloween myself though. Because we dont have it here, sadly enough.

I took my little brother and sister to a kids Halloween disco. I gotta say it was pretty epic XD
My sister had me up dancing with her! She's only 5 and we were jumping about to Ghostbusters theme XDDD

I don't really like halloween, so I spend most the day playing WoW as per norm.

Wow Sarah! *-*
Looks so cool! <33
How can you make your hair like that?! Do you put 23625692 bottles of hairspray? XD
We don't have halloween either in Finland .___.
But I noticed on friday that people had costumes on in school. It was nice I think ^^~
Some boy had spilled fake blood all over his clothes. A couple of girls from my class were scared (lol XD), but I was like "whoa! blood! >8D"

ManaVampire you're picture are beautiful.
I didn't do anything at halloween just bought a collection dvd of Paradise Kiss and watch it ^^.
In Sweden we don't celebrat halloween as you guy's do in America ^^
:dix: :mana: :dix: :mana: :dix: :mana2: :heart:
ManaVampire - November 3, 2008 04:52 AM (GMT)
Thanks!!
Its really a shame so many of you don't get the chance to celebrate.
I think Halloween is really the only major thing in America I really look forward to. XD
SecretRoseGarden> You have to watch my youtube video to learn how to do it!! XD
It really doesn't take that much hairspray if you do it right. I would say half a bottle at most (but as I'm sure you can imagine, hairspray goes quickly at my house). XD
SecretRoseGarden - November 3, 2008 03:50 PM (GMT)
ManaVampire> Ooh! I watched the video! Now I understand better! And it doesn't look so hard than I tought!
The Mana hair you make is so great! ^^~
(btw, in that video around 4:00 what is the song!? XD I know I have heard it, but I can't make up the name...)
And yes, somehow it is sad that we don't have halloween here. But I think it has become more popular than some years ago. So maybe someday we will celebrate halloween in here too XD

You know that i am dying to see another lithuanian's cosplay, so, pleaase, do it, i know you will look very great because your features are similar to Mana's :D Beast of Blood Mana would be perfect for you.
porcelainmaiden - November 5, 2008 01:45 AM (GMT)
I actualy am going to do a Beast of Blood cosplay for Sakuracon '09.
There are some others doing a Kozi and Yuki cosplay (I dont know what era though) so I am happy!
I have a good wig, I wsh I could use my normal hair, but I dont have a fringe. Like in my photos, my hair is so long, but no bangs!!!
