so i've heard a lot recently how halloween is "the single person's new year's" and i wasn't sure i bought into it. sure, last year i had had a more exciting and fun halloween then i had in years, but that didn't mean i wouldn't have just as much fun as last year this time around.
as many know, halloween is a time when girls can dress up as whatever, scandalous (see above) or not, and no one really says anything (except for maybe the girls' mothers). i suppose that is part of the fun of halloween. no judgement. also, upholding the thought that halloween is the single's new year's, are tales of rampant hook-ups on halloween. i've never really been one for the random halloween hook-up myself. but, to each his own. where there are parties and drinking, it is bound to happen.
despite all these thoughts, i never really thought of halloween that way. that is, until this year. don't get me wrong. i had a lot of fun going out to a few parties this weekend. but, it was definitely different than last year. first clue, when i was thinking i'd just wear my costume from last year since i couldn't find anything on friday night, the argentinian was not too keen on the idea. he agreed with my mother about the costume (please note it wasn't as bad as the one pictured above or anything). pressed for time, i ended up going in a costume i was less than thrilled with. but at least i was able to pull something together more decent by the next night's round of parties. also, going to halloween parties with your boyfriend or girlfriend just has a different feel. you're not one of the single's running around in your skimpy little costume, flirting with the cute boys. you're the one who found a costume that can incorporate a jacket so you don't freeze to death, cause you know you have someone to make out with no matter how you are dressed.
