Hallo-fricken-ween


Halloween, in my opinion, is by far the best holiday. Come on you get to dress up and be someone different, you get to go door to door saying "Trick-or-Treat" and get free candy, you get an excuse to party, and get to scare little kids.
Ever since I was little Halloween was a big holiday for my family. When most families decorate their houses for Christmas, my family decorate for Halloween. My dad has made a haunted house in the front yard, he plays pranks and scares all the teenagers. He has hung mannequins in the tree to make them look dead, he has hooked up a coffin to electronically make it up so my brother could pop out of it. My dad likes to go all out. When I was younger my dad drove a hurse for his car and he took me and all my friends out for trick-or-treating and let us all pile in and out of it.
Every year I dress up with cool costume I come up with and make. I have dressed up every year since I was 5 and have only bought 3 costumes EVER. When I was younger I was the Energizer Bunny one year, Timon (from The Lion King), Reggie Rocket (from the Nickelodeon show Rocket Power) and so many other crazy things. Last year, my best friend and I couldn't think of what to be and out of no where Thing 1 and Thing 2 (from The Cat In The Hat) popped in my head, and that's what we were.
This Halloween I was an army girl (that was one the 3 costumes I have ever bought). My friends and I had a crazy fun Halloween. We all went to Westminster to party hard. It was such a blast. I love hanging out with my friends and seeing every one's cool costumes. There was a pink Power Ranger, a Justin Timberlake, a cowboy, an Obama campaigner, a Snow White, and a group of guys made the Mario Cart characters (there was Peach, Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Yoshi). It was so much fun. Every seems to still get way into dressing up.
Because of the fun everyone seems to have, all the differnet things going on, and how much eeryone seems to get into it, Halloween has aways been my favorite hoiday. I will always go way out for Halloween no matter how old I get. It seems to being my family close; and I don't have to wait for Christmas to do that.
So people who don't like or celebrate Halloween, they should really give it a chance, it's a blast!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN
