| halloween was pretty fun! it really didn't have to be super cold and raining in the morning, though. more people should have dressed up. i was seriously dissapointed in the lack of halloween spirit. thank you to all of you CREATIVE PEOPLE who dressed up. it's too bad that it had to have been halloween, but it was really cool to see all these random guys in tux's because of the concert choir festival. it was so much fun to just look at everyone and be like 'oo that guy sings, that guy sings, that guy sings...' after school i packed overnight stuff for the church lock-in and then went to christiana and terrance's halloween party at jeff's house. we just sort of ate and hung around doing nothing for about half an hour until becky, jeff's mom, herded us all outside to trick-or-treat. i felt really bad because i was the only one with other plans that night, so we had to keep track of time so i was back by 8:20. highlights of trick-or-treating include 3 people stripping...haha i know, makes it sound like i hang with a bad crowd, but it wasn't really stripping stripping, christiana and sara just took off their skirts (but they had shorts under them) and terrance taking off his shirt) and a lady saying 'ooookkkayyy' and looking at jeff and charlie funny when they did their little trick-or-treating performance song/dance. it was hilarious. then i went to church for the lock-in. for the first hour or so i wished i had just stayed to watch whatever movie they ended up watching at jeff's house. we sort of just hung around and did nothing. around 11 or 11:30 we started watching the movie 'It'. it was pretty creepy...about a killer clown. the ending was really random and the entire second tape (it was in 2 tapes, 3.5 hrs long in total) made little sense. it was more amusing than nothing and chris, being the gentleman he is, offered to hold my hand when i got scared. haha. it was cute. in the middle of the two tapes, we found that george was asleep and decided to put our skeleton thing around him and make it look like they were cuddling and making out. we took like 5 pictures of him with the skeleton, one was a group shot of all of us laughing at them. that was fun. i spent the majority of saturday morning and afternoon in this closet room thing up on a ladder taping sheets of tinfoil on all of the walls. i don't think it was worth it for the effect. people weren't even in that room very long...it was kind of dissapointing. the haunted house went pretty well. we made 3 kids hysterically cry and about 4 (i wasn't counting) had to leave in the middle because they were too scared to finish it. although i don't really consider this a victory or something to be proud of, our youth group haunted house goal was to make kids cry, and we did, so as a whole we're happy. i don't know if i want to be a tour guide again next year, though, my voice was hurting sooo much after yelling 'run! run! the clowns are coming!' 10 times on each tour. today's church service was soooo lovely. it's all saint's day, so the choir sung a requem. we also hired an orchestra and they were REALLY good. well, they generall are, being professionals, but still... it was sooo nice. i could listen to music like that forever. well, i'm obviously tired because that was WAY more boring than usual. hope you all had a happy halloween!! i think i'm going to go take a nap... |

musicalbabe | Re:, 11-03-03 12:05am i didn't say that I wanted to make kids cry. i said that it was the youth group goal. (not my personal goal, though i must admit that it IS depressing when little kids come out of the haunted house saying 'that wasn't very scary'.

| Anonymous | 11-02-03 11:10pm you complain about people not dressing up but did you even dress up? |
musicalbabe | Re:, 11-03-03 12:11am yes, i dressed up!! i was little red ridinghood!! and if you didn't even see me, (which you would have if we had crossed paths, whoever you are) why would you just assume that i was being hypocritical? *sigh* well anyway, i dressed up. |
