今年萬聖節終於來了!!!我可是期待蠻久的說,因為像我這麼愛搞怪的,當然最喜歡Halloween的到來囉!除了每年可以裝扮成不一樣的character在那邊裝肖維,到處討糖吃之外,還可以見識到很多不一樣的瘋子,哈!今年我行程排得蠻緊湊的說,在萬聖節之前我要首先把我手邊這堆deadline10/31的三大疊files先review完,不然我萬聖節當天就沒有辦法四處去晃,你就會看到我穿著奇裝異服躲在辦公室趕工...幸好我老闆很識相,讓我星期四晚上加班,我才有辦法把東西通通趕出來,所以星期五當天呢,我就可以have fun all day啦!!!
今年的裝扮是...Alice Wonderland裡面的Mad Hatter!!!本來還很擔心當天會很冷,幸好今年的天氣怪的不得了,都已經是秋天了,居然還可以給你有這種八十幾度的天氣,所以我算是幸運的啦~因為Mad Hatter的裙子如果是真的要在涼涼的秋天給他穿出來,我鐵定隔天會感冒滴...就像我前年扮Tinkerbell那樣,隔天就中獎了...T__T 早上開車上班的時候就已經引起很多人注意了,我想是因為你通常不會看到有人開車戴那麼大一頂帽子,嘻!有路人走過過我的車車還給我比大拇指,"Your costume rocks!" Yeah, I know, otherwise, I won't buy it. Hehe...不過這帽子還真麻煩,我本人不是很喜歡戴帽子滴,除非是很冷的天氣,或是去滑snowboard(說到這個,很久沒有去冰天雪地的地方了耶,誰來組團一下阿?),所以好幾次我都很想把帽子拿掉,問題是,帽子是整套服裝的重點阿,要是拿掉的話,人家很難猜出來我是什麼角色...我偷拿下來一陣子,就被人家猜說我是不是Irish阿?居然還有猜我是leprecon??!!要死了阿,leprecon很矮好不好? 我踩著四吋高的鞋子居然還被說是leprecon...有沒有搞錯阿...所以我還是硬把帽子戴著好了,免得誤導! Halloween那天活動從校園的西邊開始逛起,發現我怎麼每個辦公室都有認識的?一棟building晃過一棟,一間辦公室拜訪過一間,everyone loves my costume!!!我晃進去law school的時候引起最大轟動,"OMG!!! You look so cute!!!" "Can I take a picture of you?" "One more! One more! I want the whole body shot!" "Can I take a picture with you?"阿~~當rock star的感覺真好!!哇哈哈哈~~~中午跟Art Dept的朋友一起去慶祝Joe的生日,選在靠近Little Italy的一家英國式Pub,大中午的,大家居然就在喝啤酒了...只有我一個的杯子裡裝的液體是沒有顏色的...這些人實在是...給Joe的生日卡片很特別,我們做了一個木箱,大家各拿一張便條紙寫下生日祝福,然後塞進木箱裡面,we had Joe picking up notes and read it out loud; that was a lot of fun! People love my note the most 'cuz my note was wild!!! Hahahaha...after I took a long lunch,心不甘情不願的回到辦公室去,實在沒有什麼心情上班,但還是乖乖的回了幾封e-mails然後又開始我的afternoon trick or treat round...這一次晃到校園的東邊去...其實如果不是我穿這四吋高跟鞋的話,我應該一個早上就可以把整個校園都visit完畢,問題這鞋子太高了,我只好慢慢走...本來從我辦公室到對面的building只要五分鐘的路程,可以給我走成15 minutes...I had to walked like a real lady in slow motion...
五點一下班,我就跟幾個朋友晃到downtown去提前慶祝一個朋友的生日,鎖定要吃不一樣的sushi,所以我們決定要往Sushi RA進攻~~ Sushi RA的當天的氣氛不錯,裡面大部分的員工都有扮成其他的角色,所以光是吃個飯,也可以大飽眼福,到的時候剛好還正值Happy Hour,Oh, My! Even better! Special Sushi Roll & drinks are half price!!! 我很乖喔,我倒是沒有點酒,即使朋友們一直慫恿,我還是說不, are you kidding me? Do you see how many cops are out there on the street? It's like two at every corner!!!其實我也吃不太下,因為中午在Pub吃的飽飽的...不過雖然說吃不下,我三個人還是點了兩個前菜--chicken yakitori跟pineapple cheese wontons還有四盤sushi:Viva Las Vegas, tootsy maki, crunchy calamari roll, mango lobster roll... 真的是好多飯喔...我大概每一種口味都吃兩個我就飽了...芒果龍蝦那一個甜甜的還不錯,味道很不一樣,但是夾的時候要很小心,因為旁邊點綴了一大多wasabi醬汁,我不小心夾掉了一個剛好落在wasabi上面,很慘絕得叫了一聲"Ahh!"把我兩個朋友嚇一跳,"What the heck? What's going on?""My sushi got the wasabi..."我朋友馬上夾一個放到我盤子裡"Ok, look, here is one without wasabi, are we all good now? See, mama takes good care of you, so no need to yell." ;P 晚餐吃的有點太飽...大家決定要不乾脆就在downtown走一圈吧,消耗消耗卡路里,也好,應該會可以看到很多有趣的costume,一路上一大堆小紅帽跟大野狼,還有足球員跟Referee,外星人也很多,看得我眼花撩亂的,最cool的大概要算是Michael Jackson的thriller costume跟一個很有型的吸血鬼!
走著走著一個路人還跟我報說there is a block party at 6th & Island, 我們就往那個方向晃過去看看,G!人潮超多的!!!想說免費停車的時間快要超過了,只好回頭往停車場走,明年吧!朋友說明年他生日的時候就在那邊過~Oh, yeah, that should be fun!!!要離開downtown的時候碰上塞車,等我開出市區時候已經快要十點半了,接下來還要去Joe晚上的costume party,我實在走的有點累,說真的,I think my feet gave up on me,大家是約Whistle Stop Bar前面等的,我提早到了但是實在沒有力氣繼續站著,就所幸坐在車裡等...結果Joe說他們還要再三十多分鐘才會準備好裝扮,哇勒...那我就回家吧,你們繼續rock on;回到家馬上把鞋子脫了,OMG, felt so good...我差不多是邊卸妝邊睡覺,ㄎㄎㄎ~邊想,this is such a crazy day,好像college life重新來過一樣~
今天早上十一點半多起床的時候才發現--a layer of skin peeled off from my toes!!!吼,還流湯了勒,我居然走了一天都沒有感覺~很勇敢的塗上蘆薈膏後,痛的like a mofu...Dang!然後匆忙裹上bandage後我趕去吃人家的birthday brunch...我也不知道我是怎麼開到目的地的'cuz I was really speely still...I think I even sleep-eating through out the whole brunch!!!真是佩服我自己...記得高中的時候也做過這種sleep-eating的事情,那一次才誇張的勒,真的是吃到一半睡著了還被朋友搖醒叫我再多吃一點,呵呵呵~明天要跟柳兒一起去我們家附近的The Cottage吃brunch慶祝她的生日,真忙哩...although I was tired as heck, but I had lots of fun!!! I LOVE Halloween!!! Can't wait for next year囉~ㄟ,不曉得其他人的Halloween weekend過的怎麼樣呢?

At the Shakespeare Pub & Grille; I am not sure what's going on in this picture...沒錯!這一群藝術家騙我說他們會穿costume來吃午餐,結果只有我一個人showed up with costume...一走進去還被大家"哇"了一大下,so I said,"Ok, for the record, I am not the birthday entertainer!"
