Like most things we managed to drag out Halloween for as long as possible, it lasted for almost a week. Our first All Hallows Eve engagement was on the Saturday night. As I now am actually employed working at a film production company one of the girls invited us to her house party (super nice k thanks!) anyways we completely fucked our costumes due to three factors:
- My costume didn't arrive on time. Silly lady sent it on the slow service! But she gave me a refund so winning!
- We have no money
- You cannot sew bubble wrap
So due to the money constraint we decided to purchase a extremely large roll of bubble wrap, tape and velcro. We also purchased sewing things which we still have because well you cannot sew bubble wrap! Anyways the second thing which the bubble wrap did to screw us in the a-hole was be perforated every fricking 12cms! And didn't even say on the box!! So we had to tape every single square together. Thus resulting in a tape shortage. We then started to put on our costumes - bodies first then arms. IDOITS! So I put on LC's arms and she realised she did not have the same range of motion... Hence she couldn't help me with mine so I put on half of my legs and then we ran out of tape. Together we made 1 Zoltan. So we had about 30minutes of "OMGZ everyone will be super well dressed and we only have 1 costume BETWEEN us" "should we change into shitty costumes from our wardrobes" "lets flip a coin" (this may not be know yet but every single tuff decision LC and I have had to make on this trip has been decided by flipping coins).
So we decided to just own the fact we looked like shit. We also had to catch public transport in said conditoon - LC had no pants on HAHAHA - we said she was GaGa Zoltan. Anyways we took the rest of the roll of bubble wrap with us and once we arrived at ze house part-ay we wrapped it around us in the hallway resulting in this:
Nobody had any clue what we were but we were actually super popular because who doesn't enjoy popping bubble wrap!
Here are some examples of the other amazing costumes at the party:
I work with this girl - her name is Karley and she is American but the Canadians still like her. She is Medusa (people are super creative and always go as obscure things which takes us ages to figure out!)
The crazy person on the left is Emily - she also works with me. She is Canadian and super friendly she also has a Japanese Spitz - jealousy. The guy is some creepy person who remembers everyones name (he is a client) and is all ""OMGZZZ!2222!#&^$@#$ yr AUSTRALIAN! WTF!FUI#*&*%$""
This guy could have totes made a sweet Prof. Quirrel costume but I have no idea what he is.
I work with this guy too. His name is Eric, though it is now Erickson as he looks marginally like Marshall from HIMYM and is super tall.
Oh yeah and Emily totes decorated her house (Dry Ice!!! Co000ooL BeaNZ) and everyone brought loads of foods! This is one of Erickson's green Death "Jello" Shots. We had two. We died. There was like 250mL of vodka in 6 =| WFT MATE HOW DID THEY EVER SET!!! And everyone laughed at us when we called them Jelly Shots.
I think this is from the Zombie Walk. Emily also took bulk photos so I have scabbed some of hers to make this wayyyy better:
The girl with Karly is Abbey. I work with her too. She is Canadian as well as is from London, Ontario. She actually left her gun behind and Emily woke up with it in her bed the next day =|
Oh yeah the Food! This is like 1/2 of it. Abbey made rice crispies which is rice rubbles covered in melted marshmellows - so good. And a guy dresses as a ballerina made like 1000000000 hash brownies.
This guy played the sax all night it was amazeballs.
This is Emily's boyf Steve - check out his teeth ewwwwwwwwwww.
HAHAHA JERSEY SHORE. So good.
Anyways that was Halloween 1.
Enter Halloween 2 - the real Halloween Monday Night. At a Church! Obvs where else would you go???!
HP.
A Nerd. Those glasses made us trip balls, well curbs. Anyways the real reason we were in a Church is because they were giving away hot chocolate to trick-or-treat-ers aka US! Yeah we totes got loads of lollies (which everyone laughs at us saying that too, its CANDY DUH!) And one lady had this conversation with us:
"aren't you a little old??"
"this is our first Halloween"
"where have you been? under a rock"
"no in Australia"
Also there is a fully a formula to getting 'candy' - you only go to the houses with decorations.
Except!!! For this house. The guy had run out... on Saturday night! LOSER.
Also of these houses proved our theory:
Ahhhh yes and there is a Cadbury Factory across the road from us (like 200metres!!!) they have a haunted house and give away unlimited chocolate! But the line was super duper long so we just snuck in the back (obvs) and then got kicked out (obvs) but we saw heaps of AZNs stocking up for their shops literally shoveling it into their bags.
My loot of "CANDY"
Anyways so after some trick-or-treating we went to meet up with our only friend (apart from people I work with) Mitchell. He is also Canadian but he is from Newfoundland - they have their own timezone. He and his friends took us to the Church Street Block Party which is in the Gay Village, so the costumes where amazinggggggggg! Here are a few examples, though it was so packed and the people move so fast that some of the photos are a tad extremely shit, but I had to put them up because BEST COSTUMES EVER.
There was a bazillion GaGas.
HAHAHA Oh yeah LC fainted in Walmart. HAHAHAHA apart from the seriousness its actually the best thing that's happened in Toronto.
There was a massive group of Muppets!
OMGZ its alive Gaddafi!!! Priceless Costume.

This made LC cry.
Yeah we think this is a guy half way through his sex change. Awkward.
