well thats what im going to do ... i dont think im too old ... im only 15, but movies will be fun because i havent seen these friends in a while and were renting not only scary ones like psycho and stuff but also scary movie 1 and 2 .. haha .. those will be great

That sucks!! I went trick or treating till I was 18!! lol
And I didn't do like the other kids that age in the neighborhood did and just walk around in street clothes and a pillowcase, No siree, I dressed up completely!!

It kind of helped that I was short!!

HALLOWEEN.... Watch that movie series!! Michael Meyers...
Classic Horror!!

i do dress up completely ... or should i say i did?? last year i went as a baby, had the pacifier, bonnet, and everything ...
and im short too ... havent grown in the past three years and i wont anymore (been told by my doctors) so im stuck at 5'2 forever ... so i wear about 5 inch heels all the time except for robotics and soccer ....

Im going to work! wooo Im sure CC will get a lot of business that night..


Aftwards im going to drive around and put a red rotating light ontop of my car if I see kids TP'ing to scare them all away...I know its illegal to do that with a light, but as long as I dont keep it on and out of the car long, I don't think i'll have a problem

Oh and i'll probably play a little paintball too if someone decides to TP my house

I don't think I am too old for trick or treating even though I am not going to this year. I much prefer going to parties which is my plan for Friday night. Haunted houses/hayrides/forests are always fun to do with friends before Halloween night. I definately enjoy being scared. I am quite excited though for Friday at school becuase the entire senior class comes in outrageous costumes. It would be nice though if I actually have a costume planned, but hopefully I can pull something off the night before.

i disagree with that... generally speaking, you dress up as something you couldn't be, but for one night, it is possible. for instance, a child dresses like a werewolf... i doubt that they wish they were that... but for one night, they can be it.
Also, I know that what I dress up as is not something I wish I could be... one year I was a blind old man, and several others a trollop... I know for a fact that I do not want to be either, its just fun to dress up and be someone else for the night.

I agree. But also, you gotta think outside of the horror movies. You see people dressed up like Brintney Spears, Marilyn Manson (I know one who did this), and other stars.

That was what I was generally referring to in my statement.

I'm dressing up as a 42 Pi Fairy this year :-D

I'm not going trick or treating, Im hanging out with friends

Normally I'd go trick or treating but this year the football game with our Rival high school, Mira Costa (Who happens to be our partner school that makes up Beach Cities Robotics) is on halloween. I gotta go and cheer, GO SEA HAWKS!!!!!!! But im going to KnottsScaryFarm the next day to make up for it. Thatll be fun!

well it looks like I don't have to work on Friday! YAY

So I guess im going to put together a costume that looks like this




Im pumped about this costume...i'll post pictures

For those of you who say you're too old for Halloween, I leave you this quote by Brian Aldiss:

When childhood dies, its corpses are called adults.

My friends and I have been talking about many group costumes. Some ideas that have been thrown around are Matrix vs. Agents (it was decided this was too cliched), Clockwork Orange Droog gang (but we did this a few weeks ago), the cast of the Rocky Horror Picture Show ( =OO!!!! ), the cast of Holy Grail, and several other ideas. However, I think with the whole SATs-on-saturday and college-apps-due-saturday things keeping us all busy, none of those ideas are going to happen =(

I think I'm just going to get a pirate hat/scimatar and wear my oldskewl Napster (1.0) shirt ;-)

A good group costume for four people that I have never been able to convince my friends to do is the 4 Horseman of the Apocolypse. There's Death, Famine, Pestilence and War. And it would be funny if they all had those little kids toys, the Horse heads on sticks, as their horses. My friends are boring and never want to do fun things like that.

man, you rock..Manson's my idol. ;o)
yeah, perhaps I'll be a female version of The Crow again...either that or I'll dress up like a man like I did for last week's costume contest on my campus.
oh wait, I have classes and choir practice tomorrow. <sigh> I guess I'll go as a nerd. I love doing that..plus I have the thick glasses, oversized shirt and pocket protecter anyway..so yeah!

I like the horsemen idea, but, imo, 2001 cast is funnier.

I am almost finished with my monolith, all it needs no is black paint. I was wearing it around earlier, and its a bit tough.

Very restricted feet travel, I put a few windows in front, and one on each side, so the veiw is more like that from a car than from a mask. No armholes, but what else are friends-in-monkey-suits for than to be a pair of hands for the monolith that gave them sentience? Its kept on by a pair of duc(t/k)-tape shoulder straps, which are working fine so far. I have enough room in there to move my arms around . . enough to get to my pockets, my face (for itching), and to pass things in and out of the windows (imagine trying to pay the ticket-booth guy, or giving my movie ticket to the ticket-taker! hahaha!)

I think this will be the craziest costume I've ever done. I love 2001, and when my friend said he was goin as HAL, I thought about which character I could choose, and decided to go monolith.

So far, we have a monkey, maybe a HAL (though he probably won't have time to make it) a Frank, and some other un-costumed louts. And myself.


I think it will be great.
