This year I am gonna wear my friend's cheerleading uniform from high school. I am so stoked. My sorority always has a Halloween crush party, and all the fraternities have house parties. This year, the kids at one of the local elementary schools is coming trick-or-treating on the afternoon of the 30th, so we get to dress up then. By far the most comfortable costume ever was when I went as a doctor. I borrowed my friend's scrubs, and it was like wearing pajamas! (I am big on the borrowing from friends thing b/c it's CHEAP!!!) In 11th grade, me and my friends won a costume contest as the Spice Girls. We looked awesome! Of course we had been planning since like July. On a different note, I am so sick of seeing Britney Spears/naughty Catholic school girl thing!! EVERYONE has done that for the last 2 years. It is so played out! Let's see some creativity, folks!

Last year, I wore an old white tuxedo from 1973 i got for 10 bucks at goodwill, and wore the biggest pair of aviator sunglasses i could find at star market . . . it was a sick costume, and since it was trashy i could just spill on it and keep on rollin' . . .

I'm still working this year's costume idea, i don't know if ALF will work out, i need a contingency plan.

Okay, you want something *ORIGINAL*? My sophomore year of high school, I dressed up as Casey Becker from SCREAM (the character at the beginning that Drew Barrymore played--the one that got gutted & hung), rather than just the Ghostface Killer Costume, u know? I bought everything seperate...an off-white sweater (a cheap one from Wal-Mart) that I spread fake blood all over, a short blonde wig, and a toy phone that would ring when u press a button on it. So I wore the sweater, a pair of jeans I already had, a pair of tennis shoes, and put on the wig.

It looked so awesome! Like I was "bleeding" everywhere! And I hung one arm around a little tree in my front yard to make it look like I was hanging (I scared a few little kids like that---they didn't want any candy from ME lol!). Then I made the "phone" ring and I answered it...oh yeah and I had the Scream "knife" and had it laying in the grass near me to make it look as though someone had cut me LOL!!!

Okay, to clarify: I was Britney my JUNIOR year. I got a little confused cuz I've had a costume party every year since sixth grade. Sorry 'bout that.

My guy friends always come up with random costume ideas... one year, my friend Jon went as a keg- he spraypainted a trashcan silver, cut out the bottom, and attached straps so it covered his body, and tied a tap to his head. It was great...

Another time, my friend Kent went as a flasher. He wore a brown trenchcoat and rigged this contraption inside to that when he opened the coat, a giant stuffed tube sock protruded out like 2 feet (he wore tighty-whities undeneath). I think he had a length of fishing line attached to the inside of his sleeve, so he could control where the tube-sock-penis went- like he stuck it in the cheetos bowl or something. Whatever. He's weird.

The other cool costume I saw was a girl in my hometown. She had gotten one of those cone things they put aound dog's necks to keep them from eating their stitches, except it was clear, and had put it around her neck, dressed in silver, and put a weighted green balloon in the cone- she was a martini! Great costume but she had to drink from a funnel all night cause she couldn't drink normally.

Have fun!

Okay, for the Panhellenic Halloween Party last night (we handed out candy to Professors' kids from the chapter rooms), I dressed as a Girl Scout. I wore a button-up, collared, white shirt; a pair of plaid shorts that said "Camp Sycamore Hills" (a Girl Scout Camp I worked at this summer); a bandana on my head that said "Camp Sycamore Hills"; my hair in two braids, and finally, I wore one of my old Girl Scout vests (the one from when I was a Junior G.S.). It was hilarious cuz the vest hadn't been worn since I was 12, and it was obviously quite small on me. It had all my badges and pins on it though, and it was really cute. My inspiration for that was the advertisement for Corky Ramano obviously.

I still don't know what to wear for the Pike and SAE Parties this weekend, though.

Last year I was half of Kriss Kross (don't ask me why, it seemed like a good idea at the time), and this year I think I'm going to be Hugh Hefner, but I'm not sure. THe thing is, I may need two costumes - I work at a preschool as a teacher, and I have to come in dressed up, but it wouldn't be appropriate to come in as Hugh Hefner, so I've gotta find something easy and cheap to dress up in for the hour I'm at work before I can get into my real costume.

IowaHawkeye · #40 10-25-2001, 05:21 PM

I know what youre saying.... I'm probably being "Hit me baby one more time Britney" (like she's a barbie or something

) but I have a Dance Marathon event tomorrow where I get tocarve pumpkins and play mummy wrap and other fun games with the kids stuck in the hospital recieving treatment. I don't think Brittney is appropriate - so I'll probably be a farmer.... anyone have any better (easy and fast!) ideas?

HeavenslilAngel · #41 10-26-2001, 03:42 PM

I'm going as a clown. The best, most original costume I ever had was my Mrs. Doubtfire costume. I wore one of my grandmaw's old dresses and a hat and it was fun.

Hugh Hefner, huh? Silk pajamas, Viagra, bubbleheads?

After weeks and weeks of agonizing over a costume and after trips to vintage clothing and antique stores, I found a costume and it only cost me 17 bucks.

It is a blue flowered dress straight out of the Bradys, got the white scarf and earings to go with it. I'll get to wear it out tonite to a costume party.

