Costume party

I thought it was a costume party,” stammered Terence. Terence was a very absent minded, forgetful boy. People say he is so forgetful that it’s freaky. “ No Terence, I said it was a pajama party,” Sally chuckled, laughing at his Batman costume. “ Oh… okay I’ll be right back,” Terence sprinted his cape whooshing in the wind as the Dark Knight vanished down the street. Terence was always a good kid, but due to his memory that is extremely bad, his academics fell short. Since his academics fell short he really wasn’t allowed to go out and hang out with friends, or participate in sports, so he really wasn’t popular at school. This was the first party he was ever invited to a party, and his mother allowed him to go, so he was pretty excited.Terence got ready for the party… again…

headed to one of the biggest Halloween parties in the county. Chip dressed up as a mechanic, and Zander went as a zombie based from the television show, The Walking Dead. Their mother had given them strict instructions to be home by midnight as she wanted to ensure they would make it home safe before the night became too crazy. Even though the boys were having a great time dancing, eating junk food, and drinking fruit punch, they respected their mother’s request and slowly began saying their…

When we see the word “Halloween”, what do we actually think of? I assume most of us automatically ponder about candy, costumes, pumpkins, and parties right? But have we ever actually thought of why some of our friends can’t dress up for Halloween? Probably not, the reason to this is either religious or personal beliefs (which are pretty much the same reason). Many of my friends who are Christian are forbidden to participate in this holiday because they believe that Halloween is a day to…

human powers. I believe it would be a lot of hard work, dedication, and a lot of responsibility. Think about this, you would have two lives to live as a completely different person. You would have to keep up good grades, make some money to live on, support your family in one life, then save people, fight crime, and kill villains in the other life. It would be way to overwhelming for me.      To fight crime, Peter needs a costume and a mask of some sort to hide his…

The picture I placed to the right is an example of one of the costumes that was on display in the store. There were nearby signs all around the store that served as a reminder that Halloween is approaching and majority of the signs had children on it themselves, for example, the costume in the picture on the right has a child who is wearing a Star Wars costume. The costumes in the store were geared towards children and marketers knew that the signs would grab attention by being surrounded by…

idea of taking a more liberal approach to the costume designs. She also wanted to put a modern spin on all aspects of the show (costuming included). In order to dress Amanda in a way that would fit this vision, I made her clothes classy, elegant, and a tad revealing, albeit cheaply made. All of her outfits are the less expensive knockoffs of upper class clothes. I drew inspiration from old Hollywood dresses, and then found pictures of what appears to be cheaper made versions. In the play, it is…

Masks have always been a important feature or the Venice Carnival. The very first documented sources regarding the masks goes all way back to the 13th century.Near the end of the Republic, the wearing of masks in daily life was severely restricted. By the 18th century, it was limited only to about three months from December 26. The masks were traditionally worn with decorative beads matching in colour. Early Venetian masks were very simple, and after Venice Carnival was abolished for nearly two…

Wearing a venetian carnival mask is a tradition for Italy. They would also wear it for other things and parties as well. They wore it to high their identities and their status. So people dont know who they are or even what they look llike. This had been a tradition for 7 years. 13th centuries would throw parties and they would have to wear these masks. They wanted to wear this because they didnt want anyone to know how they looked and what their status was. This tradition was in italy and…

injuries and deaths that all occur on this day because people don’t take extra precaution. Step 3: Budget The best things in life are free but that doesn’t mean you can’t indulge yourself for a special occasion. Budgeting for you night plays a huge role in your plans. You can’t go to a bar with only ten dollars in pocket but you don’t need to spend two hundred dollars for your time at home. Costumes (See step 4) can be a large expense along with meals and drinks so take the effort to save money…

I’m Nobody’s Puppet My parents had no problem changing the strings, makeup, and costumes whenever they forced me to dance as their puppet to entertain their audience. I had to be quiet and let them lead, smiling, speaking, and laughing on cue. They even strung the corners of my lips, stretching them wide and painful, censoring my emotions. I had two appearances in my puppeteer form: one as the perfect serene Indonesian Muslim, and the other a humble Peruvian Catholic. My parents were both…
