Halloween Costumes Of The Past

I put more thought into my Halloween costumes than my homework.

Halloween Costumes Of The Past

Mulan

I was in the third or fourth grade and had an obsession with Disney movies, but in particular, Mulan. She is one of the few Disney female characters that isn’t a princess and is stronger than most man. This Halloween was one of my favorite because my outfit was authentic. My kimono was a gift from my cousin who had visited Japan. I wore a black wig that was extremely itchy and my mother painted my face white. This paint became hard making it hard to move my face. The best part of this Halloween was that I won the costume contest for my grade.


Ladybug


Elmo


Sleeping Beauty


Viking

At my high school, it was uncommon for students to dress up for Halloween. But my junior year I decided to dress up as a Viking. My dad went to Halloween City and picked up the costume, but I borrowed it for the day. It consisted of a hat, a vest, fur pants and boots. It was one of the more comfortable costumes I have ever worn!

Pumpkin


Spongebob Squarepants


Clown: Before the creepy clown epidemic…


Pink Lady

When my mom graduated high school in 1979, the big movie that was in theaters was Grease. This movie was always playing in my house so I got to the point that I knew the movie inside and out. I admired the Pink Ladies, so when Halloween rolled around in 7th grade, that was precisely what I was. I ordered a Pick Ladies jacket off of the internet, wore black jeans and black boots. Wearing the outfit, I felt like I was a part of the movie. That costume will forever be one of my favorites.

Tiger


Hippie


Witch

When witches go riding and black cats are seen. The moon laughs and whispers ‘tis near Halloween”!


I hope everyone had a spooktacular Halloween (:

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
