Costumes

Hello!

Karen here, with a quick Halloween update. We've decided to have the first annual Haunted House Haunted House party this Halloween, in lieu of the treats that most of us have no use for (we're going to avoid tricks for the time being also, actually). I've done a quick poll of some of our friends to see what they are planning on going as, and here's what they told me, along with my own editorial comments:

Phoebe: A flapper (ooooh, pretty, I bet!)

Margi: Countess Bathory (Huh?)

Tommy: A zombie (jerk!)

Colette: "Evil Tinkerbell" (huh?)

Kevin: Rorschach (some sort of superhero, I guess)

Tak: (Stares sullenly, doesn't answer question)

Popeye: Pinhead (I won't tell you how he's making his "costume")

Tayshawn: Indiana Jones (Good for you!)

Adam: A zombie (big jerk!)

Sylvia: Hannah Montana

Melissa: Clown (Scary!)

Jacinta: "The Green Woman" (Not sure what this means, but apparently it involves wearing shrubbery)

Mal: Dumbledore (I can't wait!)

I was going to go as a "Traditionally Biotic Person" and dress in a way that I imagined would be incredibly ironic and funny, but A). I started to think it was a lame idea when Adam and Tommy shared their "ideas", and B). I kind of dress that way all the time, anyway.

So I need your help: What should my costume be?

What are you going as?

Ideas, people! (And please--don't tell me I should be a cheerleader!)

Bye sweeties!

Hmm...Well, I'm going to be a zombie cheerleader (no offense) I think you should go as something funny...or cute... I can't think of anything good enough though. Princess? Pop/rock star? Sorry I'm no help. but you are more than really awesome, so no matter what you go as, you will look really pretty :)Love ya, hun!

hi karen!!
I think you should be a vampire. Have you read the book twilight? the vampires in that book are extremely gorgeous, and i think you could pull that off excellently!! =]

Hi Cchvolleyball7,

No offense taken! But everyone has been telling me I should be a zombie cheerleader, so....I'm contrary. A princess could work...maybe the Ice Queen of Narnia?

Bye!
Karen

Karen DeSonne said...

Hi Jacy,

You're soooo sweet! I haven't read that book. And vampires are so, um, scary. I'm going to avoid scary this year.

Bye!
Karen

Somebody@ur-door said...

cheerleader, that was in a car accident or was beat by goths/emos....if i was going, i'd be a vamp... ;^)

Unheard Of said...

I think it would be totally cool if you were a vampire. you've got the pale skin, all you need are some freaky clothes and fangs. IT COULD SO WORK! YOU'D KNOCK EM DEAD!!! (pun so not intended, no offense either)

Hi Karen!

I'm going to be a tavern barmaid this year, and a friend of mine is going to be a vampire...a not scary one. I think you'd be a great vampire, since they're described as inhumanly beautiful, yet still human in a round about way of course. But if you would be a vampire the Twilight Vampire is a perfect chioce for the non-scary costume, as long as you're one of the family, I think you'd be a GREAT one, and all you'd have to do is dress up in some SUPER fancy clothes. or you could always be your favorite movie/tv show/book character..... hope this somewhat helped!!!!

mythologicalsweetheart said...

i think you should deff go as a vampire!! it would just be soo cool!!! and plus it would look amazing with you and everything!! i think your amazing and keep up on the updayes for us!!

Unknown said...

I'm going as willy wonka... and I'm a girl :)

I thought it was original. I don't know what you should be, though.

caseygirl913 said...

hahahaha im actually being a zombie cheerleader this year! i used to be a cheerleader a couple years ago and now i hate it, thus zombie cheerleader came to be!

Anonymous said...

You should go as the Burger King Man.

Little Vampire said...

Hey Karen, ok you should be a vampire that would be so awseome! for halloween i am being one i love vampires! plz go check out my site at http://xoxoloveandeath.blogspot.com/

Minx said...

wow, seems everyone is going as a zombie-cheerleader...perhaps I should re-think my costume.....
Nah! LOL!
Karen, you should totally go as the girl from I Dream of Genie! It would be totally awesome!!!

Bianca Wilde said...

LoL
I always love Tak's answers, they make me smile!
Mmm... I think you should be a disney princess, you can totally pull of the Sleeping Beauty look ;p
Gorgeous!
love love,
-Bee!

Myo said...

I think you should be Snow White because she is pretty, a princess, and her skin is as white as snow. Additionally, you can address Tommy, Adam, and the rest of the boys as your seven dorks ( opps...I meant dwarfs... lol). Good luck on your quest for the perfect costume!

i think you should go as a prom queen! i bet you would look really pretty in a prom dress!

Anonymous said...

heyy karen the vampires in twilight DONT EAT PPL (well, the CULLENS dont) but you could go as rosalie, that would be so perfect! or i guess you could go as like a rock star or something like that...

Anonymous said...

Hey Karen, thanks for writing back!
I think you would look really pretty as an ice queen of some sort...but wasn't the Narnia one evil? I haven't read it in a while though, so please correct me if im wrong. I finished Generation Dead last night. I LOVE that book! Love ya Karen,
Miranda

The Wanderer said...

Alo Karen!
I'ma be a doll this year. I bet you'd make a lovely Victorian Doll...or something of that nature.
Good luck!