I also might go out tom in pajama pants, a tank, slippers and with my teddy bear - what a comfy "costume."

Last year - I found these wild red pants with black splatters on them, paired them with a black halter and stuck a cowboy hat on my head - wha la a girl from coyote ugly. Oh year I had the big hair and belt too.

So, the friday night before our saturday Halloween party I went to bed trying to think of a costume, so naturally I awake Saturday morning with the perfect idea. My consul is engaged to our sweetheart, and he got for her the phattest diamond ring, which we all make fun of because we want to beat her up, take it, and pawn it...but nevertheless. She's a XO, and though she is REALLY REALLY into it, she's just as in to Sigma Chi. I go to our consul's (Gene's) place to see if he has any of her XO apparel lying around, telling him I'm dressing as this girl, when to my surprise, our sweetheart (Beth) is sitting there. Words exchanging, she takes me back to her place to outfit me as a XO.

So now, dressed entirely in her well-recognized style, with a wig relative to her, with her bra and appropriate size, with her bag, jewlry, lavalier, a fake plastic HUGE diamond ring, and a mask I'd made from a photo at Kinko's, I was Beth...and my good buddy whom I dress up with each year dressed as my Gene, sweater around his neck, mask, and looking just like Gene, sporting the letters all proudly. Though my description is too boring to portray the absolute comedy of it. I had the worst time getting into the party because for the first 25 minutes, I was constantly in pictures, the 4 of us...both Beth's, and both Gene's.
--------
Some more interesting costumes for ideas for you guys that were at our party.
A TV-style box on your head with an opening, above which is written "Free Mamograms." Osama paired with a military person, running around with a watergun shooting at Osama with a red, nonstaining liquid. Everyone besides Osama that you hit is a civilian casuality. Bronzed Greek Gods. Drunk couch guy with shirt ripped with hilarious things drawn on him like a penis on his chin, pledge bitch witten...just lotsa derogatory stuff written in permanent marker, basically...things you'd do to a drunk guy passed out on the couch. JFK with a bullet to the head, with his marilyn monroe. Lots of our guys look like famous people, so we had several people just dress accordingly..Enrique Iglesias and Fred Durst are two I immeadiately think of.
--------
Continuing. That night was among the elite of most drunken nights ever, I won every challenge to chugging beer faster...a night of fufilled stereotypes, I guess. But at some odd twist-in-fate point, I began making out with this girl, who is very attractive, granted, but not someone whom I'd otherwise engage..know what I mean? Anyway. I was conscious enough to realize we were messing around, nothing as bad as my future roomie whom was told a girl actually went down on him on the dance floor(note: he did not remember it at all), but I'm told on Sunday that my buddy who was watching us kissing saw that she was rubbing on my fake breast, like caressing it. Crazy shit, I dare say. His description was that without using her mouth, she was playing with my fake chest as much as he (known player) has ever played around with a girls chest. I cannot testify as I was only there in body and not mentally. Never puked that night, but took care of lots of people who did. The place it is at is really funny. I've been there 4 or 5 times, and it's supposedly really close, but I have no clue where it is because I've been obiliterated everytime I've gone, and close to passing out everytime I've come home. I would guess only 1/3 of our chapter knows where it is...and they that's only because they most always stay sober to drive.
--------
Lose my keys that night somehow, and spend the hours between 4 (when I woke up) and 7 with the worst hangover ever, eating about 5 tylenol extra strengths, looking for my keys everywwhere, the search only began after my roomie asks me if I found them.....the conversation:
EB: Find your key's?
Me: Did I lose them?
EB: You called me last night around 4:30 telling me you did, after I'd been asleep for a couple of hours

It was comical, but someone had found them at the party location, so I got them back at meeting (THANK GOD)

Crazy Weekend!

My weekend wasn't as crazy, but all in all a good time.

Friday night, in the halloween tradition we rent and watch Hannibal (or try to watch - there are some scenes that are a little disturbing to say the least) All in all though good movie. I went to a friends Halloween bash, stayed sober for driving reasons but had fun - no costumes blew me away - until the party Sat night.

I loved my costume so much I went back to the vitage store to find another 70s dress - found a swirly patterned dress straight out of laugh in or something a fembot from austin powers would wear.

So we start out at a party - my friend as Britney in our old catholic grade school uniform slightly modified. We get to the party and see some awesome costumes

tiger woods - in Nike apparel, a white man with alot of face and body makeup carrying a golf club
the best was my friends brother and his friend who made an entrance - one in army fatigues, riding in a wheel chair, with a blanket over his legs and a black long wig he is being pulled by a man in a lawn tractor decked out inred suspenders and a grey sweater and an authentic bubba gump hat - it was great.

later go to my friends house who is freaking out over what to be we make her a hula girl with skirt tank and leis and head off to have a nice day cafe, a few minutes later Britney has found her self a ken doll and has attached her self to this hottie, he had a cute friend - an awesome dancer that kept me entertained - so in between dancing and drinking - they passed out free tequila shots. we had a good time - within an hour ken and britney were attached at the lips on the dance floor - so you know she had a good night.

some costumes there -

the mammpgram box, eighties prom queens from hell, nuns, doctors, the usual

Ill try to put up pics when they come in if I can go back home and use our scanner !
