Halloween weeeeeeekend

My flatmates went crazy this weekend and I went along too but didn't really participate; I was more of a spectator. They went out Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, last night, and they're going out again today on SUNDAY. I went out of Friday and drank a bit (though not much because drinks are so expensive) and then last night I was a care-taker for Alex at Sugarhouse...ha.

Anyways, Halloween in the UK is big. My friends and I didn't dress up but the vast majority of people who were out were dressed up. Most of them dressed as Zombies. The thing about Halloween is, a lot of girls just use it to dress with as little clothing as possible and for some reason that passes as wearing a costume. Now, you have to realize that girls who live in England already wear very little clothing most of the time, so I wondered how this was going to work. Somehow they managed. Most of the girls last night were dressed as zombies, which basically meant that they painted their  face white, ratted their hair up, and (for some reason) wore the smallest clothes they could find and added strategically placed rips. Oh and 6-inch heels. But I suppose they achieved what they wanted because my friend Peter (Canadian) kept saying, "I love the women in this country!"

The real reason I wanted to write this blog wasn't to moan about the costumes, however. We met a girl in line last night who was the stereotypical posh Londoner. Her name (no joke) was Natalie Laura Tiffany Arnold. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT!? Also, she has a "holiday home" in Florida. She is from a really posh part of London and lived down the street from an actor who is in a show over here called "Skins" and who one of her friends used to date. Aaaand he's gorgeous... haha. She said she loved the USA, though, and started talking about the show "Super Sweet 16." I told her I hated that show and the girls on there annoyed me. She said "Wait, you guys aren't like that?" HA. I guess that's what exporting American TV does for our image in the US. She also kept asking me to teach her to talk like me, which I thought was hilarious.

Anyways, that's my little quip for the day.