Unheard Of said...

wasn't Elizabeth Bathory that countess who thought drinking blood would keep her young and beautiful forever? Margi's going to be her? they locked her in a tower to die.

sweet! why didn't I think of that!

Anonymous said...

This year, I'm going to be a zombie school girl. Maybe you could go as smurfett'.


=D

i love vampires and i'm inot the whole twilight thing, and like you're really cool, and you'd look look awesome as a vampire. :)

I was a zombie last year, I looked totally awesome. Yeah, I'm new to the Tommy's blog. Everyone's costumes sound great except for the people who are going as themselves. Lets be creative people! My friends and I are being the seven deadly sins. I'm Greed. Halloween is tomorrow, so to speak, and we are throwing a huge party.
So Happy Halloween!

HEY KAREN>>>>>
I agree with Jacy 100% the twilight vamps are the best things EVER... trust me i should know. The vamps aren't too scary...maybe you should go as...hmm..Dorothy from the wizard of oz. Or one of the Disney princess, like belle (OHHH THAT"D BE AWESOME!)

~The Real Werewolf

hotjsa;fhd said...

Well, this halloween I'm tottally going as a refridgarator! I made my costume out of a box and put alpabet magnetics all over it. It would be really sweet if you went as a ketcup bottle or maybe a Christmas present!!!! Whatever it is, just have fun! :D

Anonymous said...

i'm going to be a purple sparkly witch. =]] karen, you should be a cat. i'm not sure how to do that really, but everytime i think about the way u act, u remind me of a cat. anyway, good luck!

Anonymous said...

Adam and Tommy are party poopers!!!I am being a pyshico prom queen!!!Ummmm maybe you should dress like a vampire like jacy said... you could definately pull it off!!! luv you karen!!

kelsbug0424 said...

What is up with everyone being a freakin zombie cheerleader!?!?! Well I'm going as an angel It's a really pretty costume though. So there's an idea.


~Kelsey~

go with happiness said...

Maybe you could go as Little red Riding hood or something.

Taylin said...

i love the Disney Princess idea!! actually everyone's ideas are perfect. whatever you decide to go as, you will look absolutely beautiful. im going as Superwoman this year. my friends and i have a superhero theme =]

Bat Bike said...

Well alot of people are talking about going as a princess. A friend of mine who has REALLY pale skin went as an INDIAN princess last year. That'd be totally fawesome. She got a sari and everything. You'd look good whichever way though C:

Tommy Williams said...

The creativity from you folks continues to astound me.

And congrats to Meg. As soon as I passed your suggestion on to Karen she gasped and ran off to start work on her costume, so Jeannie it is.

She says she's going to get Tak to be "Master", but I don't believe it.

And Allison--please! There are kids on the board--please don't suggest anything as horrifying as the Burger King Man!

Happy Halloween,
T.

I dont know where else to post this but its sort of random!! Firstly I would like to say I LOOOVEEE this book, although I think that Pete should have died instead of Adam... how is Adam anyways??

Secondly, this book would make a really great movie, it would be so funn to see in the theater.

And Thirdly, Karen you sound gorgeous, from the description in the book... I totally agree a vampire would suit you very well:) Thats what I am going out tonite as anyways... the bar should be very exciting! Have funn sweetie:) <3<3

Anonymous said...

They all sound like wonderful costumes! Well, besides the zombie ones. Cheaters! ha ha. I'm going as someone from The Matrix. Ya know, black clothes, black trench coat, sunglasses...yea. My friends were going to do it with me, but they bailed. Oh well, too bad for them! I hope that you all have a great Halloween!

I just realized what Margi said she was going as. Countess Bathory?! Eww, she was like a real live vampire.

Anonymous said...

Erm, can I just say that 'Pipster' was wrong about Countess Bathory. She didn't drink blood, she bathed in the blood of virgins to stay young. And she wasn't locked in a tower. It was a suite of rooms that were bricked up.

Anonymous said...

well ik halloween has already past but haha im gonna tell yall who iw as anyways lol my bff sydnea went as Demi Lovato and i went as selena gomez lol it was so funny we wore like 6 inch heels and like were dying by the end but Karen i think you should have been something like cute or u should have been like Rosalie from the Twilight series u like fit her description perfectly lol oh well maybe next year or summin

Winter_Tears said...

WhittneyAnn said...

Vampire-Zombies said...

Anonymous said...

I think you should be....
an angel, because you are really sweet!!

BlackRose said...

Talk about being way belatted, but I want to participate (sorry for any misspelling) in the conversation. I think you should go as a marble statue. I have no idea how you would do the costume, but the ideas don't have to be realistic, right?!

soccrfrek1 said...

DerekszMate said...

Thiss isz extremely simple.
Go as a scary rocker-who-died-then-came-back-to-life !
its the total opposite of what you are !
You could get tips from Pheobe, and be a zombie rocker 4 halloween it'll be epic !

DerekszMate said...

Btw - Kevin's costume is a psychologist who developed the ink blot test . I've taken it a couple of times, and its kind of fun if a whole psychoanalyis doesn't depend on itt =)

Hey there Karen-

Lizzy G forever&always <3<3

Ocean Eyes said...

Yea, I know I'm late but maybe next you could go as a emo fairy. Thats what I did. Dye a streak of your hair some color(easy for us kuz we r blondes!), get a black mini skirt and a black cami or long sleeve shirt(short sleeve tees don't look good)and get some black sparkly fairy wings! good luck
