Nov. 2nd, 2008 05:43 pmOk, best costumes I saw on Halloween:
Grapes (she had a bunch of purple balloons attached to her, and it was totally impractical because she couldn't fit into a desk in class and had a ridiculously hard time taking notes, but it was still awesome)
Banana
Space
Flamingo (the guy had on this foam flamingo head attached to his head and wore a pink bathroom and I thought it was pretty awesome)
Violin (this one was super cool. She had a dress that was brown-ish and the front looked exactly like a violin, it was like... embroidered and such, and there were strings along the front, and then she had the top part of a violin broken off and attached to her head. It was awesome)
Unicorn (this was a guy, and for some reason it was necessary for him to wear a women's negligee as part of the costume. I have no idea. But it was awesome.)
Kaylee from Firefly
Quail Man from Doug (Doug! That show was so awesome)
Waldo from Where's Waldo
(There were a ridiculously large amount of people who dressed up for Halloween. I mean, I shouldn't really be surprised because college kids tend to love anything that means free food and parties, but still. It's kind of funny how, for the most part, it seems like trick-or-treating and dressing up and all that is way more common in college than in high school.)
Anyways. Last week with the two tests on one day was rather crappy, but I have basically nothing major the next two weeks, which is awesome. I just have a German test this Friday (which, whatever, I've gotten As on every single test so far, this shouldn't be any different). I should write a reaction paper tonight (we have to do 3 total this semester, and I've done 1 so far, and there are only like 4 more articles to write about) and I have a little Research in Psych homework to finish up, but that shouldn't take too long. I might go to an Al Franken rally later to see Al Franken speak, but I'm not sure. It depends on how much I get done and if I feel as lazy as I do now.
I totally actually cleaned my room a little on Saturday! I've only been meaning to forever! Well, I finally finished unpacking my suitcase (from TWO WEEKS ago. ugh. I fail), but my desk is still a mess, I need to empty my trashcan, and I have papers scattered everywhere on the floor. But it's progress! I also still haven't put up the Moulin Rouge and Amelie posters I bought at that poster sale in September. That'll be my goal this weekend, I guess! Or maybe even this week, since I should have more time this week than I have the past few weeks. I also have filled out my major plan, although I still need to talk it over with someone in the psych department and get the necessary parts signed and all that. And I still haven't switched advisers, but I might just wait until after registration. Or until next semester. I haven't really decided yet. Registration is less than two weeks away! ugh. I mostly know what I'm going to do, but I have no idea what I want for my fourth class. Like, I really should do something that either fulfills the Multiculturalism or Internationalism requirements because those are my last two general ed requirements and I need to get them done. But for some reason my school chooses not to post which classes actually fulfill these requirements until the start of the next semester which really doesn't help me when I'm trying to figure out what counts for the requirements NOW. And I have some idea of some classes that should fulfill the requirements because they did last year and all, but there's pretty much only one or two classes I'm remotely interested in that fulfill either requirement, and they conflict with classes I'm already planning on taking. sigh. Registration was so much less stressful last year when I could just take pretty much whatever I wanted.
I can't believe the election is in only two days. I mostly think Obama is going to win (which is saying something because I'm a total pessimist), but I'm still really nervous. I'm looking forward to the election being over.
