Happy Halloween! (a day late)

My Halloween started off by getting up at 4:30 AM to study for my marine biology and ecology exams. I'm pretty sure all of the studying paid off, I walked out of both exams feeling very confident. Always a good feeling!

My mom is pretty much the coolest mom ever when it comes to holidays. She gets really into them and I always get a fun care package from her.


Inside this care package was the country edition of People Magazine which was filled with pictures of the beautiful Luke Bryan! More candy than I know what to do with it, Halloween themed cups, and it is not in the picture, but she also sent me a couple pairs of Under Armor running shorts, and a Nike dry-fit tank.


So after I got home from my fun-filled day of taking exams I decided to try and take a nap because I knew I had a long night ahead of me. About ten minutes into my nap I got woken up by a cat meowing at the top of it's lungs outside my apartment door. I'm an animal lover so of course I rushed to open the door and a black cat comes flying in! My parents have a black cat at home so I've never been superstitious or anything, but I still thought it was pretty weird that a black cat with bright orange eyes ran into my apartment on Halloween! It was scared to death and I felt bad putting it outside so I called the office at my apartment complex and asked them to put out an E-mail about a missing cat. Turns out the neighbors across from me accidentally let it out, and they were very grateful that I kept him safe for them.



Do you like my Halloween costume?! I was sooo excited to wear this costume and act minion-like! It also was super comfy which is a plus!



Does this guy have the best costume or what?! I just had to take a picture with him! So awesome. 

I had so much fun last night. I love seeing everyone's costumes out and about!


What were you for Halloween this year?
What was the most creative costume you saw?
Anyone else tired of seeing everyone dressed up like Miley?!

Halloween Sunday Social

I'm trying a Sunday Social for the first time thanks to Neely!

I am very excited about this Sunday Social because I love Halloween and all things scary! Scary movies are my favorite and I love how they play all of the classics like Halloween, and Nightmare on Elm Street on TV this time of year. I also love the not-so-scary Halloween movies like Hocus Pocus!

So here we go...

1. What was your favorite Halloween costume as a kid?
 The costume that is sticking out in my memory is Dorothy. I loved the Wizard of Oz growing up, so of course I wanted to be Dorothy. I had the sparkly ruby red speakers, and a stuffed toto in a basket! My mom didn't mess around when it came to costumes.

2. If you could go back to your childhood and dress up as something, what would it be?
  I would want to dress up as Boo from Monsters Inc. I would've made the perfect Boo, but unfortunately Monsters Inc. wasn't around when I was little.

3. What was your favorite Halloween costume as an adult?
Like I said I really liked the Wizard of Oz and clearly I still do...

(well this is awkward, I was going to post a picture of me from 2 years ago dressed up as Dorothy, but I can't find ANY pictures sooo just imagine me as an adult Dorothy)

My costume this year is definitely going to be my favorite, but I haven't worn it yet so I can't officially say it is my favorite!

4. What is your favorite Halloween candy?
Twizzlers are my all time favorite candy, but Reese pumpkins are a close second!

5. What is your favorite Halloween memory?
This is tough, mainly because I have an awful memory. I always used to love dressing up and playing Halloween games when I was in elementary school. At the end of the day we would have a parade and walk around the school while our parents took millions of pictures.

6. What is your favorite scary movie?
My favorite scary movie is definitely Halloween because it is such a classic. Only the old version though, the new version just isn't the same. I know this isn't in the question but my least favorite scary movie is the grudge. I watched this with a bunch of friends for the first time when I was in 7th grade and I still have nightmares to this day. I am TERRIFIED of the grudge and that terrible noise it makes.

Stay tuned for my awesome Halloween costume later this week!
