I've always liked Fall. I like the falling leaves and warm spice drinks and chilly air and nice sweaters and the generally spooky vibes. Fall is a good time for me. Nothing beats it, not even the summer. The most important part, though, is Halloween. Halloween cotumes, loads of spooky-themed candy, costume parties, scary movies, everthing about it was something I looked forward to all year. It's a tradition for my sister and I to make our Halloween costumes together and carve pumpkins - you know, the whole nine yards. Sometimes our dad would help, but usually it was just us and the dog outside. We would constantly be covered in some kind of paint or dye, whether it be fake blood, face paint, fabric paint, or some years even tea. (We got creative.) The costumes ended up being cool, …show more content…
I was hoping I'd figure it out when it was done, but I can tell you it isn't whatever this is." I shook my head and stood up to walk over to her splotchy monstrosity of a dress and considered it for a moment. "Could you dye the whole thing red?" "Just the entire thing? I guess..." She looked neither convinced nor impressed by my suggestion. "I don't want to, though. What would I do with a red dress? Maybe if I dyed it black?" The only problem with that was we didn't have all the dye in the world. we both kept looking at it, our hands on our hips. If there was an obvious answer, neither of us could think of it. It was at this moment, however, that Willie decided we were done wasting his time and trotted over to get our attention. His tail smacked over the black paint I had been using , which splattered up the dress from the bottom. We both gaped down at the paint, slowly oozing farther and farther up the dress. Brenn's shoulders sagged as the paint stopped after slanting its way to the chest of the dress. "Well . . ." She sighed, looking defeated. "What now? Do I start over?" "You could," I said, nodding along,"or you could find something better to do with
“You, ah, you might have spoken a word or two about blankets or bunnies, perhaps ones pink in color…”
"Everything except the wings around my face is red... I never looked good in red, it's not my colour."
Brianna spun around so the hem would flare out. “Yes, I made it myself with the sewing machine I bought from my share of the profits.”
She asked her if she hung the dress back up and she winked at her and said yes and then shushed her.
"I was just doing my best to make a joke. A very small joke. Besides, I do have a green shoulder sash, and could wear my sash around my neck, couldn't I?" I asked, still fixing its position.
There is nothing better than sitting on your front porch drinking warm apple cider while the wind whips at your cheeks, moments like this is why fall in my favorite season. I love watching the out the car window to see the brightly colored leaves gathered on the ground or the neighborhood kids sitting on their porch carving pumpkins. Fall leaves us with many activities to do in the chilly October air, like jump in piles of leaves or pick out pumpkins and the pumpkin patch. One of my favorite fall activities is picking apples. My family owns two apple trees that we pick every year. I always play a game with myself where I try to reach the highest apple on the trees. With our apples we usually make them into delicious treats or just eat them
i'm not walking out near naked like you are. besides, what's wrong with this dress?" the female spun in a circle delicately, the dark lace of the outfit billowing out around her as she did so. "don't get me wrong, cal. it's beautiful, honestly. it's just... a bit too wedding and not enough party." cally shook her head with a soft, annoyed sigh, falling face-first on the bed with a grimace, her golden hair fanning out around her. there was a long pause between the two, only the faint sound of metal clothes hangers scraping against the rack that she had in her closet filling the room. "this one. this is the one, cal, i swear!" it hadn't taken long for allison to find 'the one.' in fact, cal couldn't be bothered about it. the last six dresses she had selected had also held that title for a minute or so before they, too, were shot down, and besides, the blonde was already halfway back into her peaceful rest, her eyes fluttering closed. "last one, i promise!" cal forced herself up, shooting her friend a warning look as she took the outfit from her, gliding into the bathroom to
“Well, if you really want my opinion,” Ophelia sighed, shoving her hands in her dress’ pockets, “I do think you could at least spritz the things with some perfume.”
Halloween is derived from the Christian holiday All Hallows’ Eve, which is the day before the feast of All Hallows’ Day. This time is dedicated to mourning fallen saints and martyrs, or the dead in general. The practices of this could relate to other pagan rituals, particularly the Gaelic Samhain (All Hallows’ Eve). During both Samhain and All Hallows...
I have achieved many things in my life, but what I will always remember, is my failures. I have failed things in my life many times, but each time, I have been able to use my failure as a chance to improve and . Anyone who has been blessed with great success in life would be able to tell you the long list of failures and obstacles they had to overcome to get to where they are now. For me, my failures in the early years of high school, motivated me to fix my issues and get on the right track to succeed.
I’ve never really looked at our Halloween Festivities as a process. Going back through it now, I can see the importance of every detail and the reasoning behind it. I find it utterly amazing that our family has been able to continue these traditions, since moving here from Ireland so many years ago. How the generations of family members, whether how close, like living in the same town, or how far, like living out state, continue these traditions with their own families. Family traditions are extremely important. They mold us into the people we are and whether we realize it or not, we continue to honor our loved ones past by continuing on their traditions.
My favorite season of the year is summer because of the warm weather, the school vacation, and the endless fun. I really enjoy the warm weather because it’s the perfect atmosphere to do outdoor activities. My favorite part about summer has to be the fact that school is closed for two months. During summer, you’re free to do whatever you want, not worrying about curfew or waking up early for school. Summer time is a great time to relax with friends and family by soaking up the sun at a beach or simply having dinner together.
When September ends and October begins, there is one thing on everybody's mind: «Halloween ». Halloween is around 2,000 years old and first originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain; The Celts had rituals to avoid ghosts coming to haunt them, including dressing up in terrifying costumes to scare the ghosts and get together to party on the evening of October 31st. Nowadays, Halloween is one of the biggest holidays along with Christmas. From the beginning of October, people decorate their whole house in the colors of Halloween, wear entertaining costumes and, you can hear disguised children go from door to door to ask for treats as they shout "Trick or treat !". While it is a very a fun holiday
I never really thought about where my life was going. I always believed life took me where I wanted to go, I never thought that I was the one who took myself were I wanted to go. Once I entered high school I changed the way I thought. This is why I chose to go to college. I believe that college will give me the keys to unlock the doors of life. This way I can choose for myself where I go instead of someone choosing for me.
