Happy Halloween!

Some friends attended a Halloween party tonight but I didn't join them. I had a small event to shoot during part of the evening, and I just came straight home afterwards to work on the photos. It's all good, I didn't have a costume anyways...

But I'll tell you guys about my most memorable Halloween...
It was Halloween 2004 in NYC.


Me and five other girl friends all dressed up in matching loud, pink outfits and strolled the streets of East Village just as the big parade ended. People kept doing double-takes and asking us what we were dressed up as. We probably looked like some bubblegum girl-band.  

As you can imagine, we got lots of attention that night (some was not-so-good, most was fun and harmless). It was just fun dressing up identically and making heads turn. Six girls dressed alike in hot pink certainly makes an impact! (We passed a group of young school girls in candy outfits, and even they got excited seeing us.) We even went up to some of NY's bravest (fire fighters) and finest (police  officers) and took pictures with them.... Why not? It's not everyday that they'd wanna take a picture with you. Then we went to some bar and saw some Wizard of Oz Dorothy's dancing on top of the bar counter. Haha!

Not only that, but the night before was a Saturday, so we had all gotten dressed up in our costumes and went club-hopping at 3 different clubs without paying or waiting! (That's usually unheard of in NYC unless you've got hookups.)

What a fun, crazy Halloween weekend... ah, the memories... :)

Are people dressing up for Halloween or celebrating at all? What's your costume?
