week of Oct8: Monster Mash
1. What's your favorite Halloween costume? Do you still dress up for Halloween?
My favorite Halloween costume would have to be dressing up as a zombie. I looked like death (obviously). My clothes were ripped and dingy. My face was made up to where one eyeball was hanging out. My face looked as tho the flesh was peeling off. Scary. I have never been one of those girls who had to dress all sexy for Halloween. I usually dressed as something scary. I always thought that dressing up for Halloween was to scare off the evil spirits or atleast confuse them. My second, favorite costume would have to be Elvis. Yes, I am a fan and a chick who dressed as Elvis. I think I looked pretty darn good in my black wig, oversized glasses with sideburn, cape and jump suit. I wish I had a pic that I could put here but until I get a scanner, ain't gonna happen. So obviously, the answer to the second question to question 1 is yes. As a kid I really can't remember getting to get dressed up for Halloween. I remember as a little girl dressing up as a belly dancer and I remember having those plastic Halloween outfits and the mask that covered your face and a rubber band that went around the back of your head to hold them in place but what the outfits were, I can't remember. My step-mom had a real problem about developing film after she took it. So I have no photos to refer.
This year I have two ideas for what I want to be. I don't feel like sharing as it is top secret and I may change my mind. LOL.
At work, for the first time, we will be having a best costume contest.
So perhaps, I shall post a pic of whatever I dress up as.
2. Pumpkin Carving, is it fun or overrated? For me, it's overrated. I have a creative side but for some reason, carving out a pumpkin is not fun to me. I prefer to buy those plastic pumpkins that you can plug into an outlet and use them year after year.
3. What's your fav Halloween treat?
Popcorn balls, candy corn mixed with peanuts (tastes like a Payday candy bar). Carmel apples covered in peanut pieces. When I was a kid I loved jawbreakers, bubblegum, pop rocks, sour candy, wax teeth, or any wax candy. I don't know why I wasn't all hyped up about getting chocolate candy bars.
Now, it's your turn. I tag you with those 3 questions AND what are you getting into this Halloween? What will you dress up as?
♥ I belive in God and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I don't consider myself religious but I am very spiritual. I believe that God is closer to us than our own spirit.♥ I am a sinner. I am a saint. I am a work in progress. I try to be good, do good but I do stray from the path from time to time.♥ I try to be positive and sometimes it is quite difficult. I still keep trying, believing, hoping, dreaming.♥ I believe in smiling; Looking people in the eyes. I have a big ole heart. I care.♥ I am a worrier, goofball, romantic, a lover of animal, veteran and nature causes.♥ I believe in treating others with respect and dignity, having faith, rooting for the underdog, doing onto others as you want done onto yourself, telling the truth, being kind, supporting and encouraging, standing up for what I believe and value, having a sense of humor, being thankful being accountable, committed and recognizing limitations.♥ I strive to keep learning and growing.♥ I try not to judge but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't sometimes judgemental. I try to have an open mind and love all for who they are to me.♥
I love candy corn though :)
