Halloween!

Wednesday October 31st 2007, Wake up time: 6:50am


I got up and got dressed up in my suit quickly. Ralph did my make up before I left, a lovely scar that went across my eye...just like Al Pacino's! It was very well done. I arrived at school, and I loved the excitement around and enjoyed seeing people's various costumes. Unfortunately, people were uncultured so many of them hadn't seen Scarface so they didn't recognise me :( It's okay, I had fun telling people! 


My first lesson was algebra which went okay! I then had a substitute for drama...so more fun with Mr. Kim! Aaron Aptaker, who was hilarious, told Mr Kim that he had an idea for a musical and he wanted Mr. Kim to star in it. Honestly, the funniest thing I've seen in a while! Mr. Kim actually sang and made up his own lyrics. It was about a homeless man who just wanted to be inside a house...it was very good quality, best I've ever seen, until that afternoon!


I then went to my history lesson where we studied the American war in the Philippines in their attempt to colonise it. I then had a psychology quiz, which had a bonus Red Sox question, which I was very glad to say I got right! It was lunchtime, and I had a delicious meal of mozzarella sticks, pizza and some milk. The day was going great! Lunch was greatly improved by the fact that four guys had got together to dress up as the Village People and even performed a dance to their song 'YMCA' in the canteen! 


I then went to gym class, but I was in no mood to work out! I just hung out with Julian and chatted. My last class was film, again with Mr Kim! We devised another musical, this one even better than the last! It was about a midget and a basketball player, both portrayed by Mr Kim to great effect. His improvised songs were what really made it. They argued and fought because they were such diverse heights, but it ended with them getting on beautifully! 


After school, I hung outside. I saw Tani for a little while and talked with her and saw more people and their fantastic costumes. I hung out in Sweet Sues, but went home soon after as most people had to get ready to go out that evening! I got home and played on Knights of the Old Republic for a little while. Trick or treaters began arriving around five pm...so much early than in England! Most were cute kids with their parents, but a couple were quite old! If I ran the country, kids over ten would not trick or treat! One group was ridiculous, it was two girls and they hadn't even dressed up! Yet they still expected candy...I gave them a little but told them they didn't bother. No word of a lie, they were back again in half n' hour. I said, "do you think I'm retarded?" I sent them away! 


Dinner was soon ready, a tasty dish of pork, broccoli and mash. There was some lemon cake for desert. I had been invited by Danielle to watch a horror film and hang out at her friend Fiona's. This may seem weird, but she had said I could go! I freshened up and Ralph dropped me off. I knocked on the door...and was greeted by Maggie from my literature class! She laughed at the confused expression on my face and explained she lived with Fiona. I laughed too and said I was just glad that I'd got the right place. I saw Andy, Danielle, Fiona, Hannie and Eugene. We spent the evening laughing, listening to music and watching Halloween H20 which is yet another sequel to the Halloween films about the killer Michael Myers. It's a pretty poor film but there are a couple of good bits and Jamie Lee Curtis makes it bearable. I always like the fact that the black guy survives, even though he, like all the other victims, gets stabbed about ten times. Lucky I guess ;) We had school the next day, so when the film was over we all headed to our separate homes and retired for the night! 


Thanks for listening.
